the common diiference of an ap is 4 . the last term is 72 and the sum of all terms is 600. find the first term and the number of terms​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a = - 24 ; n =25

a = 28 ; n = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

n = l - a/d + 1

d = common difference = 4

Last term = l = 72

n = 72 - a/4 + 1

4n = 72 - a + 4

4n = 76 - a

a = 76 - 4n - - - (1)

Sum of terms :

Sn = n/2(a + l)

Sn = 600

600 = n/2(a + 72)

1200 = n(76-4n +72)

1200 = 148n - 4n

4n² - 148n + 1200

Solving the quadratic equation :

Roots of n are :

12 and 25

From (1)

n = 12

a = 76 - 4(12) = 28

n = 25

a = 76 - 4(25) = - 24

Hence,

a = - 24 ; n =25

a = 28 ; n = 25

What is Algebra?

Algebra is the study of abstract symbols, while logic is the manipulation of all those ideas.

The acronym PEMDAS stands for Parenthesis, Exponent, Multiplication, Division, Addition, and Subtraction. This approach is used to answer the problem correctly and completely.

We are given an expression as;

[tex]27^{-1/3} = \frac{9^{1/4} }{3^{r + 1}}[/tex]

Now we can see that

27 = 3³

9 = 3²

Then the power are 3(-1/3) = -1

3(1/4) = 3/4

So we have;

[tex]3^{-1} = \frac{3^{2/4} }{3^{r + 1}}\\\\3^{-1} =3^{1/2 -r - 1} \\\\3^{-1} =3^{1 -2r - 2 /2}\\\\3^{-1} =3^{-2r - 1/2}[/tex]

So,

-2 = -2r - 1

-2r = -1

r = 1/2

Triangle G F E is cut by line segment H J. Line segment H J goes from side G E to F E. The length of G F is 4 x minus 4, the length of H J is x + 3, and the length of J E is x minus 1.
If H is the midpoint of GE and J is the midpoint of FE, determine the following lengths.

HJ =

JE =

Answers

Answer:

HJ = 8  JE = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

it is given that H is the midpoint of GE and J is the midpoint of FE. According to the midpoint theorem the line segment connecting the midpoint of two sides is parallel to the three side and its length is half of the third side. since JH is connecting the midpoints.

HJ= 1/2 (GF)

x + 3 = 1/2 (4x - 4)

x + 3 = 2x - 2

x = 5

^ Thus meaning the value of x is 5.

Now you just fill into your equations:

HJ = x + 3 = (5)  + 3 = 8

JE = x - 1 = (5) - 1 = 4

Therefore, HJ = 8; JE = 4.

Answer:

Waterbrook Farm Includes 240 acres of cropland. The farm owner wishes to plant this
acreage in both corn and soybeans. The profit per acre in com production is $325 and
In soybeans is $180. A total of 320 hours of labor is available. Each acre of com
requires 2 hours of tabor, whereas each acre of soybeans requires 1 hour of labor.
Lot x = the number of acres planted with corn.
Let y = the number of acres planted with soybeans.

1) What would the farm's profits be if they planted only corn?

2) What would the farm's profits be if they planted only soybeans?

3) Find the equation for the Waterbrook Farm's profit (P = ),

4) Make a system of inequalities based off the constraints of the Farm.

5) In DESMOS. graph the system of inequalities

6) How should the land be divided between the corn and soybeans in order to yield
the mamum profit?

7) What is the maximum profit of planting both com and soybeans for the Farm?

Answers

Answer:

1) $52,000

2) $43,200

3) P = 325 × x + 180 × y

4) x + y ≤ 240

2·x + y ≤ 320

325 × x + 180 × y ≤ 52,000

5) Please find a similar graph created with MS Excel

6) Corn will have 80 acres

Soybean will have 160 acres

7) $54,800

Step-by-step explanation:

The acres of cropland at the Waterbrook Farm, A = 240 acres

The profit per acre in corn production, p₁ = $325

The profit per acre in soybean production, p₂ = $180

The hours of labor required by each acre of corn = 2 hours

The hours of labor required by each acre of soybeans = 1 hours

The number of acres planted with corn = x

The number of acres planted with soybeans = y

1) The farm's profit, 'P', if they planted only corn is P = p₁ × A

∴ P = $325/acre × 320 hours/(2 hours/acre) = $52,000

The farm's profit if they planted only corn, P = $52,000

2) The farm's profit, 'P', if they planted only corn is P = p₂ × A

The required labor for cultivating the 240 acres at 1 hour/acre = 240 hours of labor

Therefore, the labor is sufficient for the entire farmland, we get;

The profit, P = $180/acre × 240 acres  = $43,200

∴ The farm's profit if they planted only soybeans, P = $43,200

3) The equation for the Waterbrook Farm's profit, 'P' can be found, depending on the area of the farm used for the corn and the soybeans as follows;

P = 325 × x + 180 × y

4) The system of inequalities includes;

x + y ≤ 240

2·x + y ≤ 320

325 × x + 180 × y ≤ 52,000

5) Using DESMOS, we have;

The graph of the systems of inequalities is plotted and a graph similar to the attached graph created with MS Excel is found

6) The maximum profit point found using DESMOS is (80, 160)

Therefore, for maximum profit, 80 acres should be used for corn while 160 acres should be used for soybeans

7) The maximum profit of planting both corn and soybeans is found from the profit obtained from the land divided between corn and soybeans in order to yield maximum profit as follows;

P = 325 × 80 + 180 × 160 = 54,800

The maximum profit of planting both corn and soybeans, P = $54,800.

PLEASE HELP

Answers

Answer:

-1 ; -1 ; the two lines are parallel

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of the two lines, we can proceed in two different ways:

1) the faster is do the division: -a/b where a is the number the multiplies x and b is the number that multiplies y

line 1: m = 3/-3 = -1   line 2: -4/4 = -1

2) the second is to rewrite the two equation in the slope intercept form and find what term multiplies the x

line 1

-3y = 3x+6

-y = x + 2

y = -x -2

m = -1

line 2

x+y = 2

y = -x +2

m = -1

the two lines have the same slope, so they are parallel

What is the coordinate of the focus
for the following parabola:
(x - 1)^2 = 12(y + 2)

Answers

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The required focus of the parabola (x - 1)^2 = 12(y + 2) is (1, 1). Option D is correct.

Given that, equation of the parabola,

[tex](x - 1)^2 = 12(y + 2)[/tex]


What is a parabola?

A parabola is cross-section cut out of the cone and represented by an equation [tex]y = 4ax^2[/tex]. Where a is focus.

Here,
[tex](x - 1)^2 = 12(y + 2)[/tex]
Simplify the above parabola equation to stand equation
[tex]y = \frac{1}{4(f-k)} (x-h)^2 + k[/tex]
[tex]y =\frac{1}{4(1-(-2))} (x - 1)^2 - 2[/tex]
Now comparing above the equation,
vertex of a parabola,
h = 1 and k = -2

And focus
So the coordinate of the focus of the parabola = (h, f)
= (1, 1)      

     

             

Thus, the required focus of the parabola (x - 1)^2 = 12(y + 2) is (1, 1). Option D is correct.
