Explain the sum of geometric progression​

Answers

Answer 1
A geometric progression is a sequence in which any element after the first is obtained by multiplying the preceding element by a constant called the common ratio which is denoted by r.

For example, the sequence 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32… is a geometric sequence with a common ratio of r = 2.

When 1 is multiplied by 2 it results in 2. When 2 is multiplied by 2 it gives 4. Likewise, when 4 is multiplied by 2 we get 8 and so on.

Use the two highlighted points to find the
equation of a trend line in slope-intercept
form.

Answers

Answer: y=(4/3)x+2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is expressed as y=mx+b

First, find the slope (m):

m= rise/run or vertical/horizontal or y/x (found between the highlighted points)

m = 4/3

Second, find b:

Use one of the highlighted points for (x, y)

2=4/3(1)+b

6/3=4/3+b

2/3=b

b=2/3

Plug it into the equation:

You get y=(4/3)x+2/3 :)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression: [tex]-36\dfrac{4}{9}-(-10\dfrac{2}{9})-(18\dfrac{2}{9})[/tex]

Here, [tex]36\dfrac{4}{9}=\dfrac{36\times9+4}{9}=\dfrac{328}{9}[/tex]

josue bought 7 pounds of pretzels at a local wholesaler for $16.80. his friend ricardo bought 5 pounds of pretzels at the supermarket for $12.75. Ricardo thinks he got the better deal because $12.75 is less than $16.80. Is Ricardo's reasoning correct? Explain why or why not.

Answers

(josue) 16.8/7 = $2.4 per lb
(ricardo) 12.75/5 = $2.55 per lb

ricardo is incorrect because if you solve for the price per pound ( price/amount ), josue paid $2.40 for each pound of pretzels while ricardo paid $2.55 per pound. ricardo ended up paying more.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\theta[/tex] =2mπ + π/3 for m ∈ Z.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation [tex]2sin\theta - \sqrt{3} = 0[/tex], we are to find all the values of [tex]\theta[/tex] that satisfies the equation.

[tex]2sin\theta - \sqrt{3} = 0\\\\2sin\theta = \sqrt{3} \\\\sin\theta = \sqrt{3}/2 \\\\\theta = sin{-1} \sqrt{3}/2 \\\\\theta = 60^0[/tex]

General solution for sin[tex]\theta[/tex] is [tex]\theta[/tex] = nπ + (-1)ⁿ ∝, where n ∈ Z.

If n is an even number say 2m, then [tex]\theta[/tex] = (2m)π + ∝ where ∝ = 60° = π/3

Hence, the general solution to the equation will be [tex]\theta[/tex] = 2mπ + π/3 for m ∈ Z.

A multiple regression model involves 5 independent variables and a sample of 10 data points. If we want to test the validity of the model at the 5% significance level, the critical value is:

Answers

Answer:

The critical value is 6.26.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is provided that there are 5 independent variables involved in a multiple regression model and the sample consist of 10 data points.

The critical value of F to test the significance of the model is:

[tex]\text{Critical Value}=F_{\alpha, (k, n-k-1)}[/tex]

Here,

k = number of independent variables

n = number of observations.

Then the critical value is:

[tex]\text{Critical Value}=F_{\alpha, (k, n-k-1)}[/tex]

                      [tex]=F_{\alpha, (5, 10-5-1)}\\=F_{0.05,(5, 4)}\\=6.2561\\\approx 6.26[/tex]

*Use a F-table.

Thus, the critical value is 6.26.

Given the equations, which of the following represents z1 * z2? Using the same values in #6, which of the following represents z1/z2 in standard form?

The selected answers are incorrect.

Answers

Answer:

First Attachment : Option A,

Second Attachment : Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that,

z₁ = [tex]3(\cos ((\pi )/(6))+i\sin ((\pi )/(6)))[/tex] and z₂ = [tex]4(\cos ((\pi )/(3))+i\sin ((\pi )/(3)))[/tex]

Therefore if we want to determine z₁( z₂ ), we would have to find the trigonometric form of the following expression,

[tex]3(\cos ((\pi )/(6))+i\sin ((\pi )/(6)))*4(\cos ((\pi )/(3))+i\sin ((\pi )/(3)))[/tex]

( Combine expressions )

= [tex]12(\cos ( \pi /6+\pi / 3 ) + i\sin (\pi /6 +\pi / 3 )[/tex]

( Let's now add [tex]\pi / 6 + \pi / 3[/tex], further simplifying this expression )

[tex]\frac{\pi }{6}+\frac{\pi }{3} = \frac{\pi }{6}+\frac{\pi 2}{6} = \frac{\pi +\pi 2}{6} = \frac{3\pi }{6} = \pi / 2[/tex]

( Substitute )

[tex]12(\cos ( \pi /2 ) + i\sin ( \pi /2 ) )[/tex]

And therefore the correct solution would be option a, for the first attachment.

______________________________________________

For this second attachment, we would have to solve for the following expression,

[tex]\frac{3\left(\cos \left(\frac{\pi \:}{6}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{\pi \:}{6}\right)\right)}{4\left(\cos \left(\frac{\pi \:}{3}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{\pi \:}{3}\right)\right)}[/tex]

From which we know that cos(π/6) = √3 / 2, sin(π/6) = 1 / 2, cos(π/3) = 1 / 2, and sin(π/3) = √3 / 2. Therefore,

[tex]\:\frac{3\left(\cos \left(\frac{\pi }{6}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{\pi }{6}\right)\right)}{4\left(\cos \left(\frac{\pi }{3}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{\pi }{3}\right)\right)}:\quad \frac{3\sqrt{3}}{8}-i\frac{3}{8}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{3\sqrt{3}}{8}-i\frac{3}{8} = \frac{3\sqrt{3}}{8}-\frac{3}{8}i[/tex]

Our solution for the second attachment will be option c.

What number when multiplied by itself is 11 greater than the preceding number when it is multiplied by itself

Answers

Answer: 5 and 6

Step-by-step explanation:

X^2 - 11 = (X-1)^2

X^2 - 11 = X^2-2X+1

X^2 - X^2 + 2X = 11+1

2X = 12

X = 6

The preceding number is 5

(6)(6)=36 and (5)(5)=25

36-25=11

The number required is 6

Let the number required bee x

If the number is multiplied by itself, it becomes x²

If the result is 11 greater than the preceding number when it is multiplied by itself is expressed as:

x² - 11  = (x - 1)²

x² - 11 = x² - 2x + 1

2x = 11 + 1

2x = 12

x = 6

Hence the number required is 6

sales exceed 7700 units at any time during the month.

O May through September

O March through August

O March through September

O April through August

O August through April

Answers

Answer:

March through August

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, in order to solve this problem, we must start by building an equation to solve. The original equation was:

[tex]S=56.9-40.7cos (\frac{\pi}{6}t)[/tex]

and we need to figure out the months when the sales exceed 7700 units. Since the equation is given in hundreds of units, we need to divide those 7700 units into one hundred to get 77 hundred units. So we can go ahead and substitute that value in the equation:

[tex]77=56.9-40.7cos (\frac{\pi}{6}t)[/tex]

if you wish you can rewrite the equation so the variable is on the left side of it but it's up to you. So you get:

[tex]56.9-40.7cos (\frac{\pi}{6}t)=77[/tex]

and now we solve for t

[tex]-40.7cos (\frac{\pi}{6}t)=77-56.9[/tex]

[tex]-40.7cos (\frac{\pi}{6}t)=20.1[/tex]

[tex]cos (\frac{\pi}{6}t)=\frac{20.1}{-40.7}[/tex]

[tex]cos (\frac{\pi}{6}t)=-0.4938[/tex]

[tex]\frac{\pi}{6}t=cos^{-1}(-0.4938)[/tex]

[tex]\frac{\pi}{6}t=2.087[/tex]

[tex]t=\frac{2.087(6)}{\pi}[/tex]

[tex]t=3.98 months[/tex]

but there is a second answer to this problem. Notice that the function cos can be 2.87 at [tex]2\pi-2.087=4.1962 rad[/tex] as well, so we repeat the process:

[tex]\frac{\pi}{6}t=4.1962[/tex]

[tex]t=\frac{4.1962(6)}{\pi}[/tex]

[tex]t=8.014 months[/tex]

So now we need to determine on which period of times the number of items sold exceed 77 hundred units so we build different intervals for us to test:

(1,3.98)  (3.98,8.014) and (8,014, 13)

and find a test value for each of the intervals and test it.

(1,3.98) t=2

[tex]S=56.9-40.7cos (\frac{\pi}{6}(2))[/tex]

S=36.55

this is less than 77 so this is not our answer.

(3.98,8.014) t=5

[tex]S=56.9-40.7cos (\frac{\pi}{6}(5))[/tex]

S=92.15

this is more than 77 so this is our answer.

(8.014,13) t=10

[tex]S=56.9-40.7cos (\frac{\pi}{6}(10))[/tex]

S=36.55

this is less than 77 so this is not our answer.

so, since our answer is the interval (3.98,8.014)

this means that between the months of march and august we will be sellin more than 7700 units.

What are permutations?

The different arrangements which can be made out of a given number of objects by taking out some or all at a time are called permutations.

The number of different permutations of n objects with m₁ repeated items, m₂ repeated items,...,mₙ repeated items can be calculated as;

m!/(m₁!)(m₂!)...(mₙ!)

Here, the letter of the word 'MILLION' is a total of 7 letters.

So, the number of possible arrangements will be

(7!)/ (2!times 2!)

= 1260

Therefore the number of distinguishable ways the letters of the following word can be arranged 'MILLION' is 1260.

Step-by-step explanation:

-4x + 60 < 72

First using the order of operations, subtract 60 from both sides.

-4x + 60 - 60 < 72 - 60

- 4x < 12

Next we want to divide -4 from both sides to isolate the variable.

-4x/-4 < 12/-4

x > -3

When you divide a negative number, always make sure the change the sign.

Solve the next equation, 14x + 11 < -31, the same way we solved the last.

14x + 11 < -31

Subtract 11 from both sides.

14x + 11 - 11 < -31 -11

14x < -42

Divide 14 from both sides.

14x/14 < -42/14
