Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
to find a term in the sequence multiply the previous term by r , then
a₄ = - 8 , so
a₅ = - 8 × 0.5 = - 4
a₆ = - 4 × 0.5 = - 2
The sixth term of the sequence will be negative 2. Then the correct option is D.
What is a geometric sequence?Let a₁ be the first term and r be the common ratio.
Then the nth term of the geometric sequence is given as,
aₙ = a₁ · (r)ⁿ⁻¹
The fourth term (a₄) is negative 8 and the common ratio is 0.5.
Then the sixth term will be
For n = 5, we have
a₅ = a₁ · (r)⁵⁻¹
a₅ = a₁ · (r)⁴
a₅ = a₁ · r³ · r
a₅ = a₄ · r
a₅ = -8 · 0.5
a₅ = -4
Then the sixth term of the sequence will be
a₆ = a₁ · (r)⁶⁻¹
a₆ = a₁ · (r)⁵
a₆ = a₁ · r⁴ · r
a₆ = a₅ · r
a₆ = -4 · 0.5
a₆ = -2
The sixth term of the sequence will be negative 2.
Then the correct option is D.

A rectangle has a width that is 5 feet less than the length. The area of the rectangle is 126 square feet. Find the dimensions of the rectangle
Given:
A rectangle has a width that is 5 feet less than the length. The area of the rectangle is 126 square feet[tex]\\[/tex]
❍Let's assume, Length of rectangle x feet and width of the rectangle x - 5 feet respectively.
[tex]\\[/tex]
To calculate the dimensions of the rectangle we will use the formula of Area of rectangle:
[tex]\\[/tex]
[tex] \: \: \: \: \: \: \: { \underline{ \boxed{ \pmb{ \frak{ Area_{(rectangle)} = Length \times width }}}}} \\ \\ [/tex]
[tex]\\[/tex]
[tex] \underline {\sf{Substituting \: the \: values~ in~ above~formula: }} \\ [/tex]
[tex]\\[/tex]
[tex] : \implies \sf \:x \times (x - 5) = 126 \\ \\ \\ : \implies \sf \:x^2 - 5x = 126 \\ \\ \\ : \implies \sf \:x^2 - 5x - 126 = 0 \\ \\ \\ : \implies \sf \:x^2 - 14x - 9x - 126 = 0 \\ \\ \\ : \implies \sf \:x (x - 14) - 9 (x + 14) = 0 \\ \\ \\ : \implies \sf \:(x - 14)(x - 9) = 0 \\ \\ \\ : \implies { \boxed { \purple{\pmb { \: x = 14 \: \: or \: \: x = -9}}} } \\ \\ \\ [/tex]
We know that side can't be negative. So, x = 14 feetHence,
Width of rectangle = x - 5 = 9 feetLength of rectangle = x = 14 feet[tex]\\[/tex]
[tex] \\ { \underline{ \pmb{ \frak{\therefore Dimensions \: of \: rectangle \: are \: 9~ feet \: and \: 14 ~feet \: }}}}[/tex]
Given that, width of the rectangle is 5 feet less than the length and area of the rectangle is 126 sq. feet, and we are told to find the dimensions i.e the length and width of the rectangle.
As we know that the area of a rectangle is length times it's width, so if we assume our length to be x, so our width is just going to be (x - 5) , and putting it in the area formule we can thus obtain;
[tex]{:\implies \quad \sf x(x-5)=126}[/tex]
[tex]{:\implies \quad \sf x^{2}-5x-126=0}[/tex]
[tex]{:\implies \quad \sf x^{2}-14x+9x-126=0}[/tex]
[tex]{:\implies \quad \sf x(x-14)+9(x-14)=0}[/tex]
[tex]{:\implies \quad \sf (x-14)(x+9)=0}[/tex]
So, here either (x - 14) = 0 or (x + 9) = 0, when you equate both, you will get x = 14 or -9 but as x ≠ -9, so x = 14, and then x - 5 = 14 - 5 = 9
Hence, the required length and width are 14 feet and 9 feet respectively
A hole-punch machine is set to punch a hole 1. 84 centimeters in diameter in a strip of sheet metal in a manufacturing process. The strip of metal is then creased and sent on to the next phase of production, where a metal rod is slipped through the hole. It is important that the hole be punched to the specified diameter of 1. 84 cm. To test punching accuracy, technicians have randomly sampled 12 punched holes and measured the diameters. The data (in centimeters) follow. Use an alpha of. 10 to determine whether the holes are being punched an average of 1. 84 centimeters. Assume the punched holes are normally distributed in the population. 1. 81 1. 89 1. 86 1. 83 1. 85 1. 82 1. 87 1. 85 1. 84 1. 86 1. 88 1. 85
Using the t-distribution, as we have the standard deviation for the sample, it is found that it can be concluded that the holes are being punched an average of 1. 84 cm.
What are the hypotheses tested?At the null hypotheses, it is tested if the mean is of 1.84 cm, that is:
[tex]H_0: \mu = 1.84[/tex]
At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if the mean is different of 1.84 cm, that is:
[tex]H_1: \mu \neq 1.84[/tex]
What is the test statistic?The test statistic is given by:
[tex]t = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
The parameters are:
[tex]\overline{x}[/tex] is the sample mean.[tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis.s is the standard deviation of the sample.n is the sample size.Considering the hypothesis and the given sample, it is found that the parameters are as follows:
[tex]\overline{x} = 1.85, \mu = 1.84, s = 0.0235, n = 12[/tex].
Hence, the test statistic is given by:
[tex]t = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
[tex]t = \frac{1.85 - 1.84}{\frac{0.0235}{\sqrt{12}}}[/tex]
[tex]t = 1.47[/tex]
What is the decision?Considering a two-tailed test, as we are testing if the mean is different of a value, with a significance level of 0.1 and 12 - 1 = 11 df, the critical value is of [tex]|t^{\ast}| = 1.7959[/tex]
Since the absolute value of the test statistic is less than the critical value, we do not reject the null hypothesis and it can be concluded that the holes are being punched an average of 1. 84 cm.

x - 3y = 4
2x - 5y = 8
solve by substitution
Answer:
y = 0
x = 4
Explanation:
x - 3y = 42x - 5y = 8make x the subject,
x - 3y = 4
x = 4 + 3y __ equation 1
2x - 5y = 8
x = (8+5y)/2 __ equation 2
using substitution method:
(8+5y)/2 = 4 + 3y
8 + 5y = 8 + 6y
6y - 5y = 8 - 8
y = 0
Find x,
x = 4 + 3y
x = 4 + 3(0)
x = 4
Answer:
x = 4
y = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1. Pick one equation and rewrite in the form of x= OR y=x - 3y = 4 (original)
x = 4 + 3y (rewritten)
Step 2. Substitute for x in the other equation2x -5y = 8 (second equation)
2(4 + 3y) - 5y = 8 (substitute 4 + 3y for x)
Step 3. Solve for the unknown variable, y2(4 + 3y) - 5y = 8 (distribute)
8 + 6y - 5y = 8 (combine like terms)
y = 0 (first variable)
Step 4. Find x by plugging y into an equationx - 3y = 4 (original)
x - 3(0) = 4 (substitute 0 for y)
x = 4 (second variable)
FINAL SOLUTION: x = 4, y = 0You can double check this by plugging these numbers back into each equation; x = 4 and y = 0 is true for both.

Answer:
x is 19.5 degress
Step-by-step explanation:
hmmm so here oh i see now okay:
since a line is 180 degress lets write
2x + 82.5 + 3x = 180
now we umm add the ones with the same variable and power
5x + 82.5 = 180
5x = 180 - 82.5
5x = 97.5
x = 19.5
This is an angle on a straight line and It is equal to 180°
2x° + 3x° + 82.5° = 180°
5x° = 180° - 82.5°
5x = 97.5°
x = 19.5°
To indicate the angle
2x => 2(19.5°) => 39°
3x => 3(19.5°) => 58.5°
The angle are (39°, 82.5°, 58.5°

Answer:
A tangent to a circle is a straight line which touches the circle at only one point. Therefore, if [tex]x=2y+5[/tex] is a tangent of [tex]x^2+y^2=5[/tex] then there will be one point of intersection.
To find the point of intersection, substitute [tex]x=2y+5[/tex] into [tex]x^2+y^2=5[/tex] and solve for y:
[tex]\implies (2y+5)^2+y^2=5[/tex]
[tex]\implies 4y^2+20y+25+y^2=5[/tex]
[tex]\implies 5y^2+20y+20=0[/tex]
[tex]\implies y^2+4y+4=0[/tex]
[tex]\implies (y+2)^2=0[/tex]
[tex]\implies y+2=0[/tex]
[tex]\implies y=-2[/tex]
Substitute found value of y into [tex]x=2y+5[/tex] and solve for x:
[tex]\implies x=2(-2)+5=1[/tex]
Therefore, there is one point of intersection at (1, -2), thus proving that the straight line equation is a tangent to the circle.
A research firm has determined that 80% of telephone
respondents will agree to answer an opinion poll. If 20
people are contacted, what is the probability that exactly 14
people agree to be polled?
The probability that out of 20, 14 agree to answer is:
P(14) = 0.109
How to find the probability?
We know that the 80% of the respondents will agree to answer the opinion poll (and 20% don't).
Then the probability that a random respondent agrees to answer the poll is 0.8
Now, the probability that out of 20, 14 agree to answer, is:
[tex]P(14) = C(20, 14)*(0.8)^{14}*(0.2)^6[/tex]
Where C(20, 14) is the number of different combinations of 14 elements that we can make out of the 20 elements (the number of permutations).
[tex]C(20, 14) = \frac{20!}{(20 - 14)!*14!} = \frac{20*19*18*17*16*15}{6*5*4*3*2} = 38,760[/tex]
Replacing that in the probability, we get:
