Answer:

S_{31}=71.3


Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is given by the formula,

U_n=a_1+(n-1)d


We were given that the 9th term is 17.


\Rightarrow 17=a_1+(9-1)(-2.1)


\Rightarrow 17=a_1+(8)\times(-2.1)


\Rightarrow 17=a_1-\frac{84}{5}


\Rightarrow 17+\frac{84}{5}=a_1


\Rightarrow a_1=\frac{169}{5}


The sum of the first n-terms is given by the formula,


S_n=\frac{n}{2}(2a_1+(n-1)d)


To find S_{31}, we substitute n=31, a_1=\frac{169}{5} and d=-2.1.


\Rightarrow S_{31}=\frac{31}{2}(2(\frac{169}{5}+(31-1)(-2.1))


\Rightarrow S_{31}=\frac{31}{2}(2(\frac{169}{5}+(30)(-2.1))



\Rightarrow S_{31}=\frac{31}{2}(\frac{23}{5})


\Rightarrow S_{31}=\frac{713}{10}


\Rightarrow S_{31}=71.3

How do you subtract 9 2/6 - 6 5/6 =
DerKrebs [107]
9 2/6 = ((9*6)+2) / 6 = (54+2) / 6 = 56 / 6
6 5/6 = ((6*6) + 5) / 6  = (36+5) / 6 = 41 / 6

9 2/6 - 6 5/6 = 56 / 6 - 41 / 6 = 15 / 6 = 2 3/6 = 2 1/2

Evaluate the inverse trigonometric function Sin^-1(-1). Give answers in both radians and degrees.
grin007 [14]

Answer:

B) Sin^-1(-1) = 3pi/2 or 270°

D) Sin^-1(-1) = -pi/2 or -90°

Step-by-step explanation:

Sine function:

The sine function is -1 at 270º(-90º), which is 3pi/2 = -pi/2.

Inverse sine:

The input of the inverse sine function is a value, and the output are the angles which have the sine equal to the input.

Sin^-1(-1)

Angles for which the sine are -1, that is 3pi/2 or 270° and -pi/2 or -90°. Thus, options B and D are correct.
