the product of two consecutive terms of the Arithmetic sequence 5,8,11.....is 598.find the position of the term?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Common difference is 3.

Let x be a term in the sequence. The next term in the sequence is x+3.

x(x+3) = 598

x² + 3x - 598 = 0

x = [-3 ± √(3²-4⋅1(-598))]/[2⋅1] = [-3 ± 49]/2 = 23, -26

-26 is an extraneous solution, so x = 23.

The two terms are 23 and 26.

PLEASE HELP WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!!!! You work for a consumer advocate agency and want to find the mean repair
cost of a washing machine. As part of your study, you randomly select 40
repair costs and find the mean to be $120.00. The sample standard deviation
is $17.50. The 99% confidence interval for the population mean repair cost is? A.(112.86, 127.14) B.(114.58, 125.42) C. (115.43, 124.57) D. (111.57, 128.43)

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is - A.(112.86, 127.14)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

mean = $120

sd = $17.50

n = 40

Solution:

Confidence interval for a populationcan be express as mean +/- margin of error (E)

degree of freedom = n-1 = 40-1 = 39

confidence level (C) = 99% = 0.01

significance level = 1 - C = 1 - 0.01 = 0.99 = 99%

 by margin of error E = t×sd/√n = 2.58*17.50/√40

= 2.58*2.76

= 7.138 or 7.14

then the lower limit of mean = mean - E = 120 - 7.14 = $112.86

and, the upper limit of population mean = mean + E = 120 + 7.14 = $127.14

Step-by-step explanation:

The median goes from the vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side, so

LN = NM , that is

3x - 7 = 5 ( add 7 to both sides )

3x = 12 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 4

Then

| 3 x - 2 | = 4x + 4

Answers

Answer: -2/7

|3x - 2| - 4x = 4

1) (3х - 2) - 4х = 4, if 3x - 2 >= 0

2) -(3x - 2) - 4x = 4, if 3x - 2 < 0

1)

3х - 4х = 4 + 2

-x = 6

x = -6

3х - 2 >= 0

3х >= 2

x >= 2/3 - wrong

Sal washed 5 cars in 50 minutes. What is the unit rate?

Answers

Answer:

since Sal washed 5 cars in 50 minutes, we can express his time as follow:

[tex] \frac{5 \: cars}{50 \: minutes} [/tex]

simplifying it by diving by 5, we get:

[tex] \frac{1 \: car}{10 \: minutes} [/tex]

Thus the rate will be 10 minutes per car (10 min/car)

Answer:

10 mins / car

Step-by-step explanation:

50 / 5 = 10

Answers

Answer:

C. 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph descends from the left  so the coefficient of the leading term is negative. It is also a cubic equation with zeros of -20, about 6.5 and about 13. so we can write the equation as below.  The last 2 values can only be guessed because the x axis only shows values which are multiples of 5.

f(x) = a(x + 20)(x - 6.5)(x - 13)   where a is  a negative constant.

(This is only an approximation).

By the Remainder theorem, when the expression is divided by (x + 10):

f(-10) = -20 so we have

-20 = a (-10 + 20)(-10-6.5)(-10 - 13)

(10)(-16.5)(-23)a = -20

a = -20 / (10)(-16.5)(-23)

a = -0.0053

When  the equation is divided by (x - 10) then f(10)  is the remainder so substituting we have as the remainder:

-0.0053(10+20)(10-6.5)(10 -13)

-0.0053 * 30 * 3.5 * -3

= 1.7 approximately.

Looks like the answer is 2.

Function g can be thought of as a scaled version of f(x)=|x|

Answers

Answer:

g(x) = 1/2 |x|

Step-by-step explanation:

Scaling f(x) means it's of the form g(x) = a|x|

From the graph, it appears to pass through the point (2, 1). By subbing in the values for this point, the equation can be found to be:

1 = a|2|

a = 1/2

Therefore, g(x) = 1/2 |x|

How would I find cos(180º) without a calculator?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The cos of an angle is the adjacent / hypotenuse.

In this case the adjacent and hypotenuse are the same length so the answer is 1 in some form.

You are going left when you talk about 180 degrees. So the adjacent = - 1

The answer you want is -1 / 1

Cos(180) = - 1

Draw the graphs of the pair of linear equations : x + 2y = 5 and 2x - 3y = -4 Also find the points where the lines meet the x - axis .

Answers

Answer:

(1, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation of the lines x + 2y = 5 and 2x - 3y = -4

First we need to make x the subject of the formulas

For x+2y = 5

x = 5 - 2y ... 1

For 2x - 3y = -4

2x = -4+3y

x = (-4+3y)/2 ... 2

Equate 1 and 2

5 - 2y =  (-4+3y)/2

2(5-2y) = -4+3y

10 - 4y = -4+3y

-4 -3y = -4-10

-7y = -14

y = 14/7

y = 2

Substitute y = 2 into 1

x = 5 = 2y

x = 5 - 2(2)

x = 5 - 4

x = 1

Hence the point where the lines meet will be at (1, 2)

31 = 2*13+ (1+3) + 2

31 =? 26 + 4 + 2

Answer:

3300cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

30cm+30cm=60cm 60cm is the lengh of the whole joint structure.We will put it in the equation as "a".

heigh stays the same(10cm) because the pieces are not stacked one on top of the other.They are joined on their sides.We will put it as "c".

Widht also stays the same.its 15 cm and we will put it as letter "b".

So

a=60cm

b=15cm

c=10cm

We need to calculate the surface area of the entire joint structure.

1.First thing to do is to calculate the top part which is:

a*b=15*60=900cm²

2.The bootom side is the same 900cm².

3.The front side is:

a*c=60*10=600cm²

4.The back side is the same as front so it is 600cm².

5.The left side is:

c*b=10*15=150cm²

6.The right side is the same as the left and it is 150cm²

Now we just add it up.

S(surface)=900*2+600*2+150*2=3300cm²

If you want the whole exercise in one equation:

S=2*(a*b)+2*(a*c)+2*(b*c)
