An AP has 15 terms and a common
difference of - 3. Find its first and last terms
if its sum is
b 15
d -120
a 120

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum =n/2{2a+(n-1)d

When sum=15 and d=-3

15=15/2{2a+(15-1)-3}

15=7.5{2a+(14)-3}

15=7.5{2a+(-42)}

15=7.5(2a-42)

15=15a-315

15+315=15a

330=15a

a=330/15

=22

a=22

Last term=a+(n-1)d

=22+(15-1)-3

=22+(14)-3

=22-42

= -20

When sum=120

Sum=n/2{2a+(n-1)d

120=15/2{2a+(15-1}-3

120=7.5{2a+(14)-3}

120=7.5{2a+(-42)}

120=7.5(2a-42)

120=15a-315

120+315=15a

435=15a

a=435/15

=29

a=29

Last term=a+(n-1)d

=29+(15-1)-3

=29+(14)-3

=29-42

= -13

When sum= -120

Sum=n/2{2a+(n-1)d

-120=15/2{2a+(15-1)-3

-120=7.5{2a+(14)-3}

-120=7.5{2a+(-42)}

-120=7.5(2a-42)

-120=15a-315

-120+315=15a

195=15a

a=195/15

a=13

Last term=a+(n-1)d

=13+(15-1)-3

=13-42

= -29

A swimming pool is open for 7\dfrac127 2 1 ​ 7, start fraction, 1, divided by, 2, end fraction hours during a day. The pool keeps one lifeguard on duty at a time, and each lifeguard's shift is 1\dfrac121 2 1 ​ 1, start fraction, 1, divided by, 2, end fraction hours long. How many shifts are there per day?

Answers

Answer:

5 shifts

Step-by-step explanation:

The pool is open for 7 1/2 hours (15/2 hours) per day.

Each lifeguard shift lasts for 1 1/2 hours (3/2 hours).

To get the number of shifts per day, we divide the total hours that the pool is open by the time of each lifeguard shift:

[tex]\frac{15}{2} / \frac{3}{2} \\\\= \frac{15}{2} / \frac{2}{3} \\\\ = 5[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y + 5 = 3x - 18

y = 3x - 23

The solution is A

Answer:

A. y=3x-23

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to get the equation in slope intercept form, or y=mx +b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept. Basically, we need to get y isolated.

y+5=3(x-6)

First, let’s distribute the 3 on the right side. Multiply each term inside the parentheses by the number outside the parentheses (3).

y+5=3*x + 3*-6

y+5=3x-18

5 is being added onto y. We need to perform the inverse operation to get y by itself. The opposite of addition is subtraction. Subtract 5 from both sides

y+5-5=3x-18-5

y= 3x-18-5

y=3x-23

Therefore, the correct answer is A. y=3x-23

Which value of n makes the equation true? -1/2n = -8
A.) -16
B.) -4
C.) 4
D.) 16

Answers

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

When we divide the entire equation by -1/2 to get rid of the coefficient of n we get n = 16.

Answer:

D.) 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for n:

-n/2 = -8

Multiply both sides of -n/2 = -8 by -2:

(-2 (-n))/2 = -2 (-8)

-2×(-1)/2 = (-2 (-1))/2:

(-2 (-1))/2 n = -2 (-8)

(-2)/2 = (2 (-1))/2 = -1:

--1 n = -2 (-8)

(-1)^2 = 1:

n = -2 (-8)

-2 (-8) = 16:

Answer: n = 16

On the unit circle, which of the following angles has the terminal point coordinates (√2/2,-√2/2)

Answers

Answer:

Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

A unit circle means radius of the circle = 1 unit

Let a terminal point on the circle is (x, y) and angle between the point P and x-axis is θ.

Center of the circle is origin (0, 0).

Therefore, ordered pair representing the terminal point will be (OP×Cosθ, OP×Sinθ) = [tex](\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2},-\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2})[/tex]

OP.Cosθ = 1×Cosθ = [tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}[/tex]

Cosθ = [tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}[/tex]

θ = [tex]\frac{\pi }{4}+2\pi n[/tex],  [tex]\frac{7\pi }{4}+2\pi n[/tex] where n = integers

Similarly, OP×Sinθ = 1×Sinθ = -[tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}[/tex]

Sinθ = -[tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }[/tex]

θ = [tex]\frac{5\pi }{4}+2\pi n[/tex],  [tex]\frac{7\pi }{4}+2\pi n[/tex] where n = integer

Common value of θ will be, θ = [tex]\frac{7\pi }{4}[/tex]

Mr Frank purchased 5_1/4 pounds of rocks. He used 3/5 of a pound on one aquarium. He then split the rest of the rocks between his three remaining aquariums. How many rocks will be in one aquarium?​

a hunter observes that the interval between a lightning flash and thunder clap that followed is 15 beat of his pulse. If his pulse rate is 75 per minute and sound in air is 330m/s, how far is the thunderstorm​

Answers

Answer:

3600 m or 3.6 km

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing is to take into account that the pulse rate is equal to 75 per minute, or what is the same as 75 beats per 60 seconds, then we must know how many seconds would be 15 beats:

15 beats * 60 seconds / 75 beats = 12 seconds

Therefore, we know that the velocity is equal to:

v = d / t

We know the time and the speed, therefore:

d = v * t

replacing

d = 300 * 12

d = 3600

is located at 3600 meters or 3.6 km

The owners of a motel in Florida have noticed that in the long run, about 40% of the people who stop and inquire about a room for the night actually rent a room. (a) How many inquires must the owner answer to be 99% sure of renting at least one room? inquiries (b) If 20 separate inquiries are made about rooms, what is the expected number of inquiries that will result in room rentals? inquiries

Answers

Answer:

(a) n = 9 inquiries

The owner must answer 9 inquiries to be 99% sure of renting at least one room.

(b) E(x) = 8 inquiries

Therefore, the expected number of inquiries that will result in room rentals is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given problem can be solved by Binomial distribution.

Let x be the people who stop and inquire about a room for the night actually rent a room.

P(x) = ⁿCₓ pˣ (1 - p)ⁿ⁻ˣ  

Where n is the number of trials, x is the variable of interest and p is the probability of success.  

(a) How many inquires must the owner answer to be 99% sure of renting at least one room?

For the given case, we have p = 0.40 and we want to find n such that

P(x ≥ 1) = 0.99

we know that

P(x ≥ 1) = 1 - P(x < 1)

P(x ≥ 1) = 1 - P(x = 0)

So,

1 - P(x = 0) = 0.99

P(x = 0) = 1 - 0.99

P(x = 0) = 0.01

For x = 0 and p = 0.40

P(x = 0) =(ⁿC₀) (0.40)⁰ (1 - 0.40)ⁿ⁻⁰

0.01 = (1)(1)(0.60)ⁿ

0.01 = 0.60ⁿ

ln(0.01) = ln(0.60ⁿ)

ln(0.01) = n ln(0.60)

n = ln(0.01)/ln(0.60)

n = 9.01

Rounding off to nearest whole number

n = 9 inquiries

Therefore, the owner must answer 9 inquiries to be 99% sure of renting at least one room.

(b) If 20 separate inquiries are made about rooms, what is the expected number of inquiries that will result in room rentals?

The expected number of inquiries is given by

E(x) = n×p

For the given case, we have n = 20 and p = 0.40

E(x) = 20×0.40

E(x) = 8 inquiries

Therefore, the expected number of inquiries that will result in room rentals is 8.

-5(x - 1) = 2x - 7x + 5

Answers

Answer:

This is true! 1x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

So let's rewrite the question again.

-5(x - 1) = 2x - 7x + 5

So we will solve from left to right.

-5(x-1) <- In here, we cannot add a variable to a whole number. So, we simply multiply -5 by x and -1.

-5(x - 1) = -5x+5

2x - 7x + 5 <- Here, we can subtract 2x-7x. They are both variables. But, we cannot add 5 to a variable.

2x - 7x + 5 = -5x+5

Now, here is the equation that we have so far.

-5x+5 = -5x+5

+5x        +5x

----------------------

5=5

-5 -5

0=0

So in here, we can have anything. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 100, anything. So, the answer is:
