Modern Vehicles Company came up with two different plans for the next financial year. Plan Y: Increase vehicle production by 5%

every year. Plan Z: Increase production by 300 vehicles every year. If the company produced 10,000 vehicles in the present year, which plan will make the company produce more vehicles after a period of four years?

Answer: plan Y will produce more vehicles after 4 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Plan Y: Increase vehicle production by 5% every year. It means that the rate of production is in geometric progression. The formula for determining the sum of n terms, Sn of a geometric sequence is expressed as

Sn = (ar^n - 1)/(r - 1)

Where

n represents the number of term(years) in the sequence.

a represents the first term(number of vehicles in the present year) in the sequence.

r represents the common ratio.

From the information given,

a = 10000

r = 1 + 5/100 = 1.05

n = 4 years

Therefore, the sum of the vehicles produced in the first 4 years, S4 is

S4 = (10000 × 1.05^(4) - 1)/1.05 - 1

S4 = (10000 × 0.21550625)/0.05

S4 = 2155.0625/0.05

S4 = 43101 vehicles

2) Plan Z: Increase production by 300 vehicles every year. It means that the rate of production is in geometric progression. The formula for determining the sum of n terms of an arithmetic sequence is expressed as

Sn = n/2[2a + (n - 1)d]

Where

n represents the number of terms in the arithmetic sequence.

d represents the common difference of the terms in the arithmetic sequence.

a represents the first term of the arithmetic sequence.

From the information given,

n = 4 years

a = 10000

d = 300

Therefore, the sum of the first 4 terms, S4 would be

S4 = 4/2[10000 × 2 + (4 - 1)300]

S4 = 2[20000 + (3)300]

S4 = 2 × 20900

S4 = 41800 vehicles

cos θ = \frac{-4\sqrt{65} }{65}, sin θ = \frac{-7\sqrt{65} }{65}, cot  θ  = 4/7, sec  θ = \frac{-\sqrt{65} }{4}, cosec  θ  = \frac{-\sqrt{65} }{7}

<h3>What are trigonometric ratios?</h3>

Trigonometric Ratios are values of all the trigonometric functions based on the value of the ratio of sides in a right-angled triangle.

Sin θ: Opposite Side to θ/Hypotenuse

Tan θ: Opposite Side/Adjacent Side & Sin θ/Cos

Cos θ: Adjacent Side to θ/Hypotenuse

Sec θ: Hypotenuse/Adjacent Side & 1/cos θ

Analysis:

tan θ = opposite/adjacent = 7/4

opposite = 7, adjacent = 4.

we now look for the hypotenuse of the right angled triangle

hypotenuse = \sqrt{7^{2} + 4^{2} } = \sqrt{49+16} = \sqrt{65}

sin θ = opposite/ hyp = \frac{7}{\sqrt{65} }

Rationalize, \frac{7}{\sqrt{65} } x \frac{\sqrt{65} }{\sqrt{65} } = \frac{7\sqrt{65} }{65}

But θ is in the third quadrant(180 - 270) and in the third quadrant only tan and cot are positive others are negative.

Therefore, sin θ = - \frac{7\sqrt{65} }{65}

cos   θ  = adj/hyp = \frac{4}{\sqrt{65} }

By rationalizing and knowing that cos  θ  is negative, cos θ  = -\frac{-4\sqrt{65} }{65}

cot θ  = 1/tan θ  = 1/7/4 = 4/7

sec θ  = 1/cos θ  = 1/\frac{4}{\sqrt{65} } = -\frac{-\sqrt{65} }{4}

cosec θ  = 1/sin θ  = 1/\frac{\sqrt{65} }{7} = \frac{-\sqrt{65} }{7}

The ratio of boys to girls in Mr. Baker's social studies class is 2 to 3. If there are 30 total students in the class, how many
astraxan [27]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

1st of all we should let the ration of boys to girls be 2x and 3x.

After that we should make the sum between 2x and3×and the sum of 2numbers is equal to 30

i.e.2x+3x=30

Then ,by solving this eqation we get the value of x=6

After that put the value of x in the number of boys

i.e.

2x=2×6=12

Hence ,the number of boys is 12
