Two terms of an arithmetic sequence are a12=70 and a30=124. Write an explicit rule for the nth term.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Tn = 34-3n

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is given as;

Tn = [tex]a+(n-1)d[/tex]

a is the first term

n is the number of terms

d is the common difference

If  two terms of an arithmetic sequence are a12=70 and a30=124 then;

T12 = a+(12-1)d = 70

T12 = a+11d = 70...(1)

T30 = a+(30-1)d = 124

T30 = a+29d = 124...(2)

Solving equation 1 and 2 simultaneously to get a and d;

Taking the difference of both equation we have;

29d - 11d = 124-70

18d = 54

d = 54/18

d = 3

Substituting d=3 into equation 1 to get the value of 'a' we have;

a+11(3) = 70

a+33=70

a = 70-33

a = 37

To get the explicit rule for the nth term of the sequence, we will use the formula Tn = a+ (n-1)d where a = 37, d =3

Tn = 37+(n-1)3

Tn = 37+3n-3

Tn = 34-3n

This gives the required nth term

The equivalent value of trigonometric relation sin⁻¹ ( √3/2 ) = π/3

What are trigonometric relations?

Trigonometry is the study of the relationships between the angles and the lengths of the sides of triangles

The six trigonometric functions are sin , cos , tan , cosec , sec and cot

Let the angle be θ , such that

sin θ = opposite / hypotenuse

cos θ = adjacent / hypotenuse

tan θ = opposite / adjacent

tan θ = sin θ / cos θ

cosec θ = 1/sin θ

sec θ = 1/cos θ

cot θ = 1/tan θ

Given data ,

Let the trigonometric relation be represented as A

Now , the value of A is

sin⁻¹ ( √3/2 ) = θ

Now , the value of θ is calculated by

In a triangle , sin θ = opposite / hypotenuse

So , sin θ = √3/2

The value of θ = 60°

So , the measure of 60° in radians is θ = π/3

Hence , the value of θ from the trigonometric relation is π/3

Answers

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

The median is the middle number after ordered into numberical order. If there's two and the numbers are different, you add them and divide the total by 2.

Answer: 4

Step-by-step explanation: The median is the middle number in the data set when the data set is written from least to greatest.

So let's write our data set from least to greatest.

So we have 1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 4, 6, 6, 10.

Now, notice that there are two numbers that appear in the middle.

I have underlined them above.

When two numbers appear in the middle that are the same number (4 and 4), the median will be the same number too.

So the median of the given data set is 4.

Some Field Experience in the use of an Accelerated Method in Estimating 28-Day Strength of Concrete" considered regressing y =28-day standard-cured strength (psi) against x =accelerated strength (psi). Suppose the equation of the true regression line is y =1800 +1.3x.

b.By how much can we expect 28-day strength to change when accelerated strength increases by 1 psi? (4 marks)


c. Answer part (b) for an increase of 100 psi. (2 marks)


d. Answer part (b) for a decrease of 100 ps

Answers

Answer:

(a) 5,050 psi.(b) 5,051.3 psi.(c) 5,180 psi.(d) 4,920 psi.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

[tex]y=1800+1.3x[/tex]

Where [tex]x[/tex] represents the accelerated strength in psi, and [tex]y[/tex] represents 28-day standard-cured strength in psi.

Part a is about finding the y-value for [tex]x=2500[/tex]

[tex]y=1800+1.3(2500)=1800+3250=5,050[/tex]

Therefore, the expected value of 28-day strength when accelerated strength is 2,500, is 5,050 psi.

Part b is about the y-value for [tex]x=2501[/tex]

[tex]y=1800+1.3(2501)=1800+3251.3=5,051.3[/tex]

Part c is about the y-value for [tex]x=2600[/tex]

[tex]y=1800+1.3(2600)=1800+3380=5,180[/tex]

Part d is about the y-value for [tex]x=2400[/tex]

[tex]y=1800+1.3(2400)=1800+3120=4,920[/tex]

Suppose the probability of an athlete taking a certain illegal steroid is 10%. A test has been developed to detect this type of steroid and will yield either a positive or negative result. Given that the athlete has taken this steroid, the probability of a positive test result is 0.995. Given that the athlete has not taken this steroid, the probability of a negative test result is 0.992. Given that a positive test result has been observed for an athlete, what is the probability that they have taken this steroid

Answers

Answer:

93.25% probability that they have taken this steroid

Step-by-step explanation:

Bayes Theorem:

Two events, A and B.

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(B)*P(A|B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

In which P(B|A) is the probability of B happening when A has happened and P(A|B) is the probability of A happening when B has happened.

In this question:

Event A: Positive test

Event B: Taking the steroid.

Suppose the probability of an athlete taking a certain illegal steroid is 10%.

This means that [tex]P(B) = 0.1[/tex]

Given that the athlete has taken this steroid, the probability of a positive test result is 0.995.

This means that [tex]P(A|B) = 0.995[/tex]

Positive test:

99.5% of 10%(If the athlete has taken).

100-99.2 = 0.8% of 100-10 = 90%(Athlete has not taken)

Then

[tex]P(B) = 0.995*0.1 + 0.008*0.9 = 0.1067[/tex]

Given that a positive test result has been observed for an athlete, what is the probability that they have taken this steroid

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(B)*P(A|B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.1*0.995}{0.1067} = 0.9325[/tex]

93.25% probability that they have taken this steroid

Find the area of the regular polygon.

Round your answer to the

nearest tenth if necessary.

Answers

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete as the dimension of the polygon is not given.

However, I'll give a general explanation of how to calculate the area of a regular polygon.

If you follow these simple steps, you'll arrive at your answer.

The area of a polygon is calculated as thus;

A = ½(nbh)

Where A represent the area

n represents the number of sides

b represents the length of the base

h represent the height of the polygon

Take for instance, the polygon is a regular pentagon.

This means n = 5.

Also assume that the base and the height are 5cm and 7cm respectively.

This means that

Area = ½ * (5 * 5 * 7)

Area = ½ * 175

Area = 87.5cm²

Hence, the area of the polygon is 87.5cm²

Solve: 3x
+ 4 = 5x - 4x - 8​

Answers

Answer:

3x =  - 18

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Simplify this equation in terms of what is already provided:

3x + 4 = 5x - 4x - 8 ⇒ 3x + 4 = x - 8

2. Now subtract 3x from either side, at the same time adding 8 to either side:   3x + 4 = x - 8 ⇒ 4 = -2x - 8 ⇒ 12 = -2x

3. Divide -2 on either side to isolate the x, and recieve it's value:

12 = -2x ⇒ x = 12/-2 ⇒ x = -6

4. The question demads for the value of 3x, so simply multiply the known value of x by 3, as such: x = -6 ⇒ 3x = -6 * 3 = -18

The answer is 3x=-18

Find z1z2 if z1 = 3(cos37° + isin37°) and z2 = 2/3(cos53° + isin53°).

Answers

Answer:

[tex]z_{1}\cdot z_{2} = 2\cdot (\cos 90^{\circ} + i \cdot \sin 90^{\circ})[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Both variable can be rewritten into polar form:

[tex]z_{1} = 3\cdot e^{i\cdot 0.205\pi}[/tex] and [tex]z_{2} = \frac{2}{3}\cdot e^{i\cdot 0.294\pi}[/tex]

The complex product is equal to:

[tex]z_{1}\cdot z_{2} = (3)\cdot \left(\frac{2}{3}) \cdot e^{i\cdot (0.205\pi+0.294\pi)}[/tex]

[tex]z_{1}\cdot z_{2} = 2 \cdot e^{i\cdot 0.499\pi}}[/tex]

The resultant expression in rectangular form is:

[tex]z_{1}\cdot z_{2} = 2\cdot (\cos 90^{\circ} + i \cdot \sin 90^{\circ})[/tex]

Answer:

The correct question is:

Find [tex]z_{1}.z_{2}[/tex] if [tex]z_{1}= 3(cos37 + isin37)[/tex] and [tex]z_{2}= \frac{2}{3} (cos53 + isin53)[/tex].

(Note: the angles mentioned in the equations above are in degrees)

The answer is [tex]z_{1}.z_{2}= 2i[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]z_{1}.z_{2}= 3(cos37 + isin37)* \frac{2}{3} (cos53 + isin53)[/tex]

[tex]z_{1}.z_{2}= (3cos37 + 3isin37)* (\frac{2}{3} cos53 + \frac{2}{3}isin53)[/tex]

[tex]z_{1}.z_{2}= 3cos37*\frac{2}{3} cos53 + 3cos37*\frac{2}{3}isin53+3isin37*\frac{2}{3} cos53+3isin37*\frac{2}{3}isin53[/tex]

[tex]z_{1}.z_{2}= 0.961+1.275i+0.724i-0.961[/tex] (Because [tex]i*i=i^{2}=-1[/tex] & [tex]i=\sqrt{-1}[/tex])

[tex]z_{1}.z_{2}= 0.961+1.275i+0.724i-0.961[/tex]

What can we conclude

Answers

Answer:

we can conclude that more than 50% of community college students plan to vote in the next presidential election

Step-by-step explanation:

Decision Rule

If;

P-value > significance level --- accept Null hypothesis

P-value < significance level --- reject Null hypothesis

Z score > Z(at 95% confidence interval) ---- reject Null hypothesis

Z score < Z(at 95% confidence interval) ------ accept Null hypothesis

Null hypothesis H0: 50% of community college students plan to vote in the next presidential election

H0: p = 0.50

Ha: More than 50% of community college students plan to vote in the next presidential election

Ha: p > 0.50

P-value = 0.02

From the decision rule;

Since the p-value for this study is less than the significance level.

0.02 < 0.05

So, we reject the null hypothesis, there is enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis. We thereby accept the alternative hypothesis.

Therefore, we can conclude that more than 50% of community college students plan to vote in the next presidential election
