Given that for an arithmetic sequence, the first term is q and the second term is qz.

(a) Find the common difference d the general term Tn and the sum of the first n terms. Answer must

be in terms of q and z.
(b) Hence, find the sum of the first 10 terms in terms of q and z. ​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]d = q(z-1)[/tex]

[tex]S_n = \frac{nq}{2}(2 + (n-1)(z-1))[/tex]

[tex]S_{10} = 5q(9z -7)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]T_1 = q[/tex]

[tex]T_2 = qz[/tex]

Solving (a1): The common difference (d)

d is calculated as

[tex]d = T_2 - T_1[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]d = qz - q[/tex]

Factorize:

[tex]d = q(z-1)[/tex]

Solving (a2): Sum of n terms

This is calculated using:

[tex]S_n = \frac{n}{2}(2*T_1 + (n-1)d)[/tex]

Substitute values for T1 and d

[tex]S_n = \frac{n}{2}(2*q + (n-1)q(z-1))[/tex]

[tex]S_n = \frac{n}{2}(2q + q(n-1)(z-1))[/tex]

Factorize:

[tex]S_n = \frac{n}{2}(q(2 + (n-1)(z-1)))[/tex]

[tex]S_n = \frac{nq}{2}(2 + (n-1)(z-1))[/tex]

Solving (b): Sum of first 10.

In this case, n = 10

So:

[tex]S_n = \frac{nq}{2}(2 + (n-1)(z-1))[/tex]

becomes

[tex]S_{10} = \frac{10 * q}{2}(2 + (10-1)(z-1))[/tex]

[tex]S_{10} = 5 * q(2 + 9(z-1))[/tex]

[tex]S_{10} = 5q(2 + 9(z-1))[/tex]

[tex]S_{10} = 5q(2 + 9z-9)[/tex]

[tex]S_{10} = 5q(2 -9+ 9z)[/tex]

[tex]S_{10} = 5q(-7+ 9z)[/tex]

[tex]S_{10} = 5q(9z -7)[/tex]

Answer 2

Given that the first term and the second term of an arithmetic sequence is q and qz respectively, therefore:

a. Common difference (d) = [tex]\mathbf{d = q(z - 1)}[/tex]

Sum of the first n terms is: [tex]\mathbf{S_n = \frac{qn}{2}[2 + (n - 1)(z - 1)]}[/tex]

b. [tex]\mathbf{S_{10} = 5q(9z - 7)}[/tex]

Recall:

The common difference (d) of an arithmetic sequence = difference between the next term and the previous termSum of n terms, [tex]S_n[/tex] of arithmetic sequence = [tex]\frac{n}{2}[2a + (n - 1)d][/tex]

Given:

First term, [tex]T_1 = q[/tex] (this is also "a")Second term, [tex]\\\\T_2 = qz[/tex]

a. Common difference (d) = [tex]T_2 - T_1[/tex]

Substitute

[tex]d = qz - q\\\\\mathbf{d = q(z - 1)}[/tex]

Sum of n terms:

[tex]T_n = \frac{n}{2}[2a + (n - 1)d][/tex]

Substitute by plugging in the value of d and a

[tex]S_n = \frac{n}{2}[2(q) + (n - 1)q(z - 1)]\\\\S_n = \frac{n}{2}[2q + q(n - 1)(z - 1)]\\\\S_n = \frac{qn}{2}[2 + 1(n - 1)(z - 1)]\\\\\mathbf{S_n = \frac{qn}{2}[2 + (n - 1)(z - 1)]}[/tex]

b. Sum of the first 10 terms:

Substitute n = 10 into  [tex]S_n = \frac{qn}{2}[2 + (n - 1)(z - 1)][/tex]

[tex]S_{10} = \frac{q(10)}{2}[2 + (10 - 1)(z - 1)][/tex]

Simplify

[tex]S_{10} = 5q[2 + (9)(z - 1)]\\\\S_{10} = 5q(2 + 9z - 9)\\\\[/tex]

Add like terms

[tex]\mathbf{S_{10} = 5q(9z - 7)}[/tex]

In summary, given that the first term and the second term of an arithmetic sequence is q and qz respectively, therefore:

a. Common difference (d) = [tex]\mathbf{d = q(z - 1)}[/tex]

Sum of the first n terms is: [tex]\mathbf{S_n = \frac{qn}{2}[2 + (n - 1)(z - 1)]}[/tex]

b. [tex]\mathbf{S_{10} = 5q(9z - 7)}[/tex]

a nursery sells kentucky bluegrass seed for $5.75 per pound and tall fescue seed for $4.50 per pound. the nursery sells a mixture of the two kinds of seed for $5.25 per pound. let k represent the amount of kentucky blue grass seed the nusery uses in in 5 pounds of the mixture

Answers

Answer:

[tex]k=3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Per pound cost of kentucky bluegrass seed = $5.75

Per pound cost of tall fescue seed = $4.50

Per pound cost of mixture of seeds = $5.25

[tex]k[/tex] is the amount of kentucky blue grass.

Total amount of the mixture = 5 pounds

Therefore, amount of tall fescue seed = (5 - [tex]k[/tex]) pounds

To find:

The value of [tex]k[/tex].

Cost of [tex]k[/tex] pounds of kentucky bluegrass seed = [tex]\$5.75k[/tex]

Cost of (5 - [tex]k[/tex]) pounds of tall fescue seed = [tex]\$(5-k)4.50[/tex]

As per question statement:

[tex]5.75k+(5-k)4.50=5.25\times 5\\\Rightarrow 575k+5\times 450 -450k=525\times5\\\Rightarrow 125k=75\times5\\\Rightarrow k =3\ pounds[/tex]

Amount of kentucky blue grass seed used = 3 pounds

Amount of tall fescue seed used = 5-3 = 2 pounds

For the function below, find ordered pairs for: x = -2 and x = 5 y = 9 - 4x

Answers

Answer:

(- 2, 17 ) and (5, - 11 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y = 9 - 4x

Substitute the given values of x into the equation and evaluate for y

x = - 2, then

y = 9 - 4(- 2) = 9 + 8 = 17 ⇒ (- 2, 17 ) ← ordered pair

x = 5, then

y = 9 - 4(5) = 9 - 20 = - 11 ⇒ (5, - 11 ) ← ordered pair

The function g(x) has a slope of —5/6. The value of g (x) is 5 when x is 6. Explain how the graph
of g(x) can be used to find the x-intercept. (2 points)
Item

Answers

You have slope and a point so it should be easy.
Set up equation [y-y1= m(x-x1)]
y-5 = -5/6(x-6)
And simplify.
Y=-5/6x +10

Then to find x intercept, plug in a 0 for y
0=-5/6x+10
-10=-5/6x. Subtract 10 from both sides.
-10/ -5/6 = x. Divide by -5/6 on both sides.

X=12

So the x intercept is 12 or (12,0)

Calculate the mean, the variance, and the standard deviation of the following discrete probability distribution. (Negative values should be indicated by a minus sign. Round intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal places. Round your final answers to 2 decimal places.) x −41 −27 −8 −3 P(X = x) 0.29 0.35 0.21 0.15

Answers

Answer:

a) Mean is -23.47

b) Variance is 206.59

c) standard deviation is 14.37

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

 x              −41        −27        −8         −3

P(X = x)      0.29      0.35      0.21      0.15

X.P            -11.89     -9.45    -1.68     -0.45

a) mean

Mean = ∑X.P = -11.89 +  -9.45 + -1.68 + -0.45

Mean = -23.47

b)  the variance

E(x²) = ∑x²P(X=x)

= (−41²×0.29) + (−27²×0.35) + (−8²×0.21) + (−3²×0.15)

= 487.49 + 255.15 + 13.44 + 1.35

= 757.43

So

Var(X) = E(x²) - [∑X.P]²

Var(X) = 757.43 - [-23.47]²

= 757.43 - 550.8409

= 206.5891 ≈ 206.59

Therefore Variance is 206.59

c) standard deviation

standard deviation SD(X) = √Var(X)

SD(X) = √206.5891

= 14.3732 ≈ 14.37

Therefore standard deviation is 14.37

Find the measures of Angles A,B, and C

Answers

Answer:

A = 102   B = 78   C = 56

Step-by-step explanation:

All three sides of a triangle added up equals 180.

So 41 + 37 + A = 180

A = 102

A straight line = 180 degrees.

One measurement is 102, so the other is 78.

You now know B is 78, and that 3 angles equal 180.

46 + 78 + c = 180

c= 56

What is linear equation?

Equations whose variables have a power of one are called linear equations. One example with one variable is where ax+b = 0, where a and b are real values and x is the variable.

We have a linear equation,
