The value of z is zero

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is the steepness of the line.

The formula for slope is given by:

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\Here\\(x_1,y_1)\ are\ the\ coordinates\ of\ first\ point\ on\ line\\(x_2,y_2)\ are\ the\ coordinates\ of\ second\ point\ on\ line$

Here

(x1,y1) = (1,z)

(x2,y2) = (2,8)

So,

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\8 = \frac{8-z}{2-1}\\8=\frac{8-z}{1}\\8-8 = -z\\z = 0$

The value of z is zero

It'd be easier to do #18 if y ou were to break it up:

14* (first term + 14th term)
Sum from n=1 to 14 of n = S = ---------------------------------
14 2

14(1+14)
= ---------------- = 7(15) = 105
2

The sum of twice that is 210. The sum of "1 from n=1 to n=14" is just 14.

The final sum is 210 + 14 = 224 (answer)

Answer:

11.33 in. to the nearest hundredth.

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of the shaded area = length of the 2 straight lines + the length of the 2 arcs = 4 + length of the 2 arcs.

Calculate the length of the outer arc:

This equals (30 / 360) * perimeter of the largest circle

= 1/12 * 2 π * 8

= 4/3 π in.
