Answer:

20 terms

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given AP with the first two terms:</u>

  • a₁= 27 and a₂=24

<u>Common difference: </u>

  • d= 24-27 = -3

<u>To find </u>

  • n for which Sₙ= -30
<h3>Solution</h3>
  • Sₙ = 1/2*n*(a₁+aₙ) =
  • 1/2n(a₁+a₁+(n-1)d) =
  • 1/2n(27+27+(n-1)(-3))=
  • 1/2n(54 - 3n + 3) =
  • 1/2n(57 - 3n)

<u>Since Sₙ = -30</u>

  • 1/2n(57 - 3n) = -30
  • 57n - 3n² = -60
  • 19n - n²- 20 = 0
  • n² -19 n -20= 0

<u>Solving the quadratic equation we get:</u>

  • n =20

So the sum of 20 terms will add up - 30

Answer:

  • M
  • 90°

Step-by-step explanation:

The segment joining an original point with its rotated image forms a chord of the circle of rotation containing those two points. The center of the circle is the center of rotation.

This means you can find the center of rotation by considering the perpendicular bisectors of the segments joining points with their images. Here, the only proposed center that is anywhere near the perpendicular bisector of DE is point M.

__

Segment AD is perpendicular to corresponding segment FE, so the angle of rotation is 90°. (We don't know which way (CW or CCW) unless we make an assumption about which is the original figure.)

In this assignment, you will explore how the volume is changed when you adjust the height or radius of a cylinder. You will drag
lesantik [10]

The volume of a cylinder changes when you adjust the height or radius as the volume either increases or reduces.

<h3>How to illustrate the volume?</h3>

Let's assume that the height and radius are 14cm and 7cm. The volume will be:

= πr²h

= 3.14 × 7² × 14

= 2154.04cm³

When the radius and height are reduced to 5cm and 9cm, the volume will be:

= πr²h

= 3.14 × 5² × 9

= 706.5cm³

This illustrates that the volume reduces when the height and radius reduces.
