Answer:

\sf t_{20}= 0

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Arithmetic sequence:</h3>

      \sf \boxed{\bf n^{th} \ term = a + (n-1)d}\\\\\text{Here, a is the first term ; d is the common difference }

6th term is 14 ⇒ \sf t_6 = 14

                a + (6 - 1)d = 14

                    a  +  5d = 14  --------------(I)

14th term is 6 ⇒\sf t_{14} = 6

             a + (14-1)d = 6

                  a + 13d = 6 ----------------(II)

Subtract equation (II) from equation(I)

        (I)          a + 5d = 14

        (II)         a + 13d = 6

                    <u>-    -          -</u>

                            -8d = 8

                               d  = 8 ÷(-8)      

                              \sf \boxed{\bf d= (-1)}

Plugin d = -1 in equation (I)

a + 5(-1) = 14

      a -5  = 14

             a = 14 + 5

             \sf \boxed{\bf a = 19}  

20th term:

 \sf t_{20}= 19 + 19*(-1)

       = 19 - 19

   \sf \boxed{\bf t_{20} = 0}

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of terms of an Arithmetic progressions has the formular.

Tn = a + ( n - 1 ) d

From the question,

6th term = 14

14th term = 6

Therefore,

a + 5d = 14 -----------(1)

a + 13d = 6 ----------(2)

subtracting

-8d = 8

dividing bothsides by -8

\frac{ - 8d}{ - 8}  =  \frac{8}{ - 8}  \\ d =  - 1

Therefore,

common difference= -1

substituting the value of d into equation (1)

a + 5 ( -1) = 14

a - 5 = 14

a = 14 + 5 = 19

First term = 19

For the 20th term

T 20 = a + 19d

19 + 19 ( -1 )

19-19 = 0

Therefore,

20th term = 0

Jack has 120 songs on his music player. Some are rock, some are jazz, and the rest of classical pieces. If his music player is o
muminat
2/5 and 1/3 have a common denominator of 15. 6/15, 5/15, and 4/15 add up to 15/15. So the chances of rock are 4/15. 120 divided by 15 is 8. Six times eight equals fourty eight, five times eight equals forty, and four times eight equals thirty two. So there are 48 classical songs, 40 jazz songs, and 32 rock songs.

Find the following: F(x, y, z) = e^(xy) sin z j + y tan^−1(x/z)k Exercise Find the curl and the divergence of the vector field.
natulia [17]

\vec F(x,y,z)=e^{xy}\sin z\,\vec\jmath+y\tan^{-1}\dfrac xz\,\vec k

Divergence is easier to compute:

\mathrm{div}\vec F=\dfrac{\partial(e^{xy}\sin z)}{\partial y}+\dfrac{\partial\left(y\tan^{-1}\frac xz\right)}{\partial z}

\mathrm{div}\vec F=xe^{xy}\sin z-\dfrac{xy}{x^2+z^2}

Curl is a bit more tedious. Denote by D_t the differential operator, namely the derivative with respect to the variable t. Then

\mathrm{curl}\vec F=\begin{vmatrix}\vec\imath&\vec\jmath&\vec k\\D_x&D_y&D_z\\0&e^{xy}\sin z&y\tan^{-1}\frac xz\end{vmatrix}

\mathrm{curl}\vec F=\left(D_y\left[y\tan^{-1}\dfrac xz\right]-D_z\left[e^{xy}\sin z\right]\right)\,\vec\imath-D_x\left[y\tan^{-1}\dfrac xz\right]\,\vec\jmath+D_x\left[e^{xy}\sin z}\right]\,\vec k

\mathrm{curl}\vec F=\left(\tan^{-1}\dfrac xz-e^{xy}\cos z\right)\,\vec\imath-\dfrac{yz}{x^2+z^2}\,\vec\jmath+ye^{xy}\sin z\,\vec k

A restaurant offers a special pizza with any 4 toppings. If the restaurant has 15 topping from which to choose, how many differe
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer: 1,365 possible special pizzas

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first topping, there are 15 possibilities, for the second topping, there are 14 possibilities, for the third topping, there are 13 possibilities, and for the fourth topping, there are 12 possibilities. This is how you find the number of possible ways.

15 * 14 * 13 * 12 = 32,760

Now, you need to divide that by the number of toppings you are allowed to add each time you add a topping.

4 * 3 * 2 * 1 = 24

32,760 / 24 = 1,365

There are 1,365 possible special pizzas
