The 10th term of an AP is -37 and sum of its first 6 terms is -27. Find the sum of its first eight terms.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: - 63

Step-by-step explanation:

An arithmetic progression is such that the N-th element is equal to:

An = A1 + (n-1)*R

where A1 is the first term, and R is the difference between two consecutive terms.

We know that

A1 + 9*R = -37

and

A1 + (A1 + R) +  (A1 + 2R) +   (A1 + 3R) +  (A1 + 4R) +  (A1 + 5R) = -27

6*A1 + R(1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5) = -27

6*A1 + 15*R = -27

so we have two equations:

6*A1 + 15*R = -27

A1 + 9*R = -37

Let's find A1 and R.

First, isolate A1 in the second equation:

A1 = -37 - 9*R

now replace it in the other equation and solve it for R.

6*A1 + 15*R = -27

6*(-37 - 9*R) + 15*R = -27

-222 - 54*R + 15*R = -27

-39*R = -27 + 222 = 195

R = 195/-39 = -5

Now we can find the value of A1:

A1 = -37 - 9*R = -37 - 9*-5 = 8

So now we want to calculate the sum of the first eight terms. we already know that the sum of the first six is -27, so we need to add the seventh and the eigth.

A7 = 8 + 6*-5 = -17

A8 = 8 + 7*-5 = -22

Sum = -27 -17 - 22 = -63

Answer: 56° and 34°

Step-by-step explanation: Well we know this is a complementary angle and if two angles are complementary, then the sum of their measures is 90 degrees.

If these two angles have to add together to be 90 degrees, we can use that fact to set up our equation. We can say that 4x + (2x + 6) = 90.

Simplifying from here, we have 6x + 6 = 90.

Subtracting 6 from both sides, we have 6x = 84.

Dividing both sides by 6, we find that x = 14.

Now, remember that these should add up to 90 degrees.

We can check by substituting the value that we just found back in for x to check our angles. If they add to 90 degrees, we did it correctly.

So for the first one we have 4(14) which is 56 and for the next one we have 2(14) + 6 or 28 + 6 which simplifies to 34.

Now adding, 56 + 34 gives us 90.

So, we know that these are the correct measures.

A triangle has sides with lengths of 8 centimeters, 14 centimeters, and 16 centimeters. Is it a right triangle?

Answers

Answer:

No, the triangle is not a right triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to determine if the triangle having the lengths given in the question is a right triangle.

To answer this question, we need to take into consideration a very important property of right angle triangles.

The property is that the square of the length of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the two other sides

The hypotenuse is the one with the longest length. Thus, the hypotenuse here is 16 centimeters.

Now let’s have the squares!

The square of the hypotenuse is 16 * 16 = 256

Let’s sum the squares of the other two sides;

(8 * 8) + ( 14 * 14) = 64 + 196 = 260

These squares are not equal so we can conclude that the triangle is not a right triangle

Discussion Topic: As part of their job, meteorologists make weather predictions from data. How accurate are their predictions? What are other scenarios in which you would use data to make a prediction? How would you defend your prediction using data?

Answers

Answer: 1. Not always accurate.

2. A football game.

3. By using the data from the winning percentage against number of games played.

Step-by-step explanation:

Meteorologists are responsible for making weather predictions, but their predictions are always not accurate because they use datas and theory to predict the scenarios of the weather or what it might be. Their predictions are not accurate because of changes in weather or data being used unexpectedly.

A scenario where I would use data to make a prediction could be in a football match or game where you i have a percentage of winning, which depends on how many times the game is played.

The winning percentage gives us the data on the probability of winning the game which would help predict how many times you'll win a game by how many times the game is played.

A 25ft ladder is propped against a storeroom. The angle the ladder forms is 50°. How far up the storeroom does the ladder reach?

Answers

Answer:

This means the store room is 19.15ft up

Step-by-step explanation:

The set up of the question will form a right angle triangle.

The length of the ladder will be the hypotenuse of the triangle and the angle the ladder forms will be the angle of elevation. This angle of elevation will face the opposite side of the triangle which is the height of the storeroom directly.

Using the SOH CAH TOA trigonometry identity,

According to SOH;

Sin∅ = opposite/hypotenuse

∅ is the angle the ladder forms

sin50° = x/25

x = 25sin50°

x = 19.15ft

This means the store room is 19.15ft up

What is the approximate area of the shaded sector in the circle shown below?
A. 31.7 cm^2
B. 5.76cm^2
C. 2.88cm^2
D. 126.7cm^2

Answers

Answer:it’s 31.7 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The approximate area of the shaded sector is 31.7 cm² (Option A).

To find the area of the shaded sector, we need to calculate the fraction of the entire circle that the sector represents and then multiply it by the area of the whole circle.

The formula to find the area of a sector is given by:

Area of sector = (θ/360) * π * r²

where θ is the central angle and r is the radius of the circle.

In this case, the radius (r) of the circle is given as 11 cm, and the central angle (θ) is given as 30 degrees.

Let's calculate the area of the shaded sector:

θ = 30 degrees

r = 11 cm

Area of sector = (30/360) * π * 11²

             = (1/12) * π * 121

             = π * 10.0833...

Now, we can approximate the value of π as 3.14:

Area of sector ≈ 3.14 * 10.0833...

             ≈ 31.7 cm²

Therefore, the approximate area of the shaded sector is 31.7 cm².

The correct option from the given choices is A. 31.7 cm².

In ΔMNO, the measure of ∠O=90°, MN = 9 feet, and OM = 4.2 feet. Find the measure of ∠N to the nearest degree.

Answers

Answer:

The measure of angle N to the nearest degree is 28 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question, we shall be needing a diagrammatic representation of the triangle. Please check attachment for this.

To calculate the angle N, we shall be making use of trigonometric identities. From the diagram we see that we have the hypotenuse ( the longest side and the side facing the angle 90) and also the opposite ( the side facing the angle N)

Thus, the correct trigonometric identity to use here is the Sine

Mathematically, the sine of an angle = length of the opposite/length of the hypotenuse

Our opposite here is 4.2 feet with our hypotenuse as 9 feet

Plugging these values, we have

Sin N = 4.2/9

Sin N = 0.46666667

N = arc sin (0.46666667)

N = 27.82 , to the nearest degree we have 28 degrees

Marquis wrote the linear regression equation y=1.245x-3.685 to predict the cost, y, of x songs purchased. Which is the best estimate of number of songs that marquis purchased?

Answers

The complete question is;

Marquis wrote the linear regression equation y = 1.245x - 3.685 to predict the cost, y, of x songs purchased. Marquis spent $40 on songs. Which is the best estimate of the number of songs that Marquis purchased?

Answer:

The best estimate of the number of songs that Marquis purchased = 35 songs

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, let's make x the subject of the linear regression equation.

 We are given that,

 y = 1.245x - 3.685

 So,

 1.245x = (y + 3.685)

 x = (y + 3,685) / (1,245)

We are told that Marquis spent $40 on songs.

Thus;

Substituting the value of $40 for y into the equation to get;

 x = (40 +3,685)/(1,245)

x = 35.09

x ≈ 35

 

Thus, the best estimate of the number of songs that Marquis purchased is 35

Answer:

the number of songs that Marquis purchased is 35

1) A is the hypotenuse
