Given the sequence in the table below, determine the sigma notation of the sum for term 4 through term 15. N an 1 4 2 −12 3 36 t

Rzqust [24]

By applying basic property of Geometric progression we can say that sum of 15 terms of a sequence whose first three terms are 5, -10 and 2 is $\sum_{n=4}^{15} 5(-2)^{n-1}$$$

<h3>What is sequence ?</h3>

Sequence is collection of numbers with some pattern .

Given sequence

$a_{1}=5\\\\a_{2}=-10\\\\\\a_{3}=20$

We can see that

$\frac{a_1}{a_2}=\frac{-10}{5}=-2\\$

and

$\frac{a_2}{a_3}=\frac{20}{-10}=-2\\$

Hence we can say that given sequence is Geometric progression whose first term is 5 and common ratio is -2

Now $n^{th}$ term of this Geometric progression can be written as

$T_{n}= 5\times(-2)^{n-1}$

So summation of 15 terms can be written as

$\sum_{n=4}^{15} T_{n}\\\\$\\$\sum_{n=4}^{15} 5(-2)^{n-1}$$$

By applying basic property of Geometric progression we can say that sum of 15 terms of a sequence whose first three terms are 5, -10 and 2 is $\sum_{n=4}^{15} 5(-2)^{n-1}$$$

I am guessing you have to rotate it 180 degrees and see if it fits in the area in which it’s supposed to fit it’s there another part to the question?

Johnny says that rolling a number cube twice and getting a 6 both times is an example of dependent events because getting a 6 on

hjlf

Answer:

This is not correct

Step-by-step explanation:

He could have rolled a 6 on the second roll without rolling a 6 on the first roll, the first roll had ZERO effect on the second one to be able to change what he would roll

Imagina que vas a un partido de béisbol con tus amigos, y tienen hambre. El costo de dos botellas de agua y 3 bolsas de palomita

Rudik [331]

Answer:

El costo de una botella de agua es de $10

El costo de una bolsa de palomitas de maíz es de $15.

Step-by-step explanation:

Los parámetros dados son;

El costo de dos botellas de agua y 3 bolsas de palomitas de maíz = $65

El costo de 4 botellas de agua y 1 bolsa de palomitas de maíz = $55

Donde x = El costo de una botella de agua ey = El costo de una bolsa de palomitas de maíz, tenemos;

2 × x + 3 × y = 65 ... (1)

4 × x + y = 55 ... (2)

Haciendo y el tema de ambas ecuaciones, tenemos;

Para la ecuación (1), tenemos;

2 · x + 3 · y = 65

3 · y = 65 - 2 · x

y = 65/3 - 2/3 · x

Para la ecuación (2), tenemos;

4 · x + y = 55

y = 55 - 4 · x

Igualando ambos valores de y para encontrar la solución común, tenemos;

65/3 - 2/3 · x = 55 - 4 · x

4 · x - 2/3 · x = 55 - 65/3

10 · x / 3 = 100/3

∴ 10 · x = 100

x = 100/10 = 10

x = 10

El costo de una botella de agua = x = $10

y = 55 - 4 · x = 55 - 4 × 10 = 55 - 40 = 15

y = 15

El costo de una bolsa de palomitas de maíz = y = $15
