The blue whale is the largest animal living on the earth. the average blue whale measures 100 feet long (30 meters) and weighs 300,000 pounds (136,000 kilograms). a whale’s head is 1⁄3 of the length of its body. a new baby whale is 1⁄4 the length of a grown whale. the average man is 1⁄17 the length of a blue whale, and 1⁄1,818 its weight. a human baby measures 1⁄4 of the length of an adult. calculate the following information: how long is a whale’s head? how long is a new baby whale? how tall is the average man? how much does the average man weigh? how tall is the average human baby?

What is the explicit formula for this sequence? -7, -4, -1, 2, a.) an = 8 + (b - 1)3 b.) an = -7 + (n - 1)3 c.) an = 3 + (n -1) (-7) d.) an = -7 + (n - )

As voters exit the polls, you ask a representative random sample of voters if they voted for a proposition. if the true percentage of voters who vote for the proposition is 63%, what is the probability that, in your sample, exactly 5 do not voted for the proposition before 2 voted for the proposition? the probability is
