This sequence starts with an initial set; let’s call it s1. This set contains 20 cans, and every set following would have two less cans than the last set. So,

s1=20
s2=s1-2=18
s3=s2-2=16
•
•
•
s9=s8-2=4

How many cans in the display represents the value of each set added together, so we can denote this as

s1+s2+s3+...+s9

and replacing with values:

20+18+16+...+4 = 108

The number of cans in the display equals 108.

(The set notation seems weird, but by practicing this application now, the Calculus version will seem easier.)

Find the area of the circle.<br> Use 3.14 for it.<br> d = 6 ft<br> A = [?] ft2<br> A=Tr2
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

28.26  ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a circle is calculated using the following formula :

πr^2 (r: radius, and π is given as3.14)

the diameter is given as 6 and radius is equal to half of it so :

(3.14)*3^2 = 28.26  ft^2

A certain star is 2.4 x 102 light years from the Earth. One light year is about 5.9 x 1012 miles. How far
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

2.5 x 10^{15} miles

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that 1 light year ≈ 5.9 x 10^{12} miles so:

  • 4.3 x 10² light year · <u>5.9 x </u>10^{12}<u> miles </u>                                                                                                
  •                                    1 light year

Multiply 4.3 an 5.9 and round to 2 significant digits then add the exponents:

                                              ≈25 x 10^{14}

This is not the scientific notation since the number is not between 0 and 10 so we move the decimal point by 1 place to the left. We then add 1 to the exponent to obtain the final answer:

                                                  ≈ 2.5 x 10^{15} miles
