The Attempt at a Solution



From what I gather, we can use the sample range, which is the max minus the min, or the average moving range which is the sum of the preceding value minus the current value divided by the number of moving ranges.

For the equations mentioned above, can we use anyone of them or can we just use the average of moving ranges?

What does R stand for, average moving ranges or sample range or both?

Yer equation don't like right.
 
There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
