How many poles will there be in a stack of telephone piles if there are 58 in the first layer, 57 in the second, 56 in the third, and so on, with 12 in the top layer?
Answer:
1,645 poles
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to calculate the total number of poles
We can have an arithmetic progression here
Where the last term is the 58 piles , the first term is the top layer which is 12 and the common difference between the piles is 1
Firstly, we calculate the number of stacks which can be obtained using the nth term formula;
Tn = a + (n-1)d
58 = 12 + (n-1)1
58 = 12 + n - 1
58 = n + 11
n = 58-11
n = 47
So we have the stack high up to 47 units
So, using the sum of terms in an arithmetic sequence formula, we have;
Sn = n/2 ( a + L)
where a is the first term 12 and L is the last term 58
Thus, we have
Sn = 47/2( 12 + 58)
Sn = 47/2 * 70
Sn = 1,645
What is the explicit formula for the geometric sequence 2, 6, 18, 54, …?
Answer:
3x
Step-by-step explanation:
You multiply the pervious number with 3 to get the next number
For example 2 times 3 = 6
6 times 3 = 18
18 times 3 =54
54 times 3= 162
So on and so forth

a line goes through the points (6,3) and (-6,-3). Find its slope provide the answer as a fraction simplified in lowest
Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
y2 - y1 / x2 - x1
-3 - 3 / -6 - 6
-6 / -12
= 1/2
We want to find the slope of a line given that we know that the line passes through the points (6, 3) and (-6, -3).
We will find that the slope is: 1/2
A general line can be written as:
[tex]y = a\cdot x + b[/tex]
Where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
If the line passes through the points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) then we can write the slope as:
[tex]a = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]
We know that our line passes through (6, 3) and (-6, -3), then the slope of our line will be:
[tex]a = \frac{-3 - 3}{-6 - 6} = \frac{-6}{-12}[/tex]
Now to simplify this, we know that:
-12 = 2×(-6)
Replacing that in the above equation we get:
[tex]a = \frac{-3 - 3}{-6 - 6} = \frac{-6}{-12} = \frac{-6}{2\cdot -6} = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Then the slope written as a simplified fraction is:
a = 1/2

108 students choose to attend one of three after school activities: football, tennis or running. There are 40 boys. 37 students choose football, of which 26 are girls. 39 students choose tennis. 12 girls choose running. A student is selected at random. What is the probability this student chose running? Give your answer in its simplest form.
Answer:
8/27
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we figure out how many students chose each school activity, so that we can find the probability of a student at random choosing running by putting (total running students)/(all students).
39 students chose tennis, as stated in the problem.
37 students chose football, as stated in the problem.
The total number of students who chose running must therefore be the the students who chose tennis and football, subtracted from the total number of students. 108 - 39 - 37 = 32, so 32 students chose running.
Therefore, the probability that a student at random chose running would be 32/108 or 8/27.

A bag contains balls of five different colors. Two are red, three are blue, ten are white, four are green and three are black. Balls are taken from the bag without looking, and not returned. What is the smallest number of balls that should be taken from the bag to be sure that two balls of the same color have been taken? please explain with the answer
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
The worst scenario is that of a slight possibility, the first 5 balls you took are completely different color. The chance of this happening is tiny, but if you want to be sure, then you should consider about it.
But, after taking out the sixth ball, you can be sure that the ball, now right on your hand, must share a same color with at least one of the balls you took out, since there are only five colors.
If line a has a slope of -3 and is perpendicular to line b, what would is the slope of line b?
Answer:
Slope of line B: 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
To find a slope perpendicular to another slope, you take its negative reciprocal.
Therefore, line B will have a slope of 1/3 because -3 -> -1/3 -> 1/3

Find the sum of the first 31 terms of the following series, to the nearest integer.
5, 14,23,...
Answer:
4340.
Step-by-step explanation:
14-5 = 9 and 23-14 = 9 so this is an arithmetic series with common difference of 9.
Sum of n terms = (n/2)[2a1 + d(n - 1)]
Here n = 31, d = 9 and a1 = 5.
So, substituting, we have:
Sum of 31 terms = (31/2)[2*5 + 9(31-1)]
= 15.5 * 280
= 4340.

PLS HELP Find the value of x.
A. 4
B. 2
C. 7
D. 14
Answer:
ANSWER IS B
Step-by-step explanation:
5x - 3 = 3x + 1
5x - 3x = 1 + 3
2x = 4
x = 4/2
x = 2
Answer:
B. 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The sides 5x - 3 and 3x + 1 are the same length, so you can put an equal sign: 5x - 3 = 3x + 1, x = 2:
5(2) - 3 = 3(2) + 1
10 - 3 = 6 + 1
7 = 7
So x is 2
In a normal distribution, what is the probability that a data value will fall below the
data value associated with a z -score of 3.37?
A 99.96%
B 0.04%
C 1%
D 99.95%
Answer:
A 99.96%
Step-by-step explanation:
The z score shows by how many standard deviations the raw score is above or below the mean. The z score is positive if the raw score is above the mean while the z score is negative if the raw score is below the mean. The z score is given by:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma} \\\\where\ z=z-score,\ x=raw\ score,\mu=mean, \ \sigma=standard\ deviation\\\\For\ a\ sample\ size(n):\\\\z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n} }[/tex]
The probability can be gotten from the normal distribution table. Therefore from the normal table:
P(z < 3.37) = 0.9996 = 99.96%
On the coordinate plane, point T is located at (0,7) and point U is located at (x,-5). The distance between points T and U is 15 units.
What are the two possible values of x?
Answer:
x = 9 or x = -9
Step-by-step explanation:
The parameters of the given points are;
The location of the point T = (0, 7)
The location of the point U = (x, -5)
Then distance between points T and U = 15 units
The distance between points A and B, 'd', given their coordinates, A(x₁, y₁) and B(x₂, y₂) is found using the following formula;
[tex]d=\sqrt{\left (y_{2}-y_{1} \right )^{2}+\left (x_{2}-x_{1} \right )^{2}}[/tex]
Therefore, for the given points, T(0, 7) and U(x, -5), we get;
[tex]15 = \sqrt{\left ((-5) - 7 \right )^{2}+\left (x - 0 \right )^{2}}[/tex]
Squaring both sides, gives;
[tex]15^2 = \left ((-5) - 7 \right )^{2}+\left (x - 0 \right )^{2}} = (-12)^2 + x^2[/tex]
∴ x² = 15² - (-12)² = 81 = 9²
x² = 9²
∴ x = ±√(9²) = ± 9
The possible values of x are x = 9 or x = -9

Andrew is using tiles to decorate a rectangular table that is 4/5 meter long and 2/3 meter wide. What is the area of Andrews table in square meters
Given:
Length of rectangular table = [tex]\dfrac{4}{5}[/tex] meter
Width of rectangular table = [tex]\dfrac{2}{3}[/tex] meter
To find:
The area of the table.
Solution:
Area of a rectangle is:
[tex]A=l\times w[/tex]
Where, l is the length and w is the width.
Substitute [tex]l=\dfrac{4}{5}[/tex] and [tex]w=\dfrac{2}{3}[/tex] in the above formula to find the area of the rectangular table.
[tex]A=\dfrac{4}{5}\times \dfrac{2}{3}[/tex]
[tex]A=\dfrac{8}{15}[/tex]
Therefore, the area oft he table is [tex]\dfrac{8}{15}[/tex] square meters.
Chen can jump rope 60 times a minute. At that rate, how many jumps can he make in 9 minutes?
Answer:
540 jumps in 9 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
60 jumps a minute. Chen is fast, but we need to find how many jumps in 9 minutes.
Let's say one minute is m
m = 60
9m = 60x9
We do x9 because from m to 9m you need to multiply by 9, so lets do that on both sides.
9m = 540
9 minutes = 540 jumps
Hope this helps!

y = [tex]-\frac{4}{5}x[/tex] + 4 (Divide all by 5 to isolate y)
