A new movie is released each year for 14 years to go along with a popular book series. Each movie is 2 minutes longer than the l

ast to go along with a plot twist. The first movie is 70 minutes long. Use an arithmetic series formula to determine the total length of all 14 movies. A. 2,058 minutes B. 1,162 minutes C. 294 minutes D. 166 minutes

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

If you use the general equation for an arithmetic sequence,

a_{n}=a_{1}+d(n-1),

where aₙ is the number of minutes for movie n,

a₁ is the length of the first movie in minutes, and

d is the difference between each movie, in minutes

Our sequence is this:

a_{n}=70+2(n-1)

If we want the length of the second movie (we already know the length of the first), we fill in n with 2:

a_{2}=70+2(2-1)

which gives us a length of 72.  Now for the length of movie n = 3:

a_{3}=70+2(3-1)

which gives us a length of 74.  Now for the length of movie n = 4:

a_{4}=70+2(4-1)

which gives us a length of 76.  One more and I'm sure you'll notice the pattern:

a_{5}=70+2(5-1)

which gives us a length of 78.  Now we will find the length of the 14th movie and add up by 2's all the way up to that number of minutes:

a_{14}=70+2(14-1)

which gives up a length of 96 minutes.  We will add up by 2's from 70 to 96:

70+72+74+76+78+80+82+84+86+88+90+92+94+96=1,162 min

Which representation has a constant of variation of -2.5
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The constant of variation is found using the slope formula:

\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

The given relation is

X : -2 , -3, -4, -5  

Y : -5, -7.5,-10,-12.5

We can use any two ordered pair to find the constant of variation.

Using (-2,-5) and (-3,-7.5), we have

m=\frac{-7.5--5}{-3--2} =\frac{-2.5}{-1} =2.5

The constant of variation is 2.5

We need to repeat this for all the options to identify the one with -2.5 as slope.

unfortunately, you did not provide the remaining options.

I need all these before the morning!! For 20 points
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

15) Option B. 3

16) Option H. 144

17) Option B. -21

18) Option H. a^4 + 2

19) Option E. -18

20) Option G. 60

Step-by-step explanation:

15) 217/4 = 54 with a remainder of 1

    217 = 4 ⋅ 54 + 1

So, the 217th digit after the decimal point of 0.3456 is one of the 4n+1st digits (with n=54) and must be 3.

16) a = 1/2, p = 1/16 * 48^2

    = 144cm^2

17) when you solve the equation x^2 + 4x - 21 = 0 you get two solutions.

one is x = 3 and the second one is x = -7. The question is asking for the product so you will multiply these two x values. 3 * -7 = -21.

18) the factors of a^16 - 16 are: (a^8 + 4) (a^4 + 2) (a^4 -2)

Out of these factors that we get, (a^4 + 2) is the only polynomials listed in the answer choices.

19) 2n - 5 / n when n = 1/4

= 2(1/4) - 5 / 1/4

= -18

20) The machine is reading 40 pages in 1 hour, how many will it read in 90 minutes?

So, there are 60 minutes in an hour and the machine is reading 40 pages in 60 minutes. Meaning it is reading 20 pages in half an hour. So 20 + 20 = 40, so we are correct, the machine is indeed reading 20 pages in 30 mins. 90-60 mins = 30 mins.

How many pages is it reading in 30 mins? 20 right. So 40 + 20 = 60

The machine will read 60 pages in 90 mins.
