Answer:
The18th term of the given sequence is -128
Explanation:
To find the 18th term of the sequence:
42, 32, 22, 12, ..., we need to find the nth term of the sequence first.
The nth term of a sequence is given be the formula:
Where a is the first term, and d is the common difference.
Here, a = 42, d = 32 - 42 = -10
To find the 18th terem, substitute n = 18 into the nth term
very simple, we use the formula sin(a+b)=sinacosb +
sinbcosa and sin(20)=2sinacosa
5pi = 2pi/3+3pi/3,
First, we use sin(a+b)=sinacosb + sinbcosa
sin(5pi/3)=sin(2pi/3+3pi/3)=
sin(2pi/3+pi)=
sin(2pi/3)cos(pi) +sin(pi)cos(2pi/3)
but we know that sin(pi)=
0, and cos (pi) = -1, so sin(5pi/3)=
- sin(2pi/3)
now, use sin(2a)=2sinacosa,
sin(5pi/3)= - sin(2pi/3)= -2sin(pi/3)cos(pi/3)
sin<span>(5pi/3)=
-2sin(pi/3)cos(pi/3)</span>
<span>sin(pi/3)= 0.86,
cos(pi/3)=0.5, finally we have </span>sin<span>(5pi/3)= -0.86 x 0.5= -0.43</span>
Well, first of all, LCM means Lowest Common Multiple. So you have to write out the factors of each of the numbers. So that will be;
2= 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20
5=5, 10, 15, 20
So now, you have to pick out the numbers that are common to both numbers. So;
10, 20
10 and 20 are the only common numbers. So you have to look for the lowest common number. And that is 10. So the LCM is 10.. Hope i helped. Have a nice day.
Mike´s salary=x
Ron´s salary=2x
We can suggest the following equation:
x+2x=441
3x=441
x=441/3
x=147
Mike´s salary=147
Ron´s salary=2x=2(147)=294
Answer: Ron´s salary is $294 and Mike´s salry is $147.
