Answer: The missing number in the sequence is \frac{7}{6}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

\frac{1}{6},\frac{1}{2},\frac{5}{6},----------,\frac{11}{2}

First term = a= \frac{1}{6}

Common difference = d is given by

d=a_2-a_1\\\\\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{6}\\\\=\frac{6-2}{12}\\\\=\frac{4}{12}=\frac{1}{3}\\\\Similarly,\\d=a_3-a_2\\\\=\frac{5}{6}-\frac{1}{2}\\\\=\frac{10-6}{12}\\\\=\frac{4}{12}\\\\=\frac{1}{3}

Therefore, it forms an arithmetic sequence.

Since, a_4 is missing,

So,

a_4=a+3d\\\\a_4=\frac{1}{6}+3\times \frac{1}{3}\\\\a_4=\frac{1}{6}+1\\\\a_4=\frac{1+6}{6}\\\\a_4=\frac{7}{6}

Hence, the missing number in the sequence is \frac{7}{6}

This is an <span>arithmetic progression at a rate of 2/6. 

So 1/6 + 2/6 = 3/6 (1/2)
3/6 + 2/6 = 5/6
5/6 + 2/6 = 7/6
....
29/6 + 2/6 = 31/6 
31/6 +2/6 = 33/6 (11/2)</span>

Which linear inequality represents the graph below?
muminat

Answer:

The answer would be B

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason that we know this is because the line is falling and because it is a solid line then we know that it is ≥ and not just >.  the solid line already gets rid of C and D.  A is a positive number which would cause the line to go the opposite direction.  Therefore B is your only answer left.

What do you know about a quadratic equation that has the following points (2, 0) and (10, 0)?
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

C.  The x-coordinate of the vertex must be 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The parabola intercepts the x-axis when y = 0.

Therefore, if the quadratic equation has the points (2, 0) and (10, 0) then the x-intercepts or "zeros" are x = 2 and x = 10.

The x-coordinate of the vertex is the midpoint of the zeros.

\sf \implies midpoint=\dfrac{2+10}{2}=6

Therefore, the solution is option C.

<u>Additional Information</u>

The leading coefficient of a quadratic tells us if the parabola opens upwards or downwards:

  • Positive leading coefficient = parabola opens upwards
  • Negative leading coefficient = parabola opens downwards

We have not been given this information and so therefore cannot determine the way in which it opens.

As we do not know the way in which way the parabola opens, we cannot determine if the parabola will have a negative or positive y-intercept.

We have not been given the full quadratic equation, and so we cannot determine if the parabola is wider (or narrower) than the parent function.
