Find the 12th term of the arithmetic sequence given a3=116 and a7=180​

Mathematics
1 answer:
SOVA2 [1]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

nth term = a +(n-1)d

a3 = 116 ;   a + 2d = 116 ---------(i)

a7 = 180;   a + 6d = 180 -------(ii)

multiply (ii) by -1. so a will be eliminated

           a + 2d = 116 ---------(i)

(ii)*-1    <u>-a - 6d = -180</u> -------(ii)   { Now add the two equations}

              - 4d = -64

                   d = -64/-4

                  d = 16

Plug in the value of d in equation (i),

a + 2*16 = 116

a + 32 = 116

        a = 116 - 32

        a = 84

12th term = 84 + 11* 16 = 84 + 176 = 260

An English professor assigns letter grades on a test according to the following scheme. A: Top 9% of scores B: Scores below the
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

The minimum score required for an A grade is 83.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean of 72.3 and a standard deviation of 8.

This means that \mu = 72.3, \sigma = 8

Find the minimum score required for an A grade.

This is the 100 - 9 = 91th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.91, so X when Z = 1.34.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

1.34 = \frac{X - 72.3}{8}

X - 72.3 = 1.34*8

X = 83

The minimum score required for an A grade is 83.

In an apartment complex with 28 units, 19 of the renters keep a pet. What percentage does not keep a pet?
Aleks04 [339]

If 19 out of 28 renters keep a pet, there are 28-19 = 9 renters who don't keep a pet.

Whenever you have a subset of some set, and you want to know which percentage of the set the subset represents, you simply have to compute

\dfrac{\text{number of elements in the subset}}{\text{number of elements in the set}}\times 100

So, in your case, you're wondering what percentage of 28 does 9 represent. So, the formula becomes

\dfrac{9}{28}\times 100 = 0.32\overline{142857}\times 100 = 32.\overline{142857} \approx 32.14\%

Square root 1.96? is rational irrational
Kruka [31]

Answer:

Rational

Step-by-step explanation:

An irrational number is a number with forever continuing decimals. Plug it into the calc and you can see if there is a long decimal line that ends. You should get 1.4 in the calc, and since it does end, it is a rational number.
