Let x be a constant. The 5th term of an arithmetic sequence is a5=16x+11. The 9th term of the sequence is a9=28x+19. Find the first term of the sequence. Write your answer in simplest form

Answers

Answer 1

19

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The first term of the arithmetic sequence is  4x+3.

What is arithmetic sequence?

An ordered group of numbers with a shared difference between each successive term is known as an arithmetic sequence.

The formula to find the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is,

aₙ= a+(n-1)d

Where a is the 1st term and d is the common difference.

Let the first term of sequence is a and the common difference is d.

Given that,

The 5th term of the arithmetic sequence = 16x+11,

⇒ a+4d= 16x+11      (1)

And the 9th term of the arithmetic sequence = 28x+19,

⇒ a+8d= 28x+19    (2)

To find the first term of the sequence, multiply equation (1) with 2 and subtract equation (2) from it.

(2a+8d)-(a+8d) = (32x+22) - (28x+19)

a = 4x+3

The first term of the arithmetic sequence is  4x+3.

Answers

Answer:

1_11/20 pounds, or 1.55 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since at the beginning, he had 5 1/4 pounds and used 3/5, we subtract the amount of pounds. We are then left with 93/20 pounds, which he then splits among 3 containers. Dividing by three, we then get 31/20 pounds in one aquarium, or 1 11/20 pounds in each aquarium or 1.55 pounds.

The total length of 2 pieces of rope is
108cm. If one piece is 18cm shorter, what is
the length of the longer piece?​

Answers

Answer:

63 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

piece 1: x

piece 2: x - 18

First you would subtract 2x - 18 = 108

Second you would add 108 + 18 = 2x

Third you would divide 126 divided by 2x = 63

So that would mean x = 63

Answer:

63cm

Step-by-step explanation:

2 pieces of rope, and one is shorter by 18cm.

piece 1: x

piece 2: x-18

Add the equations together, combine both pieces

2x-18

2x-18 = 108

108+18 = 2x

126 = 2x

x = 63

Notice that in the table, the 3 appears twice and it corresponds to a 5 in one case and it corresponds to a 6 in another case.

The figure shows the dimensions of a wall having a door and window of a room. Write an algebraic expression for the area of the wall to be painted. PLEASE FAST

Answers

Answer:

Area of the wall to be painted = (11x² + 12x) square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure that should be attached to this question is missing. The figure was obtained and is attached to this solution provided.

From the image attached, it is given that the dimension of the rectangular wall to be painted is (4x+3) by (4x), the dimensions of the window is (2x) by (x) and the dimensions of the door is (x) by (3x).

Since, the window space and the door space cannot be painted along with the wall, the Area of the rectangular wall that will be painted will be given by the expression

(Total Area of the rectangular wall) - [(Area of window space) + (Area of door space)]

Area of a rectangular figure = Length × Breadth

Total area of rectangular wall = (4x+3) × 4x = (16x² + 12x) square units

Area of window space = (2x) × (x) = (2x²) square units

Area of door space = (x) × (3x) = (3x²) square units

Area of the wall to be painted = (16x² + 12x) - (2x² + 3x²)

= 16x² + 12x - 5x²

= (11x² + 12x) square units

Step-by-step explanation:

En este problema debemos calcular el combustible total de consumió el camión, para eso debemos sumar el valor que consumió el día 1 más el valor que consumió el día 2, de la siguiente manera:

Consumo total = Consumo día 1 + Consumo día 2

Consumo total = 21.77 + 15.22

Consumo total = 36.99

Es decir que el consumo total del camión es de 36.99 litros de combustible.

Problem 10.084 An article in Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy (2005, Vol. 13, pp. 273-279), considered arthroscopic meniscal repair with an absorbable screw. Results showed that for tears greater than 25 millimeters, 14 of 17 repairs were successful while for shorter tears, 22 of 31 repairs were successful. (a) Is there evidence that the success rate is greater for longer tears? Use alpha equals 0.05 . What is the Upper P -value?

Answers

Answer:

The p-value = 0.181186

The p-value is greater than the significance level at which the test was performed, hence, we fail to reject the null hypothesis & say that there isn't enough evidence to suggest that the success rate of repair of longer tears is greater than the success rate of repair of shorter tears.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a two-sample hypothesis test as we want to test the whether the success rate for one group of tears is more than the other

For hypothesis testing, the first thing to define is the null and alternative hypothesis.

In hypothesis testing, especially one comparing two sets of data, the null hypothesis plays the devil's advocate and usually takes the form of the opposite of the theory to be tested. It usually contains the signs =, ≤ and ≥ depending on the directions of the test. It usually maintains that, with random chance responsible for the outcome or results of any experimental study/hypothesis testing, its statement is true.

The alternative hypothesis usually confirms the theory being tested by the experimental setup. It usually contains the signs ≠, < and > depending on the directions of the test. It usually maintains that significant factors other than random chance, affect the outcome or results of the experimental study/hypothesis testing and result in its own statement.

For this question where we are testing if the success rate of longer tears is greater than the success rate of shorter tears,

The null hypothesis is that there is no significant difference in the success rate for the two types of tears. That is, there isn't enough evidence to suggest that the success rate of longer tears is greater than the success rate of shorter tears.

The alternative hypothesis is that there is enough evidence to suggest that the success rate of longer tears is greater than the success rate of shorter tears.

Mathematically, if the success rate of longer tears is p₁, success rate of repair of shorter tears is p₂. And the difference between the two success rates is μ = p₁ - p₂,

The null hypothesis is represented as

H₀: μ = 0 or p₁ = p₂

The alternative hypothesis is represented as

Hₐ: μ > 0 or p₁ > p₂

We then calculate the test statistic

The test statistic for two samples test is given as

t = (p₁ - p₂)/σ

σ = √{[p₁(1-p₁)/n₁] + [p₂(1-p₂)/n₂]}

p₁ = success rate of repair of longer tears = (14/17) = 0.8235

n₁ = 17

p₂ = success rate of repair of shorter tears = (22/31) = 0.7097

n₂ = 31

σ =

√{[0.8235(1-0.8235)/17] + [0.7097(1-0.7097)/31]}

σ = √[(0.8235×0.1765/17) + (0.7097×0.2903/31)]

= √(0.0085498676 + 0.0066459971)

= √0.0151958647 = 0.1232715081 = 0.1233

t = (p₁ - p₂)/σ

t = (0.8235 - 0.7097)/0.1233

t = 0.92

checking the tables for the p-value of this t-statistic

Degree of freedom = df = n₁ + n₂ - 2 = 17 + 31 - 2 = 46

Significance level = 0.05

The hypothesis test uses a one-tailed condition because we're testing only in one direction.

p-value (for t = 0.92, at 0.05 significance level, df = 46, with a one tailed condition) = 0.181186

The interpretation of p-values is that

When the (p-value > significance level), we fail to reject the null hypothesis and when the (p-value < significance level), we reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternative hypothesis.

So, for this question, significance level = 0.05

p-value = 0.181186

0.181186 > 0.05

Hence,

p-value > significance level

This means that we fail to reject the null hypothesis & say that there isn't enough evidence to suggest that the success rate of repair of longer tears is greater than the success rate of repair of shorter tears.

Amount he receives for baking one cake = $5

Amount he would receive for baking x cakes = $5x

Equation: 5x + 20 = 50

Answer:

20 + 5x = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of cakes

-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:
