If the sum of four consecutive numbers is 854, what is the third one?

Mathematics

lukranit [14]3 years ago

Answer:

214

Step-by-step explanation:

The set up would be x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) + (x + 3) = 854, naturally as the numbers are consecutive. Solving for x:

x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) + (x + 3) = 854,

x + x + 1 + x + 2 + x + 3 = 854,

4x + 1 + 2 + 3 = 854,

4x + 6 = 854,

4x = 854 - 6 = 848,

x = 848/4 = 212

The third number then should be 212 + 2 = 214

Determine the total number of proper subsets of the set of letters from the English alphabet a,b, c, ...,j. The number of proper
Inga [223]
\{a,b,c,\ldots,j\} has ten elements, so any proper subset has at most nine of these elements.

The number of ways of taking any 0\le n\le 9 letters from this set is given by the binomial coefficient,

\dbinom{10}n=\dfrac{10!}{n!(10-n)!}

and in particular, the total number of ways to picking proper subsets is

\displaystyle\sum_{n=0}^9\binom{10}n=\dbinom{10}0+\dbinom{10}1+\cdots+\dbinom{10}9

Without computing each term directly, let's instead use a direct result from the binomial theorem, which says

\displaystyle\sum_{n=0}^N\binom Nna^nb^{N-n}=(a+b)^N

If we replace a=b=1, then we're left with

\displaystyle\sum_{n=0}^N\binom Nn=(1+1)^N=2^N

We can use this to evaluate our sum directly:

\displaystyle\sum_{n=0}^9\binom{10}n=\sum_{n=0}^{10}\binom{10}n-\binom{10}{10}=2^{10}-1=1023

Draw a line representing the "rise" and a
schepotkina [342]

The slope (m) of the line in the given graph, in simplest form, is: 5/8.

<h3>How to Find the Slope of a Line?</h3>

The slope (m) of a line is calculated as the ratio of the rise to the run. Which is the same thing as, change in y/change in x.

The rise line is the red line while the run line is represented with the the blue line.

The line is declining, so the slope (m) will be a negative value.

Slope (m) = rise/run = 5 units/8 units

Slope (m) = 5/8

Thus, the slope (m) of the line in the given graph, in simplest form, is: 5/8.
