DESPERATE for help with Python for beginners (10 points for best answer!)?
I am taking a beginners class on Python, and have no clue how to do this problem. I have tried many times, but can't seem to get it. If you could write the code out so I can understand it, that would be awesome. Here is the question:
1. You are given a arbitrary numerical sequence that has the form 0, 1, 1, 3, 5, 11, 21,.... Each successive number, after the first two, is found by adding the number before it with two times the number two slots before it. For example, the 5th number in the sequence is (3)+day (1*2)=5 and the sixth number is (5)+(3*2)=11. Your goal is to write a loop that computes 30 terms in the sequence. Store this sequence as a list and then print the list. You should get the following output:
[0, 1, 1, 3, 5, 11, 21, 43, 85, 171, 341, 683, 1365, 2731, 5461, 10923, 21845, 43691, 87381, 174763, 349525, 699051, 1398101, 2796203, 5592405, 11184811, 22369621, 44739243, 89478485, 178956971]
The second question is:
Once you have you list of this sequence of numbers, use this list to calculate a new list of the ratios the current number in the list divided by the next number in the list. In other words, each number in the ratio list will be the number in your original list divided by the next number in your original list. Print the values of your ratio list.
Thanks so much for the help!

Body mass index (BMI) is a value derived from the mass and height of a person. The BMI is defined as the body mass divided by the square of the body height, and is commonly expressed in units of kg/m^2. The BMI is a convenient rule of thumb used to broadly categorize a person as underweight, normal weight, overweight, or obese based on tissue mass (muscle, fat, and bone) and height. This categorization is often debated an generally viewed as reasonable for population studies and inappropriate for individual evaluation.
In a mini study, data was collected on 8 subjects in Spain with the measurements in order for each subject of:
weights = [70, 75, 60, 30, 65, 80, 85, 100] kilograms (kg)
heights = [1.7, 1.8, 1.5, 1.42, 1.75, 1.8,1.85, 1.65] meters (m)
In other words, the first subject has a weight of 70 kg and a height of 1.7 m.
Print the BMI of these 8 subjects Make a list of the weights and a list of the heights, then loop through the lists to calculate and print the BMI of each subject in a sentence. For example, the
BMI of subject 1 is 24.2 kg/m^2.
BMI of subject 2 is 23.1 kg/m^2.
I have no idea how to do this. I learned how to do this using a 'for' loop, but I am completely lost after trying this many times. Thank you!
Homework Help1 year agoDESPERATE for Stats homework help (10 points for best answer)!?
The supervisor of a production line believes that the average time to assemble an electronic component is 17 minutes. Assume that assembly time is normally distributed with a standard deviation of 3.8 minutes. The supervisor times the assembly of 20 components, and finds that the average time for completion was 17.85 minutes. Is there evidence that the average amount of time required to assemble a component is something other than 17 minutes?

I just need to make sure all my grammar is correct (conjugations, agreement, etc). Thanks!!
D’abord, Bennett est très amusant et il n’est pas sensible. Bennett est plus bavard que moi. Je ne parle jamais, mais il parle tout le temps. Par exemple, quand nous rencontrons une nouvelle personne, je suis plus timide que Bennett et il parle avec la personne. Je pense que Bennett est le plus bavard que je connaisse. Il est intelligent aussi; il aime la chimie et il parle l’espagnol couramment.
Deuxièmement, Bennett est très têtu. Il se dispute beaucoup et il l’aime. Par exemple, il aime les politiques, mais s’il y une personne que n’est pas d’accord avec son opinion, il se fâche et son opinion ne changera pas. Parfois, il est étourdi aussi. De temps en temps, il est tard pour les cours parce qu’il oublie à quelle heure ses cours commencent. Finalement, Bennett est plus radin que moi. Il garde son argent et je ne le garde pas. Il dépense l’argent rarement.
Enfin, Bennett est grand et musclé. Il a des cheveux bouclés et plus noires que moi et les yeux verts. De temps en temps, il a une barb quand il ne se rase pas parce qu’il est poilu. Il a aussi des sourcils mates et la peau blanche. Beaucoup de personnes pensent qu’il est méditerranée ou italien, mais il est allemand.
En conclusion, je m’entend bien avec Bennett. Je pense que c’est parce que nous sommes opposés. Nous aimons et n’aimons pas les mêmes choses. Il a été mon meilleur ami depuis le lycée.
