S = 1 + 3 + 5 + ... + 11 + 13 + 15

S = 15 + 13 + 11 + ... + 5 + 3 + 1

==> 2S = (1 + 15) + (3 + 13) + (5 + 11) + ... + (15 + 1)

There are 8 terms in the sum, so

2S = 8 * 16 = 128

S = 128/2 = 64

Answer:

The answer is 30°

Step-by-step explanation:

$when \: \: \sqrt{3} \sin( \alpha ) - \cos( \alpha ) = 0 \\ \sqrt{3} \sin( \alpha ) = \cos( \alpha ) \\ multiply \: by \: \frac{1}{ \sqrt{3} \cos( \alpha ) } \\ then \\ \frac{ \sin( \alpha ) }{ \cos( \alpha ) } = \frac{1}{ \sqrt{3} } \\ \tan( \alpha ) = \frac{1}{ \sqrt{3} } \\ then \: \alpha = 30$

The lowest number of people at a table is 0.

<h3>What is the lowest number of people at a table?</h3>

A dot plot is a graph that is used to represent the frequency of a data set. The dots in a dot plot represent the frequency of a number. The greater the height of a number, the higher its frequency. A dot plot is also known as a strip plot or a dot chart.

Looking at the dot plot, it can be seen that there are two dots above 2. This means that at two tables there was no one there.
