A geometric series has a common ratio of (-2) and the first term is 3.
Show that the sum of the first eight positive terms of the series is 65 535.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum to n terms of a geometric series is

[tex]S_{n}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{a_{1}(r^{n}-1) }{r-1}[/tex]

where a₁ is the first term and r the common ratio

Given a₁ = 3 and r = - 2 , then

3 × - 2 = - 6

- 6 × -2 = 12

12 × - 2 = - 24

- 24 × - 2 = 48

48 × - 2 = - 96

- 96 × - 2 = 192

The positive terms are in a geometric progression

3, 12, 48, 192, ....

with a₁ = 3 and r = 12 ÷ 3 = 48 ÷ 12 = 4 , then

S₈ = [tex]\frac{3(4^{8}-1) }{4-1}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3(65536-1)}{3}[/tex] = 65536 - 1 = 65535

Zoe walks at a speed of 10 miles/h and jogs at a speed of 20 miles/h. She goes to the park to walk 2 miles on a Monday. How long will she take to walk 2 miles?

Answers

Answer:

12 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]s_1 = 10mi/h[/tex] --- walk speed

[tex]s_2 = 20mi/h[/tex] --- jog speed

[tex]d = 2\ miles[/tex] --- distance

Required

The time to walk the given distance

Time is calculated as:

[tex]Time = \frac{distance}{speed}[/tex]

In this case, the speed is the speed at which she walks.

So, we have:

[tex]Time = \frac{d}{s_1}[/tex]

Substitute known values

[tex]Time = \frac{2mi}{10mi/h}[/tex]

[tex]Time = 0.2hr[/tex]

Convert to minutes

[tex]Time = 0.2 * 60mins[/tex]

[tex]Time =12mins[/tex]

a. Write the inequalities

Let c and p represent numbers of cakes and pies produced daily. Then the constraints are ...

  2c +3p ≤ 108 . . . . . . . . available hours of preparation time

  1c +0.5p ≤ 20 . . . . . . . available hours of decoration time

  p ≥ 0, c ≥ 0 . . . . . . . . . negative numbers of cakes or pies cannot be produced

__

b. Sketch the feasible region

It works well to let a graphing calculator do this.

The feasible region is the doubly-shaded area with vertices ...

  (0, 0), (0, 36), (3, 34), (20, 0)

__

c. Write the profit function

Profit is $25 per cake and $12 per pie, so is ...

  p = 25c +12p

__

d. Determine maximum profit

The attached table shows the profit for the various mixes of cakes and pies in the feasible region. The most profit is had by production of cakes only.

The maximum profit is $500 per day for production of 20 cakes.

_____

Additional comment

We have used x for cakes and y for pies in the attachment, because those are variables that the Desmos calculator prefers.

As is sometimes the case, the production point giving maximum profit leaves one of the resources (preparation time) only partially utilized.

On a recent math test. Samantha scored 3 points for each of the 18 multiple choice que non se
answered correctly and 5 points for each of the 6 short response questions she answered correctly
She scored an additional 4 points for the bonus question. Write an expression for her total score on
the test and then find her score.

Answers

The required expression will therefore be:

(3×18) + (5×6) + 4

Her total score is 88points :

From the question given, we are told that Samantha scored 3 points for each of 18multiple questions his means that the total points made here is expressed as:

(3 × 18) ...1

If she got 5 points for each of the 6 short responsmultiple choice questione questions she answered

correctly, the total point made will be expressed as;

(5×6) ... 2

Total score for an additional 4 points for the bonus question will be "4"

Expression for her total score will be the sum of all the expression above as thus:

(3×18) + (5×6) + 4

Taking the sum, her score will be:

= (3×18) + (5×6) + 4

= 54 + 30 + 4

= 84 + 4

= 88 points

The required expression will therefore be:

(3×18) + (5×6) + 4

Her total score is 88points

Find the height in centimeters of a square pyramid with a volume of 144 cm3 and a base edge length equal to the height. Give the approximate answer rounded to 2 decimal places.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  7.56 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume is given by the formula ...

  V = 1/3b²h . . . . where b is the base edge length, and h is the height.

Here we have V = 144 cm³, and b = h. Filling in these values and solving for h, we get ...

  144 cm³ = 1/3h³

  432 cm³ = h³

  h = ∛432 cm ≈ 7.55953 cm

The height of the pyramid is about 7.56 cm.

Answer:

[tex]7.56cm[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

base length = Height

so,

[tex]volume = \frac{1}{3} {b}^{2} h \\ [/tex]

We can also write this as( according to this question)

[tex]v = \frac{1}{3} \times {b}^{2} \times b \\ v = \frac{ {b}^{3} }{3} [/tex]

let's solve

[tex]v = \frac{ {b}^{3} }{3} \\ 144 = \frac{ {b}^{3} }{3} \\ 144 \times 3 = {b}^{3} \\43 2 = {b}^{3} \\ \sqrt[3]{432} = b \\ b = 7.55[/tex]

[tex]base = height = 7.55cm \\ [/tex]

= 7.56cm

Answers

▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓

➯Question:

The product of two numbers is 10000. If one number is 16 times the other numbers ,find the two numbers.

Answer:

Both numbers are 25 and 400.

Step By Step Explanation:

Given that:

The product of two numbers is 10000.

One number is 16 times the other number.

To Find:

Both numbers?

Solution:

Let us consider that one number be n, in question it is stated that other number is 16 times the first number. Therefore, other number is 16n.

According to the Question :

[tex]\sf↦ Product ~of ~numbers = 10000\\\\↦ n × 16n = 10000\\\\↦ 16n² = 10000\\\\↦ n² = \sf \dfrac{10000}{16}\\\\↦ \sf n = \sqrt{\dfrac{10000}{16}}\\\\↦ \sf n = \sqrt{\dfrac{100\:\times\:100}{4\:\times\:4}}\\\\↦ \sf n = {\cancel{\dfrac{100}{4}}}\\\\➦\pmb{\underline{\boxed{\sf{\pink{n = 25}}}}}[/tex]

Hence,

1st number = n = 25

2nd number = 16n = 16 × 25 = 400

∴ Hence, both numbers are 25 and 400.

▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓

Answer:

(25, 400) or (-25, - 400)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers be x and y.

We have:

y = 16xxy = 10000

Substitute y and solve for x:

x(16x) = 1000016x² = 10000x² = 10000/16x² = 625x = √625x = ± 25

Then y is:

y = ± 25*16 = ± 400

The numbers are:

. If a = 120°, find the measure of angles b, c and d.
Explain your reasoning.

Answers

∡b is a vertical angle to ∡a and therefore a twin, and we know that ∡a = 120°, thus since ∡b = ∡a, ∡b = 120° as well.

a full circle has a total of 360°, ∡d and ∡c are vertical angles, namely two angles across from each other at a junction, and therefore ∡d = ∡c.

∡a + ∡b is 120° + 120° thus 240°, since a circle has a total of 360°, 360 - 240 = 120, so the other two angles pick up that slack and divide it among each other evenly, 120/2 = 60, so ∡d = ∡c = 60°.

Answer:

24 of the students have pets

Step-by-step explanation:

Two thirds of the students in a class have pets =

2/3 of the students in a class have pets

If there’re 36 students in the class, how many of the students have pets?

Step 1. Convert 2/3 as a decimal

2/3 = 66.6

Step 2. Use part/whole = part/whole

66.6%/100% = ?/36

Let ? represent the amount of students who have pets in class

Step 3. Divide 66.6/100

0.666

Step 4. Then multiply it by 36

The length of a room is two times its breadth and three times its height . if the cost of white wash on the 4 wall at Rs. 50 per m² is Rs. 7200, find the cost of carpeting its floor at Rs. 325 per m²​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let the height of the room(h) = x

Length(l) = 3*x = 3x

length = 2 * breadth

breadth(b) = length /2 = 3x/2

Cost of whitewashing the 4  walls = ₹ 7200

Area of 4 walls = 7200 ÷ 50 = 144 m²   ------(I)

Area of walls = 2lh + 2bh

                      = 2*3x*x + 2  *[tex]\frac{3x}{2}[/tex] * x

                       = 6x² + 3x²

                        = 9x²

9x² = 144    {From (I)}

x²  = 144/9

x²  = 16

x = [tex]\sqrt{16}=\sqrt{4*4}[/tex]

x = 4 m

height = 4 m

length = 3*4 = 12m

Breadth = [tex]\frac{3}{2}*4=3*2=6 \ m[/tex]

Area of floor = l*b

                    = 12 * 6

                    = 72 m²

Cost of carpeting the floor = 72 * 325 = ₹ 23400
