nth term of an AP is given by an expression 7n-2,find the common difference of this sequence if fisrt term of sequence is 1? a.2 b.-2 c-7 d7​

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

there is something wrong with what your write here as problem description.

either there is something missing in the main expression, or in the answer options.

given your nth-term expression 7n-2, none of the 4 answer options can fit.

so, I thought, maybe there was a typo.

the possible interpretations of the expression could be

7n - 2

7(n-2)

[tex] {7}^{n} - 2[/tex]

[tex] {7}^{n - 2} [/tex]

we know that

a1 = 1

a2 = either

a1 + 2 = 3

a1 - 2 = -1

a1 + 7 = 8

a1 - 7 = -6

so, we can eliminate both negative answer options, because they would cause only negative sequence elements, but the main expression (neither of the 4 possibilities) does not allow that.

but also none of the 4 possibilities of the expression delivers any of the 4 values for a2 as described above.

7×2 - 2 = 14 - 2 = 12

7(2-2) = 7×0 = 0

7² - 2 = 49 - 2 = 47

[tex] {7}^{2 - 2} = {7}^{0} = 1[/tex]

similar not for a3.

so, if I consider your answer options right, we have 4 possible arithmetic sequences:

1. 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, ...

2. 1, -1, -3, -5, -7, -9, -11, -13, ...

3. 1, 8, 15, 22, 29, 36, 43, 50, ...

4. 1, -6, -13, -20, -27, -34, -41, ...

the nth term expression is for

a. an = 2n - 1

b. an = 2×(-n) + 3 = 2×(-n + 1) + 1

c. an = 7n - 6

d. an = 7×(-n) + 8 = 7×(-n + 1) + 1

so, please pick the right expression from this list, and then use the answer option with the same letter.

Solve this equation

Answers

The solution and answer are well written in the Pic above.

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x  + 6 = x -4

Subtract 6 from both sides

2x  = x - 4 +6

2x = x + 2

Subtract 'x' from both sides

2x - x = 2

x = 2

A certain medical test is known to detect 59% of the people who are afflicted with the disease Y. If 10 people with the disease are administered the test, what is the probability that the test will show that:

Answers

Answer:

[tex]P(x = 3) = 0.048[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]n = 10[/tex]

[tex]p=59\% = 0.59[/tex]

Required

[tex]P(x = 3)[/tex] --- probability that 3 are afflicted

This question illustrates binomial probability and it is calcuated using:

[tex]P(x) = ^nC_x * p^x * (1 - p)^{n-x}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]P(x = 3) = ^{10}C_3 * 0.59^3 * (1 - 0.59)^{10-3}[/tex]

[tex]P(x = 3) = ^{10}C_3 * 0.59^3 * 0.41^7[/tex]

[tex]P(x = 3) = 120 * 0.59^3 * 0.41^7[/tex]

[tex]P(x = 3) = 0.048[/tex]

A rectangular floor of area 360 m2 is going to be tiled. Each tile is rectangular, and has an area of 240 cm2. An exact number of tiles can be put into the space. How many tiles will be... Solve quickly​

Answers

Answer:

1500

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the regtangular floor is 360m². The floor is going to be retired with tiles having area of 240cm² . We need to find the number of times . Therefore ,

[tex]\implies 360m^2 = 360 \times 10^4 \ cm^2 [/tex]

And , the number of tiles required will be ,

[tex]\implies n =\dfrac{Area \ of \ floor}{Area \ of \ a \ tile }\\\\\implies n =\dfrac{ 360 \times 10^4 \ cm^2}{240 cm^2} \\\\\implies \underline{\underline{ n = 1,500 }}[/tex]

Hence the required answer is 1500 .

[tex]\boxed{\text{Solving for 'x'...}}\\\\-8x-4(x-4)=88\\-------------\\\rightarrow -8x-4x+16=88\\\\\rightarrow -12x + 16 = 88\\\\\rightarrow -12x + 16 - 16 = 88 - 16\\\\\rightarrow -12x = 72\\\\\rightarrow \frac{-12x=72}{12}\\\\\rightarrow \boxed{x=-6}[/tex]

⸻⸻⸻⸻

»»————- ★ ————-««  

Hope this helps you. I apologize if it’s incorrect.  

Answer: x = -6

Step-by-step explanation: Start by changing the - 4 to plus a negative 4 so that you know you're distributing a -4 through the parentheses.

So we have -8x - 4x + 16 = 88.

Simplifying the left side further gives us -12x + 16 = 88.

Now subtract 16 from both sides to get -12x = 72.

From here it should be easy to find the x = -6.

Marlene earns $12,800 per year. 15% is taken from her earnings for taxes. how much money is paid in taxes? how much money is left for Marlene to spend???

Answers

Answer:

$1,920

$10,880

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount marlene earns per year = $12,800

Percentage of taxes = 15%

how much money is paid in taxes?

Amount of tax Marlene pays = 15% of $12,800

= 15/100 × $12,800

= 0.15 × $12,800

= $1,920

how much money is left for Marlene to spend?

Amount left for Marlene to spend = Amount marlene earns per year - Amount of tax Marlene pays

= $12,800 - $1,920

= $10,880

A student can walk to school in 3/4 of an hour. She can ride to school in 1/6 of that time. What fraction of an hour does it take the student to bike to school?

Answers

Answer:

It takes 1/8 of an hour for the student to bike to school.

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find 1/6 of 3/4, as that is how long it takes her to ride to school. When taking one fraction of another, we can multiply them. We can apply this to get

1/6 * 3/4 = 3/24 = 1/8.  This means that it takes 1/8 of an hour for the student to bike to school.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

They appear to be linear so that's easy enough to find out. What we are being asked is to find the equation represented by each table. Knowing that they are linear, we need the slope of each one and then the y-intercept of each one (each "one" being each table). Let's begin with the y-intercept. The y-intercepts exist where x = 0. In the first table, where x = 0, y = -4; in the second table, where x = 0, y = 3.

The equation we will finally fill in is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Solving for slope in the first table:

[tex]m=\frac{-4-(-7)}{0-(-1)}=\frac{3}{1}=3[/tex] and the equation for this table is

y = 3x - 4

Solving for the slope in the second table:

[tex]m=\frac{3-4}{0-(-1)}=\frac{-1}{1}=-1[/tex] and the equation for this table is

y = -1x + 3 or just y = -x + 3

The prime factorization of K is: K = 3x5x7. List all the composite factors of K.

Answers

A composite number is a positive integer that has more than two different factors. For example, composite number include 4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15, 16, 18...etc.

So, if we multiply 3x5x7=105  

All the factors of 105 are 1, 3, 5, 7, 15, 21, 35, 105. So we just need to figure out the factors that are composite which are

The list all the composite factors of K : 15, 21, 35, 105

What is prime integer?

"It is an integer that has only two different factors 1 and that integer itself."

What is prime factorization of a number?

"It is a method to find the prime factors of a given number."

What is composite integer?

"It is an integer that has more than two different factors. "

For given question,

The prime factorization of K is:

K = 3 × 5 × 7

This means the number K is, 3 × 5 × 7 = 105

The factors of 105 are: 1, 3, 5, 7, 15, 21, 35, 105.

We need to list all the composite factors of K.

From above factors of 105 we can observe that,

15 has factors 1, 3, 5, 15;

21 has factors 1, 3, 7, 21;

35 has factors 1, 5, 7, 35;

and 105 has more than two factors factors as mentioned above.

This means, the numbers 15, 21, 35 and 105 are composite numbers.

Therefore, the list all the composite factors of K : 15, 21, 35, 105

Answer:

Number of fish in 2006 = 845 fishes (Approx.)

Decreasing rate = 5% per year

Find:

Number of fish in 2006

Computation:

Exponential decay function:

F = P[1-r]ⁿ

Number of year = 2006 - 2000

Number of year =  6 year

Number of fish in 2006 = 1,150[1-5%]⁶

Number of fish in 2006 = 1,150[1-0.05]⁶

Number of fish in 2006 = 1,150[0.95]⁶

Number of fish in 2006 = 1,150[0.735]

Number of fish in 2006 = 845.25

As x increases by 1 unit, what is the exponential growth factor??

Answers

Given:

The graph of an exponential function.

To find:

The exponential growth factor as x increases by 1 unit.

Solution:

From the given graph, it is clear that the exponential function passes through the points (1,1) and (3,9). So, the equation of the exponential must must be satisfy by these points.

The general exponential function is:

[tex]y=ab^x[/tex]                 ...(i)

Where, a is the initial value and b is the growth factor.

Putting [tex]x=1,y=1[/tex] in (i), we get

[tex]1=ab^1[/tex]                  ...(ii)

Putting [tex]x=3,y=9[/tex] in (i), we get

[tex]9=ab^3[/tex]                  ...(iii)

Divide (iii) by (ii).

[tex]\dfrac{9}{1}=\dfrac{ab^3}{ab}[/tex]

[tex]9=b^2[/tex]

[tex]3=b[/tex]

b is the the growth factor and the value of b is 3.

Therefore, the exponential growth factor is 3 as x increases by 1 unit.
