Option B

48th term of arithmetic sequence is -152

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that a arithmetic sequence has explict formula,

$a_n = -11 + (n - 1)(-3)$

To find: 48th term of the arithmetic sequence

The nth term of arithmetic sequence can be found by substituting the required value of n in the explict formula

So 48th term of the arithmetic sequence can be found by substituting n = 48 in explict formula

$a_n = -11 + (n - 1)(-3)$

Plug in n = 48

$a_{48} = -11 + (48 - 1)(-3)$

On solving we get,

$a_{48} = -11 + (47)(-3)\\\\a_{48} = -11 - 141\\\\a_{48} = - 152$

Thus 48th term of arithmetic sequence is -152

Type an equation for the line

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

$y=-\frac{2}{3}x+1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the equation of the line given in the graph is,

y = mx + b

Where 'm' is the slope of the line

And 'b' represents the y-intercept

Since slope of a line passing through two points $(x_1, y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ is modeled by,

m = $\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

If this line passes through (-3, 3) and (3, -1),

m = $\frac{3+1}{-3-3}$

m = $-\frac{4}{6}$

= $-\frac{2}{3}$

And 'b' = 1

Equation of this line will be,

$y=-\frac{2}{3}x+1$

Find the volume of the solid whose base is the region Ix I Iy I < 1 and whose vertical cross sections perpendicular to the y-

gavmur [86]

Answer:

volume of the solid = $\frac{\pi }{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

As given , the region : |x| + |y| $\leq$ 1

when y $\geq$ 0 ,

|x| + y = 1

⇒|x| = 1 - y

when y ≤ 0 ,

|x| - y = 1

⇒|x| = 1 + y

The given region is the rectangle with sides (0, 5) , (0, -5), (5, 0), (-5, 0)

As given , the vertical cross section are semicircle

As we know that the area of semi circle = $\frac{1}{2}$ $\pi x^{2}$

Now,

Volume = $\int\limits^0_-1 {\frac{\pi }{2} (1+y)^{2} } \, dy$ + $\int\limits^1_0 {\frac{\pi }{2} (1-y)^{2} } \, dy$

= $\frac{\pi }{2} (\frac{(1+y)^{3} }{3} )$ - $\frac{\pi }{2} (\frac{(1-y)^{3} }{3} )$

= $\frac{\pi }{6}$ [1-0] - $\frac{\pi }{6}$ [0-1]

= $\frac{\pi }{6} + \frac{\pi }{6} = 2\frac{\pi }{6} = \frac{\pi }{3}$

⇒volume of the solid = $\frac{\pi }{3}$

identify the equation that does not belong with the other three. explain your reasoning. 6+x=9 | 15= x+12 | x+9 =11 | 7+x=10

Katena32 [7]

Answer is x+9=11

6+x=9
x=3

15=x+12
x=3

7+x=10
x=3

x+9=11
x=2

So x+9=11 has a different x value than the rest of the equations. So it doesn't belong with the other three.

Which is larger 1:40 or 1:60

agasfer [191]

1:40.

1:40 is equal to 1/40, while 1:60 is equal to 1/60.

1/40 is the bigger fraction, so 1:40 is the correct answer.
