Answer:

$75.65

Step-by-step explanation:

$79.78 is discounted 12%. 12% of 79.78 is 9.57

79.78 - 9.57 = 70.21

Tax of 7.75% = 0.0775 x 70.21 = 5.44

70.21 + 5.44 = 75.65

How can i prove this property to be true for all values of n, using mathematical induction.
chubhunter [2.5K]

Proof -

So, in the first part we'll verify by taking n = 1.

\implies \: 1  =  {1}^{2}  =  \frac{1(1 + 1)(2 + 1)}{6}

\implies{ \frac{1(2)(3)}{6} }

\implies{ 1}

Therefore, it is true for the first part.

In the second part we will assume that,

\: {  {1}^{2} +  {2}^{2}  +  {3}^{2}  + ..... +  {k}^{2}  =  \frac{k(k + 1)(2k + 1)}{6}  }

and we will prove that,

\sf{ \: { {1}^{2} +  {2}^{2}  +  {3}^{2}  + ..... +  {k}^{2}  + (k + 1)^{2} =  \frac{(k + 1)(k + 1 + 1) \{2(k + 1) + 1\}}{6}}}

\: {{1}^{2} +  {2}^{2}  +  {3}^{2}  + ..... +  {k}^{2}  + (k + 1)^{2}  =  \frac{(k + 1)(k + 2) (2k + 3)}{6}}

{1}^{2} +  {2}^{2}  +  {3}^{2}  + ..... +  {k}^{2}  + (k + 1)^{2} = \frac{k (k + 1) (2k + 1) }{6} +  \frac{(k + 1) ^{2} }{6}

{1}^{2} +  {2}^{2}  +  {3}^{2}  + ..... +  {k}^{2}  + (k + 1)^{2} = \frac{k(k+1)(2k+1)+6(k+1)^ 2 }{6}

{1}^{2} +  {2}^{2}  +  {3}^{2}  + ..... +  {k}^{2}  + (k + 1)^{2} = \frac{(k+1)\{k(2k+1)+6(k+1)\} }{6}

{1}^{2} +  {2}^{2}  +  {3}^{2}  + ..... +  {k}^{2}  + (k + 1)^{2} = \frac{(k+1)(2k^2 +k+6k+6) }{6}

{1}^{2} +  {2}^{2}  +  {3}^{2}  + ..... +  {k}^{2}  + (k + 1)^{2} = \frac{(k+1)(2k^2+7k+6) }{6}

{1}^{2} +  {2}^{2}  +  {3}^{2}  + ..... +  {k}^{2}  + (k + 1)^{2} = \frac{(k+1)(k+2)(2k+3) }{6}

<u>Henceforth, by </u><u>using </u><u>the </u><u>principle </u><u>of </u><u> mathematical induction 1²+2² +3²+....+n² = n(n+1)(2n+1)/ 6 for all positive integers n</u>.

Find the measure of an angle whose complement is five times its measure.
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

The measure of the unknown angle is 15°.

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent this angle by A.  Then the complement of A is 90° - A.

"Angle whose complement is five times its measure" would be expressed as

90° - A = 5A

Solve this for A by adding A to both sides:

90° = 6A.  Then A = 90°/6, or 15°
