The closed formula for  <span>an = an-1 – n will be found using the formula for arithmetic sequence given by:
an=a+d(n-1)
where
a=first term
d=common difference
n=number of terms
From the formula given:
a=4
d=n
thus the formula will be:
an=a+n(n-1)
an=4+n(n-1)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the pyramid = (1/3)*area of base *height

= (1/3)*10*24*13 = 1040 cubic units.

The total surface area = area of rectangular base + area of 2 isosceles triangles with a base of 24 units + area of 2 isosceles triangles with a base of 10 units.

Area of rectangular base = 24*10 = 240 sq units.

The slant height of isosceles triangles with a base of 24 units = [(10/2)^2+13^2]^0.5 = [25+169]^0.5 = 194^0.5 = 13.92838828 units.

The area of 2 isosceles triangles with a base of 24 units 2*24*13.92838828/2 = 334.2813187 sq units.

The slant height of isosceles triangles with a base of 10 units = [(24/2)^2+13^2]^0.5 = [144+169]^0.5 = 194^0.5 = 17.69180601 units.

The area of 2 isosceles triangles with a base of 10 units 2*10*17.69180601/2 = 176.9180601 sq units.

The total surface area of the pyramid = 240 + 334.2813187 + 176.9180601 = 591.9731247 sq units.

1/2x + 1/4y = 3 solve for y
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

y=-2x+12

Step-by-step explanation:

First, subtract 1/2 from each side

1/4y = -1/2x + 3 --> multiply each side by 4

y = -2x + 12 is your final answer

The table gives the probability distribution of the number of dvds sold per day at a music store. what is the probability of 5 o
nikklg [1K]

Let x represents the number of dvds sold per day:
To complete the probability distribution table, you need to add all the probabilities given and deduct that to 1 so that you can get the probability of 5-9, applying what I have said:Probability of 5-9:= 1 - (0.1875+0.4375+0.1250) = 1 – 0.75= 0.2500
But the question is not asking for the probability of 5-9, but 5 or more. So deduct the .1875 to 1 since .1875 only represents 0-4.P(X>= 5) = 1 - 0.1875 = 0.8125
