In a certain arithmetic sequence, if -4 is the first term and 10 is the third term, which term is 157?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a₁₅₇ = 1,088

Step-by-step explanation:

aₙ = a₁ + d(n-1); where 'd' if common difference

a₁₅₇ = -4 + 7(156)

      = -4 + 1092

      = 1,088

Answer 2

Answer:

157 is the 24th term

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for arithmetic sequences is an=a1+(n-1)d,

where an is the nth term, a1 is the first term, n is the term position, and d is the common difference

First, we need to find the common difference using the 10.

Since it's the third term, we have 10=-4+(3-1)d

Solving for d gives us d=7

Next, we need to find the term number of 157

Thus, we have 157=-4+(n-1)*7

Solving for n gives us n=24

We can check it like this: Following order of operations (i.e. PEMDAS) gives us 24-1=23*7=161-4=157

solve for x round to the nearest tenth if necessary.

Answers

Answer:

20.4

Step-by-step explanation:

use trig relations with the angle 74˚

the sides we know are the hyp (74) and the adj side to 74˚ (x).

the trig function associated with hyp and adj is cos.

cos = adj/hyp.

cos 74˚ = x/74

0.27 = x/74

x = 20.39

x = 20.4

Answer:

20.4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. c = b · sin(C) / sin(B) = 20.39716

This is the equation to find x.

c = x

b = 74

C = ?

B = 90

2. C must be found. We know that A is 90 and B is 74.

3. 180 = 90 + 74 + C

According to the triangle sum theorem, the angles of every triangle would add up to equal to 180. This means we should add 90 and 74 first.

4. 180 = 164 + C

You must do 180 - 164 which equals 16.

5. C = 16

This means that 16 is what C equals. You can finally plug in the equation with all the gathered information

c = x

b = 74

C = 16

B = 90

4.  x = 74 · sin(16) / sin(90) =

You could use a calculator to find the answer.

5. The answer you would get is 20.39716, but you need to round to the nearest tenth. The 3 behind the decimal is the tenth place but there is a 9 behind it meaning the 3 must be rounded up to a 4. This means that your answer to this problem is 20.4 when rounded to the nearest tenth.

A North American river otter wants to cross the North Saskatchewan river. It can swim at a speed of 2.75 m/s. In that location, the distance directly across the river is 45.0 m and the current velocity is 2.5 m/s.

a) How much time does the otter take to get to the other side, if it points directly across the river?

Answers

Answer:

time=16.3 sec

Step-by-step explanation:

let time taken be x

speed=distance/time taken

2.75=45/x

2.75x=45

x=45/2.75

x=16.36

x=16.3 seconds

The time taken is 16.3 seconds.

What is speed?

Speed = Distance/Time

This informs us how slowly or quickly an object moves. It defines the distance traveled divided by the time brought to cover the distance. Speed stands directly proportional to distance and inversely proportional to Time.

Let x be the time taken

speed = distance/time taken

2.75 = 45/x

2.75x = 45

x = 45/2.75

x = 16.36

x = 16.3 seconds

Therefore, the time taken is 16.3 seconds.

Write an equation for the graph below using its zeros.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It's a cubic.

It has 1 root that cuts the x axis at x = -4

It has 2 roots that are the same. The reason you know this is because the curve touches the x axis, but does not go through the x axis, at 3.

y = (x + 4) (x - 3)(x - 3)

Notice the sign change. x has to have sign change when going from a root to a binomial

The root is - 4. The binomial is (x + 4)

The same argument works for x = 3

c. the solution is 3 times as large as 5x(465x4)
d. the solution is 3 times as large as 5x(465+4)

Answers

Answer:

c. the solution is 3 times as large as 5x(465x4)

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume you are using the letter x as the multiplication sign.

Start with:

15 x (465 x 4)

We know that 15 = 3 x 5

Now we replace 15 with 3 x 5 in the original expression.

15 x (465 x 4) = 3 x 5 x (465 x 4)

Answer: c. the solution is 3 times as large as 5x(465x4)

En la inaguracion de unos juegos olimpicos, los 38 representantes de una nacion quieren desfilar formando columnas de 6¿es posible?¿de que modo podria desfilar formando columnas iguales?

Answers

Answer:

a) No

b) Sí

Step-by-step explanation:

a) En la inauguración de unos Juegos Olímpicos, los 38 representantes de una nación quieren desfilar en columnas de 6, ¿es posible?

Esto se calcula como

38 representantes / 6 columnas

= 6 2/6 = 6 1/3 columnas

No, no es posible, tendríamos 7 columnas con 6 columnas con representantes iguales de 6 y la séptima columna tendría solo 2 representantes allí

b) ¿Cómo podrían desfilar en columnas iguales?

Sí pueden

Esto se calcula como 38 representantes ÷ 2

= 19 columnas

Podemos tener 19 columnas con 2 representantes cada una

Surface area of a cylinder= 2πr (r+h)

The radius is not shown.

Radius= diameter/2

           = 7/2

           = 3.5 in

Surface area= 2xπx3.5 (3.5+8)

                     = 253 in²

*r=radius

h=height

I used the π value from my calculator.

The midpoint of AB‾AB is M(−4,−3)M(−4,−3). If the coordinates of A are (−1,-2)(−1,−2), what are the coordinates of B?

Answers

Answer:

(-7, -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint formula is expressed as;

M (X,Y) = {(x1+x2/2), (y1+y2)/2}

Given that M(-4, -3) and (x1, x2) = (-1, -2)

X = x1+x2/2

-4 = -1+x2/2

-8 = -1 + x2

x2 = -8 + 1

x2 = -7

SImilarly;

Y = y1+y2/2

-3 = -2+y2/2

-3*2 = -2+y2

-6 = -2 + y2

y2 = -6 + 2

y2 = -4

Hence the coordinate of B is (-7, -4)

Part B

Use the box plots to make an inference using the variability of the data.

Answers

Answer:

Median :

P = 2 ; Q = 3.5

Variability :

P = 1.5 ; Q = 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of center we can infer from the box plot is the median, which is the point marked by the vertical line in between the box ;

For Group P:

Median = 2 inches

For Group Q :

Median = 3.5 inches

To infer the variability :

We calculate the interquartile range (IQR) :

IQR = Q3 - Q1

Q3 = Upper quartile (end point of box) ; Q1 = lower quartile (start point of box) in the plot

Locate QI and Q3

Group P:

IQR = Q3 - Q1 = 3 - 1.5 = 1.5

Group Q :

IQR = Q3 - Q1 = 4.5 - 3 = 1.5
