the 11th term of an arithmetic sequence is 57 and the sum of the first and fourth term is 29. determine the first three terms of the sequence, the formular of nth term​

Answers

Answer 1

Let a (n) denote the n-th term of the sequence. Since the terms form an arithmetic sequence, you have

a (n) = a (n - 1) + d

for some fixed constant d. You can write any term in the sequence as a function of the first term:

a (n) = [a (n - 2) + d] + d = a (n - 2) + 2d

a (n) = [a (n - 3) + d] + 2d = a (n - 3) + 3d

and so on, down to

a (n) = a (1) + (n - 1) d

so given that a (11) = 57 (so that n = 11), you have

a (1) + 10d = 57 … … … [1]

The sum of the first and fourth terms is 29:

a (1) + a (4) = 29

but we can write a (4) in terms of a (1) :

a (1) + [a (1) + 3d] = 29

which gives us another equation in a (1) and d :

2 a (1) + 3d = 29 … … … [2]

Now solve [1] and [2] :

-2 (a (1) + 10d) + (2 a (1) + 3d) = -2 (57) + 29

-17d = -85

d = 5

a (1) + 10d = a (1) + 50 = 57

a (1) = 7

Then the n-th term of the sequence is given by

a (n) = 7 + 5 (n - 1) = 5n + 2

Answers

Answer:

5sqrt(5) = q

-5sqrt(5) = q

Step-by-step explanation:

f(q) = q^2 -125

To find the roots set the equation equal to zero

0 = q^2 -125

Add 125 to each side

125 = q^2 -125+125

125 = q^2

Take the square root of each side

±sqrt(125) = sqrt(q^2)

±sqrt( 5*25) = q

±sqrt( 25)* sqrt(5) = q

±5* sqrt(5) = q

Find the critical value for the test (for significance level of 0.1).

Answers

Answer:

Critical value ≈ 1.299

Step-by-step explanation:

number of Kidney transplant ( n )  = 49

Determine the critical value for the test

the sample mean = ∑ failure time / n  = 1252.28 / 49 = 25.56

next we determine the standard deviation of the sample

s = [tex]\sqrt{1/(n-1)(xi -X ) ^2}[/tex] = 17.3126

standard error = s / √n  = 17.3126 / 7 = 2.4732

Given  a significance level of 0.1

df (degree of freedom ) = n -1 = 49 - 1 = 48

∝ = 0.1

critical value = 1.299 ( using excel function ; =T.INV(0.90,48) )

A 3 foot wide painting should be centered on 13 foot wide wall how many feet should be on each side of the painting

Answers

Answer:

5 feet of wall should be on each side of the painting.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a 3 foot wide painting should be centered on 13 foot wide wall, to determine how many feet should be on each side of the painting, the following calculations must be performed:

(13 - 3) / 2 = X

10/2 = X

5 = X

Therefore, 5 feet of wall should be on each side of the painting.

How would you write the equation with a slope of 2/3 and a y-intercept of -3 in slope- intercept form

Answers

y=2/3x-2

Explanation:

The equation of a line can be written as y=mx+c

m=slope and c = y-intercept

The point at the x−intercept has coordinates (-3,0)

In y=mx+c

0=2/3(3)+c

0=2+c

-2=c

The equation is y=2/3x-2

Answer:

[tex] y = \frac{2}{3} x - 3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope (m) = 2/3

y-intercept (b) = - 3

Equation of line in slope intercept form is given as:

[tex] y = mx + b[/tex]

Plug the values of m and b in the above equation, we find:

[tex]y = \frac{2}{3} x + ( - 3) \\ \\ y = \frac{2}{3} x - 3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

10% of 24= 2.4

5% of 24 = 1.2

2.4 + 1.2= 3.6

This means she is saving $3.60 because 15% of $24 is $3.60! :)

Jana save $3.6 to buy a shirt.

What is mean by Percentage?

A number or ratio that can be expressed as a fraction of 100 or a relative value indicating hundredth part of any quantity is called percentage.

Given that;

The shirt is normally $24, but today it is on sale for 15% off.

Now,

Since, The shirt is normally $24, but today it is on sale for 15% off.

Hence, The save money = 15% of 24

                                       = 15/100 × 24

                                       = $3.6

Thus, She save $3.6 on the shirt.

Kelko wrapped 20 gifts. Keiko wrapped 4 times as many gifts as Henry. Let be the number of gifts that Henry wrapped.

(a) Write an equation that relates the number of gifts that they wrapped.
Use 4, 20, and n.
(b) Find n.
2

Answers

Answer:

20 = 4n

n = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Number of gifts Keiko wrapped = 20

Let number of gifts wrapped by Henry = n

Keiko wrapped 4 times as many gifts as Henry

Hence,

20 = 4n

The equation that relates the number of gifts wrapped is :

20 = 4n

To obtain n ;

Divide both sides by 4 to isolate n

20/ 4 = 4n / 4

5 = n

Hence,

n = 5

Find:

Perimeter of rectangle EFGH

Computation:

Distance = √(x1 - x2)² + (y1 - y2)²

Distance between EF = √(4 - 10)² + (2 - 2)²

Distance between EF = √36

Distance between EF = 6units

Distance between FG = √(10 - 10)² + (2 - 8)²

Distance between FG = √36

Distance between FG = 6 units

Distance between GH = √(10 - 4)² + (8 - 8)²

Distance between GH = √36

Distance between GH = 6 units

Distance between HE = √(4 - 4)² + (8 - 2)²

Distance between HE = √36

Distance between HE = 6 units

Perimeter of rectangle EFGH = 6 + 6 + 6 + 6

Answers

Answer:

Two additional solutions are:

(21, 1/3)

(17, 5/3)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the equation:

x + 3*y = 22

Now we want to find two solutions (x, y).

To do this, we first need to rewrite the equation, we need to isolate one of the variables on one side of the equation.

Let's isolate x.

x = 22 - 3*y

Now we can change the value of y by a known value, and then solve the equation for x.

For example, if we define:

y = 1/3

then:

x = 22 - 3*(1/3)

x = 22 - 1 = 21

x = 21

Then the point (21, 1/3) is a solution of the equation.

Now let's input another value of y, for example, we can use y = 5/3

(in both cases I used the denominator equal to 3, because the "y" variable is multiplied by 3), replacing that in the equation we get.

x = 22 - 3*(5/3)

x = 22 - 5

x = 17

Then the point (17, 5/3) is a solution of the equation.

A company is going to make an oil container in the shape of a cylinder. As shown below, the container will have a height of 6m and a diameter of 6m.

If necessary, refer to the list of geometry formulas. For your calculations, do not round any intermediate steps, and use the π button on the ALEKS calculator. Round your answer to the nearest cent

Answers

Answer:

The cost of required steel is [tex]169.56 *27 = 4578.12[/tex] dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of cylinder will be equivalent to the area of the steel sheet.

Surface area of cylinder [tex]= 2\pi rh+2\pi r^2[/tex]

Substituting the given values we get

Surface area of cylinder

[tex]= 2*3.14*3*6 + 2*3.14 *3^2\\= 169.56[/tex]square meter

Cost of 1 square meter of steel is  $27

Then, the cost of required steel is

[tex]169.56 *27 = 4578.12[/tex] dollars

If p is inversely proportional to the square of q, and p is 25 when q is 3, determine p
when q is equal to 5.

Answers

Answer:

p = 9 when q = 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

p is inversely proportional to the square of q

This means that:

[tex]p = \frac{k}{q^2}[/tex]

In which k is a constant multiplier.

p is 25 when q is 3

We use this to find k.

[tex]p = \frac{k}{q^2}[/tex]

[tex]25 = \frac{k}{3^2}[/tex]

[tex]k = 25*9 = 225[/tex]

So

[tex]p = \frac{225}{q^2}[/tex]

Determine p when q is equal to 5.

[tex]p = \frac{225}{q^2} = \frac{225}{5^2} = 9[/tex]

p = 9 when q = 5.

The trigonometric function gives the ratio of different sides of a right-angle triangle. The value of cos(θ) in the given triangle is 0.6.    

What are Trigonometric functions?

The trigonometric function gives the ratio of different sides of a right-angle triangle.

[tex]\rm \sin \theta=\dfrac{Perpendicular}{Hypotenuse}\\\\\\\cos \theta=\dfrac{Base}{Hypotenuse}\\\\\\\tan \theta=\dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}\\\\\\[/tex]

where perpendicular is the side of the triangle which is opposite to the angle, and the hypotenuse is the longest side of the triangle which is opposite to the 90° angle.

In a right angle, the cosine function of trigonometry is the ratio of the base of the triangle and the hypotenuse of the triangle.

For angle θ, the dimension of the triangle will be,

Perpendicular = 16

Base = 12

Hypotenuse = 20

Now, the measure of cos(θ) will be,

Cos(θ) = Base / Hypotenuse

           = 12 / 20

           = 6 / 10

           = 0.6

Hence, the value of cos(θ) in the given triangle is 0.6.

What is Ferris wheel?

A Ferris wheel is an amusement park ride consisting of a large vertical wheel with places for people to sit or stand spaced evenly around the outer circumference.

What is the standard equation of the circle?

The standard equation of the circle is

[tex](x-h)^{2} +(y-k)^{2}= r^{2}[/tex]

Where,

(h, k) is the center of the circle

and, r is the radius of the circle

According to the given question.

The diameter of the Ferris wheel is 200 feet

[tex]\implies radius\ of \ the\ Ferris\ wheel = \frac{200}{2} = 100feet[/tex]

Height of the platform = 7 × 7.5 = 52.5 inches = 4.375 feet

Therefore,
