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

At the end of a snow storm, Audrey saw there was a lot of snow on her front lawn.
Montano1993 [528]

An equation that represents the depth of snow on Audrey's lawn, in inches, t hours after the snow stopped falling is S = 10 - 2t

In this question, there was a depth of 10 inches of snow on the lawn when the storm ended and then it started a melting at a rate of 2 inches per hour.

We need to write an equation for S in terms of t, snow representing the depth of snow on Audrey's lawn, in inches, t hours after the snow stopped falling.

So, the equation would be,

S = 10 - 2t

Therefore,  an equation that represents the depth of snow on Audrey's lawn, in inches, t hours after the snow stopped falling is S = 10 - 2t

In an experiment you do a chi-square test comparing observed and expected progeny. Your calculated chi square is 0.375. With 1 d
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

It mean that the observed progeny is similar than the expected progeny. There is no a relationship between the categorical variables.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Chi-squared test is used to test the relationship between categorical variables. A categorical variable is a non-numerical variable. The null hypothesis of the Chi-squared test is that categorical variables are independent; it means that the frequencies are not dependent on the variable. It is important to know that the Chi-squared test does not measure causality, it only measures the relationship. To reject the null hypothesis, you usually need a probability lower than 0.05, but in this case, the probability was way higher than 0.05, it was between 0.5 and 0.9.

Find the values of x and y.
vova2212 [387]

Look at the picture.

We have the equation (1) 12x + 4y = 40.

We know, the sum of the acute angles in a right triangle is 90°.

Therefore we have the equation (2) (12x + 4y) + (17x - y) = 90

Substitute (1) to (2):

40 + 17x - y = 90        <em>subtract 40 from both sides</em>

17x - y = 50   (3)

We have the system of equations:

\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}12x + 4y = 40&|:4\\17x-y=50\end{array}\right\\\underline{+\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}3x + y = 10\\17x-y=50\end{array}\right}\ \text{add both side of equations}\\.\qquad20x=60\qquad|:20\\.\qquad x=3

Substitute the value of x to (3)

17(3)-y=50\\51-y=50\qquad|-51\\-y=-1\to y=1

Answer: x = 3 and y = 1.
