The 9th term of an arithmetic series is 5/2

Mathematics
1 answer:
Verdich [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

- 8050

Step-by-step explanation:

The n th term of an arithmetic sequence is

a_{n} = a + (n - 1)d

where a is the first term and d the common difference.

We require to find both a and d

Given the 9 th term is 2.5 , then

a + 8d = 2.5 → (1)

Given the sum of the second and fifth term is 27, then

a + d + a + 4d = 27, that is

2a + 5d = 27 → (2)

Multiply (1) by - 2 and add to (2) to eliminate a

- 2a - 16d = - 5 → (3)

Add (2) and (3) term by term

- 11d = 22 ( divide both sides by - 11 )

d = - 2

Substitute d = - 2 into (1) and solve for a

a - 16 = 2.5 ( add 16 to both sides )

a = 18.5

The sum to n terms of an arithmetic sequence is

S_{n} = \frac{n}{2}[ 2a + (n - 1)d ], thus

S_{100} = 50 [ (2 × 18.5) + (99 × - 2) ] = 50(37 - 198) = 50(- 161) = - 8050

What Is The radius? (Round to the nearest tenth)
mr_godi [17]
The radius can be found with the Pythagorean theorem. Assuming r is the radius, 14²+r²=17². Multiply it out to 196+r²=289. Subtract 196 from both sides and you're left with r²=93. So, r=√93, or about 9.6 to the nearest tenth.

A triangle forms the front of the Pantheon in Rome, Italy. Classify the triangle based on its sides. Then classify it based on i
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

(See explanation for further details)

Step-by-step explanation:

Classification based on sides:

Equilateral - Three sides with same length.

Isosceles - Two sides with same length.

Scalene - No sides with same length.

Classification based on sides:

Acute-Angled - All angles are acute. (0^{\circ} < \theta < 90^{\circ}, 0^{\circ} < \alpha < 90^{\circ}, 0^{\circ} < \beta < 90^{\circ}, \theta + \alpha + \beta = 180^{\circ})

Right-Angled - One angle is right. (0^{\circ} < \theta < 90^{\circ};\alpha = 90^{\circ}, 0^{\circ} < \beta < 90^{\circ}, \theta + \alpha + \beta = 180^{\circ})

Obtuse-Angled - One angle is obtuse. (0^{\circ} < \theta < 90^{\circ},90^{\circ}
