670 = n/2[2*5+(n-1)*3]
670 = n/2[10+(n-1)*3]
1340 = n[10+3n-3]
1340 = n[7+3n]
1340 = 7n+3n^{2}
3n^{2}+7n-1340 = 0
n^{2}+\frac{7}{3}n-\frac{1340}{3} = 0
n^{2}+\frac{7}{3}n = \frac{1340}{3}
n^{2}+\frac{7}{3}n+\frac{49}{36} = \frac{1340}{3}+\frac{49}{36}
n^{2}+\frac{7}{3}n+\frac{49}{36} = \frac{16129}{36}
(n+\frac{7}{6})^2 = \frac{16129}{36}
n+\frac{7}{6} = \sqrt{\frac{16129}{36}}
n = -\frac{7}{6}+\sqrt{\frac{16129}{36}}
n = -1.167 + 21.167<u>
</u>n = 20<u>

You need 16 more terms not 17 because you already have 4 terms in the series so if you add those 4 terms to the other 16 terms to the series you get a total of 20 terms in total. I hope this helped.

Find the inverse of the matrix <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D-4%266%5C%5C8%26-12%5C%5C%
liraira [26]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

If there is a 2x2 matrix as  \left[\begin{array}{ccc}a&b\\c&d\\\end{array}\right]

The determinant is given by  \frac{1}{ad-bc}\left[\begin{array}{ccc}d&-b\\-c&a\\\end{array}\right]

<em>Now, if we calculate the value of "ad - bc", we see that:</em>

(-4)(-12)-(8)(6)=0

We can't calculate the inverse, the inverse doesn't exist. The answer is D.

Which of the following is not a true statement about pi?
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Option D.The ratio of the radius of a circle to its circumference

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Verify each statement</em>

A) The ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter

The statement is True

Because

C=\pi D

so

\pi=C/D

B) Approximated to be 3.14

The statement is True

Because \pi=3.14159265...

C) Approximated to be 22/7

The statement is True

Because

\frac{22}{7}=3.1423

D) The ratio of the radius of a circle to its circumference

The statement is not True

Because

\frac{r}{2\pi r}=\frac{1}{2\pi}

SOMEONE PLEASE JUST ANSWER THIS FOR BRAINLIEST!!!
Sloan [31]

ANSWER

P-G = 11{w}^{4} - 5 {w}^{2}  {z}^{2}   - 4z^{4}

EXPLANATION

The given polynomials are:

G =  - 3 {w}^{4}  + 2 {w}^{2}  {z}^{2}  + 5z^{4}

and

P = 8 {w}^{4}   - 3{w}^{2}  {z}^{2}  + z^{4}

We want to subtract these two polynomials.

P-G = 8 {w}^{4}   - 3{w}^{2}  {z}^{2}  + z^{4}  - (- 3 {w}^{4}  + 2 {w}^{2}  {z}^{2}  + 5z^{4} )

Expand the right hand side to obtain:

P-G = 8 {w}^{4}   - 3{w}^{2}  {z}^{2}  + z^{4}   + 3 {w}^{4}   -  2 {w}^{2}  {z}^{2}   -  5z^{4}

Group the similar terms:

P-G = 8 {w}^{4}  + 3 {w}^{4}- 3{w}^{2}  {z}^{2} -  2 {w}^{2}  {z}^{2}   -  5z^{4} + z^{4}

Combine the similar terms to get:

P-G = 11{w}^{4} - 5 {w}^{2}  {z}^{2}   - 4z^{4}
