In an arithmetic series a1= -14 and a5=30 find the sum of the first 5 terms

Mathematics

Oxana [17]3 years ago

The sum of the 5 terms in the arithmetic series is 40.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1;  First we need to determine the three values between a1= -14 and a5=30. The difference between the first and fifth value = 30 - (-14) = 30 + 14 = 44.

Since there are 4 values after a1 we divide the difference by the number of terms, the difference between each term = 44 / 4 = 11. So the difference between each term is 11.

Step 2; To find out the terms we just add the difference to the previous number.

a1 = -14.

a2 = -14 + 11 = -3.

a3 = -3 + 11 = 8.

a4 = 8 + 11 = 19.

a5 = 19 + 11 = 30.

So a1 + a2 + a3 + a4 + a5 = -14 -3 + 8 + 19 + 30 = 40.

When the p-value is used for hypothesis testing, the null hypothesis is rejected if _____
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are to give the reason why we would reject the null hypothesis during the hypothesis testing.

In considering whether to accept the null hypothesis or reject the null hypothesis, we have to take into consideration two things.

The p-value and the alpha value. The p-value refers to the probability which is directly obtainable from the standard score which is referred to as the z-score while the alpha refers to the level of significance.

Now, when the p-value is less than alpha, we simply reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternative hypothesis. In a case however, we have the value of p greater than or equal to the significance level alpha, we simply accept the null hypothesis in this case.

The question asks for a rejection case and this can happen only when the p-value is less than the level of significance alpha

Find an equation of the line perpendicular to the graph of 28x-7y=9 that passes through the point at (4,1)
kifflom [539]

If it is perpendicular to the line 14x-7y=4, then we know our line has the opposite and inverse slope of that line. Solving for y of the first line, we get y=2x-(4/7). All we care about is the coefficient of the x term, because that will give us our slope. The slope of the first line is 2, so the slope of out line is the opposite and inverse of that slope, which -(1/2).

Plugging into our slope- point formula, where y1=(-9), x1=2, and m=(-1/2), then:

y-(-9)=(-1/2)(x-2)

y+9=(-1/2)x+1

y=(-1/2)x-8
