Answer 1

Answer:

First term is 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

[tex]a_{7} =3\\d=-2[/tex]

Now,

[tex]a+6d=3.....(1)\\a_{n} =a+(n-1)d\\\\\\From equation (1)\\a+6(-2)=3\\a-12=3\\a=12+3\\a=15[/tex]

Therefore first term a =15

Prove the formula that:
((∃x)(F(x)∧S(x))→(∀y)(M(y)→W(y)))∧((∃y)(M(y)∧¬W(y)))
⇒(∀x)(F(x)→¬S(x))

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: [∀x(L(x) → A(x))] →

[∀x(L(x) ∧ ∃y(L(y) ∧ H(x, y)) → ∃y(A(y) ∧ H(x, y)))]

To prove, we shall follow a proof by contradiction. We shall include the negation of the conclusion for

arguments. Since with just premise, deriving the conclusion is not possible, we have chosen this proof

technique.

Consider ∀x(L(x) → A(x)) ∧ ¬[∀x(L(x) ∧ ∃y(L(y) ∧ H(x, y)) → ∃y(A(y) ∧ H(x, y)))]

We need to show that the above expression is unsatisfiable (False).

¬[∀x(L(x) ∧ ∃y(L(y) ∧ H(x, y)) → ∃y(A(y) ∧ H(x, y)))]

∃x¬((L(x) ∧ ∃y(L(y) ∧ H(x, y))) → ∃y(A(y) ∧ H(x, y)))

∃x((L(x) ∧ ∃y(L(y) ∧ H(x, y))) ∧ ¬(∃y(A(y) ∧ H(x, y))))

E.I with respect to x,

(L(a) ∧ ∃y(L(y) ∧ H(a, y))) ∧ ¬(∃y(A(y) ∧ H(a, y))), for some a

(L(a) ∧ ∃y(L(y) ∧ H(a, y))) ∧ (∀y(¬A(y) ∧ ¬H(a, y)))

E.I with respect to y,

(L(a) ∧ (L(b) ∧ H(a, b))) ∧ (∀y(¬A(y) ∧ ¬H(a, y))), for some b

U.I with respect to y,

(L(a) ∧ (L(b) ∧ H(a, b)) ∧ (¬A(b) ∧ ¬H(a, b))), for any b

Since P ∧ Q is P, drop L(a) from the above expression.

(L(b) ∧ H(a, b)) ∧ (¬A(b) ∧ ¬H(a, b))), for any b

Apply distribution

(L(b) ∧ H(a, b) ∧ ¬A(b)) ∨ (L(b) ∧ H(a, b) ∧ ¬H(a, b))

Note: P ∧ ¬P is false. P ∧ f alse is P. Therefore, the above expression is simplified to

(L(b) ∧ H(a, b) ∧ ¬A(b))

U.I of ∀x(L(x) → A(x)) gives L(b) → A(b). The contrapositive of this is ¬A(b) → ¬L(b). Replace

¬A(b) in the above expression with ¬L(b). Thus, we get,

(L(b) ∧ H(a, b) ∧ ¬L(b)), this is again false.

This shows that our assumption that the conclusion is false is wrong. Therefore, the conclusion follows

from the premise.

the answer is b. if you look at the line it intercepts with x at the point -8. and if you look at where it intercepts with y it’s at -2.

Answer:

Your answer would be B

Step-by-step explanation:

So right away you can get rid of a and d since they are positive numbers, there is no positive numbers in the graph were the line is.

So we know that the y-intercept is -2 (as you can see the line pass through (0,-2))

And we know the y intercept is -8 (since the line pass through (-8,0))

so you are left with b and c, c is incorrect because the -2 goes through the y-intercept not the x.

The right choice is b, it states that the x-intercept -8 pass through the line, the y-intercept is -2

There are total 108 coins belonging to Asian countries.

What is equation?

An equation is a formula that expresses the equality of two expressions, by connecting them with the equals sign =.

Given that, Balu had a collection of coins 1/2 of the coins were from Asian countries, 1/3 of them from European countries and the remaining 36 from America.

Let the total number of coins be x,

Establishing the equation, we get,

x/3+x/2+36 = x

Multiplying the equation by 6, we get,

2x+3x+216 = 6x

6x-5x = 216

x = 216

Therefore, the total numbers of coins are 216,

Since, there are 1/2 of total coins are Asian coins,

Therefore, number of Asian coins = 216 / 2 = 108

Hence, There are total 108 coins belonging to Asian countries.

Find the surface area of each solid figure

Answers

Answer:

First find the SA of the triangular figure

4 x 3 = 12 cm^2 (the triangles on the sides)

2 x 3 = 6 cm^2 (the back square)

2 x 5 = 10 cm^2 (the slanted square)

*I'm not sure if this question includes the bottom of the triangle but here it is anyways

4 x 2 = 8 cm^2

Including the bottom the SA of the triangular figure is:

12 + 6 + 10 + 8 = 36 cm^2

Find the SA of the rectangular shape

4 x 2 = 8 cm^2 (the bottom square)

2 x 6 = 12 x 2 = 24 cm^2 (the sides)

4 x 6 = 24 x 2 = 48 cm^2 (the front and back)

Add them up

8 + 24 + 48 = 80 cm^2

If you wanted to find the SA of the whole figure it would be:

12 + 6 + 10 + 8 + 24 + 48 = 108 cm^2

Use implicit differentiation to find an equation of the tangent line to the curve at the given point. y2(y2 − 4) = x2(x2 − 5) (0, −2) (devil's curve)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

[tex]y^2 (y^2-4) = x^2(x^2 -5)[/tex]

at point (0, -2)

[tex]\implies y^4 -4y^2 = x^4 -5x^2[/tex]

Taking the differential from the equation above with respect to x;

[tex]4y^3 \dfrac{dy}{dx}-8y \dfrac{dy}{dx}= 4x^3 -10x[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex](4y^3 -8y)\dfrac{dy}{dx}= 4x^3 -10x[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{dy}{dx}= \dfrac{4x^3 -10x}{4y^3-8y}[/tex]

Hence, the slope of the tangent line m can be said to be:

[tex]\dfrac{dy}{dx}= \dfrac{4x^3 -10x}{4y^3-8y}[/tex]

At point (0,-2)

[tex]\dfrac{dy}{dx}= \dfrac{4(0)^3 -10(0)}{4(-2)^3-8-(2)}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{dy}{dx}= \dfrac{0 -0}{4(-8)+16}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{dy}{dx}= 0[/tex]

m = 0

So, we now have the equation of the tangent line with slope m = 0 moving through the point (x, y) = (0, -2) to be:

(y - y₁ = m(x - x₁))

y + 2 = 0(x - 0)

y + 2 = 0

y = -2

Answer: [tex]y=-\frac{1}{2} x+8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

An equation of a line can be in slope intercept form which is y=mx+b

m is the slope, b is the y intercept, x it the x coordinate, and y is the y coordinate. Since we know the slope is -1/2 and we know a x coordinate is -4 and a y coordinate is 10 we can sub them in and solve for the value of b.

[tex]y=mx+b\\10=(-\frac{1}{2})(-4)+b\\10=2+b\\10-2=2+b-2\\8=b[/tex]

The value of b is 8. We can now sub it in for our equation of the line. This time with x and y as variables.

Step-by-step explanation:

First degree equations

A first degree equation has the form

ax + b = 0

There are some special cases where the equation can have one, infinitely many or no solution

If , the equation has exactly one solution

If a=0 and b=0 the equation has infinitely many solutions, because it doesn't matter the value of x, it will always be true that 0=0

If a=0 and  the equation has no solution, because it will be equivalent to b=0 and we are saying it's not true. No matter what x is, it's a false statement.

We have been given some equations, we only need to put them in standard form

-5x + 12 = –12x – 12

Rearranging

7x + 24 = 0

It has exactly one solution because a is not zero

.......................

-5x + 12 = 5x + 12

-10x + 17 = 0

It has exactly one solution because a is not zero

.......................

It has no solution, no matter what the value of x is, it's impossible that 24=0

Answer:

after 10 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of months and y be the amount they still owe.

Sin Ian borrows $1000 from his parents, then the y-intercept b= 1000 since he owes $1000 when x = 0. He pays them back $60 each month The slope is then m = -60 . Substituting in b = 1000 and m = -60 into the slope-intercept form of a line then gives y= mx + b=-60x +1000.

Sin Ken borrows $600 from his parents, then the y-intercept b = 600 since he owes $600 When x= 0. He pays them back $20 per month so the amount he owes decreases $20 each month. The slope is then m = -20 . Substituting in

b= 600 and m = -20 into the slope-intercept form then gives y = mx +b = -20x + 600.

They will owe the same amount when they have the same y-coordinate. Therefore -60x+ 1000= y= -20x+600. Solve this equation for x:

-60x+ 1000 = -20x+ 600

1000 = 40x+ 600

400 = 40x

10=x

They will then owe the same amount after 10 months.

O y + 2 =1/3(x + 3)
O y-2=1/3(x-3)
O y + 3 = 1/3(x+ 2)
O y-3= 1/3(x-2)

Answers

Answer:

y - 2 = 1/3(x - 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Point slope form is y - y1 = m(x - x1), where m is the slope and (x1, y1) is a point on the line.

Plug in the slope:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - y1 = 1/3(x - x1)

Plug in the given point:

y - y1 = 1/3(x - x1)

y - 2 = 1/3(x - 3)

So, the correct answer is y - 2 = 1/3(x - 3)
