Given the following sequence, find the 23rd term: 10.5, 11, 11.5, 12, 12.5, . . .

1 answer:

6 0

10.5, 11, 11.5, 12, 12.5...this is an arithmetic sequence with a common difference of 0.5

an = a1 + (n - 1) * d
n = term to find = 23
a1 = first term = 10.5
d = common difference = 0.5

sub and solve

a(23) = 10.5 + (23 - 1) * 0.5
a(23) = 10.5 + 22 * 0.5
a(23) = 10.5 + 11
a(23) = 21.5 <===

Answer:

D) y=-1/2x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

D) y=-1/2x+4

In order to be parallel, it has to have the same slope (-1/2). Also, if you plug in (-2,5) for x and y, it does pass through those coordinates.

Answer:

0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

A: P(1) = .6, P(2) = .5, P(1 and 2) = .3

P(1 or 2) = P(1) + P(2) - P(1 and 2) .6 + .5 - .3 = 0.8

What is the value of x when 2x+3=3x-4

slavikrds [6]

2x+3=3x-4
try to isolate the x term
you must do the same thing to both sides or else it won't be equal anymore

2x+3=3x-4
add 4 to both sides
2x+3+4=3x+4-4
2x+7=3x+0
subtract 2x from both sides
2x-2x+7=3x-2x
0+7=x
7=x

the answer is x=7

Se quiere construir un muro de 4 m de alto, 12 m de largo y 10 cm de espesor. ¿Cuántos ladrillos de 8 cm de alto, 20 cm de largo

Llana [10]

Answer:

3000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by finding the volume of the wall. The volumen of the wall can be considered as the volume of a rectangular prism. The volume of a rectangular prism is given by:

$V_w=w*l*h\\\\Where:\\\\w=Width=10cm=0.1m\\l=Length=12m\\h=Height=4m$

So the volume of the wall is:

$V_w=0.1*12*4=4.8m^3$

Now, we can find the volume of the brick using the same method since a brick can be considered as a rectangular prism as well:

$V_b=w*l*h\\\\For\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}brick\\\\w=10cm=0.1m\\l=20cm=0.2m\\h=8cm=0.08m$

Hence:

$V_b=(0.1)*(0.2)*(0.08)=0.0016m^3$

In order to know how many bricks are required to build the wall, we just need to fill the wall volume with the number of bricks of this volume. So:

$V_w=nV_b\\\\Where\\\\n=Number\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}bricks$

Solving for n:

$n=\frac{V_w}{V_b} =\frac{4.8}{0.0016} =3000$

Therefore, we need 3000 bricks to build that wall.

Translation:

Comencemos por encontrar el volumen del muro. El volumen del muro puede considerarse como el volumen de un prisma rectangular. El volumen de un prisma rectangular viene dado por:

$V_w=w*l*h\\\\Donde:\\\\w=Espesor=10cm=0.1m\\l=Largo=12m\\h=Alto=4m$

Entonces el volumen del muro es:

$V_w=0.1*12*4=4.8m^3$

Ahora, podemos encontrar el volumen del ladrillo utilizando el mismo método, ya que un ladrillo también puede considerarse como un prisma rectangular:

$V_b=w*l*h\\\\Para\hspace{3}el\hspace{3}ladrillo\\\\w=10cm=0.1m\\l=20cm=0.2m\\h=8cm=0.08m$

Por lo tanto:

$V_b=(0.1)*(0.2)*(0.08)=0.0016m^3$

Para saber cuántos ladrillos se requieren para construir el muro, solo necesitamos llenar el volumen del muro con la cantidad de ladrillos de este volumen. Entonces:

$V_w=nV_b\\\\Donde\\\\n=Numero\hspace{3}de\hspace{3}ladrillos$

Resolviendo para n:

$n=\frac{V_w}{V_b} =\frac{4.8}{0.0016} =3000$

Por lo tanto, necesitamos 3000 ladrillos para construir ese muro.
