Answer:

The only common term is 33.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sequence 1:

n^{th}\text{ term: } 2n^2 + 1

Sequence 2:

n^{th}\text{ term: } 65 - 2n^2

Equating the two terms, we get,

2n^2 + 1 = 65 - 2n^2\\4n^2 = 64\\\\n^2 = \dfrac{64}{4}\\\\n^2 = 16\\n = \pm 4

Since, n cannot take a negative value, we get n = 4.

Thus, there is only 1 common term both the series have for n = 4.

Common term:

2(4)^2+ 1 - 65-2(4)^2 = 33

Thus, the only common term is 33.

A bank loaned out 16,000 ​$​, part of it at the rate of 6% per year and the rest at 14% per year. If the interest received in on
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

This question requires a comparison between two different variables 6% and 16% values.  If we let x=$ loaned on 6% loans and y=$ loaned on 16% loans, then we can relate two equations.

0.06x + 0.16y = $1500  --> referencing the interest earned from each percentage loaned.

x + y = $16000  --> referencing the total amount of money loaned out.

Rearrange either equation and substitute for a value in the other equation or use elimination to determine each individual variable.

300 juniors at Central High School took the ACT last year. The scores were distributed normally with a mean of 24 and a standard
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

150 students

Step-by-step explanation:

According to statement we have the following information

number of juniors=n=300

mean score=24

standard deviation score=4

The number of students that score above 24 is determined by

Number of students score above 24=number of juniors* P(student score above 24)

P(student score above 24)=P(x>24)=P(x-mean/sd>24-24/4)=P(z>0)=0.5.

Students score above 24=np=300*0.5=150

Hence there are 150 students scored above 24.
