Answer:

The general rule for the nth term of this sequence will be:

a_n=3na+9a

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the sequence

12a, 15a, 18a, 21a, 24a,...

An arithmetic sequence has a constant difference 'd' and is defined by  

a_n=a_1+\left(n-1\right)d

Here,

a₁ = 12a

computing the differences of all the adjacent terms

d = 15a-12a = 3a, d = 18a-15a=3a, d=21a-18a=3a, d=24a-21a=3a

using the nth term formula

a_n=a_1+\left(n-1\right)d

substituting a₁ = 12a, d = 3a

a_n=12a+\left(n-1\right)3a

     =12a+3na-3a

     =3na+9a

Therefore, the general rule for the nth term of this sequence will be:

a_n=3na+9a

Find the approximate volume of the figure below, composed of a cone, a cylinder, and a hemisphere. If necessary, round your answ
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

Volume of the solid = 480.42m³

Step-by-step explanation:

To sov this question, we'll have to break the solid into different shapes of solid to solve it easily.

Volume of a cylinder = πr²h

volume of a hemisphere = 4/3πr³

Volume of a cone = ⅓πr²h

π = 3.14

r = 3m

h(cylinder) = 11m

Slant height of cone = 3√(2)

Height of cone = ?

To find height of cone, we can use pythagorean theorem

a² = b² + c²

[ 3√(2)]² = 3² + c²

9*2 = 9 + c²

C² = 18 - 9

C = 9m

Height of the cone = 9m

Volume of a cylinder = πr²h

V = 3.14 * 3² * 11

V = 310.86m³

Volume of the cylnder = 310.86m³

Volume of the hemisphere = 4/3πr³

V = 3.14 * 3³

V = 84.78m³

Volume of the hemisphere = 84.78m³

Volume of the cone = ⅓πr²h

V = ⅓ * 3.14 * 3² * 9

V = 84.78

Volume of the cone = 84.78m³

Volume of the solid = volume of cone + volume of hemisphere + volume of cylinder

Volume of the solid = 84.78 + 84.78 + 310.86

Volume = 480.42m³

Complete the identity
spin [16.1K]

Answer: cos(\pi-x)=-cos(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to apply the following identity:

cos(A - B) = cos A*cos B + sinA*sin B

Then, applying this, you know that for cos(\pi-x):

cos(\pi-x)=cos(\pi)*cos(x)+sin(\pi)*sin(x)

We need to remember that:

cos(\pi)=-1 and sin(\pi)=0

Therefore, we need to substitute these values into cos(\pi-x)=cos(\pi)*cos(x)+sin(\pi)*sin(x).

Then, you get:

cos(\pi-x)=(-1)*cos(x)+0*sin(x)

cos(\pi-x)=-1cos(x)+0

cos(\pi-x)=-cos(x)
