Answer: 150

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve arithmetic progression, the nth term is calculated using the formula = a + (n - 1)d

From the question,

First term = a = 4

12th term = 31.5

We need to get the common difference which will be:

Since 12th term = 31.5

a + (n - 1)d = 31.5

a + (12 - 1)d = 31.5

a + 11d = 31.5

Recall that a = 4

4 + 11d = 31.5.

11d = 31.5 - 4

11d = 27.5

d = 27.5 / 11

d = 2.5

Since last term is 376.5, the number of terms in it will be calculated as:

a + (n - 1)d = 376.5

4 + (n - 1)2.5 = 376.5

4 + 2.5n - 2.5 = 376.5

2.5n = 376.5 - 4 + 2.5

2.5n = 375

n = 375 / 2.5

n = 150

The number of terms in the series is 150.

Answer:

6.3 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The ladder lying on the wall with an elevation of 39° forms a right angled triangle.

Hypotenuse = length of ladder = 10 ft

Opposite = x = ?

θ = 39°

Use trigonometric ratio formula to find, x, which is how far the ladder goes up the wall.

The trigonometric ratio formula to use is:

sin(θ) = opposite/hypotenuse

Sin(39) = x/10

Multiply both sides by 10

10*sin(39) = x

x = 10*sin(39)

x = 6.29 ≈ 6.3 ft (to nearest tenth)

Bob's average golf score at his local course is 93.6 from a random sample of 34 rounds of golf. Assume that the population stand
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

a. (92.4, 94.8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Mean (m) = 93.6

Standard deviation (σ) = 4.2

Sample size (n) = 34

α = 90%

Confidence interval around sample mean :

Mean ± Zstatistic * s/√n

Z0.90 = 1.645 (Z probability calculator)

s / √n = 4.2 / √34 = 0.7202940

Lower limit = 93.6 - (1.645 * 0.7202940) = 92.41511637 = 92.4

Upper limit = 93.6 + (1.645 * 0.7202940) = 94.78488363 = 94.8
