Find the sum of the first 42 terms of the following series, to the nearest

balandron [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the sum of the first 42 terms of the following series, to the nearest integer.

2,7,12

Solution

The sum is given by

SUM_n=n/2*(a_1+a_n)

a_n=a_1+(n-1)d

a_1=2, n=42, d=5

The 42nd term is therefore given by

a_42=2+(42-1)5=207

SUM_42=42/2*(2+207)=21*209=4389

The sum of the first 42 terms of the series, therefore, is 4389

HELP ME PLZZZZZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

The answer is 90 winners.

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, we are given three days. The first day has a rate of 13% winning. The second day has a rate of 13% as well. And the third day has a rate of 11%. You can find this simply by dividing the amount of winners by amount of participants. Now, we must find the mean, or average, of these statistics. We will get 12% as the average rate of winners. How did we get this? By simply adding all three (13+13+11) then dividing by three (37/3), which gives us 12% if we round to a whole number. Now, we can take this number and get 12% of 750. How do we do this? Well, 12% is equal to 0.12. So we will multiply 0.12 by 750. This will give us 90. And there you have your answer.

Alternatively, you could add up the total amount of contestants from the three days. You should end up with 1000. Then add up the total amount of winners from the three days. You should get 120. Divide both of these by 4. The winners will now be 40, and the total contestants will be 250. Now multiply both by 3. The amount of contestants will be 750, and the amount of winners will be 90. This way is a bit easier, but does not always work. Do what is best for you!

Hope this helped!

Traveling math word problem - thank you! :)

Anni [7]

We are given:

car and train leave at the same time

average velocity of car = 50 miles/hour

average velocity of train = 70 miles/hour

train arrives 2 hours early

Assuming variables and making equations!

let the time taken by the train = t hours

since the car arrived late, it took more time as compared to the train

time taken by the car = t + 2 hours

since the distance from Pasadena to Sacramento doesn't change, both the vehicles covered the same distance, d

Distance travelled by the car:

d = 50 $\frac{miles}{hour}$ * (t+2) hours [distance = velocity * time]

d = 50(t+2) miles

rewriting in terms of t

$t = \frac{d-100}{50}$

Distance travelled by the train:

d = 70 $\frac{miles}{hour}$ * t hours

d = 70t miles

rewriting in terms of t

$t = \frac{d}{70}$

now we have two expressions for t, both of which are equal because t is just the time taken by the train

Finding the distance:

$t = \frac{d-100}{50}$

$t = \frac{d}{70}$

because t is the same:

$\frac{d-100}{50} = \frac{d}{70}$

$\frac{d-100}{5} = \frac{d}{7}$

7(d - 100) = 5(d)

7d - 700 = 5d

(7d - 5d) - 700 = 0 [subtracting 5d from both sides]

2d = 700 [adding 700 on both sides]

d = 350 miles [dividing both sides by 2]

The distance between Pasadena and Sacramento is 350 miles!
