Answer: 2.54
Step-by-step explanation:
Simply substitute the value of
3
given. In other words,
f
(
3
)
is the function of
f
(
x
)
, however, in this case,
x
is
3
f
(
3
)
=
3
(
3
)
−
4
Distribute
3
through the parenthesis
f
(
3
)
=
9
−
4
Simplify
f
(
3
)
=
5
Miles per minute or miles per hour depending on how you did it.
Answer: 912
===================================
Work Shown:
The starting term is a1 = 3. The common difference is d = 5 (since we add 5 to each term to get the next term). The nth term formula is
an = a1+d(n-1)
an = 3+5(n-1)
an = 3+5n-5
an = 5n-2
Plug n = 19 into the formula to find the 19th term
an = 5n-2
a19 = 5*19-2
a19 = 95-2
a19 = 93
Add the first and nineteenth terms (a1 = 3 and a19 = 93) to get a1+a19 = 3+93 = 96
Multiply this by n/2 = 19/2 = 9.5 to get the final answer
96*9.5 = 912
I used the formula
Sn = (n/2)*(a1 + an)
where you add the first term (a1) to the nth term (an), then multiply by n/2
-----------------
As a check, here are the 19 terms listed out and added up. We get 912 like expected.
3+8+13+18 +23+28+33+38 +43+48+53+58 +63+68+73+78 +83+88+93 = 912
There are 19 values being added up in that equation above. I used spaces to help group the values (groups of four; except the last group which is 3 values) so it's a bit more readable.
Answer:
1 - If method I is used, population of generalization will include all those people who may have varying exercising habits or routines. They may or may not have a regular excersing habit. In his case sample is taken from a more diverse population
2 - Population of generalization will include people who will have similar excersing routines and habits if method II is used since sample is choosen from a specific population
Step-by-step explanation:
Past excercising habits may affect the change in intensity to a targeted excersise in different manner. So in method I a greater diversity is included and result of excersing with or without a trainer will account for greater number of variables than method II.
