Answer:
D. 1.2
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of an arithmetic sequence is the product of the average term value and the number of terms.
The average term is often computed by averaging the first and last terms of the sequence. It can also be computed by averaging the middle two terms of the sequence (when there are an even number of terms, as here).
We are given a_13 is 1.9. We know that a_12 is 3.7 less, so is -1.8. Then the average of these two middle terms is ...
... (-1.8 + 1.9)/2 = 0.05
The product of this value and the number of terms (24) is ...
... 24·0.05 = 1.2 . . . . . the sum of 24 terms of the sequence
Answer:
Points scored in a basketball game vary directly with shots taken.
This means that this question can be solved
by proportions, using a rule of three.
How many would she have scored if she takes 60 shots?
Using a rule of three:
50 points - 40 shots
x points - 60 shots
Applying cross multiplication:
4x = 50 × 60
Divide from both sides
x = 50 × 1.25 = 75
Answer is 75
Step-by-step explanation:
Here is a easier explanation if you didn't understand clearly:
It asked for how many 60 shots would score.
You would look at the first time he scored which is 50 and took 40 shots. Divide them
50 ÷ 40 = 1.25 or 1.5
So now you know each point scores 1.25 or 1.5
Now you multiply 1.25 or 1.5 with how many shots to see how much was scored and in this case 60 shots.
60 × 1.25 or 60 × 1.5
& They both end up equaling just the same, 75.
Hope it made sense :)
Answer:
(-3, -5), because the point satisfies both equations.
Answer:
<em>Marika's calculation is correct</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Lori has erroneously identified a common ratio of the geometion sequence</em>
<em>one has to divide subsequent term by the preceding term as was correctly by Marika. so Marika's calculation is correct.</em>
<em>hope it helps...</em>
<em>have a great day !!!</em>
Consider triangle XYZ with vertices at points X(1,-3), Y(3,0) and Z(-1,-1). If triangle XYZ is reflected across the line y = 1, then the rule of reflection is
(x,y)→(x,-y+2).
The image X' of point X will have coordinates according to the given rule:
X(1,-3)→X'(1, -(-3)+2)=X'(1,5).
Answer: correct choice is D.
