Answer:

The sum of the arithmetic sequence is S_{8}=-324.

Step-by-step explanation:

A sequence is a set of numbers that are in order.

In an arithmetic sequence the difference between one term and the next is a constant.  In other words, we just add the same value each time infinitely.

If the first term of an arithmetic sequence is a_1 and the common difference is d, then the nth term of the sequence is given by:

                                                  a_{n}=a_{1}+(n-1)d

For the sequence

                                                -2,-13,-24,-35,...

The pattern is continued by adding -11 to the last number each time.

An arithmetic series is the sum of an arithmetic sequence.  We find the sum by adding the first, a_1 and last term, a_n, divide by 2 in order to get the mean of the two values and then multiply by the number of values, <em>n</em>

<em>                                                     </em>S_{n}=\frac{n}{2}(a_{1}+a_{n})<em />

The sum of the arithmetic sequence is

a_{8}=-2+(8-1)(-11)=-2-77=-79

S_{8}=\frac{8}{2}(-2-79})=4\left(-2-79\right)=4\left(-81\right)=-324

Answer:

  • D. A translation 1 unit to the right followed by a 270-degree counterclockwise rotation about the origin

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>See the picture for better visual</em>

Take segments ST and S'T'. If we extend them they will intersect at right angle.

It is the indication that the rotation is 90° or 270° but not 180°, when the corresponding segments come parallel.

The QRST is in the quadrant IV and Q'R'S'T' is in the quadrant III, which mean the rotation is 90° clockwise or 270° counterclockwise.

<u>This rotation rule is:</u>

  • (x, y) → (y, -x)

We also see the points S and T have x-coordinate of 5 but their images have y-coordinates of -6. It means the translation to the right by 1 unit was the step before rotation.

<u>We now can conclude the correct choice is D:</u>

  • A translation 1 unit to the right followed by a 270-degree counterclockwise rotation about the origin

At each mile marker for the first five miles of a marathon, Ellie was 18 seconds, 9 seconds, 14 seconds, 6 seconds, and 3 second
mixas84 [53]
The mean is the average.

Let A = mean

A = (18 + 14 + 9 + 6 + 3)/5

A = 50/5

A = 10

Ellie's mean time is 10 seconds.
