First term ,a=4 , common difference =4-7=-3, n =50
sum of first 50terms= (50/2)[2×4+(50-1)(-3)]

derivation of the formula for the sum of n terms
Progression, S
S=a1+a2+a3+a4+...+an

S=a1+(a1+d)+(a1+2d)+(a1+3d)+...+[a1+(n−1)d] → Equation (1)

S=an+an−1+an−2+an−3+...+a1

S=an+(an−d)+(an−2d)+(an−3d)+...+[an−(n−1)d] → Equation (2)

Add Equations (1) and (2)
2S=(a1+an)+(a1+an)+(a1+an)+(a1+an)+...+(a1+an)

2S=n(a1+an)
S=n/2(a1+an)

Substitute an = a1 + (n - 1)d to the above equation, we have
S=n/2{a1+[a1+(n−1)d]}
S=n/2[2a1+(n−1)d]

The measures of a pair of consecutive angles of a parallelogram have the ratio 5:7. Find the measure of each angle of the parall

Margaret [11]

5 : 7 = 5x : 7x

Sum of a pair of consecutive angles of a parallelogram = 180⁰.

5x+7x=180
12x = 180
x= 15

5x=15*5 = 75⁰
7x=15*7 = 105⁰

Two angles are 75⁰ each,
and 2 angles 105⁰ each.

Check:
Sum of angles in the parallelogram is 360⁰.
75*2 + 105*2 = 360
360 = 360 True

A wooden jewelry box has the shape of a prism with a regular hexagonal base of 85.3 in2. The sides of the hexagonal base are all

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

792.9 in²

Step-by-step Explanation:

Given:

Area of the base of the regular hexagonal prism box (B) = 85.3 in²

Each side length of hexagonal base (s) = 5.73 in

Height of prism box (h) = 18.10 in

Required:

Surface area of the wood used in making the hexagonal prism box

SOLUTION:

Surface area for any given regular prism can be calculated using the following formula: (Perimeter of Base × height of prism) + 2(Base Area)

Perimeter of the hexagonal base of the prism box = 6(5.73) (Note: hexagon has 6 sides.)

Perimeter of base = 34.38 in

Height = 18.10 in

Base area is already given as 85.3 in²

Surface area of the hexagonal prism box $= (34.38*18.10) + 2(85.3)$

$= 622.278 + 170.6 = 792.878 in^2$

Surface area of the wood used in making the jewelry box ≈ 792.9 in²

A manufacturer knows that their items have a normally distributed length, with a mean of 13.1 inches, and standard deviation of

Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

0.73% probability that their mean length is less than 11.1 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we have to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central limit theorem:

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , a large sample size can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation, which is also called standard error $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$
