Answer:

-28.

Step-by-step explanation:

T(1) = 20 + 6 = 26.

This is an arithmetic series with:

nth term T(n) = 26 - 6(n - 1).

So T(10) = 26 - 6(10-1)

= 26 -54

= -28.

<h3>Answer is -28</h3>

==================================================

Work Shown:

T(2) = 20 means the second term is 20

T(1) = 26 because we go backwards from what the rule says (subtract 6) to step back one term. Going forward, 26-6 = 20.

Since a = 26 is the first term and d = -6 is the common difference, the nth term is

T(n) = a + d*(n-1)

T(n) = 26 + (-6)(n-1)

T(n) = 26 - 6n + 6

T(n) = -6n + 32

Plugging n = 1 into the equation above leads to T(1) = 26. Using n = 2 leads to T(2) = 20.

Plug in n = 10 to find the tenth term

T(n) = -6n + 32

T(10) = -6(10) + 32

T(10) = -60+32

T(10) = -28

Answer:

$\bold{495\pi} \approx \bold{1555.088 cm^3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

There was no figure but the question is clear

Volume of a cylinder is given by the formula $\bold{\pi r^2h}\\$

where r is radius of base of cylinder, h is the height

Volume of a cone is given by $\bold{\frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h}$

where r is the radius of base of cone, h is the height

The radius of the cylinder = $\frac{1}{2}$ (diameter) = $\frac{1}{2}$ (12) = 6cm

Height of cylinder = 15cm

Volume of cylinder $V_{cyl} = \pi (6)^2 15 = \pi (36)15 = \bold{540\pi}$

Radius of cone = $\frac{1}{2}$ (radius of cylinder) = $\frac{1}{2}$ (6) = 3 cm

Height of cone same as height of cylinder = 15cm

Volume of cone, $V_{cone} = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h = \frac{1}{3}\pi (3)^2 15 = \frac{1}{3}(9)15\pi = \bold{45\pi}\\$

Difference is the volume of the remaining solid

$V_{cyl} - V_{cone} = 540\pi - 45\pi = \bold{495\pi} \approx \bold{1555.088 cm^3}$

Choose any positive integer. Powers of two here are not very interesting, so choose something else. If the number you have chose

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the integer be 6 for even and 7 for odd (say)

For 6, we divide by 2, now get 3. Now we multiply by 3 and add 1 to get 10. Now since 10 is even divide by 5, now multiply by 3 and add 1 to get 16. Now divide by 2 again by 2 again by 2 again by 2 till we get rid of even numbers.

The result is 1, so multiply by 3 and add 1 we get 4 now divide 2 times by 2 to get 1, thus this result now again repeats after 2 times.

Say if we select off number 3, multiply by 3 and add 1 to get 10 now divide by 5, now repeat the same process as above for 5 until we get 1 and it gets repeated every third time.

Thus whether odd or even after some processes, we get 1 and the process again and again returns to 1.
