Compute [tex]i+i^2+i^3+\cdots+i^{258}+i^{259}[/tex].

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that [tex]i+i^2+i^3+i^4 = i-1-i+1 = 0[/tex], and this means that every 4 terms, the terms cancel to 0. Therefore, by taking modulo 4, we only need to find [tex]i^{257}+i^{258}+i^{259} = i-1-i = -1[/tex] since $i$ has a cycle of 4.

Answer 2

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Alternate terms have a sum of zero:

  i^n +i^(n+2) = (i^n)(1 +i^2) = (i^n)(1 -1) = 0

So, the sum to i^256 is zero, and i^257 +i^259 = 0. The value of the sum is then i^258 = i^(258 mod 4) = i^2 = -1

The given expression evaluates to -1.

According to the National Association of Theater Owners, the average price for a movie in the United States in 2012 was $7.96. Assume the population st. dev. is $0.50 and that a sample of 30 theaters was randomly selected. What is the probability that the sample mean will be between $7.75 and $8.20

Answers

Answer:

0.985 = 98.5% probability that the sample mean will be between $7.75 and $8.20.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

The average price for a movie in the United States in 2012 was $7.96. Assume the population st. dev. is $0.50.

This means that [tex]\mu = 7.96, \sigma = 0.5[/tex]

Sample of 30:

This means that [tex]n = 30, s = \frac{0.5}{\sqrt{30}}[/tex]

What is the probability that the sample mean will be between $7.75 and $8.20?

This is the p-value of Z when X = 8.2 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 7.75.

X = 8.2

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{8.2 - 7.96}{\frac{0.5}{\sqrt{30}}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.63[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.63[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9957

X = 7.75

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{7.75 - 7.96}{\frac{0.5}{\sqrt{30}}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.3[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.3[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0107.

0.9957 - 0.0157 = 0.985

0.985 = 98.5% probability that the sample mean will be between $7.75 and $8.20.

Which side of the polygon is exactly 6 units long?

Answers

Answer:

AB is correct as It is the shorter parallel line

as the line measures 6 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The polygon is a trapezoid / (trapezium Eng/Europe)

We see the given coordinates  (2, 6) - (-4, 6) = x-6 y 0 = x = 6units

as x always is shown as x - 6  as  x= 6

We can also show workings as y2-y1/x2-x1 = 6-6/-4-2 0/-6

y = 0  x = 6 = 6 units as its horizontal line.

when y is 6-6 = 0 then we know the line is horizontal for y = 0.

The difference of the measures -4 to 2 is 6units so if no workings we just add on from -4 to 2 and find the answer is 6 units long.

When looking at diagonal lines we still group the x's and y's and make the fraction whole.

When looking for solid vertical lines that aren't shown here we use the y values if showing workings and show x =0 to cancel out.

A homeowner estimates that it will take 11 days to roof his house. A professional roofer estimates that he could roof the house in 6 days. How long will it take if the homeowner helps the roofer?

Answers

Answer:

If the homeowner helps the roofer it will take 4 days to roof the house.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a homeowner estimates that it will take 11 days to roof his house, while a professional roofer estimates that he could roof the house in 6 days, to determine how long it will take if the homeowner helps the roofer the following calculation must be done:

1/6 + 1/11 = X

0.1666666 + 0.09090909 = X

0.25 = X

1/4 = X

Therefore, if the homeowner helps the roofer it will take 4 days to roof the house.

If two marbles are selected in succession with replacement, find the probability that both marble is blue.

Answers

Answer:

1 / 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Choosing with replacement means that the first draw from the lot is replaced before another is picked '.

Number of Blue marbles = 2

Number of red marbles = 4

Total number of marbles = (2 + 4) = 6

Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

1st draw :

Probability of picking blue = 2 / 6 = 1 /3

2nd draw :

Probability of picking blue = 2 / 6 = 1/3

P(1st draw) * P(2nd draw)

1/3 * 1/3 = 1/9

a) m=31
b) m>43
c) m<31
d) 31 < m < 43

Answers

Answer:

they have it on calculator soup

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

D. 31<m<43

Step-by-step explanation:

45 x 5 = 225 which is the age of the 5 joggers altogether.

55 x 2 = 110 which is the age of the 2 joggers together.

3m + 110 = 225 then solve for m so,

3m = 115

m = 38.3333

so hence, m is greater than 31 but less than 43.

A sprinter travels a distance of 200 m in a time of 20.03 seconds.
What is the sprinter's average speed rounded to 4 sf?

Answers

Given:

When Cameron moved into a new house, he planted two trees in his backyard. At the time of planting, Tree A was 24 inches tall and Tree B was 39 inches tall. Each year thereafter, Tree A grew by 6 inches per year and Tree B grew by 3 inches per year. Let AA represent the height of Tree A tt years after being planted and let BB represent the height of Tree B tt years after being planted. Write an equation for each situation, in terms of t,t, and determine the interval of time, t,t, when Tree A is taller than Tree B.

Answers

Answer:

time interval when Tree A is taller than Tree B is;

t > 5 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Tree A;

Initial height = 24 inches

Increase in height per year = 6 inches per year

Thus, for t years after being planted, height is;

A = 6t + 24

Tree B;

Initial height = 39 inches

Increase in height per year = 3 inches per year

Thus, for t years after being planted, height is;

B = 3t + 39

For tree A to be taller than tree B, then it means thay;

A > B

Thus;

6t + 24 > 3t + 39

Subtract 3t from both sides to get;

6t - 3t + 24 > 39

3t + 24 > 39

3t > 39 - 24

3t > 15

Divide both sides by 3 to get;

t > 5

Thus, time interval when Tree A is taller than Tree B is; t > 5

Answers

Answer:

Distributive Property means you can multiply the outside and inside of parenthesis.

Addition Property... means you can add the same value to both sides of the equation without changing it.  In this case you add 3x.

Subtraction Property... same as addition property, but with subtraction.  In this case subtract 10 from both sides.

Division property...  same as addition and subtraction properties but with division.  In this case divide both sides by 8.  

Technically the addition property can be used for the subtract 10 because you just add -10 and multiplication property could be used for the division, because you just multiply both sides by 1/8, but for the purpose of this equation, you would say subtraction and division.

Prove the following identities : i) tan a + cot a = cosec a sec a​

if 3 sec²θ-5tan θ-4=0 find the general solution to this equation​

Answers

3 sec²(θ) - 5 tan(θ) - 4 = 0

Recall the Pythagorean identity,

cos²(θ) + sin²(θ) = 1.

Multiplying both sides by 1/cos²(θ) gives another form of the identity,

1 + tan²(θ) = sec²(θ).

Then the equation becomes quadratic in tan(θ):

3 (1 + tan²(θ)) - 5 tan(θ) - 4 = 0

3 tan²(θ) - 5 tan(θ) - 1 = 0

I'll solve by completing the square.

tan²(θ) - 5/3 tan(θ)) - 1/3 = 0

tan²(θ) - 5/3 tan(θ) = 1/3

tan²(θ) - 5/3 tan(θ) + 25/36 = 1/3 + 25/36

(tan(θ) - 5/6)² = 37/36

tan(θ) - 5/6 = ±√37/6

tan(θ) = (5 ± √37)/6

Take the inverse tangent of both sides:

θ = arctan((5 + √37)/6) +   or   θ = arctan((5 - √37)/6) +

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

4x² - 72x = 0 ← factor out 4 from each term

4(x² - 18x) = 0

To complete the square

add/subtract (half the coefficient of the x- term)² to x² - 18x

4(x² + 2(- 9)x + 81 - 81) = 0

4(x - 9)² - 4(81) = 0

4(x - 9)² - 324 = 0 ( add 324 to both sides )

4(x - 9)² = 324 ( divide both sides by 4 )

(x - 9)² = 81 ( take the square root of both sides )

x - 9 = ± [tex]\sqrt{81}[/tex] = ± 9 ( add 9 to both sides )

x = 9 ± 9
