In an arithmetic​ sequence, the nth term an is given by the formula an=a1+(n−1)d​, where a1 is the first term and d is the commo

n difference.​ Similarly, in a geometric​ sequence, the nth term is given by 1an=a1•rn−1​,
where r is the common ratio. Use these formulas to determine

the indicated term in the given sequence.

Answer:

105th term of given series is

a_n=\dfrac{105}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given series is

\dfrac{1}{2},\ 1,\ \dfrac{3}{2},\ 2,\ \dfrac{5}{2}.....

As we can see,

\textrm{First term},a_1=\dfrac{1}{2}

Also,

1-\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{3}{2}-1=2-\dfrac{3}{3}=.....=\dfrac{1}{2}

hence, we can say given series is in arithmetic progression,

with common difference,

d=\ \dfrac{1}{2}

As given in question the nth term in A.P is given by

a_n=a_1+(n-1)d

since we have to find the 105th term, so we can write

   a_{105}=\dfrac{1}{2}+(105-1)\dfrac{1}{2}

              =\dfrac{1}{2}+\dfrac{104}{2}

              =\dfrac{105}{2}

Hence, the 105th term of given series of A.P is \dfrac{105}{2}.

Find the exact value by using a half angle identity.tan 75°
kramer

The trigonometric function is given as

\tan 75^{\circ}

Apply the half angle identity to find the value of tan 75 ,

\tan (\frac{u}{2})=\frac{\sin u}{1+\cos u}

Here,

\tan (\frac{150^{\circ}}{2})=\frac{\sin150^{\circ}}{1+cos150^{\circ}}\tan (75^{\circ})=\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{1-\frac{\sqrt[]{3}}{2}}=\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{2-\sqrt[]{3}}{2}}^{}\tan 75^{\circ}=\frac{1}{2-\sqrt[]{3}}

Now rationalize the function.

\tan 75^{\circ}=\frac{1}{2-\sqrt[]{3}}\times\frac{2+\sqrt[]{3}}{2+\sqrt[]{3}}=\frac{2+\sqrt[]{3}}{4-3}=\frac{2+\sqrt[]{3}}{1}

Again simplify the trigonometric function,

\tan 75^{\circ}=2+1.732=3.732

Hence the answer is 3.732.

Find the number of outcomes in the complement of the given event.
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

96

Step-by-step explanation:

Out of 270 apartments in a complex, 174 are subleased.

Given that :

Total number of apartments in complex = 270

Number subleased = 174

The complement of event A = not A

Therefore, The complement in this scenario is NOT SUBLEASED ;

Hence, the Number of apartments in complex not subleased is :

Total apartment in complex - number subleased

270 - 174 = 96
