3/8.

1 3 3
- x - = -
2 4 8

All you do is multiply across.

3/8. To get this answer you need to multiply the numerators and the denominators. 1 x 3 is equal to 3 and 2 x 4 is qual to 8. Therefore, 3/8

I need to know the lengths of MN, NP, and PM

andrezito [222]

Answer:

MN = 12 units

NP = 16 units

PM = 20 units

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find MN and NP by counting on the graph. To find PM you will need to use the formula a^2 + b^2 = c^2 ( ^ stands for exponent)

MN and NP will be a and b.

Example: 12^2 + 16^2 = c^2

Simplify.

Example:

144 + 256 = c^2

144 + 256 = 400

Then find the square root of 400 which is 20.

To check your work put all of the sides into the formula and it should be true.

Find the sum of the first 20 terms of the arithmetic sequence 4, -4, -12, -20

Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

The sum of the first 20 terms is -1440.

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the sum of the first 20 terms of the arithmetic sequence:

4, -4, -12, -20...

The sum of an arithmetic sequence is given by:

$\displaystyle S=\frac{k}{2}(a+x_k)$

Where k is the number of terms, a is the initial term, and x_k is the last term.

Since we want to find the sum of the first 20 terms, k = 20.

Our initial term a is 4.

Our last term is also the 20th term as we want the sum of the first 20 terms.

To find the 20th term, we can write an explicit formula for our sequence. The explicit formula for an arithmetic sequence is given by:

$x_n=a+d(n-1)$

Where a is the initial term, d is the common difference, and n is the nth term.

Our initial term is 4. From the sequence, we can see that our common difference is -8 since each subsequent term is eight less than the previous term. Therefore:

$x_n=4-8(n-1)$

Then the last or 20th term is:

$x_{20}=4-8(20-1)=4-8(19)=-148$

Therefore, the sum of the first 20 terms are:

$\displaystyle\begin{aligned} S_{20}&=\frac{(20)}{2}\left((4)+(-148))\\&=10(-144) \\&= -1440\end{aligned}$

How many different rectangular prisms can he build if he uses all the cubes

pishuonlain [190]

It depends on how you count them. If you describe them by their dimensions, lowest one first, you can have
1 x 1 x 18
1 x 2 x 9
1 x 3 x 6
2 x 3 x 3

Of course, these dimensions can be put in any order.

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

The test statistic needed to evaluate the claim is t = -1.08.

Step-by-step explanation:

The test statistic is:

$t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}$

In which X is the sample mean, $\mu$ is the expected value of the mean, s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

At a certain university, the average attendance at basketball games has been 3125. The athletic director claims that the attendance is the same as last year.

This means that $\mu = 3125$

Due to the dismal showing of the team this year, the attendance for the first 9 games has averaged only 2915 with a standard deviation of 585.

This means that $n = 9, X = 2915, s = 585$

What is the test statistic needed to evaluate the claim?

$t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}$

$t = \frac{2915 - 3125}{\frac{585}{\sqrt{9}}}$

$t = -1.08$

The test statistic needed to evaluate the claim is t = -1.08.
