Find the 76th term on the arithmetic sequence 4, 7, 10, 13

Mathematics

sveta [45]3 years ago

7 0

Answer:

229

Step-by-step explanation:

1) the difference of the sequence is:

d=7-4=10-7=13-10=3.

2) the common view of the formula of the n term is:

a(n)=a(1)+d*(n-1), where n - required number of the term (it is 76), d- the calculated difference, a(1) - the 1st term of the given sequence.

3) according to the formula above it is possible to substitute n=76, d=3 and 4, then:

a(76)=4+3*(76-1)=4+225=229.

13. Write an equation for the given function given the amplitude, period, phase shift, and vertical shift.

aev [14]

Answer:

$y=4sin(\frac{\pi}{2} x+\pi)-2$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a periodic function is in the form:

y = Asin(Bx + C) + D

Where A = amplitude, B = 2π / period, D = vertical shift, phase shift = -C / B.

Given that:

amplitude: 4, period 4 phase shift = vertical shift = -2

Hence:

A = amplitude = 4, B = 2π / period = 2π / 4 = π / 2, D = vertical shift = -2.

Phase shift = -C / B

C = -phase shift * B = - * -2 * π / 2 = π.

Therefore substituting gives:

$y=4sin(\frac{\pi}{2} x+\pi)-2$

The triangle described is of the form SSA. Determine if there is no triangle possible, one triangle possible, or two triangles p

kvv77 [185]

Answer: The way to work this problem is to sketch the SSA-described triangle.

Horizontally, mark a ray stemming from point C, going to the right.

From point C, at an angle of elevation of 20 degrees, draw a segment a = 6.3, ending at point B.

Now, from point B, draw a segment perpendicular to the horizontal ray and label it h, for altitude.

Calculate h = 6.3 sin 20o = 2.1547.

Now imagine that, dangling from point B, you have a segment of length c = 9.3; in fact, put a compass with steel point at B and radius 9.3, and draw a big arc. you'll see that it can intersect the horizontal ray only once; in its swing toward point C, due to c > a, there will be no second intersection of the ray (the arc 'overshoots' the ray).

Thus you see that only one solution exists, and the Law of Sines can be used to solve the triangle:

sin 20 / 9.3 = sin A / 6.3 and this leads to A = 13.4 degrees...and B = 180 - 20 - 13.4 = 146o.

I'll let you solve for b (side AC).

A cow can give 5 gallons of milk if it eats 2 pounds of grass. Express x in terms of y, where y is the number of gallons of milk

spayn [35]

Answer:

x = 2.5y

Step-by-step explanation:

If a cow can give 5 gallons of milk after eating 2 pounds of grass.

Let's consider 'x' is the number of pounds of grass it eats and 'y' is the number of gallons of milk the cow gives.

Hence,

5y = 2x

We will simplify it to get what x equal to y by dividing 2 on both side we find,

x = 2.5y

x is equal to 2.5 y

By eating 1 pound of grass cow can give 2.5 gallons of milk.
