Mean = (7+3+10+13+x)/5

(7+3+10+13+x)/5 = 8

(7+3+10+13+x) = 40
x = 40-7-3-10-13 =7

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

d. 140

Step-by-step explanation:

QTR is a 180 degree angle, so we can assume PTR is 140 degrees because (x+28) is (12+28)= 40

Find S12 for geometric series: (-7.5) + 15 + (-30) + ...

kolezko [41]

Answer:

S12 for geometric series: (-7.5) + 15 + (-30) + ... would be: 10237.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the sequence to find the sum up-to 12 terms

$(-7.5) + 15 + (-30) + ...$

As we know that

A geometric sequence has a constant ratio 'r' and is defined by

$a_n=a_1\cdot r^{n-1}$

$\mathrm{Compute\:the\:ratios\:of\:all\:the\:adjacent\:terms}:\quad \:r=\frac{a_{n+1}}{a_n}$

$\frac{15}{\left(-7.5\right)}=-2,\:\quad \frac{\left(-30\right)}{15}=-2$

$\mathrm{The\:ratio\:of\:all\:the\:adjacent\:terms\:is\:the\:same\:and\:equal\:to}$

$r=-2$

$\mathrm{The\:first\:element\:of\:the\:sequence\:is}$

$a_1=\left(-7.5\right)$

$a_n=a_1\cdot r^{n-1}$

$\mathrm{Therefore,\:the\:}n\mathrm{th\:term\:is\:computed\:by}\:$

$a_n=\left(-7.5\right)\left(-2\right)^{n-1}$

$a_n=-\left(-2\right)^{n-1}\cdot \:7.5$

$\mathrm{Geometric\:sequence\:sum\:formula:}$

$a_1\frac{1-r^n}{1-r}$

$\mathrm{Plug\:in\:the\:values:}$

$n=12,\:\spacea_1=\left(-7.5\right),\:\spacer=-2$

$=\left(-7.5\right)\frac{1-\left(-2\right)^{12}}{1-\left(-2\right)}$

$=-7.5\cdot \frac{1-\left(-2\right)^{12}}{1+2}$

$\mathrm{Multiply\:fractions}:\quad \:a\cdot \frac{b}{c}=\frac{a\:\cdot \:b}{c}$

$=-\frac{-30712.5}{1+2}$ ∵ $\left(1-\left(-2\right)^{12}\right)\cdot \:7.5=-30712.5$

$=-\frac{-30712.5}{3}$

$=\frac{30712.5}{3}$

$=10237.5$

Thus, S12 for geometric series: (-7.5) + 15 + (-30) + ... would be: 10237.5
