Answer:

-7.5 - (8.5 + 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

We just add together the values of how much it dropped at different parts of the day, and subtract them from what we started with. The parenthesis are important cause we want to know what the total temperature drop for the day was before we subtract it to get the actual temperature we end up with.

Answer:

T= - 5°C - 8.5°C = -13.5°C

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial temperature in the late afternoon was -7.5°C.

It dropped 5 degrees by early evening and then dropped 8.5 degrees by midnight.

Change in temperature (in evening) = -5°C

Change in temperature (in midnight) = -8.5°C

Here negative sign represents the decrease in the temperature.

Let T be the total change in the temperature.

So, total change in the temperature is

T = - 5°C - 8.5°C

T = 13.5°C

Therefore, the required equation is T = - 5°C - 8.5°C = 13.5°C.

You want to know the type of music listened to by 15- to 20-year-olds. Which of the following surveys is biased?

Liula [17]

Arguably, all of them are at least somewhat biased, but the most biased would be surveying people 15 to 20 years old leaving a concert because being at a concert would be highly correlated with liking the type of music played at that concert.

17 Answer: 205

Step-by-step explanation:

$\{1\dfrac{2}{3}+1\dfrac{5}{6}+2+...+8\dfrac{1}{3}\}\implies a_1=1\dfrac{2}{3},\ d=\dfrac{1}{6}\\\\\\a_n=a_1+d(n-1)\qquad solve\ for\ n\\\\8\dfrac{1}{3}=1\dfrac{2}{3}+\dfrac{1}{6}(n-1)\\\\\\\dfrac{25}{3}=\dfrac{5}{3}+\dfrac{1}{6}n-\dfrac{1}{6}\\\\\\\dfrac{50}{6}=\dfrac{10}{6}+\dfrac{1}{6}n-\dfrac{1}{6}\\\\\\\dfrac{41}{6}=\dfrac{1}{6}n\\\\\\\dfrac{41}{6}\cdot 6=n\\\\41=n$

$\text{Now use the sum formula:}\\\\S_n=\dfrac{a_1+a_n}{2}\cdot n\\\\\\S_{41}=\dfrac{1\dfrac{2}{3}+8\dfrac{1}{3}}{2}\cdot 41\\\\\\.\quad =\dfrac{10}{2}\cdot 41\\\\\\.\quad =5\cdot 41\\\\.\quad =\large\boxed{205}$

18 Answer: 1968

Step-by-step explanation:

$a_1=-6,\ d=2,\ n=48, \quad \text{solve for }a_{48}\\\\a_{n}=a_1+d(n-1)\\\\a_{48}=-6+2(48-1)\\\\.\quad =-6+2(47)\\\\.\quad =-6+94\\\\.\quad =88$

$\text{Now use the sum formula:}\\\\S_n=\dfrac{a_1+a_n}{2}\cdot n\\\\\\S_{48}=\dfrac{-6+88}{2}\cdot 48\\\\\\.\quad =\dfrac{82}{2}\cdot 48\\\\\\.\quad =41\cdot 48\\\\.\quad =\large\boxed{1968}$

19 Answer: -116

Step-by-step explanation:

$\{3, -2, -7, ...\}\\a_1=3,\ d=-5,\ n=8, \quad \text{solve for }a_{8}\\\\a_{n}=a_1+d(n-1)\\\\a_{8}=3-5(8-1)\\\\.\quad =3-5(7)\\\\.\quad =3-35\\\\.\quad =-32\\\\\text{Now use the sum formula:}\\\\S_8=\dfrac{a_1+a_8}{2}\cdot 8\\\\\\S_{8}=\dfrac{3-32}{2}\cdot 8\\\\\\.\quad =\dfrac{-29}{2}\cdot 8\\\\\\.\quad =-29\cdot 4\\\\.\quad =\large\boxed{-116}$
