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

WITCHER [35]

The heart pumps 750*24/9=2000 gallons, and the kidney pumps 100*24/6=400 gallons. This is a difference of 2000-400=1600 gallons.

The arch of a bridge forms the upper half of an ellipse. The arch is 6 meters above the 20-meter-wide river. Write an equation f

aksik [14]

Answer:

$\frac{x^2}{36} + \frac{y^2}{100} = 1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Required

The equation of the ellipse

This is calculated as:

$\frac{x^2}{a^2} + \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1$

Where:

$b =6$ ---- height

$a = 0.5 * 20 =10$ --- width

So:

$\frac{x^2}{a^2} + \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1$

$\frac{x^2}{6^2} + \frac{y^2}{10^2} = 1$

$\frac{x^2}{36} + \frac{y^2}{100} = 1$
