The sum of the first ten terms of an arithmetic progression consisting of

positive integer terms is equal to the sum of the 20th, 21st and 22nd term.

If the first term is less than 20, find how many terms are required to give

a sum of 960.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: [tex]n=13[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Sum of the first 10 terms is equal to sum of 20, 21, and 22 term

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{10}{2}[2a+(10-1)d]=[a+19d]+[a+20d]+[a+21d]\\\\\Rightarrow 5[2a+9d]=3a+60d\\\Rightarrow 10a+45d=3a+60d\\\Rightarrow 7a=15d[/tex]

No of terms to give a sum of 960

[tex]\Rightarrow 960=\dfrac{n}{2}[2a+(n-1)d]\\\\\Rightarrow 1920=n[2a+(n-1)\cdot \dfrac{7}{15}a]\\\\\Rightarrow 28,800=n[30a+7a(n-1)]\\\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{28,800}{n[30+7n-7]}\\\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{28,800}{n[23+7n]}[/tex]

Value of first term is less than 20

[tex]\therefore \dfrac{28,800}{n[23+7n]}<20\\\\\Rightarrow 28,800<20n[23+7n]\\\Rightarrow 0<460n+140n^2-28,800\\\Rightarrow 140n^2+460n-28,800>0\\\\\Rightarrow n>12.79\\\\\text{For integer value }\\\Rightarrow n=13[/tex]

Answer 2

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

In the previous answer halfway through they used the equation: 960 = (n÷2)×(2a+(n-1)×(7a÷15))

Using this equation we can substitute an number to replace n, the higher the number is the smaller a would be.

When we substitute 15 into a, then it leaves us with the answer to be a = 15 which is a positive integer and also is smaller than 20, this then let’s us know that 15 is how many terms can be summed up to make 960.

To double check this answer you can find that d = 7 by changing the a into 15 in the formula 7a/15 (found in the previous answer.

Then in the expression: (n÷2)×(2a+(n-1)×d)

substitute:

n = 14 (must be an even number for the equation to work)

a = 15

d = 7

This will give you an answer of 847, but this is only 14 terms as we changed n into 14. To add the final term you need to complete the following equation: 847+(a+(n-1)×d)

substituting:

n = 15

a = 15

d = 7

This will give you the answer of 960, again proving that it takes 15 terms to sum together to make the number 960.

I hope this has helped you.

P.S. Everything in the previous solution was right apart from the start of the last section and the answer

Answer:   344

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

Explanation:

It might help to draw out the picture as shown below. The pool itself (just the water only) is the inner rectangle. The outer rectangle is the pool plus the border of those 1 by 1 tiles.

The pool is a rectangle 90 feet by 80 feet. If we add on the tiles, then we get a larger rectangle that is 90+2 = 92 feet by 80+2 = 82 feet.

We add on 2 since we're adding two copies of "1" on either side of each dimension.

The larger rectangle's area is 92*82 = 7544 square feet

The smaller rectangle's area is 90*80 = 7200 square feet

The difference in areas is 7544-7200 = 344 square feet.

Each 1 by 1 tile is of area 1*1 = 1 sq foot, meaning that 344 tiles will get us the 344 square foot border around the pool.

In a test of a heat-seeking rocket, a first rocket is launched at 2000 fts and the heat-seeking rocket is launched along the same flight path 20 s later at a speed of 3000 fts. Find
the timest, and t, of flight of the rockets until the heat-seeking rocket destroys the first rocket
What are the times of the flight?

Answers

Answer:

Time of flight of first rocket = 60 seconds

Time of flight of second rocket = 40 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the time of flight of first rocket be t1.

Since the second rocket is launched 20 seconds later, then it means that;

t1 = t2 + 20

Where t2 is the time of flight of the second rocket.

When destruction has occurred, it means that both of the rockets would have covered the same distance.

We know that;

Distance = speed × time

Thus;

2000t1 = 3000t2

We know that t1 = t2 + 20

Thus;

2000(t2 + 20) = 3000t2

2000t2 + 40000 = 3000t2

3000t2 - 2000t2 = 40000

1000t2 = 40000

t2 = 40000/1000

t2 = 40 seconds

Thus;

t1 = 40 + 20

t1 = 60 seconds

The radius of a sphere is increasing at a rate of 2 mm/s. How fast is the volume increasing (in mm3/s) when the diameter is 60 mm?

Answers

Answer:

22608 mm³/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Applying chain rule,

dV/dt = (dV/dr)(dr/dt)............... Equation 1

Where dV/dr = rate at which the volume is increasing

But,

V = 4πr³/3

Therefore,

dV/dr = 4πr²............... Equation 2

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

dV/dt = 4πr²(dr/dt).............. Equation 3

From the question,

Given: dr/dt = 2 mm/s, r = 60/2 = 30 mm

Consatant: π = 3.14

Substitute these values into equation 3

dV/dt = 4×3.14×30²×2

dV/dt = 22608 mm³/s

Assume that there is a 8​% rate of disk drive failure in a year. a. If all your computer data is stored on a hard disk drive with a copy stored on a second hard disk​ drive, what is the probability that during a​ year, you can avoid catastrophe with at least one working​ drive?

Answers

Answer:

0.9936 = 99.36% probability that during a​ year, you can avoid catastrophe with at least one working​ drive

Step-by-step explanation:

For each disk, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it works, or it does not. The probability of a disk working is independent of any other disk, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

Assume that there is a 8​% rate of disk drive failure in a year.

So 100 - 8 = 92% probability of working, which means that [tex]p = 0.92[/tex]

Two disks are used:

This means that [tex]n = 2[/tex]

What is the probability that during a​ year, you can avoid catastrophe with at least one working​ drive?

This is:

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{2,0}.(0.92)^{0}.(0.08)^{2} = 0.0064[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.0064 = 0.9936[/tex]

0.9936 = 99.36% probability that during a​ year, you can avoid catastrophe with at least one working​ drive

X -1 0 1
f(x) 3c 3c 6c

Answers

Answer:

[tex]c = \frac{1}{12}[/tex]

The mean of the distribution is 0.25.

The variance of the distribution is of 0.6875.

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability density function:

For it to be a probability function, the sum of the probabilities must be 1. The probabilities are 3c, 3c and 6c, so:

[tex]3c + 3c + 6c = 1[/tex]

[tex]12c = 1[/tex]

[tex]c = \frac{1}{12}[/tex]

So the probability distribution is:

[tex]P(X = -1) = 3c = 3\frac{1}{12} = \frac{1}{4} = 0.25[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = 3c = 3\frac{1}{12} = \frac{1}{4} = 0.25[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = 6c = 6\frac{1}{12} = \frac{1}{2} = 0.5[/tex]

Mean:

Sum of each outcome multiplied by its probability. So

[tex]E(X) = -1(0.25) + 0(0.25) + 1(0.5) = -0.25 + 0.5 = 0.25[/tex]

The mean of the distribution is 0.25.

Variance:

Sum of the difference squared between each value and the mean, multiplied by its probability. So

[tex]V^2(X) = 0.25(-1-0.25)^2 + 0.25(0 - 0.25)^2 + 0.5(1 - 0.25)^2 = 0.6875[/tex]

The variance of the distribution is of 0.6875.

2. Find all real numbers in the interval [0,2pi) that satisfy the equation.

3sec^2 x tan x =4tan x

3. Simplify the following trigonometric expressions, using identities as needed:

sin(x)/1−cos(x) + 1−cos(x)/sin(x)

Answers

(1) Recall that

sin(x - y) = sin(x) cos(y) - cos(x) sin(y)

sin²(x) + cos²(x) = 1

Given that α lies in the third quadrant, and β lies in the fourth quadrant, we expect to have

• sin(α) < 0 and cos(α) < 0

• sin(β) < 0 and cos(β) > 0

Solve for cos(α) and sin(β) :

cos(α) = -√(1 - sin²(α)) = -3/5

sin(β) = -√(1 - cos²(β)) = -5/13

Then

sin(α - β) = sin(α) cos(β) - cos(α) sin(β) =  (-4/5) (12/13) - (-3/5) (-5/13)

==>   sin(α - β) = -63/65

(2) In the second identity listed above, multiplying through both sides by 1/cos²(x) gives another identity,

sin²(x)/cos²(x) + cos²(x)/cos²(x) = 1/cos²(x)

==>   tan²(x) + 1 = sec²(x)

Rewrite the equation as

3 sec²(x) tan(x) = 4 tan(x)

3 (tan²(x) + 1) tan(x) = 4 tan(x)

3 tan³(x) + 3 tan(x) = 4 tan(x)

3 tan³(x) - tan(x) = 0

tan(x) (3 tan²(x) - 1) = 0

Solve for x :

tan(x) = 0   or   3 tan²(x) - 1 = 0

tan(x) = 0   or   tan²(x) = 1/3

tan(x) = 0   or   tan(x) = ±√(1/3)

x = arctan(0) +   or   x = arctan(1/√3) +   or   x = arctan(-1/√3) +

x =   or   x = π/6 +   or   x = -π/6 +

where n is any integer. In the interval [0, 2π), we get the solutions

x = 0, π/6, 5π/6, π, 7π/6, 11π/6

(3) You only need to rewrite the first term:

[tex]\dfrac{\sin(x)}{1-\cos(x)} \times \dfrac{1+\cos(x)}{1+\cos(x)} = \dfrac{\sin(x)(1+\cos(x))}{1-\cos^2(x)} = \dfrac{\sin(x)(1+\cos(x)}{\sin^2(x)} = \dfrac{1+\cos(x)}{\sin(x)}[/tex]

Then

[tex]\dfrac{\sin(x)}{1-\cos(x)}+\dfrac{1-\cos(x)}{\sin(x)} = \dfrac{1+\cos(x)+1-\cos(x)}{\sin(x)}=\dfrac2{\sin(x)}[/tex]

You are dealt one card from a 52-card deck.

a) Find the odds in favor of getting a red king.

b) Find the odds against getting a red king.

Answers

Answer:

(a)So, there are 2 kings in red- one of hearts and the other of diamonds. Therefore, the probability of selecting a red king from a deck of cards= 2/52 or 1/26.

(b) There are 6 red face cards in a 52-card deck (so 46 other cards). PROBABILITIES compare the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of possible outcomes: The PROBABILITY of getting a red face card is 6/52 = 3/26.

The odds in favor of getting a red king will be 1/26. And the odds against getting a red king will be 25/26.

What is probability?

Its basic premise is that something will almost certainly happen. The percentage of favorable events to the total number of occurrences.

You are dealt one card from a 52-card deck.

Total events = 52

The odds in favor of getting a red king will be

Favorable events = 2

Then the probability will be

P = 2/52

P = 1/26

The odds against getting a red king will be

q = 1 – P

q = 1 – 1/26

q = 25/26
