If a1 = 8 and an
An-1 + 2 then find the value of a4.

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  a4 = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the recursive definition repeatedly.

  a1 = 8

  a2 = a1 +2 = 8 +2 = 10

  a3 = 10 +2 = 12

  a4 = 12 +2 = 14

_____

The recursive definition tells you the terms of the sequence have a common difference of 2. The explicit formula for a term of the sequence can be written as ...

  an = 8 + 2(n-1)

Then a4 is ...

  a4 = 8 +2(4 -1) = 8+6

  a4 = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle is composed by two right triangles. the sum of inner angles of a triangle is 180 degrees. If we look at the right one we can say that it’s top angle is 60 degrees. In fact 30 + 60 + 90 = 180

So also the top angle of the biggest triangle is right:

60 + 30 = 90

We can also say that the leg of that triangle on left that lies on the hypotenuse is half of its hypotenuse thanks to the its angles.

Thanks to these informations we can use a theorem, called first Euclid’s theorem that allow us to build a proportion:

6 : 12 = 12 : hypotenuse

6 * hypotenuse = 144

hypotenuse = 24

x = 24 - 6 = 18

For the same theorem:

18 : y = y : 24

y^2 = 432

y = 20,78461

18 + 20,78461 = 38,78461

How many 3/4 inch strips for caulk to cover 10 1/2 inches

Answers

Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

So let's think smart.  If you look at the image I made a diagram.  The 3 squares I colored in represent 3/4.  It takes 14 3/4 strips to cover 10 1/2 inches.

The Number of 3/4 inch strips required to cover 10 1/2 inches of caulk will be 14

The total inches of caulk to be covered = 10 1/2 inches

The fraction of inch strip to be used = 3/4 inches

To obtain the number of 3/4 inch strop required ;

We divide the total inches of caulk by 3/4

Hence,

10 1/2 ÷ 3/4

21/2 ÷ 3/4

Change the sign to × and take the reciprocal of 3/4 ;

21/2 × 4/3

(21 × 4) / (2 × 3) = 84 / 6

84 / 6 = 14

Hence, the number of 3/4 inch strip required is 14

20 points probability question

Answers

Answer:

a. n^2-2n+1/n squared

b. 9 green counters

Step-by-step explanation:

just as you role 3 dices and the chances are MULTIPLIED, the same goes for this problem.

n-1/n times n-1/n would create the probability of getting 2 green counters randomly from the bag's possibility.

n-1/n times n-1/n can be said as (n-1) squared or in simple terms:

n^2 -2n+1 or in words, n squared -2n +1.

divided by n squared is the fraction probability in simplest form:

n^2-2n+1/n squared

the next question is actually much easier:

0.9 is 90% in percentages, this can be detrimental to your grade if your teachers asked you for the decimal, not percentage of it.

for 1 every yellow counter, there is 9 green counters. so in the bag, there is one yellow counter meaning there are 9 green counters in the bag (after finishing the first question)

Part (a)

Answer:  (n-2)/n

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

Explanation:

There are n-1 green counters to start out of n counters total.

The probability of selecting a green counter is (n-1)/n

The probability of selecting a second green counter is (n-2)/(n-1) since we're not putting the first counter back.

Multiplying the two fractions leads to (n-2)/n

Note how the (n-1) terms cancel.

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

Part (b)

Answer:  19 green counters

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

Explanation:

We set the result of part (a) equal to 0.9 and solve for n

(n-2)/n = 0.9

(n-2)/n = 9/10

10(n-2) = 9n ... cross multiply

10n-20 = 9n

10n-9n = 20

n = 20

We have 20 counters in the bag. One counter is yellow and the remaining n-1 = 20-1 = 19 are green.

The probability of getting one green counter is 19/20

The probability of a second green counter is 18/19

The probability of two green counters is (19/20)*(18/19) = 18/20 = 9/10 = 0.9

This helps confirm the answer.

ii. q/E4Ï€E0
iii. q/4E0
iv. q/6E0
v. q/16E0

Answers

Answer:

iv. q/6E0

Step-by-step explanation:

Electric flux formula:

The electic flux formula, of a charge q is given by, through an entire cube, is given by:

[tex]E = \frac{q}{E_o}[/tex]

In which [tex]E_o[/tex] is a constant related to the material.

The electric flux through any one face of the cube is:

Key-word is face, and a cube has 6 faces, with the force distributed evenly throughout it. Thus

[tex]E_f = \frac{1}{6} \times \frac{q}{E_o} = \frac{q}{6E_o}[/tex]

And the correct answer is given by option iv.

Given:

Principal value = $1500

Rate of interest = 7% per annum compounded daily

Time = 2 years.

To find:

The amount after 2 years.

Solution:

Formula for amount:

[tex]A=P\left(1+\dfrac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}[/tex]

Where, P is principal, r is the rate of interest in decimals, n is the number of time interest compounded in an year and t is the number of years.

We know that 1 year is equal to 365 days and the interest compounded daily. So, n=365.

Substituting [tex]P=1500,\ r=0.07,\ n=365,\ t=2[/tex] in the above formula, we get

[tex]A=1500\left(1+\dfrac{0.07}{365}\right)^{365(2)}[/tex]

[tex]A=1500\left(\dfrac{365+0.07}{365}\right)^{730}[/tex]

[tex]A=1500\left(\dfrac{365.07}{365}\right)^{730}[/tex]

Using calculator, we get

[tex]A\approx 1725.39[/tex]

The amount after two years is $1,725.39. Therefore, the correct option is (c).

mike is looking at the roof of a new house from the front. he notices that the roof is triangular in shape with a base 11.2m. the left side is 6.7m long and makes an angle of 72 degree with the base of the roof. if this is the only known information, determine the angle the right side of the roof makes with the base of the roof to the nearest degree. be sure to first make a sketch

Answers

Answer:

35°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the sketch made, to obtain B we use the cosine angle formula :

We have 2 so des and an included angle

Cos B = (a² + c² - b²) / 2ac

First we obtain the side c

c² = a² + b² - 2ab CosC

c² = 11.2² + 6.7² - 2(11.7 * 6.7) * cos 72

c = 11.13

Using the value of c

Cos B = (a² + c² - b²) / 2ac

CosB = (11.2² + 11.13² - 6.7²) / (2*11.2*11.13)

Cos B = 204.4269 / 249.312

B = Cos^-1(204.4269 / 249.312)

B = 34.9°

When you add the different amounts needed together ( 1lb 3oz + 1lb 8oz + 2lb 4 oz ), you get 4lb 15oz. Since there are 16oz in a pound, you need less than 5 lb. Therefore, you need less than 5lb, the 5lb bag will be more than enough.

Assume the random variable X is normally distributed with mean μ = 50 and standard deviation σ= 7. Compute the probability.

Answers

Complete question is;

Assume the random variable X is normally distributed with mean μ = 50 and standard deviation σ = 7. What is the probability P (X > 42)?

Answer:

P(X > 42) = 0.1271

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

mean; μ = 50

Standard deviation; σ = 7

Formula for the z-score is;

z = (x - μ)/σ

Thus;

z = (42 - 50)/7

z = -1.14

Since we are looking for P (X > 42), then let's look up this z-value from the z-distribution table attached.

We have;

P(X > 42) = 0.1271

Describe how to use Scientific Notation to write a very small number. Give an example, written in both Standard Form and Scientific Notation.

Answer:

In scientific notation, the number in front of a decimal must be a digit. In other words, the number cannot be larger than 9.

The number 0.0000078's scientific notation would be [tex]7.8 * 10^-^6[/tex]

In scientific notation, when the exponent is negative, you move the decimal to the left.

When the decimal is positive, you move the decimal to the right.

Since the exponent is -6, I will move the decimal in 7.8 6 times to the left.

7.8's decimal moved 6 times to left is equal to 0.0000078.

Therefore, the scientific notation for 0.0000078 is [tex]7.8*10^-^6[/tex]
