If the <em>n</em>-th term of the sequence is given by <em>n</em> ² - 2, then the 5th term is obtained by simply replacing <em>n</em> with 5 :
5² - 2 = 25 - 2 = 23
One solution is the answer
Answer:
She went on the slide 8 times and on the roller coaster 4 times
Step-by-step explanation:
We convert each statements to a mathematical equation.
Firstly, let's represent the number of times she went on the coaster with R and the number of times on the slide with S. We know quite well she went on 12 rides. Hence the summation of both number of times yield 12.
Mathematically, R + S = 12. ........(i)
Now we also know her total wait time was 3hours. Since an hour equals 60 minutes, her total wait time would equal 180 minutes.
To get a mathematical representation for the wait time, we multiply the number of roller coaster rides by 25 and that of the slides by 10.
Mathematically, 25R + 10S = 180 .......(ii)
Here we now have two equations that we can solve simultaneously.
From equation 1 we can say R = 12 - S. We can then substitute this into equation 2 to yield the following:
25(12 - s) + 10s = 180
300 - 25s + 10s = 180
300 - 25s + 10s = 180
300 - 15s = 180
15s = 300 - 180
15s = 120
S = 120/15
S = 8
S = 8 , and R = 12 - S = 12 - 8 = 4
Answer:
Jillian has 720 shares
Step-by-step explanation:
Find 60% 1,200 shares
Convert 60% to decimal.
0.6
Multiply to find 60% of 1,200
0.6 x 1,200 = 720
720 shares
There exists a trigonometric identity which states that,
sin (A - B) = sin A cos B - cos A sin B
This is very similar to the given expression with A equal to 57° and B equal to 13°. The simplified form of the angle is,
sin (57° - 13°) = sin 44°
