Answer:

the answer is 70%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's consider 42 as x% of 60.

x% of 60 = 42 (x% means x/100)

(x/100) * 60 = 42

60x/100 = 42

60x = 42 * 100 = 4200

x = 4200

What is the sum of the first 51 consecutive odd positive integers?

Angelina_Jolie [31]

We call:

$a_{n}$ as the set of the first 51 consecutive odd positive integers, so:

 $a_{n} = \{1, 3, 5, 7, 9...\}$

Where:
$a_{1} = 1$
$a_{2} = 3$
$a_{3} = 5$
$a_{4} = 7$
$a_{5} = 9$
and so on.

In mathematics, a sequence of numbers, such that the difference between two consecutive terms is constant, is called Arithmetic Progression, so:

3-1 = 2
5-3 = 2
7-5 = 2
9-7 = 2 and so on.

Then, the common difference is 2, thus:

 $a_{n} = \{ a_{1} , a_{1} + d, a_{1} + d + d,..., a_{1} + (n-2)d+d\}$

Then:

 $a_{n} = a_{1} + (n-1)d$

So, we need to find the sum of the members of the finite series, which is called arithmetic series:

There is a formula for arithmetic series, namely:

 $S_{k} = ( \frac{a_{1} + a_{k}}{2} ).k$

Therefore, we need to find:
 $a_{k} = a_{51}$

Given that $a_{1} = 1$ , then:

$a_{n} = a_{1} + (n-1)d = 1 + (n-1)(2) = 2n-1$

Thus:
$a_{k} = a_{51} = 2(51)-1 = 101$

Lastly:

$S_{51} = ( \frac{1 + 101}{2} ).51 = 2601$

barxatty [35]

Answer:

Restating the question clearly:

Ben drinks tea at an incredible rate. He drinks 3 1/2 liters of tea every 2/3 of an hour. How much does he drink in one hour?

Answer:

He drinks $5\frac{1}{4}\ liters\$ in 1 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

$Rate\ of\ drinking\ =\ 3\frac{1}{2}\ liters\ per\ \frac{2}{3}\ of\ an\ hour\\$ $\therefore\ 3\frac{1}{2}\ liters\ is\ consumed\ in\ \frac{2}{3} \ hours\\\frac{7}{2} \ liters = \frac{2}{3} \ hours\\cross-multiplying\\7 \times 3\ liters = 2 \times 2\ hours\\21\ liters = 4\ hours\\4\ hours\ = 21\ liters\\\therefore\ for\ 1\ hour\\\frac{4}{4}\ hours = \frac{21}{4}\ liters\\1\ hour = 5.25\ liters\\5.25\ liters = 5\frac{1}{4}\ liters$

The Maine Public Health Department reported that there have been 90 flu cases requiring hospitalization in Portland, ME (populat

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

The prevalence rate of flu cases requiring hospitalization thus far in 2018 is:

= 0.13%

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Population of Portland, ME = 70,000

Number of flu cases requiring hospitalization on February 1st, 2018 = 43

Number of flu cases requiring hospitalization on July 4th, 2018 = 90

The prevalence rate of flu cases requiring hospitalization thus far in 2018 = 90/70,000 * 100 = 0.13%

b) The prevalence rate represents the proportion of the population of Portland, ME, who have the flu at the time that the Maine Public Health Department reported the number of flu cases requiring hospitalization on July 4th, 2018.
