Answer: dg represents Decigram.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given symbol dg.

We need to explain the meaning of dg.

Please note dg is the combination of two values d and g.

d represents deci and g represents gram.

The value of deci is one tenth of any quantity.

That is 1/10.

Therefore, dg represents decigrams.

1 decigram is equal to 1/10 of a gram.

<h3>Therefore, correct answer is decigram.</h3>

kiruha [24]

There's 12 months in a year so if the value decreases by 6% each year that would be 6 ÷ 12 which is 0.5%. Therefore the decay each month is -0.5%.

A yogurt company claims that it prints a free yogurt coupon under a randomly selected 20% of its lids. A loyal customer purchase

Alona [7]

Answer:

The customer can conclude that the company's claim is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

The percentage of lids that has a free yogurt coupon = 20%

The number of cups a loyal customer purchases = 85 yogurt cups

The number of cups that contained a coupon = 12 (14.1%)

The confidence interval performed = 99% confidence interval for the proportion of yogurt cups containing coupon codes

The interval obtained = (0.044, 0.238)

Therefore, the range of proportion within which the true proportion exists is 0.044 < $\hat p$ < 0.238

The range of percentage within which the true percentage exist is therefore;

0.044 × 100 = 4.4% < $\hat p$ × 100 < 0.238 × 100 = 23.8%

Given that the possible true percentage of lids that has a coupon is between 4.4% and 23.8% at 99% confidence level, the customer can conclude that only 12 of his yogurt cup contained coupon by chance and that the company's claim is correct.

The sum of first three terms of a finite geometric series is -7/10 and their product is -1/125. [Hint: Use a/r, a, and ar to rep

Alchen [17]

Ooh, fun

geometric sequences can be represented as
$a_n=a(r)^{n-1}$
so the first 3 terms are
$a_1=a$
$a_2=a(r)$
$a_2=a(r)^2$

the sum is -7/10
$\frac{-7}{10}=a+ar+ar^2$
and their product is -1/125
$\frac{-1}{125}=(a)(ar)(ar^2)=a^3r^3=(ar)^3$

from the 2nd equation we can take the cube root of both sides to get
$\frac{-1}{5}=ar$
note that a=ar/r and ar²=(ar)r
so now rewrite 1st equation as
$\frac{-7}{10}=\frac{ar}{r}+ar+(ar)r$
subsituting -1/5 for ar
$\frac{-7}{10}=\frac{\frac{-1}{5}}{r}+\frac{-1}{5}+(\frac{-1}{5})r$
which simplifies to
$\frac{-7}{10}=\frac{-1}{5r}+\frac{-1}{5}+\frac{-r}{5}$
multiply both sides by 10r
-7r=-2-2r-2r²
add (2r²+2r+2) to both sides
2r²-5r+2=0
solve using quadratic formula
for $ax^2+bx+c=0$
$x=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$
so
for 2r²-5r+2=0
a=2
b=-5
c=2

$r=\frac{-(-5) \pm \sqrt{(-5)^2-4(2)(2)}}{2(2)}$
$r=\frac{5 \pm \sqrt{25-16}}{4}$
$r=\frac{5 \pm \sqrt{9}}{4}$
$r=\frac{5 \pm 3}{4}$
so
$r=\frac{5+3}{4}=\frac{8}{4}=2$ or $r=\frac{5-3}{4}=\frac{2}{4}=\frac{1}{2}$

use them to solve for the value of a
$\frac{-1}{5}=ar$
$\frac{-1}{5r}=a$
try for r=2 and 1/2
$a=\frac{-1}{10}$ or $a=\frac{-2}{5}$

test each
for a=-1/10 and r=2
a+ar+ar²= $\frac{-1}{10}+\frac{-2}{10}+\frac{-4}{10}=\frac{-7}{10}$
it works

for a=-2/5 and r=1/2
a+ar+ar²= $\frac{-2}{5}+\frac{-1}{5}+\frac{-1}{10}=\frac{-7}{10}$
it works

both have the same terms but one is simplified

the 3 numbers are $\frac{-2}{5}$ , $\frac{-1}{5}$ , and $\frac{-1}{10}$
