The sum of 'n' terms of an arithmetic sequence is 4n^2+3n. What is the first term, the common difference, and the sequence?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The sequence has first term 7 and common difference is 8.

So the sequence is f(n)=7 + 8(n-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a be the first term.

Let a+d be the second term where d is the common difference.

Then a+2d is the third....

And a+(n-1)d is the nth term.

Adding these terms we get:

an+(n-1)(n)/2×d

For the first term of this sum I seen we had n amount of a's and for the second term I used the well known identity sum of the first n positive integers is n(n+1)/2.

Let's simplify:

an+(n-1)(n)/2×d

Distribute:

an+(n^2d/2)-(nd/2)

Find common denominator:

(2an/2)+(n^2d/2)-(nd/2)

Combine terms into one:

(2an+n^2d-nd)/2

Reorder terms:

(n^2d+2an-nd)/2

Regroup terms:

(n^2d+(2a-d)n)/2

We want the following sum though:

4n^2+3n

This means d/2=4 (so d=8) and (2a-d)/2=3.

So plug d=8 into second equation to solve for a.

(2a-8)/2=3

2a-8=6

2a=14

a=7

The sequence has first term 7 and common difference is 8.

So the sequence is f(n)=7 + 8(n-1).

Answers

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to evaluate :-

[tex]\rm\implies \displaystyle\rm\sum^4_n (-1)^n (3n + 2 ) [/tex]

Here the [tex]\Sigma[/tex] is the sum operator . And here we need to find the sum from n = 1 to n = 4 . We can write it as ,

[tex]\rm\implies (-1)^1 ( 3*1 +2) + (-1)^2 ( 3*2+2) + (-1)^3(3*3+2) + (-1)^4(3*4+2) [/tex]

Now we know that for odd powers of -1 , we get -1 and for even powers we get 1 . Therefore ,

[tex]\rm\implies -1 ( 3 + 2 ) + 1 (6+2)+-1(9+2)+1(12+2)[/tex]

Now add the terms inside the brackets and then multiply it with the number outside the bracket . We will get ,

[tex]\rm\implies -1 * 5 + 1 * 8 + -1*11 + 1*14 \\\\\rm\implies -5 + 8 - 11 + 14 \\\\\rm\implies\boxed{\quad 6 \quad}[/tex]

Hence the required answer is 6.

Solve for x.
7(x+2) = 6(x+5)
O x=-44
O X=-16
O x= 44
O x= 16

Answers

Answer:

x = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

7(x + 2) = 6(x + 5)

First, to start solving this problem, we have to distribute the "7" to the "x + 2" in the parenthesis and the "6" to the "x + 5" in the parenthesis.

7x + 14 = 6x + 30

Next, let's subtract "6x" from both sides of this equation!

x + 14 = 30

Now, we have to subtract "14" from both sides of the equation.

x = 16

Lastly! Let's make sure our "x=" equation is correct by inputting our value into the "x" values.

7(16 + 2) = 6(16 + 5)

7(18) = 6(21)

126 = 126

Since our equations equal each other we know that our x-value is correct!

Hope this Helps! :)

Answer:

[tex]P(-1.72<Z<1.72)=0.9146[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Population mean \mu=91

Sample Mean \=x =2.08

Standard Deviation \sigma=10

Sample size n=68

Generally the Probability that The  sample mean  would differ from the population mean

P(|\=x-\mu|<2.08)

From Table

[tex]P(|\=x-\mu|<2.08)=P(|z|<1.72)[/tex]

T Test

[tex]Z=\frac{\=x-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]

[tex]Z=\frac{2.08}{\frac{10}{\sqrt{68} } }[/tex]

[tex]Z=1.72[/tex]

[tex]P(|\=x-\mu|<2.08)=P(|z|<1.72)[/tex]

[tex]P(-1.72<Z<1.72)[/tex]

Therefore From Table

[tex]P(-1.72<Z<1.72)=0.9146[/tex]

y = 2x+b

Substitute the point into the equation and solve for y

3 = 2(1)+b

3 =2+b

1 = b

The y intercept is 1

Y-intercept is (0,1)

A ball is thrown from an initial height of 7 feet with an initial upward velocity of 23 ft/s. The ball's height h (in feet) after 1 seconds is given by the following.
h = 7+23t-16t^2
Find all values of 1 for which the ball's height is 15 feet.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If we are looking for the time(s) that the ball is at a height of 15, we simply sub in a 15 for the height in the position equation and solve for t:

[tex]15=-16t^2+23t+7[/tex] and

[tex]0=-16t^2+23t-8[/tex]

Factor this however you factor a quadratic in class to get

t = .59 seconds and t = .85 seconds.

This means that .59 seconds after the ball was thrown into the air it was 15 feet off the ground. Then the ball reached its max height, gravity took over, and began pulling it back down to earth. The ball passes the height of 15 feet again on its way down after .85 seconds.
