Answer:
(3ab)/(2(b-a))
Step-by-step explanation:
The n-th term of an arithmetic progression is ...
an = a1 +d(n -1)
Then the value of n is ...
n = (an -a1)/d +1
The sum of an arithmetic progression is the product of the number of terms and the average of the first and last terms. In this sequence, the common difference d is ...
d = (b -a)
So, the sum is ...
Sn = (a +2a)/2·((2a -a)/(b -a) +1)
Sn = (3ab)/(2(b-a)) . . . . sum of the arithmetic progression
__
Example:
The sequence 1, 1.5, 2 has ...
a = 1, b = 1.5
Its sum is given by the above formula as ...
Sn = 3(1)(1.5)/(2(1.5 -1)) = 4.5/(2(.5)) = 4.5 = 1 + 1.5 + 2 . . . . yes
Find n for the arithmetic sequence for which sn=345, u1=12 and d = 5 .
Answer:
n = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum to n terms of an arithmetic sequence is
[tex]S_{n}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{n}{2}[/tex] [ 2a₁ + (n - 1)d ]
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Here a₁ = 12 and d = 5 and [tex]S_{n}[/tex] = 345, thus
[tex]\frac{n}{2}[/tex] [ (2 × 12) + 5(n - 1) ] = 345 ( multiply both sides by 2 )
n( 24 + 5n - 5) = 690 ← distribute and simplify left side
n(19 + 5n) = 690
19n + 5n² = 690 ( subtract 690 from both sides )
5n² + 19n - 690 = 0 ← in standard form
(5n + 69)(n - 10) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for n
5n + 69 = 0 ⇒ 5n = - 69 ⇒ n = - [tex]\frac{69}{5}[/tex]
n - 10 = 0 ⇒ n = 10
However, n > 0 , thus n = 10

It's necessary to find a equation y = ax + b that brings us the least MSE (Mean Squared Error). You can calculate at hand, but I bet it is going to be tiresome.
So, basically intuitively you just need to choose a line that fits closer to the given points.
First: remember if y = ax+b, a is the slope which means if a > 0 the line is " / " and a < 0 the line is " \ ".
A) No, this equation is " / "
B) It could be this one.
C) It could be this one too.
D) Nope. " / "
B) a = -1/2
C) a = -4
You can draw those two lines and see that B) gets closer to the points.
Equation:
Y = -0.4957*X + 3.780
Answer: B)Answer:
[tex]\Large \boxed{y=-\frac{1}{2} x+\frac{7}{2} }[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Using a graph,
we can see that the line y = -1/2x + 7/2 best fits for the data.
Suppose x varies directly with the square root of y and inversely with the cube root of z. What equation models this combined variation?
Answer:
[tex]\huge\boxed{x = k \frac{\sqrt{y} }{\sqrt[3]{z} }}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
1) x ∝ √y
2) x ∝ [tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt[3]{z} }[/tex]
Combining the proportionality
=> x ∝ [tex]\frac{\sqrt{y} }{\sqrt[3]{z} }[/tex]
=> [tex]x = k \frac{\sqrt{y} }{\sqrt[3]{z} }[/tex]
Where k is the constant of proportionality.
Are you able to find tri-sector (equally divided by 3) rays for an arbitrary angle with straightedge-and-compass construction?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
No, it is an ancient problem which has been proved to be impossible (in 1837), at least not for an arbitray angle.
However, we can trisect certain angles, such as 90 degrees, but rather than trisection, we are just constructing 30 degree angles.

To which set of numbers does the number sqr rt-16 belong? Select all that apply
Answer:
The square root of -16 is an imaginary number and a complex number. Sqrt(-16)=4i. We use the i to indicate that the number is imaginary since there is no number that can be multiplied by itself to get a negative number (a negative times a negative is a positive, and a positive times a positive is also a positive). So the use of i tells you immediately that it's an imaginary number. You can tell the number is complex because it has both a real and an imaginary part and could be written in the form a+bi, where a is a real number and bi is an imaginary number. In this specific case, the real part (a) is 0 and the imaginary part (bi) is 4i.

Answer:
right machine first, then left.6 into left machine, then rightStep-by-step explanation:
a) Putting 6 into the first (left) machine will give an output of ...
y = √(6 -5) = √1 = 1
Putting 1 into the second (right) machine will give an output of ...
y = 1² -6 = -5
This answers the second question, but not the first question.
__
If we put 6 into the right machine first, we get an output of ...
y = 6² -6 = 30
Putting 30 into the left machine, we get an output of ...
y = √(30 -5) = √25 = 5 . . . . . the desired output.
The input must go into the right machine first, then its output goes into the left machine to get a final output of 5 from an input of 6.
__
b) The left machine cannot produce negative outputs, so achieving an output of -5 with the arrangement used in part A is not possible. (green curves in the attached graph)
However, as we have shown above, inputting 6 to the left machine first, following that by processing with the right machine, can produce an output of -5. (purple curve in the attached graph)
A special mixed-nut blend at a store cost $1.35 per lb, and in 2010 the blend cost $1.83 per lb. Let y represent the cost of a pound of the mixed-nut blend x years after 2005. Use a linear equation model to estimate the cost of a pound of the mixed-nut blend in 2007.
Answer:
y = $1.542 per lb
Step-by-step explanation:
given data
mixed-nut blend store cost 2005 = $1.35 per lb
blend cost in 2010 = $1.83 per lb
solution
we consider here y = cost of a pound
and x year = after 2005
we will use here linear equation model
so
[tex]\frac{y - 1.35}{1.83-1.35} = \frac{x-10}{5 - 0}[/tex] .........................1
solve it we get
5y - 6.75 = .48 x
so
at 2007 year here x wil be 2
so
[tex]y = \frac{0.48 \times 2 + 6.75}{5}[/tex]
solve it we get
y = $1.542 per lb

Write the null and alternative hypotheses you would use to answer this question. Are Americans getting fatter? Researchers interested in this question take a random sample of 500 people and record an average weight of 190 pounds. Ten years ago, the average weight was 185 pounds.
Answer:
H0: u = 185 against Ha: u > 185
or
H0: u ≤ 185 against Ha: u > 185
Step-by-step explanation:
The null and alternative hypotheses for this experiment would be
H0: u = 185 against Ha: u > 185
or
H0: u ≤ 185 against Ha: u > 185
This is a one tailed test .
If the results are such that we reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternative hypothesis it means that the Americans are getting fatter as the mean weight is increasing day by day.
The null hypothesis deals with all the values equal to or less than 185 pounds and the alternative with all the values greater than 185 pounds.
A customer can pay GH➣900.00 per month on a mortgage payment.
Interest rate is 12% annually compounded continuously, and mortgage
terms is 15 years. Determine the maximum amount the customer can pay within
the period.
Answer:
$74,748.11
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to make use of the amortization formula, we need to find the equivalent monthly interest rate.
When 12% interest is compounded continuously, the annual multiplier is ...
e^0.12 ≈ 1.127497
The equivalent multiplier when the interest is compounded monthly is the 12th root of this,
(e^0.12)^(1/12) = e^0.01 ≈ 1.0100502 = 1 + r
___
The amortization formula tells us that monthly payment amount A will pay off principal P in n months:
P = A(1 -(1 +r)^-n)/r = $900(1 -1.0100502^-180)/0.0100502
P = $74,748.11
The customer can pay off a 12% loan of $74,748.11 at the rate of $900 per month for 15 years.

3x-2y=13 and 2y+x+1=0
Answer:
(3,-2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equations of line
3x-2y=13
2y+x+1=0
=> x = -1 -2y
Point of intersection will coordinates where both equation have same value of (x,y)
top get that we have to solve the both equations by using method of substitution of simultaneous equation.
using this value of x in 3x-2y=13, we have
3(-1-2y) -2y = 13
=> -3 -6y-2y = 13
=> -8y = 13+3 = 16
=> y = 16/-8 = -2
x = -1 - 2y = -1 -2(-2) = -1+4= 3
Thus, point of intersection of line is (3,-2)

Calculate the derivative of the function. Then find the value of the derivative as specified:
f(x) = 5x + 9; f "(2)
A) f "(x) 0,f , (2)-0
B) f , (x)-9; f , (2) = 9
C)f"(x) = 5; f "(2) = 5
D) f '(x) 5x; f '(2) 10
The correct question is;
Calculate the derivative of the function. Then find the value of the derivative as specified:
f(x) = 5x + 9; f '(2)
A) f'(x) = 0; f'(2) = 0
B) f'(x) = 9; f '(2) = 9
C)f'(x) = 5; f'(2) = 5
D) f '(x) = 5x; f '(2) = 10
Answer:
Option C: f'(x) = 5 and f '(2) = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to find the derivative of f(x) = 5x + 9.
Now, the derivative with respect to x will be;
f'(x) = 5
Now,we also want to find out f'(2)
This means we are to put 2 for x in the derivative function.
In the derivative function, we don't have x as we have just 5.
Thus,f'(2) = 5

What are the solutions to the system of equations? {y=2x2−8x+5y=x−2 (3.5, 0.5) and (1, −1) (7, 5) and (0.5, −1.5) (3.5, 1.5) and (1, −1) (3.5, 1.5) and (−1, −3)
Answer:
[tex](1,-1)[/tex] and [tex](3.5,1.5)[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]y = 2x^2 - 8x+5[/tex]
[tex]y = x - 2[/tex]
Required
Determine the solution
Substitute x - 2 for y in [tex]y = 2x^2 - 8x+5[/tex]
[tex]x - 2 = 2x^2 - 8x+5[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]0 = 2x^2 - 8x - x + 5 + 2[/tex]
[tex]0 = 2x^2 - 9x + 7[/tex]
Expand the expression
[tex]0 = 2x^2 - 7x - 2x+ 7[/tex]
Factorize
[tex]0 = x(2x - 7) -1(2x - 7)[/tex]
[tex]0 = (x-1)(2x - 7)[/tex]
Split the expression
[tex]x - 1 = 0[/tex] or [tex]2x - 7 = 0[/tex]
Solve for x in both cases
[tex]x = 1[/tex] or [tex]2x = 7[/tex]
[tex]x = 1[/tex] or [tex]2x/2 = 7/2[/tex]
[tex]x = 1[/tex] or [tex]x = 3.5[/tex]
Recall that
[tex]y = x - 2[/tex]
When [tex]x = 1[/tex]
[tex]y = 1 -2[/tex]
[tex]y = -1[/tex]
When [tex]x = 3.5[/tex]
[tex]y = 3.5 - 2[/tex]
[tex]y = 1.5[/tex]
Hence, the solution is;
[tex](1,-1)[/tex] and [tex](3.5,1.5)[/tex]

in the diagram, POS,QOT and UOR are straight lines. Find the value of y.
Answer:
y = 15°
Step-by-step explanation:
Since ∠QOR and ∠UOT are vertical, they are congruent so ∠UOT = 5y. Since POS is a straight line (which has a measure of 180°) and ∠POS = ∠POU + ∠UOT + ∠TOS, we can write:
5y + 5y + 2y = 180
12y = 180
y = 15°

Examine the diagram. Triangle M P L. Angle P is 90 degrees and angle L is (4 x + 6) degrees. The exterior angle to angle M is 136 degrees. What is the value of x?
Answer:
x = [tex]10^{0}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From Δ MPL given that; <P = [tex]90^{0}[/tex], exterior angle to M = [tex]136^{0}[/tex] and <L = [tex](4x+6)^{0}[/tex].
In the triangle, the exterior angle is equal to the sum of the two adjacent interior angles. So that;
[tex]136^{0}[/tex] = [tex]90^{0}[/tex] + [tex](4x+6)^{0}[/tex]
= [tex]90^{0}[/tex] + 4[tex]x^{0}[/tex] + [tex]6^{0}[/tex]
[tex]136^{0}[/tex] = [tex]96^{0}[/tex] + [tex]x^{0}[/tex]
⇒ 4[tex]x^{0}[/tex] = [tex]136^{0}[/tex] - [tex]96^{0}[/tex]
4[tex]x^{0}[/tex] = [tex]40^{0}[/tex]
Divided both sides by 4 to have;
[tex]x^{0}[/tex] = [tex]10^{0}[/tex]
The value of x is [tex]10^{0}[/tex].
