The 8th term in the arithmetic sequence is 17, the 12th term is 25. Find the first term, and the sum of the first 20 terms.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

First term a = 3

Sum of first 20 term = 440

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

8th term of AP = 17

12th term of AP = 25

Find:

First term a

Sum of first 20 term

Computation:

8th term of AP = 17

a + 7d = 17 ....... EQ1

12th term of AP = 25

a + 11d = 25 ...... EQ2

From EQ1 and EQ2

4d = 8

d = 2

a + 7d = 17

a + 7(2) = 17

First term a = 3

Sum of first 20 term

Sn = [n/2][2a + (n-1)d]

S20 = [20/2][(2)(3) + (20-1)2]

S20 = [10][(6) + 38]

S20 = [10][44]

S20 = 440

Sum of first 20 term = 440

A jar contains 11red marbles, 12 blue marbles and 6 white marbles. Four marbles from the jar are selected. With each marble being replaced after each selection. What is the probability that the first red marble chosen is on the 5th selection?

Answers

Answer:

Red on the 5th draw = 0.0907

Step-by-step explanation:

The first to fourth selections are all the same.

Blue + white = 12 + 6 = 18

The total number of marbles is 11 + 12 + 6 = 29

P(~ red) for the first four times = (18/29)^4 = 0,1484

Now on the 5th time, the first red is 11/18

So the Probability is 0.1484 * 11/18 = 0.0907

Can you post the picture in a different angle it’s hard to read it

Answer: See Below

Step-by-step explanation:

Concept:

Here, we need to know the idea of alternative interior angle, alternative exterior angle, and corresponding angles.

Alternative interior angle: a pair of angles on the inner side of each of those two lines but on opposite sides of the transversal.

Alternative exterior angle: a pair of angles on the outer side of each of those two lines but on opposite sides of the transversal.

Corresponding angle: A pair of angles that occupy the same relative position at each intersection where a straight line crosses two others.

All three kinds of angles above occur to be congruent (equal) when the lines are parallel to each other.

If you are still confused, please refer to the attachment below for a graphical explanation

Solve:

PART ONE

a) Name two pairs of alternative exterior angles: ∠1 and ∠7 / ∠2 and ∠8

b) Name two pairs of corresponding angles: ∠1 and ∠5 / ∠2 and ∠6

c) Name two pairs of alternative interior angles: ∠4 and ∠6 / ∠3 and ∠5

PART TWO

a) If the measure of angle 7 is 52°, what is the measure of angle 1?

As we can see from above, ∠1 and ∠7 are alternative exterior angles. They are part of parallel lines, thus according to the properties, they are equal.m∠1 = m∠7 = 52°

b) If the measure of angle 8 is 112°, then what is the measure of angle 3?

As we can see from the figure given, ∠8 and ∠7 are linear pairs or supplementary angles, which adds up to 180°.m∠7 = 180 - m∠8 = 180 - 112 = 68°As we can see from the figure given, ∠7 and ∠3 are corresponding angles.They are part of parallel lines, thus according to the properties, they are equal.m∠3 = m∠7 = 68°

IQ test scores are normally distributed with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15.
(a) Find the IQ scores that represent the bottom 35%.
(b) Find the IQ score that represents the 3rd Quartile.
(c) Find the IQ score for the top 5%.

Answers

Answer:

a) IQ scores of 94.2 and below represent the bottom 35%.

b) An IQ score of 110.1 represents the 3rd quartile.

c) IQ scores of 124.7 and higher are in the top 5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15.

This means that [tex]\mu = 100, \sigma = 15[/tex]

(a) Find the IQ scores that represent the bottom 35%.

The 35th percentile and below, in which the 35th percentile is X when Z has a p-value of 0.35, so X when Z = -0.385.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]-0.385 = \frac{X - 100}{15}[/tex]

[tex]X - 100 = -0.385*15[/tex]

[tex]X = 94.2[/tex]

IQ scores of 94.2 and below represent the bottom 35%.

(b) Find the IQ score that represents the 3rd Quartile.

This is the 100*3/4 = 75th percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.75, so X when Z = 0.675.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]0.675 = \frac{X - 100}{15}[/tex]

[tex]X - 100 = 0.675*15[/tex]

[tex]X = 110.1[/tex]

An IQ score of 110.1 represents the 3rd quartile.

(c) Find the IQ score for the top 5%.

IQ scores of at least the 100 - 5 = 95th percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.95, so X when Z = 1.645.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]1.645 = \frac{X - 100}{15}[/tex]

[tex]X - 100 = 1.645*15[/tex]

[tex]X = 124.7[/tex]

IQ scores of 124.7 and higher are in the top 5%.

Find the number that comes after 144five

Answers

Answer:

The number that comes after 144five is:

Step-by-step explanation:

Adding 1 to 144 base 5 will result in:

144

+  1

= 200

b) To obtain the next number that comes after 144five, add 1five to 144five.  Since the numbers are in base 5, 1five added to 4five will result in 0 with 1 carried backward.  When 1 is added to the next 4, the result will be 0 with 1 carried backward.  1 added to 1 = 2, all in base 5.  Figures in base 5 cannot exceed 4.  The usual numbers for a base 5 operation are 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4.

Economists have found that the amount of corruption in a country's government is correlated to the gross domestic product (GDP) per capita of that country. This can be modeled by y=1400(1.05)^x where x is the corruption score and y is GDP per capita in dollars. Corruption scores range from 0 to 100 with 0 being highly corrupt and 100 being least corrupt.

What does the y-intercept of this function represent?

A. the corruption score needed for a GDP per capita of zero
B. the increase in GDP per capita for every increase of one in corruption score
C. the GDP per capita of a country with a corruption score of zero
D. the GDP per capita necessary to decrease the corruption score by one

Determine whether the given sequence could be arithmetic. If so, identify the first difference and the next term.

Answers

Answer:

The first difference is -5. The next term is -31.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you find the difference between -6 and -11, then you get -5.

And, all the other ones also have differences of -5, so basically, the next term is -31.

Thanks! Please mark me Brainliest!

Answer:

It could be arithmeticIf so, then the first difference is  -5   and the next term is   -31  

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

Explanation:

Pick any term and subtract off the previous term

term2 - term1 = -11 - (-6) = -11 + 6 = -5term3 - term2 = -16 - (-11) = -16 + 11 = -5term4 - term3 = -21 - (-16) = -21 + 16 = -5term5 - term4 = -26 - (-21) = -26 + 21 = -5

No matter what we picked, we end up with the same result which is -5. This is the common difference aka first difference.

If this pattern keeps up forever, then the sequence is arithmetic.

And if the pattern keeps up, then the next term would be

term6 = term5 + (common difference)

term6 = -26 + (-5)

term6 = -31

Note: Adding -5 is the same as subtracting 5.

multiplication between exponentiation number 648

Answers

Answer:

648 is the sum of consecutive prime numbers 317 and 331.

The sixth root of 648 begins with 2.941682753. Notice all the digits from 1 to 9 appear somewhere in those nine decimal places. OEIS.org states that 648 is the smallest number that can make that claim.

From Archimedes-lab.org I learned some powerful facts about the number 648:

16² – 17² + 18² – 19² + 20² – 21² +22² – 23² + 24² – 25² + 26² – 27² + 28² – 29² + 30² – 31² + 32² = 648

48² – 47² + 46² – 45² + 44² – 43² +42² – 41² + 40² – 39² + 38² – 37² + 36² – 35² + 34² – 33² = 648

(1^2)(2^3)(3^4) = 648

648 is a composite number.

Prime factorization: 648 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3, which can be written 648 = (2^3) x (3^4)

The exponents in the prime factorization are 3 and 4. Adding one to each and multiplying we get (3 + 1)(4 + 1) = 4 x 5 = 20. Therefore 648 has exactly 20 factors.

Factors of 648: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 27, 36, 54, 72, 81, 108, 162, 216, 324, 648

A pharmacist wants to make 36ml of a 65% hydrogen peroxide solution. how many pls of 75% hydrogen peroxide must he mix with 57% hydrogen peroxide to make the desired solution?

Answers

Answer:

16 mls of the 75% solution and 20 mls of the 0.57% solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a system of equations:

Let x = volume of 75% solution and y be volume of 57% solution

0.75x + 0.57y = 36*0.65

0.75x + 0.57y = 23.4.......(1)

x + y = 36.........(2)

From equation (2):

y = 36 - x

Substituting this into equation(1):

0.75x + (0.57(36 - x) = 23.4

0.75x + 20.52 - 0.57x = 23.4

0.18x = 23.40 - 20.52 = 2.88

x = 2.88/0.18

x = 16

so from equation (2): y = 36-16 = 20.

Using the relation :

n = (Z² * p * (1 - p)) / M.E²

Zcritical at 90% = 1.645

n = (1.645² * 0.58 * 0.42) / 0.03²

Twenty percent of the cash purchases, 90% of the credit card purchases, and 60% of the debit card purchases are for more than $50. Ms. Tina Stevens just purchased a new dress that cost $120. What is the probability that she paid cash?

Answers

Answer:

Hence the probability that she paid cash is  0.105

Step-by-step explanation:  

P(cash) = 0.3  

P(credit card ) = 0.3  

P(debit card ) = 0.4  

P ( more than $50 | cash ) = 0.2  

P (more than $50 | credit card ) =0.9  

P (more than $ 50 |debit card ) = 0.6  

P ( more than $50) = P ( more than $50 | cash )* P (cash) + P (more than $50 credit card ) * P(credit card ) + P (more than $ 50 |debit card )* P(debit card )  

= 0.2 * 0.3 + 0.9 * 0.3 + 0.6* 0.4  

= 0.57  

P ( more than $50) = P ( more than $50 | cash )* P (cash) / P ( more than $50)  

= 0.2* 0.3 / 0.57  

= 0.105
