\sf\underline{\underline{Question:}}

If sum of first 6 digits of AP is 36 and that of the first 16 terms is 255,then find the sum of first ten terms.

$\sf\underline{\underline{Solution:}}$

  • $\sf\bold\purple{||100||}$

$\space$

$\sf\underline\bold\red{||Step-by-Step||}$

$\sf\bold{Given:}$

  • $\sf\bold{S6=36}$
  • $\sf\bold{S16=255}$

$\space$

$\sf\bold{To\:find:}$

  • $\sf\bold{The \: sum\:of\:the\:first\:ten\:numbers}$

$\space$

$\sf\bold{Formula\:we\:are\:using:}$

$\implies$ $\sf{ Sn=}$ $\sf\dfrac{N}{2}$ $\sf\small{[2a+(n-1)d]}$

$\space$

$\sf\bold{Substituting\:the\:values:}$

→ $\sf{S6=}$ $\sf\dfrac{6}{2}$ $\sf\small{[2a+(6-1)d]}$

→ $\sf{36 = 3[2a+(6-1)d]}$

→$\sf{12=[2a+5d]}$ $\sf\bold\purple{(First \: equation)}$

$\space$

$\sf\bold{Again,Substituting \: the\:values:}$

→ $\sf{S16}$ $\sf\dfrac{16}{2}$ $\sf\small{[2a+(16-1)d]}$

→ $\sf{255=8[2a + (16-1)d]}$

:: $\sf\dfrac{255}{8}$ $\sf\small{=31.89=32}$

→ $\sf{32=[2a+15d]}$ $\sf\bold\purple{(Second\:equation)}$

$\space$

$\sf\bold{Now,Solve \: equation \: 1 \:and \:2:}$

→ $\sf{10=20}$

→ $\sf{d=}$ $\sf\dfrac{20}{10}$ $\sf{=2}$

$\space$

$\sf\bold{Putting \: d=2\: in \:equation - 1:}$

→ $\sf{12=2a+5\times 2}$

→ $\sf{a = 1}$

$\space$

$\sf\bold{All\:of\:the\:above\:eq\: In \: S10\:formula:}$

$\mapsto$ $\sf{S10=}$ $\sf\dfrac{10}{2}$ $\sf\small{[2\times1+(10-1)d]}$

$\mapsto$ $\sf{5(2\times1+9\times2)}$

$\mapsto$ $\sf\bold\purple{5(2+18)=100}$

$\space$

$\sf\small\red{||Hence , the \: sum\: of \: the \: first\:10\: terms\: is\:100||}$

Answer:

100

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the sum of first n terms of an AP,

Sn = n/2 [2a+(n−1)d]

Given,

36= 6/2 [2a+(6−1)d]

12=2a+5d ---------(1)

256= 16/2 [2a+(16−1)d]

32=2a+15d ---------(2)

Subtracting, (1) from (2)

32−12=2a+15d−(2a+5d)

20=10d ⟹d=2

Substituting for d in (1),

12=2a+5(2)=2(a+5)

6=a+5 ⟹a=1

∴ The sum of first 10 terms of an AP,

S10 = 10/2 [2(1)+(10−1)2]

S10 =5[2+18]

S10 =100

This is the sum of the first 10 terms.

Hope it will help.

prohojiy [21]
He answer to this question is:A. The length is 8 inches, and the width is 5 inches.
The scale factor can be found in the question, "the art team made a scale drawing of the top of the box using a scale of 3 inches to 1 inch". This means the scale drawing should be divided by a scale factor of 3:1 (simplified into 3). 
The scale factor is then divided with the components provided (24 inches in length, 15 inches in width).
(24/3) = 8 inches(15/3) = 5 inches
Your answer is length = 8 inches, width = 5 inches.

Mrs. Bonilla is a saleswoman at a furniture store. Her commission on rugs is 10% and her commission on furniture is 15%. Her goa
lara31 [8.8K]
<span>so here is how you can answer this: 

Your commission must be equal to the sum of the 10% of the value of the rug and the 15% of the value of the furniture and equate this to the value of your commission. Translate this to a mathematical equation, you would get, 

Commission = (10%) (value of rugs) + (15%) (value of furniture).
substituting the known values, 
 
5000 =.1 * x + .15 * 12500.

Now it's a matter of finding for x. You should get, 

 x = $31,250.</span>

Looking at the top of tower A and base of tower B from points C and D, we find that ∠ACD = 60°, ∠ADC = 75° and ∠ADB = 30°. Let t
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

\text{Exact: }AB=25\sqrt{6},\\\text{Rounded: }AB\approx 61.24

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Law of Sines to find segment AD, which happens to be a leg of \triangle ACD and the hypotenuse of \triangle ADB.

The Law of Sines states that the ratio of any angle of a triangle and its opposite side is maintained through the triangle:

\frac{a}{\sin \alpha}=\frac{b}{\sin \beta}=\frac{c}{\sin \gamma}

Since we're given the length of CD, we want to find the measure of the angle opposite to CD, which is \angle CAD. The sum of the interior angles in a triangle is equal to 180 degrees. Thus, we have:

\angle CAD+\angle ACD+\angle CDA=180^{\circ},\\\angle CAD+60^{\circ}+75^{\circ}=180^{\circ},\\\angle CAD=180^{\circ}-75^{\circ}-60^{\circ},\\\angle CAD=45^{\circ}

Now use this value in the Law of Sines to find AD:

\frac{AD}{\sin 60^{\circ}}=\frac{100}{\sin 45^{\circ}},\\\\AD=\sin 60^{\circ}\cdot \frac{100}{\sin 45^{\circ}}

Recall that \sin 45^{\circ}=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} and \sin 60^{\circ}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}:

AD=\frac{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\cdot 100}{\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}},\\\\AD=\frac{50\sqrt{3}}{\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}},\\\\AD=50\sqrt{3}\cdot \frac{2}{\sqrt{2}},\\\\AD=\frac{100\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{2}}\cdot\frac{ \sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}}=\frac{100\sqrt{6}}{2}={50\sqrt{6}}

Now that we have the length of AD, we can find the length of AB. The right triangle \triangle ADB is a 30-60-90 triangle. In all 30-60-90 triangles, the side lengths are in the ratio x:x\sqrt{3}:2x, where x is the side opposite to the 30 degree angle and 2x is the length of the hypotenuse.

Since AD is the hypotenuse, it must represent 2x in this ratio and since AB is the side opposite to the 30 degree angle, it must represent x in this ratio (Derive from basic trig for a right triangle and \sin 30^{\circ}=\frac{1}{2}).

Therefore, AB must be exactly half of AD:

AB=\frac{1}{2}AD,\\AB=\frac{1}{2}\cdot 50\sqrt{6},\\AB=\frac{50\sqrt{6}}{2}=\boxed{25\sqrt{6}}\approx 61.24
