Answer:

Sally is not right

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the two sequences which have their respective n^{th} terms as following:

Sequence A. 3n - 2

Sequence B. 10 - 2n

As per Sally, there exists only one number which is in both the sequences.

To find:

Whether Sally is correct or not.

Solution:

For Sally to be correct, we need to put the n^{th} terms of the respective sequences as equal and let us verify that.

3n-2=10-2n\\\Rightarrow 3n+2n=10+2\\\Rightarrow 5n=12\\\Rightarrow n = \dfrac{12}{5}

When we talk about n^{th} terms, n here is a whole number not a fractional number.

But as per the statement as stated by Sally n is a fractional number, only then the two sequences can have a number which is in the both sequences.

Therefore, no number can be in both the sequences A and B.

Hence, Sally is not right.

Which formula gives the x-coordinates of the maximum values for y = cos(x)?
REY [17]

Answer with explanation:

The given trigonometric Function is,

     y= cos x

→The maximum value of , cos x , is 1,  at x=0 degree.

Cos x =1

→Cos x = Cos (0)degree,

x=2 k \pi \pm 0

→ for, k= An Integer

x=2 k π→→General formula that  gives the x-coordinates of the maximum values for y = cos(x)

Ordered Pair =(x,y)=(2 k π, 1)

For, any value of , k in the given equation, y will be always 1.

the variable z is directly proportional to x. when x is 6, z has the value 18. what is the value of z when x = 10 the variable z
nikklg [1K]
Z\alpha x
Z=kX
When x=6, z=18,
Finding value of z,
18=k*6
k=3
Z=3X
when x=10,
Z=3*10
Z=30

Part B;
Z\alpha  \frac{1}{x}
z=\frac{a}{x}
Where x is a constant of proportionality,
when x=3, z=2
2=\frac{a}{3}
a=3*2
a=6
When x is 13,
Z=\frac{6}{13}
