Answer: D. 60100

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining the sum of n terms of an arithmetic sequence is expressed as

Sn = n/2[2a + (n - 1)d]

Where

n represents the number of terms in the arithmetic sequence.

d represents the common difference of the terms in the arithmetic sequence.

a represents the first term of the arithmetic sequence.

From the information given,

n = 200 terms

a = 2

d = 3

Therefore, the sum of the first 200 terms, S200 would be

S200 = 200/2[2 × 2 + (200 - 1)3]

S200 = 100[4 + 597)

S200 = 100 × 601 = 60100

a chili recipe calls for 6 lbs of ground beef for 25 servings how many pounds of ground beef are needed for 30 servings

masya89 [10]

First find the lbs per serving for the 25 servings. We do that by dividing 6 pounds by 25 serving. 6/25 = .24 lbs per serving. Now we need to times .24 by 30 to find out how many pounds of ground beef for 30 servings.

.24 times 30 = 7.2 lbs for 30 servings

Given

$a\sqrt{x+b}+c=d$

we have

$\sqrt{x+b}=\dfrac{d-c}{a}$

Squaring both sides, we have

$x+b=\dfrac{(d-c)^2}{a^2}$

And finally

$x=\dfrac{(d-c)^2}{a^2}-b$

Note that, when we square both sides, we have to assume that

$\dfrac{d-c}{a}>0$

because we're assuming that this fraction equals a square root, which is positive.

So, if that fraction is positive you'll actually have roots: choose

$a=1,\ b=0,\ c=2,\ d=6$

and you'll have

$\sqrt{x}+2=6 \iff \sqrt{x}=4 \iff x=16$

Which is a valid solution. If, instead, the fraction is negative, you'll have extraneous roots: choose

$a=1,\ b=0,\ c=10,\ d=4$

and you'll have

$\sqrt{x}+10=4 \iff \sqrt{x}=-6$

Squaring both sides (and here's the mistake!!) you'd have

$x=36$

which is not a solution for the equation, if we plug it in we have

$\sqrt{x}+10=4 \implies \sqrt{36}+10=4 \implies 6+10=4$

Which is clearly false

Assume that adults have IQ scores that are normally distributed with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 20. Find the prob

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

Randomly selected adult has an IQ less than 136 is 0.9641

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that, it is normal distribution with mean 100 and SD as 20.

So, let's use the formula of z-score

z= $\frac{x-mean}{SD}$

For this problem,

x= 136

Plug in this value into the formula

z-score= $\frac{136-100}{20}$

=1.8

Now, use z-score table to find the probability

Find the corresponding value for the row 1.8 and the column 0.00, we do get 0.9641

So, Randomly selected adult has an IQ less than 136 is 0.9641
