Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]\textsf{a)} \quad T_n=-n^2+n+20[/tex]

[tex]\textsf{b)} \quad T_{12}=-112[/tex]

[tex]\textsf{c)} \quad \sf 8th\;term[/tex]

a)  Second difference is 2.

b)  First term is 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given number pattern is:

20, 18, 14, 8, ...

To determine the type of sequence, begin by calculating the first differences between consecutive terms:

[tex]20 \underset{-2}{\longrightarrow} 18 \underset{-4}{\longrightarrow} 14 \underset{-6}{\longrightarrow}8[/tex]

As the first differences are not the same, we need to calculate the second differences (the differences between the first differences):

[tex]-2 \underset{-2}{\longrightarrow} -4 \underset{-2}{\longrightarrow} -6[/tex]

As the second differences are the same, the sequence is quadratic and will contain an n² term.

The coefficient of the n² term is half of the second difference.

As the second difference is -2, the coefficient of the n² term is -1.

Now we need to compare -n² with the given sequence (where n is the position of the term in the sequence).

[tex]\begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|c|}\cline{1-5}n&1&2&3&4\\\cline{1-5}-n^2&-1&-4&-9&-16\\\cline{1-5}\sf operation&+21&+22&+23&+24\\\cline{1-5}\sf sequence&20&18&14&8\\\cline{1-5}\end{array}[/tex]

We can see that the algebraic operation that takes -n² to the terms of the sequence is to add (n + 20).

[tex]\begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|c|}\cline{1-5}n&1&2&3&4\\\cline{1-5}-n^2&-1&-4&-9&-16\\\cline{1-5}+n&0&-2&-6&-12\\\cline{1-5}+20&20&18&14&8\\\cline{1-5}\sf sequence&20&18&14&8\\\cline{1-5}\end{array}[/tex]

Therefore, the expression to find the the nth term of the given quadratic sequence is:

[tex]\boxed{T_n=-n^2+n+20}[/tex]

To find the value of T₁₂, substitute n = 12 into the nth term equation:

[tex]\begin{aligned}T_{12}&=-(12)^2+(12)+20\\&=-144+12+20\\&=-132+20\\&=-112\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, the 12th term of the number pattern is -112.

To find the position of the term that has a value of -36, substitute Tₙ = -36 into the nth term equation and solve for n:

[tex]\begin{aligned}T_n&=-36\\-n^2+n+20&=-36\\-n^2+n+56&=0\\n^2-n-56&=0\\n^2-8n+7n-56&=0\\n(n-8)+7(n-8)&=0\\(n+7)(n-8)&=0\\\\\implies n&=-7\\\implies n&=8\end{aligned}[/tex]

As the position of the term cannot be negative, the term that has a value of -36 is the 8th term.

[tex]\hrulefill[/tex]

Given terms of a quadratic number pattern:

T₂ = 1T₃ = -6T₅ = -14

We know the first differences are negative, since the difference between the second and third terms is -7. Label the unknown differences as -a, -b and -c:

[tex]T_1 \underset{-a}{\longrightarrow} 1 \underset{-7}{\longrightarrow} -6 \underset{-b}{\longrightarrow}T_4 \underset{-c}{\longrightarrow} -14[/tex]

From this we can create three equations:

[tex]T_1-a=1[/tex]

[tex]-6-b=T_4[/tex]

[tex]T_4-c=-14[/tex]

The second differences are the same in a quadratic sequence. Let the second difference be x. (As we don't know the sign of the second difference, keep it as positive for now).

[tex]-a \underset{+x}{\longrightarrow} -7\underset{+x}{\longrightarrow} -b \underset{+x}{\longrightarrow}-c[/tex]

From this we can create three equations:

[tex]-a+x=-7[/tex]

[tex]-7+x=-b[/tex]

[tex]-b+x=-c[/tex]

Substitute the equation for -b into the equation for -c to create an equation for -c in terms of x:

[tex]-c=(-7+x)+x[/tex]

[tex]-c=2x-7[/tex]

Substitute the equations for -b and -c (in terms of x) into the second two equations created from the first differences to create two equations for T₄ in terms of x:

[tex]\begin{aligned}-6-b&=T_4\\-6-7+x&=T_4\\T_4&=x-13\end{aligned}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{aligned}T_4-c&=-14\\T_4+2x-7&=-14\\T_4&=-2x-7\\\end{aligned}[/tex]

Solve for x by equating the two equations for T₄:

[tex]\begin{aligned}T_4&=T_4\\x-13&=-2x-7\\3x&=6\\x&=2\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, the second difference is 2.

Substitute the found value of x into the equations for -a, -b and -c to find the first differences:

[tex]-a+2=-7 \implies -a=-9[/tex]

[tex]-7+2=-b \implies -b=-5[/tex]

[tex]-5+2=-c \implies -c=-3[/tex]

Therefore, the first differences are:

[tex]T_1 \underset{-9}{\longrightarrow} 1 \underset{-7}{\longrightarrow} -6 \underset{-5}{\longrightarrow}T_4 \underset{-3}{\longrightarrow} -14[/tex]

Finally, calculate the first term:

[tex]\begin{aligned}T_1-9&=1\\T_1&=1+9\\T_1&=10\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, the first term in the number pattern is 10.

[tex]10 \underset{-9}{\longrightarrow} 1 \underset{-7}{\longrightarrow} -6 \underset{-5}{\longrightarrow}-11 \underset{-3}{\longrightarrow} -14[/tex]

Note: The equation for the nth term is:

[tex]\boxed{T_n=n^2-12n+21}[/tex]

If you are traveling 14 miles per hour, how many inches would you travel in 3 seconds? (1 mile = 5280 feet; 1 foot = 12 inches) (Convert 3 seconds to inches)

Answers

To convert the speed from miles per hour to inches per second, we need to perform the following conversions:

1 mile = 5280 feet
1 foot = 12 inches

First, let's convert the speed from miles per hour to inches per hour:
14 miles/hour * 5280 feet/mile * 12 inches/foot = 14 * 5280 * 12 inches/hour

Next, we need to convert hours to seconds since we want the distance traveled in 3 seconds:
(14 * 5280 * 12 inches/hour) * (1 hour/3600 seconds) = 14 * 5280 * 12 * 1/3600 inches/second

Now, we can calculate the distance traveled in 3 seconds:
Distance = Speed * Time = (14 * 5280 * 12 * 1/3600 inches/second) * 3 seconds

Simplifying the expression:
Distance = (14 * 5280 * 12 * 3) / (3600) inches

Calculating the value:
Distance = 7392 inches

Therefore, if you are traveling at a speed of 14 miles per hour, you would travel 7392 inches in 3 seconds.

What is the triangle midpoint theorem?

In Mathematics and Geometry, the triangle midpoint theorem states that the line segment which connects the midpoints of two (2) sides of a triangle must be parallel to the third side, and it's congruent to one-half of the third side.

By applying the triangle midpoint theorem to the triangle, we have the following:

AE = 1/2(FE)

BD ≅ FE (midpoints of AC and CE)

BD = FE = 35 units.

#SPJ1

Missing information:

The question is incomplete and the complete question is shown in the attached picture.

The given picture with Midpoints B, D, and F, AC is 50 units, CE is 60 units, and BD is 35 units. The length of segment FE is determined to be 35 units.

In the given picture, let's label the points as A, B, C, D, E, and F. It is mentioned that points B, D, and F are midpoints.

Given information:

AC = 50

CE = 60

BD = 35

Since B, D, and F are midpoints, we know that BD is equal to half of AC and half of CE. Therefore, BD = AC/2 and BD = CE/2.

We are given that BD = 35, so we can set up the equations:

35 = AC/2    ...(Equation 1)

35 = CE/2    ...(Equation 2)

Let's solve Equation 1 for AC:

AC = 35 * 2

AC = 70

Similarly, solving Equation 2 for CE:

CE = 35 * 2

CE = 70

Now, let's consider triangle AFE. Since B and D are midpoints, we know that BD is parallel to FE, and FD is parallel to AE. Therefore, triangle AFE is similar to triangle ADC.

In similar triangles, corresponding sides are proportional. Hence, we can write the following ratios:

FE/AC = FD/AD

Substituting the known values, we get:

FE/70 = 35/AC

Cross-multiplying, we have:

FE * AC = 70 * 35

Since we know AC is 70, we can solve for FE:

FE = (70 * 35) / 70

FE = 35

Therefore, the length of FE is 35 units.

the given information, in the given picture with midpoints B, D, and F, AC is 50 units, CE is 60 units, and BD is 35 units. The length of segment FE is determined to be 35 units.

Answers

The equation of the axis of symmetry is x = -7.

Given is an equation of a parabola, y = -3x² - 42x - 159, we need to find the equation of the axis of the symmetry.

To find the equation of the axis of symmetry of a parabola in the form of y = ax² + bx + c, you can use the formula x = -b / (2a).

In this case, the given equation is y = -3x² - 42x - 159.

Comparing it to the general form, we have a = -3 and b = -42.

Applying the formula, we can calculate the x-coordinate of the vertex (the axis of symmetry):

x = -b / (2a)

x = -(-42) / (2(-3))

x = 42 / (-6)

x = -7

Therefore, the x-coordinate of the vertex is -7.

To find the equation of the axis of symmetry, we use the value of x in the form x = h, where (h, k) is the vertex.

Given statement solution is :- The Inverse line that represents [tex]f^(-1[/tex]) is [tex]f^(-1)[/tex] (x) = 3x + 4.

To find the inverse function of f(x) = (x - 4)/3, we need to swap the roles of x and y and solve for y. Let's start by writing the equation with y instead of f(x):

y = (x - 4)/3

Now, let's interchange x and y:

x = (y - 4)/3

To solve for y, we can isolate it by multiplying both sides of the equation by 3:

3x = y - 4

Next, let's add 4 to both sides:

3x + 4 = y

Finally, we can write the inverse function as:

amara finds the sum of two number cubes rolled at the same time. The chart below shows all possible sums from the 36 possible combinations when rolling two number cubes. How many times should Tamara expect the sum of the two cubes be equal to if she rolls the two number cubes 180 ​times?

Answers

Tamara should expect the sum of the two cubes to be equal to 7 around 30 times when rolling the two number cubes 180 times.

To determine how many times Tamara should expect the sum of the two number cubes to be equal to a certain value, we need to analyze the chart and calculate the probabilities.

Let's examine the chart and count the number of times each sum occurs:

Sum: 2, Occurrences: 1

Sum: 3, Occurrences: 2

Sum: 4, Occurrences: 3

Sum: 5, Occurrences: 4

Sum: 6, Occurrences: 5

Sum: 7, Occurrences: 6

Sum: 8, Occurrences: 5

Sum: 9, Occurrences: 4

Sum: 10, Occurrences: 3

Sum: 11, Occurrences: 2

Sum: 12, Occurrences: 1

Now, let's calculate the probabilities of each sum occurring.

Since there are 36 possible combinations when rolling two number cubes, the probability of each sum is the number of occurrences divided by 36:

Probability of sum 2 = 1/36

Probability of sum 3 = 2/36

Probability of sum 4 = 3/36

Probability of sum 5 = 4/36

Probability of sum 6 = 5/36

Probability of sum 7 = 6/36

Probability of sum 8 = 5/36

Probability of sum 9 = 4/36

Probability of sum 10 = 3/36

Probability of sum 11 = 2/36

Probability of sum 12 = 1/36

To find out how many times Tamara should expect a certain sum when rolling the two number cubes 180 times, we can multiply the probability of that sum by 180.

For example, to find the expected number of times the sum is 7:

Expected occurrences of sum 7 = (6/36) [tex]\times[/tex] 180 = 30

Similarly, we can calculate the expected occurrences for all other sums.

Find the degrees of freedom, alpha or significance level, and the t-critical value using the t-table n = 27 ;CL=98\%

Answers

The degrees of freedom for a sample size of 27 is 26, the alpha or significance level for a 98% confidence level is 0.02, and the t-critical value can be found using the t-table corresponding to a 98% confidence level and 26 degrees of freedom.

To find the degrees of freedom, alpha (significance level), and the t-critical value using the t-table, we need to consider the given information:

n = 27: This represents the sample size, which is 27 in this case.

CL = 98%: CL stands for the confidence level.

It indicates the level of confidence we want to have in our interval estimate.

In this case, the confidence level is 98%.

Degrees of Freedom (df): For a t-distribution, the degrees of freedom depend on the sample size.

Since we have a sample size of 27, the degrees of freedom would be n - 1.

Therefore, the degrees of freedom would be 27 - 1 = 26.

Alpha (α): Alpha, or the significance level, represents the probability of making a Type I error, which is rejecting a true null hypothesis.

The alpha level is determined by subtracting the confidence level from 1. In this case, the alpha level would be 1 - 0.98 = 0.02.

T-Critical Value: To find the t-critical value corresponding to a specific confidence level and degrees of freedom, we can consult the t-table. Since we have a confidence level of 98% and degrees of freedom of 26, we need to find the value that corresponds to the area of 0.01 (half of 1 - 0.98) in the t-distribution table.

The t-critical value would be the value from the table that matches these criteria.

Subtract 30 from both sides of the equation to isolate the term with n:

10n = 1,000,000 - 30

10n = 999,970

Divide both sides of the equation by 10 to solve for n:

Kayana used 4 packages of pencils, so she used 4p pencils in total for the first semester.

After that, she used 10 more pencils, so the total number of pencils she used is:

4p + 10

Therefore, the expression to represent the total number of pencils Kayana used is 4p + 10.

What is the meaning of "free variables"?

Answers

Free variables are variables used to represent parameters

What are free variables?

Free variables are placeholders or symbols in mathematics and logic that are not constrained by any quantifiers or other specified conditions within an expression, formula, or equation.

When the expression is evaluated, they stand for values that can change or be given different values. In equations or functions, free variables are frequently employed to represent unknowns or parameters.

Free variables enable flexibility and generality in mathematical reasoning since they can be given various values to investigate various situations or solutions. In contrast, bound variables have a specific scope within a certain context or statement and are constrained by quantifiers.

There is a substance called sodium-24 that decays at a rate of 4.5% per hour, compounded continuously.
You start with a sample of 500 grams of this substance.
a) Write a function to model the amount remaining after t hours.

Answers

The function to model the amount remaining after t hours is:

[tex]A(t) = 500 \times e^{-0.045t}[/tex]

We have,

To model the amount remaining after t hours for the substance sodium-24, which decays at a rate of 4.5% per hour compounded continuously, we can use the formula for continuous exponential decay:

[tex]A(t) = A(0) \times e^{-rt}[/tex]

Where:

A(t) is the amount remaining after t hours,

A(0) is the initial amount,

e is the base of the natural logarithm (approximately 2.71828),

r is the decay rate (expressed as a decimal).

In this case,

The initial amount A(0) is 500 grams, and the decay rate r is 4.5% per hour, which can be expressed as 0.045 (decimal form).

Thus,

The distribution of scores on a history test is close to normal. The scores are adjusted so that the mean score is about =75
and the standard deviation is =5
. What percent of the scores fall between 65 and 75?

13.5%

27.0%

47.5%

Answers

The percentage of scores that fall between 65 and 75 is approximately [tex]2 \times 34 = 68%.[/tex]%

To determine the percentage of scores that fall between 65 and 75, we can use the properties of the normal distribution.

Mean score = 75

Standard deviation = 5

We know that the normal distribution is symmetric around the mean, and approximately 68% of the data falls within one standard deviation from the mean.

This means that about 34% of the scores fall between the mean and one standard deviation above the mean.

To calculate the percentage of scores between 65 and 75, we need to determine how many standard deviations away from the mean 65 and 75 are.

For 65:

(65 - 75) / 5 = -2

For 75:

(75 - 75) / 5 = 0

From the calculations, we can see that 65 is 2 standard deviations below the mean, and 75 is at the mean.

Since the distribution is symmetric, we can consider the percentage of scores between the mean and one standard deviation above the mean (34%) and double it to account for the scores between the mean and one standard deviation below the mean.

Therefore, the percentage of scores that fall between 65 and 75 is approximately 2 [tex]\times[/tex] 34% = 68%.

However, none of the given answer options match the calculated result. Therefore, none of the provided answer options accurately represent the percentage of scores between 65 and 75 based on the given information.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the measure of angle A

A population data set produced the following information N-250 Σx=9880, Σy=1456. Σxy-85080 Σx²=485870, Σy² = 135675 Find the value of oe and p²

Answers

The value of p² is approximately 0.999999528.

To find the value of oe (the standard error of estimate) and p² (the coefficient of determination), we can use the given population data set information.

The formula for the standard error of estimate (oe) is:

oe = √((Σy² - (Σy)² / N) / (N - 2))

Substituting the given values, we have:

oe = √((135675 - (1456)² / 250) / (250 - 2))

oe = √((135675 - 2124736 / 250) / 248)

oe = √(541.96)

oe ≈ 23.27

Therefore, the value of oe is approximately 23.27.

The coefficient of determination (p²) can be calculated using the formula:

p² = 1 - (Σxy - (Σx × Σy) / N) / ((Σx² - (Σx)² / N) × (Σy² - (Σy)² / N))

Substituting the given values:

p² = 1 - (85080 - (9880 × 1456) / 250) / ((485870 - (9880)² / 250) × (135675 - (1456)² / 250))

p² = 1 - (85080 - 14358080 / 250) / ((485870 - 968144 / 250) × (135675 - 2124736 / 250))

p² = 1 - (85080 - 57432.32) / (478352.56 × 123346.74)

p² = 1 - (27647.68) / (59022875580.02)

p² ≈ 0.999999528

Therefore, the value of p² is approximately 0.999999528.

Arlene has to unpack 4 1/2 boxes of canned pineapple juice. He unpacked 1/4 of them.
How many boxes are still unpacked?

Answers

Arlene has to unpack 4 1/2 boxes of canned pineapple juice. He has unpacked 1/4 of them.

To find out how many boxes are still unpacked, we need to subtract the fraction Arlene has already unpacked from the total number of boxes.

Total boxes: 4 1/2
Fraction unpacked: 1/4

To subtract fractions, we need a common denominator. In this case, the common denominator is 4.

4 1/2 = 9/2 (as an improper fraction)

Now we can subtract:

9/2 - 1/4 = 18/4 - 1/4 = 17/4

So, Arlene still has 17/4 (or 4 1/4) boxes of canned pineapple juice left to unpack.

I hope this helps! ;)
