Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]a_n=a_{n-1}+8,n\geq 1[/tex]

[tex]a_1=-11[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a sequence

-11,-3,5,13,...

[tex]a=a_1=-11[/tex]

[tex]a_2=-3[/tex]

[tex]a_3=5[/tex]

[tex]a_2-a_1=-3-(-11)=-3+11=8[/tex]

[tex]a_3-a_2=5-(-3)=5+3[/tex]

[tex]a_3-a_2=8[/tex]

Common difference between two consecutive terms is equal.

Hence, the sequence is Arithmetic.

Common difference, d=8

[tex]a_2=a_1+8=-3[/tex]

[tex]a_3=a_2+8=5[/tex]

[tex]a_4=a_3+8=13[/tex]

In an A.P the term is -10 and the 15th term is 11 and the last term is 41. Find the sum of all terms in this progression.​

Answers

Answer:  542.5

This is equivalent to the fraction 1085/2

===============================================================

Explanation:

AP stands for "arithmetic progression", which is another name for "arithmetic sequence"

a1 = -10 is the first term

the 15th term happens when n = 15, so

an = a1 + d*(n-1)

a15 = -10 + d(15-1)

a15 = 14d-10

Set this equal to 11 (the stated 15th term) and solve for d

a15 = 11

14d-10 = 11

14d = 11+10

14d = 21

d = 21/14

d = 3/2

d = 1.5 is the common difference

Let's find the nth term

an = a1 + d(n-1)

an = -10 + 1.5(n-1)

an = -10 + 1.5n - 1.5

an = 1.5n - 11.5

-------------------------------

The last term is 41, so we'll replace the 'an' with that and solve for n

an = 1.5n - 11.5

41 = 1.5n - 11.5

41+11.5 = 1.5n

52.5 = 1.5n

1.5n = 52.5

n = (52.5)/(1.5)

n = 35

So the 35th term is 41.

-------------------------------

We're summing n = 35 terms from a1 = -10 to an = 41

S = sum of the first n terms of arithmetic progression

S = (n/2)*(a1 + an)

S = (35/2)*(-10+41)

S = 542.5

The 35 terms add up to 542.5 which is the final answer

As an improper fraction, this converts to 1085/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Two thousand numbers are selected randomly; 960 were even numbers. At the 0.10 level of significance, determine whether the proportion of odd numbers is significantly different from 50%.

Answers

Answer:

The p-value of the test is 0.0734 < 0.1, which means that there is significant evidence, at the 0.1 level of significance, to conclude that the proportion of odd numbers is significantly different from 50%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Test if the proportion of odd numbers is significantly different from 50%.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion is of 0.5, that is:

[tex]H_0: p = 0.5[/tex]

At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the proportion differs from 0.5, that is:

[tex]H_1: p \neq 0.5[/tex]

The test statistic is:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

0.5 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 0.5, \sigma = \sqrt{0.5(1-0.5)} = 0.5[/tex]

Two thousand numbers are selected randomly; 960 were even numbers.

This means that [tex]n = 2000, X = \frac{960}{2000} = 0.48[/tex]

Value of the test statistic:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{0.48 - 0.5}{\frac{0.5}{\sqrt{2000}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = -1.79[/tex]

P-value of the test and decision:

The p-value of the test is the probability that the sample proportion differs from 0.5 by at least |0.48-0.5| = 0.02, which is P(|z|<1.79), which is 2 multiplied by the p-value of z = -1.79.

Looking at the z-table, z = -1.79 has a p-value of 0.0367

2*0.0367 = 0.0734

The p-value of the test is 0.0734 < 0.1, which means that there is significant evidence, at the 0.1 level of significance, to conclude that the proportion of odd numbers is significantly different from 50%.

De los 30 balones de un colegio, dos quintos son de fútbol, un tercio de baloncesto y el resto de voleibol. ¿Cuántos balones de voleibol hay en el colegio? ayuda es para hoy ;(​

Answers

Answer:

Number of Volleyballs = 8 balls

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total number of balls = 30 balls

Fraction of soccer ball = 2/5 balls

Fraction of basketball = 1/3 balls

Rest are Volleyballs

Find:

Number of Volleyballs

Computation:

Number of Volleyballs = Total number of balls - Total number soccer balls - Total number of basketballs  

Number of Volleyballs = 30 - (30)(2/5) - (30)(1/3)

Number of Volleyballs = 30 - 12 - 10

Number of Volleyballs = 30 - 22

Number of Volleyballs = 8 balls

2.The school chess club is selling T-shirts for a profit of $4 each and baseball caps for a profit of $5 eac The club wants to sell 50 items and make a profit of $230. Calculate how many of each item the chess club needs

Answers

Step-by-step explanation

They sold $480 of tshirts, the ratio is 480;20, simplified to 24:1.

One shirt is $20, but $4 is the amount taken from 20 for the equipment.

Multiply $24 by the $4 taken for the equipment. (Equals $96)

They make 4/20 (1/5) of the the sales as a profit for equipment.

Multiply 1/5 by 480 and you will get $96 as the club's profits.

The chess club needs 20 T-shirts and 30 baseball caps.

What is Profit?

Profit is a term that often refers to the financial gain that a company receives when revenue exceeds costs and expenses. A child at a lemonade stand, for example, spends one quarter to make one cup of lemonade. She then charges $2 for the drink. Her profit on a cup of lemonade is $1.75.

Given :

Total no. of items to be sold = 50

Total profit to be made = $230

Profit on each T-shirt = $4

Profit on each Baseball cap = $5

Let no. of t-shirts be x

Let no. of t-shirts be y

Forming equations according to given problem :

Eq 1 : x + y = 50

Eq 2 : 4x + 5y = 230

Multiplying Eq 1 with 4 we get : 4x + 4y = 200

Subtracting Eq 1 from Eq 2

Solving Eq1 and Eq2 we get x = 20 and y = 30.

Therefore, The chess club needs 20 T- shirts and 30 baseball caps.

we need to get your brain thinking in this way. that you begin to understand how to do these things.

airways to say that your brain is not working that way, is not a valid excuse. we need to change that. your brain needs to get used to this way of thinking.

so, please, please, PLEASE go through the explanations below and tell me, where exactly in these explanations you stopped understanding what I was saying. so that I can better explain to you what is happening.

1. (0, -2)

2. 4

3. a geometric sequence. the common ratio is -2.0

4. the third option

5. the fourth option

Step-by-step explanation:

1. as x increases, y decreases. until, suddenly after x=0, this tendency reverses, and with increasing x also y increases. so, this is a turning point.

2. look at the line. it only starts with x>0 (it looks like x is around 1).

"input" is all the values of x the function has a defined result for (y = result values).

so, as there is no line for negative x, we can eliminate the first 2 answers.

x=0 is no valid answer either (as mentioned above, the line only starts well after x=0).

in the answer options the only x value having an y value above or below this x value is x=4.

3. look at the difference between 2 numbers next to each other in the sequence.

2.4 to -4.8

-4.8 to 9.6

and so on.

what do we need to do to get from the left to the right ?

we need to multiply by -2.

so, the relationship between "sequence item n" (an) to "sequence item n-1" (an-1) is a ratio, a multiplication factor :

an/an-1 = -2

4. it is completely simple. a function can be many things. on an x/y coordinate grid it can have gaps, it can have sharp direction changes,...

but there us one thing a function can never have : multiple different y values for one x value.

in the first graph x=2 has two different y values (-1 and -3). so, it is not clear what the result for x=2 would be. and that means, it is not a function.

in the second graph x=4 has two different y values.

in the third graph all is OK.

in the fourth graph x=-2 has two different y values.

so, only the third option is a function.

5. this function calculates the height of the thrown rock after t seconds of flight.

therefore, only the fourth answer makes sense.

Answer:

D=8

Step-by-step explanation:

normal division rules

33 goes into 47 1 time

then it leaves 17D

if we divide 170 by 33, we get 5 and if we divide 179 by 33, we still get 5. So we have 17D-165. That leaves us with something that you multiply 33 with to have a 2 in the ones place so that you get a remainder of 2. (In order to get 2 in the remainder, we need a 2 in the ones place because 4-2=2. In order to get that we need to see which number multiplied with 33 would get us a number smaller than 179 but also has a 2 in the ones place. Theres only one number and thats 4. 33*4=132. So in order to get only 2 in the remainder, we need the rest to be subtracted. This means that 17D-165=134. This way we can see that D=8

Answers

Answer:  D) reflection across y = -x

Explanation:

When we reflect over y = x, we basically swap x and y. So for instance, the point (3,1) becomes (1,3).

When reflecting over y = -x, we will do the same thing but we'll make each coordinate swap in sign from positive to negative (or vice versa). The rule for reflecting over y = -x is [tex](x,y) \to (-y,-x)[/tex]

So if we apply that rule to point A(3,1) then it becomes A ' (-1, -3).
