Answer:
1st term: 3(1) - 8 = 3-8= -5
10th term: 3(10) - 8= 30-8= 22
100th term: 3(100)-8= 300-8= 292

Explanation:
Substitute the term number (e.g. 10) in the place of n

Hope this helped! :)

Answer:

-5, 22, 292

Step-by-step explanation:

Subbsittutoin mehtod

(i) n = 1 , 3n - 8

= 3 x 1 - 8

= -5

(ii) n = 10 , 3n - 8

= 3 x 10 - 8

=22

(iii) n = 100 , 3n - 8

= 3 x 100 - 8

= 300 - 8

= 292

Scores on an English test are normally distributed with a mean of 31.5 and a standard deviation of 7.3. Find the score that sepa

vladimir1956 [14]

If $X$ is a random variable representing test scores, then the 41st percentile is the score $x$ such that $P(X\le x)=0.41$ . Transform $X$ to the random variable $Z$ that follows the standard normal distribution via $X=31.5+7.3Z$ :

$P(X\le x)=P\left(\dfrac{X-31.5}{7.3}\le\dfrac{x-31.5}{7.3}\right)=P\left(Z\le\dfrac{x-31.5}{7.3}\right)=0.41$

The $z$ -score for the 41st percentile is about -0.2275, so

$\dfrac{x-31.5}{7.3}\approx-0.2275\implies\boxed{x\approx29.8}$

Aiko stands 5 m from a tree. At that distance, the angle of elevation from the ground to the top of the tree is 80°.

denis23 [38]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf About \ 28.36 \ meters }}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the tree is perpendicular to the ground, we can use the right triangle trigonometric ratios to find the tree's height.

sin(θ)= opposite/hypotenuse
cos(θ)= adjacent/hypotenuse
tan(θ)= opposite/adjacent

Now, let's draw a diagram. We know Aiko is 5 meters from the base of the tree. From there, the angle to the top of the tree is 80 degrees. We are looking for x, the tree's height. The diagram attached is not to scale.

We base the sides off of the angle. x is opposite of 80 degrees and 5 is adjacent. Therefore we must use tangent.

$tan(\Theta)=\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$
