Answer:

234

Step-by-step explanation:

So what we know is that

5x+9x= students

This equation is saying that for every 5 boys there are 9 girls

we can then plug in 364 for the number of students and add like terms

This means that 14x=364

this means that x=26

This means that there are 26 sets of 5 boys and 9 girls

this means that there are

130 boys

234 girls

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

FV= $34,222.33

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>First, we need to calculate the weekly interest rate:</u>

Weekly interest rate= 0.0289/52= 0.00056

<u>To calculate the future value (FV), we need to use the following formula:</u>

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= weekly deposit

n= 15*52= 780

A= $35

FV= {35*[(1.00056^780) - 1]} / 0.00056

FV= $34,222.33

Find the sum of the positive integers less than 200 which are not multiples of 4 and 7​
taurus [48]

Answer:

12942 is the sum of positive integers between 1 (inclusive) and 199 (inclusive) that are not multiples of 4 and not multiples 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

For an arithmetic series with:

  • a_1 as the first term,
  • a_n as the last term, and
  • d as the common difference,

there would be \displaystyle \left(\frac{a_n - a_1}{d} + 1\right) terms, where as the sum would be \displaystyle \frac{1}{2}\, \displaystyle \underbrace{\left(\frac{a_n - a_1}{d} + 1\right)}_\text{number of terms}\, (a_1 + a_n).

Positive integers between 1 (inclusive) and 199 (inclusive) include:

1,\, 2,\, \dots,\, 199.

The common difference of this arithmetic series is 1. There would be (199 - 1) + 1 = 199 terms. The sum of these integers would thus be:

\begin{aligned}\frac{1}{2}\times ((199 - 1) + 1) \times (1 + 199) = 19900 \end{aligned}.

Similarly, positive integers between 1 (inclusive) and 199 (inclusive) that are multiples of 4 include:

4,\, 8,\, \dots,\, 196.

The common difference of this arithmetic series is 4. There would be (196 - 4) / 4 + 1 = 49 terms. The sum of these integers would thus be:

\begin{aligned}\frac{1}{2}\times 49 \times (4 + 196) = 4900 \end{aligned}

Positive integers between 1 (inclusive) and 199 (inclusive) that are multiples of 7 include:

7,\, 14,\, \dots,\, 196.

The common difference of this arithmetic series is 7. There would be (196 - 7) / 7 + 1 = 28 terms. The sum of these integers would thus be:

\begin{aligned}\frac{1}{2}\times 28 \times (7 + 196) = 2842 \end{aligned}

Positive integers between 1 (inclusive) and 199 (inclusive) that are multiples of 28 (integers that are both multiples of 4 and multiples of 7) include:

28,\, 56,\, \dots,\, 196.

The common difference of this arithmetic series is 28. There would be (196 - 28) / 28 + 1 = 7 terms. The sum of these integers would thus be:

\begin{aligned}\frac{1}{2}\times 7 \times (28 + 196) = 784 \end{aligned}.

The requested sum will be equal to:

  • the sum of all integers from 1 to 199,
  • minus the sum of all integer multiples of 4 between 1\! and 199\!, and the sum integer multiples of 7 between 1 and 199,
  • plus the sum of all integer multiples of 28 between 1 and 199- these numbers were subtracted twice in the previous step and should be added back to the sum once.

That is:

19900 - 4900 - 2842 + 784 = 12942.
