The first term of an arithmetic sequence is 2 and the fourth term is 11

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The sequence has common difference 3, and its general nth term can be written as:

[tex]a_n=3\,n-1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to define the sequence, we recall the formula for the nth term of an arithmetic sequence as:

[tex]a_n=a_1+(n-1)\,d[/tex]

where "d" is the common difference for the sequence (our unknown in this case), and the nth term is our fourth term (n = 4) which equals 11, and the first term is 2:

[tex]a_n=a_1+(n-1)\,d\\11=2+(4-1)\,d\\9=3\,d\\d=9/3\\d=3[/tex]

Therefore our sequence has common difference 3, and its general nth term can be written as:

[tex]a_n=2+(n-1)3\\a_n=3\,n-1[/tex]

How many gallons of a 90​% antifreeze solution must be mixed with 80 gallons of 25​% antifreeze to get a mixture that is 80​% ​antifreeze?

Answers

Answer:

x=440 gaL 90 % Antifreeze II

Step-by-step explanation:

In the problem, there are two types of antifreeze

antifreeeze I and

antifreeze II

antifreeze I 25 ----80 gal

Antifreeze II 90 ----- x gal

Total 80 ---------------- (80 + x ) gal

(25*80)+(90*x)=80(80+x)

2000+90x=6400+80x

90x-80x=6400-2000

10x=4400

divide both sides by 10 we have

x= 440

x=440 gaL 90 % Antifreeze II

According to a study done by a university​ student, the probability a randomly selected individual will not cover his or her mouth when sneezing is 0.267. Suppose you sit on a bench in a mall and observe​ people's habits as they sneeze. ​
A) What is the probability that among 12 randomly observed individuals exactly 8 do not cover their mouth when​ sneezing?
B) What is the probability that among 12 randomly observed individuals fewer than 5 do not cover their mouth when​ sneezing?​(
C) Would you be surprised​ if, after observing 12 individuals, fewer than half covered their mouth when​ sneezing? Why?

Answers

Answer:

A

 [tex]P(X =  8 ) =  0.0037[/tex]

B

    [tex]P(X < 5) =  0.805[/tex]

C

I will not be surprised because the probability that fewer than half covered their mouth when​ sneezing is less than 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The probability a randomly selected individual will not cover his or her mouth when sneezing is [tex]p = 0.267[/tex]

     

    The probability a randomly selected individual will cover his or her mouth when sneezing is

                   [tex]q = 1 -p[/tex]

                   [tex]q = 1 -0.267[/tex]

                    [tex]q = 0.733[/tex]

Generally the probability that among 12 randomly observed individuals exactly 8 do not cover their mouth when​ sneezing is mathematically represented as

        [tex]P(X =  8 ) =  \left 12 } \atop {}} \right. C_8 *  p^8 *  q^{12-8}[/tex]

        [tex]P(X =  8 ) = 495 *  (0.267)^8 *  (0.733)^{12-8}[/tex]

        [tex]P(X =  8 ) =  0.0037[/tex]

Generally the probability that among 12 randomly observed individuals fewer than 5 do not cover their mouth when​ sneezing is mathematically represented as

       [tex]P(X <  5 ) =  P[ P(X = 0) + \cdots + P(X =  4)][/tex]

=>        [tex]P(X <  5) = \left 12 } \atop {}} \right. C_0 *  (0.267)^0 * (0.733)^{(12- 0) }+\cdots +  \left 12 } \atop {}} \right. C_4 *  (0.267)^0 * (0.733)^{(12- 4) }[/tex]

=>     [tex]P(X < 5) =  0.805[/tex]

Give that half of  12 is  6 then

The probability that fewer than half covered their mouth when​ sneezing is mathematically represented as

      [tex]P(X > 6) =  1 -  P( X \le 6 )[/tex]

  => [tex]P(X > 6)  =  1 -  [P(X = 0 ) +\cdots+P(X = 6) ][/tex]

 => [tex]P(X > 6) = 1 -  [\left 12 } \atop {}} \right. C_0 *(0.267)^0 *  (0.733)^{12 - 0 } +\cdots + \left 12 } \atop {}} \right. C_6 * (0.267)^6 *  (0.733)^{12-6}][/tex]

=>    [tex]P(X > 6)   =  0.0206[/tex]

Two brothers, Mark and Walter, each inherit $20000. Mark invests his inheritance in a savings account with an annual return of 2.5%, while Walter invests his inheritance in a CD paying 6.1% annually. How much more money than Mark does Walter have after 1 year?

Answers

Answer:

$720

Step-by-step explanation:

$20000 - 100%

$x. - 2.5%

x=(20000*2.5)/100=500

20000+500=$20500 in one year (Mark)

20000 - 100

x. - 6.1

x= (20000*6.1)/100 = 1220

20000+1220= $21220 (Walter)

21220-20500= $720 more (Walter will have after 1 year)

Find the complex conjugate of 10+ 61.
a. -10 + 61
b. 10-61
C.-10-61
d. 6 - 107

Answers

Answer:

b. 10 - 61

Step-by-step explanation:

10 + 61 is 71

We need to change the addition sign to subtraction.

10 -  61= -51

We need to find an equation that is equal to -51.

a. -10 +61

That equals 51, which is not 71, which means it is not letter a.

b. 10 - 61

That equals -51, which is not 71, which means it is not letter b.

c. -10 - 61

That equals -71, which is not 71, which means it is not letter c.

d. 6- 107

That equals -101, which is not 71, which means it is not letter d.

D)

Answers

Answer:

Option (D)

Step-by-step explanation:

When we make a pie we will need apples.

That means number of pie baked will always depend on the number of apples available or number of apples used.

So the number of apples used will be independent variable.

Since number of pie will always depend on the number of apples used,

Number of pie baked will be a dependent variable.

Therefore, Option (D) will be the answer.

An NHL hockey player has 59 goals so far in a season. What are the possible numbers of additional goals the player can score to match or break the NHL record of 92 goals in a season?

Answers

Answer:

33 additional goals

Step-by-step explanation:

59+g is greater than or equal to 92 subtract 59 from both sides leaving the answer g is greater than or equal to 33

The hockey player would have to score:

33 goals to match the record 34 goals to break the record

In order the match the record, the hockey player needs to score a certain number of goals that will take them to the record of 92. That number is:

= 92 - 59

= 33 goals

If they however want to break the record, the need to score more than 92 goals. The least number of goals they can score to do so is:

= Number of goals to match record + 1

= 33 + 1

= 34 goals

In conclusion, the player would have to score 33 goals to match the NHL record but 34 to break it.

Suppose you work as a clerk at a local retail store earning $6 per hour. The amount of your weekly paycheck (before taxes are taken out) could be written F(x) = 6x.

16. What is the independent variable in this function and what does it represent?

Answers

Answer:

x is the independent variable and it represents the number of hours worked per week by the clerk.

Step-by-step explanation:

An independent variable refers to a variable in model that is varied or changed in order to examine its effect on another variable. The other variable is called a dependent variable.

A dependent variable is a variable in a model that changes as a result of a change in the independent variable.

From the question, x is the independent variable and its represent the number of hours worked by the clerk.

F(x) represents the amount of your weekly paycheck and it is the dependent variable that changes as the number of hours worked, x, changes.

For example, since we are given:

F(x) = 6x ............................... (1)

Where;

F(x) = = depemdent variable = Amount of weekly paycheck (before taxes are taken out)

6 = coefficient of x = Earning per hour

x = Independent variable = Number of hours worked

Assuming x = 1, we can substitute this into equation (1) and have:

F(x) = 6 * 1 = $6

But when x = 2, we have:

F(x) = 6 * 2 = $12

Therefore, the dependent variable F(x) changes from $6 weekly to $12 weekly as the independent variable x changes form 1 hour to 2 hours weekly.

Answer:

#7.  JK = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

So all these problems are similar in the fact that you are given three pieces of information and you need to determine x.  Let's look at #7.

We are to find the length JK but we are given it in terms of x.  To find the length, we need to find x.  Using the information we have about KL and JL, we can find this.  Note, the value of JL is 5, and the value of KL is x + 8.

JK + KL = JL

( 2x + 9 ) + ( x + 8 ) = 5

3x + 17 = 5

3x = -12

x = -4

Now that we have the value of x,  we can find the value of JK:

JK = 2x + 9

JK = 2(-4) + 9

JK = -8 + 9

JK = 1

Hence, the length of JK is 1.

Using this same basic idea, you can solve all of these problems.

Cheers.
