Answer:

The value of the sum is 1078

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise how to find the sum of the arithmetic series

- In the arithmetic series there is a constant difference between each

 two consecutive terms

- Ex:

# 4 , 9 , 14 , 19 , 24 , .......... (+ 5)

# 25 , 15 , 5 , -5 , -15 , .......... (-10)

- So if the first term is a and the constant difference between each two

  consecutive terms is d, then

  U1 = a , U2 = a + d , U3 = a + 2d , U4 = a + 3d , ..........

- Then the nth term is Un = a + (n - 1)d

- The sum of n terms is Sn = n/2[a + L] , where L is the last term in

 the series

* Lets solve the problem

∵ The arithmetic series is 7 + 11 + 15 + 19 + ......................... + 91

∴ The first term (a) is 7

∴ The last term is (L) 91

- Lets find the constant difference

∵ 11 - 7 = 4 and 15 - 11 = 4

∴ The constant difference (d) is 4

- Lets find the sum of the series from 7 to 91

∵ Sn = n/2[a + L]

∵ a = 7 and L = 91

∴ Sn = n/2[7 + 91]

- We need to know how many terms in the series

∵ L is the last term and equals 91 lets find its position in the series

∵ Un = a + (n - 1)d

∵ a = 7 , d = 4 and Un = 91

∴ 91 = 7 + (n - 1)(4) ⇒ subtract 7 from both sides

∴ 84 = (n - 1)(4) ⇒ divide both sides by 4

∴ 21 = n - 1 ⇒ add 1 to both sides

∴ n = 22

∴ The number of the terms in the series is 22

- Lets find the sum of the 22 terms (S22)

∴ S22 = 22/2[7 + 91]

∴S22 = 11[98] = 1078

* The value of the sum is 1078

Why is it impossible to list the set of rational numbers using the roster method?
dsp73
It is impossible to list the set of rational numbers using the roster method because the set of rational numbers is uncountable/inumerable.

There is no way to list all the members of the set of rational numbers.

For an outdoor concert by the city orchestra, concert organizers estimate that 10,000 people will attend if it's not raining. If
Vlada [557]

Answer:

The number of expected people at the concert is 8,500 people

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to determine the expected number of people that will attend a concert if we are given the probabilities that it will rain and it will not rain.

We proceed as follows;

The probability that it will rain is 30% or 0:3

The probability that it will not rain would be 1 -0.3 = 0.7

Now, we proceed to calculate the number of people that will attend by multiplying the probabilities by the expected number of people when it rains and when it does not rain.

Mathematically this is;

Number of expected guests = (probability of not raining * number of expected guests when it does not rain) + (probability of raining * number of expected guests when it rains)

Let’s plug values;

Number of expected guests = (0.3 * 5,000) + (0.7 * 10,000) = 1,500 + 7,000 = 8,500 people
