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

The Late Show with David Leterman is seen by a relatively large percentage of household members who record the show for viewing
Zanzabum

Answer:

a) Null hypothesis:\mu \leq 40000  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu > 40000  

b) t=\frac{41182-40000}{\frac{19990}{\sqrt{1700}}}=2.438    

c) The first step is calculate the degrees of freedom, on this case:  

df=n-1=1700-1=1699  

Since the sample size is large enough we cna use the z distribution as an approximation for the statsitic on this case.

Since is a one right tailed test the p value would be:  

p_v =P(t_{(1699)}>2.438)=0.0074  

d) If we compare the p value and the significance level given \alpha=0.01 we see that p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis at 1% of signficance.  So we can conclude that the true mean is higher than 40000 at the significance level assumed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation  

\bar X=41182 represent the sample mean

s=19990 represent the sample standard deviation

n=1700 sample size  

\mu_o =40000 represent the value that we want to test

\alpha=0.01 represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.  

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

p_v represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)  

Part a: State the null and alternative hypotheses.  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the true mean is greater than 40000, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu \leq 40000  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu > 40000  

If we analyze the size for the sample is > 30 but we don't know the population deviation so is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:  

t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}  (1)  

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".  

Part b: Calculate the statistic

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:  

t=\frac{41182-40000}{\frac{19990}{\sqrt{1700}}}=2.438    

Part c: P-value

The first step is calculate the degrees of freedom, on this case:  

df=n-1=1700-1=1699  

Since the sample size is large enough we cna use the z distribution as an approximation for the statsitic on this case.

Since is a one right tailed test the p value would be:  

p_v =P(t_{(1699)}>2.438)=0.0074  

Part d: Conclusion  

If we compare the p value and the significance level given \alpha=0.01 we see that p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis at 1% of signficance.  So we can conclude that the true mean is higher than 40000 at the significance level assumed.

A cell phone company has a basic plan of $40 plus $0.45 for any minutes over 700. Before receiving his statement, John saw he wa
Darya [45]

Answer:

718\ min

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of minutes

y ----> the total charge in dollars

we know that

For x>700 min

y=0.45x+40

so

For y=48.10

substitute

48.10=0.45x+40

Multiply by 100 both sides

4,810=45x+4,000 ----> equation without decimals

solve for x

45x=4,810-4,000\\45x=810\\x=18\ min

To find out the total minutes we need to sum

18\ min+700\ min=718\ min

What is the mean of the measures of the three exterior angles of a triangle if two of the interior angles have measures of 63 an
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

  1. Mean score=120

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Areas of a triangle add upto 180degrees (63+78+x=180) 141+x= (x=180-141) x=39
  2. Areas on a straight line add upto 180degrees

180-78=102

180-63=117

180-39=141

  1. 102+117+141=360
  2. Mean=360/3 =120
