Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the given graph, the slope of the line is expressed as

Slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

y2 = 19.5

y1 = 9.5

x2 = 6

x1 = 1

Slope = (19.5 - 9.5)/(6-1)

Slope = 10/5 = 2

The successive terms is increasing by 2

The formula for the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is expressed as

Tn = a + (n - 1)d

Where

a is the first term of the sequence

n is the number of terms in the sequence.

d is the common difference.

From the information given,

a = 9.5

Tn = an

d = 2

The explicit rule for the arithmetic sequence will be

an = 9.5 + 2(n-1)

The circumference of a circle is 28. Contained in that circle is a smaller circle with area 36π. A point is selected at random f

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

$Pr = \frac{9}{49}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$d = 28$ --- big circle

$A_2 = 36 \pi$ --- area of small circle

Required

Probability that a point selected lands on the small circle

Calculate the area of the big circle using;

$A_1 = \pi r^2$

Where

$r = d/2$

So, we have:

$r = 28/2 = 14$

This gives:

$A_1 = \pi * 14^2$

$A_1 = \pi * 196$

$A_1 = 196\pi$

The probability that a point selected lands on the small circle is calculated by dividing the area of the small cicle by the big circle

This gives:

$Pr = \frac{36\pi}{196\pi}$

$Pr = \frac{36}{196}$

Simplify

$Pr = \frac{9}{49}$

What is % of $2 = $1

ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

50%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $x$ be equal to the decimal when multiplied by 2 equals 1

$2x=1$

Divide both sides by 2

$\frac{2x}{2} =\frac{1}{2} \\x=0.5$

Multiply the decimal by 100 to get a percent

0.5×100=50%

I hope this helps!
