Provide a real-world situation in which it would be appropriate to use an arithmetic sequence or series. Be sure to explain why a series or a sequence is more appropriate.

The vertex of this parabola is at (-2,-3). when the x-value is -1, the y-value is -5. what is the coefficient of the squared expression in the parabola's equation?

Atextile fiber manufacturer is investigating a new drapery yarn, which the company claims has a mean thread elongation of 12 kilograms with a standard deviation of 0.5 kilograms. the company wishes to test the hypothesis upper h subscript 0 baseline colon mu equals 12 against upper h subscript 1 baseline colon mu less-than 12 using a random sample of n equals 4 specimens. calculate the p-value if the observed statistic is x overbar equals 11.8. round your final answer to five decimal places (e.g. 98.76543).

Find the ratios of the corresponding sides
