The sum of the first two terms of an infinite GP is 6 and each term is 5 times the sum of the succeeding termsthen the second term GP is

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]\dfrac{6}{7}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the sum of first two terms of an infinite GP is 6.

nth term of a GP is

[tex]a_n=ar^{n-1}[/tex]

[tex]a+ar=6[/tex]     ...(1)

Each term is 5 times the sum of the succeeding terms.

[tex]a_n=5(a_{n+1}+a_{n+2}+...+\infty)[/tex]

[tex]ar^{n-1}=5(ar^n+ar^{n+1}+...+\infty)[/tex]

[tex]ar^{n-1}=5ar^n(1+r+r^2+...+\infty)[/tex]

Divide both sides by a.

[tex]r^{n-1}=5r^n(\dfrac{1}{1-r})[/tex]    [tex][\text{Sum of infinite GP}=\dfrac{a}{1-r}][/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{r^n}{r}=\dfrac{5r^n}{1-r}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{1}{r}=\dfrac{5}{1-r}[/tex]

[tex]1-r=5r[/tex]

[tex]1=6r[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{1}{6}=r[/tex]

The common ratio is 1/6.

Put r=1/6 in (1).

[tex]a+a(\dfrac{1}{6})=6[/tex]

[tex]6a+a=36[/tex]

[tex]7a=36[/tex]

[tex]a=\dfrac{36}{7}[/tex]

Second term [tex]ar=\dfrac{36}{7}\times \dfrac{1}{6}=\dfrac{6}{7}[/tex]

Therefore, the second term is [tex]\dfrac{6}{7}[/tex].

which linear inequality is represented by the graph?

Answers

Answer

y < or = 1/2x + 3

Explanation

We know when x = 0, y has to be 3 (y intercept).

Therefore y>= or <= 2x + 4 is wrong since substituting x = 0 gives y=4.

Since you need the shaded part of the graph that’s under the line you need all the y values that are smaller than and equal to the inequality.

If it was greater than or smaller to the area above the line would be shaded.

There are 200 people in a cinema. 25% of the people are men. 1⁄5 of the people are women. The rest of the people are children. Work out how many children are in the cinema.

Answers

Answer:

110

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 200 people in a cinema- This is our total amount.

25 % of the people are men.

.25 times 200= 50

There are 50 men.

1/5 (20%) of the people are women.

.2 times 200 = 40

There are 40 women.

50+40 = 90

There are 90 adults in the cinema.

If there are 200 total people in the cinema, and 90 of them are adult, then 110 of them are children.

The percentage is 55%.

The simplified fraction is 11/20.

The decimal is .55  

An account is opened with $7,595.96 with a rate of increase of 2% per year. After 1 year, the bank account contains $7,746.90. Assuming no deposits or withdrawals are made, which equation can be used to find y, the amount of money in the account after x years

Answers

Answer:

y = 7,595.96(1.02)x

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 7,595.96(1.02)x

a normal linear equation is basically y = x + b

in this case,

y = amount of money in the bank accountx = number of yearsb is not required because there are no new deposits or withdrawals from the account

Since the accounts earns 2% interest per year, then you need to multiply the original amount by 1.02. As more years pass, the account will increase by 1.02, so the account increases by 1.02x. Since the original amount is $7,595.96, that will be our starting point.

the total surface area of a cube is 294cm2. work out the volume of the cube.

Answers

Answer: 343 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of a cube is 6s^2, where s is the side length of a square.  Thus, first do 294/6 to get 49.  Then take the square root of 49 to get that each side of the cube is 7.  The volume of a cube is s^2, so simply do 7*7*7 to get that the volume of the cube is 343cm^3

Hope it helps <3

Answer:

V =343 cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of a cube is given by

SA = 6s^2 where s is the side length

294 = 6s^2

Divide by 6

294 / 6 = s^2

49 = s^2

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(49) = sqrt(s^2)

7 =s

The volume of a cube is

V = s^3

V = 7^3

V =343 cm^3

Two vectors are said to be parallel if they point in the same direction or if they point in opposite directions.

Part B
Are the vectors Ui =< 2, 3 >and u2 =-3,-2 > parallel? Show your work and explain.

Answers

Answer:

When two vectors are parallel, it's because the angles of inclination are equivalent. They are defined by

[tex]\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{y}{x} )[/tex]

So, we just need to find the angle for each vector and see if they are equivalent.

We have vectors [tex](3,1)[/tex] and [tex](-13,-1)[/tex]. You already can deduce that these vectors are not parallel, because, their divisions are not equivalent.

[tex]\frac{1}{3} \neq \frac{-1}{-13}[/tex]

Which will give different angles in the end.

Let's try the other pair of vectors [tex](2,3)[/tex] and [tex](-3.-2)[/tex]. Their division would be

[tex]\frac{3}{2} \neq \frac{-2}{-3}\\ 1.5 \neq 0.67[/tex]

As you can observe, their divisions are not equivalent, which means their tangents are not equivalent.

Therefore, those vectors are not parallel, because they don't have equivalent angles of inclination, not matter if they are pointing to the same or different direction.

Caroline, Colin & Sarah share some money in the ratio 1 : 9 : 1.
In total, Caroline and Sarah receive £28.
How much does Colin get?

Answers

Answer:

Colin got £126

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we want to know how much Colin got from the sharing.

We can collapse the ratio to mean;

Colin : Caroline + Sarah

= 9:1 + 1 = 9:2

So total ratio is 9 + 2 = 11

If Caroline and Sarah got £28 we need to find the total money shared

Let the total money shared be £x

Thus;

2/11 * x = 28

2x = 11 * 28

x = (11 * 28)/2

x = 11 * 14 = £154

So the amount of money Colin got would be;

£154 - £28 = £126

A) range = 9 , variance = 8.3015,  standard deviation = 2.8812

B)  The results cannot be a representative of the variation of attractiveness among the population of adult males

Step-by-step explanation:

A ) calculate the Range, variance and standard deviation

The given data = 9, 6, 2, 1, 2, 5, 5, 1, 2, 6, 8, 10, 6, 6, 1, 5, 1, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5, 10, 9, 1, 6

Let R be the relation on the set of ordered pairs of positive integers such that ((a, b), (c, d)) ∈ R if and only if ad = bc. Arrange the proof of the given statement in correct order to show that R is an equivalence relation. (Prove the given relation is reflexive first, and then symmetric and transitive.)

Answers

Answer:

The given relation R is equivalence relation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

[tex]((a, b), (c, d))\in R[/tex]

Where [tex]R[/tex] is the relation on the set of ordered pairs of positive integers.

To prove, a relation R to be equivalence relation we need to prove that the relation is reflexive, symmetric and transitive.

1. First of all, let us check reflexive property:

Reflexive property means:

[tex]\forall a \in A \Rightarrow (a,a) \in R[/tex]

Here we need to prove:

[tex]\forall (a, b) \in A \Rightarrow ((a,b), (a,b)) \in R[/tex]

As per the given relation:

[tex]((a,b), (a,b) ) \Rightarrow ab =ab[/tex] which is true.

[tex]\therefore[/tex] R is reflexive.

2. Now, let us check symmetric property:

Symmetric property means:

[tex]\forall \{a,b\} \in A\ if\ (a,b) \in R \Rightarrow (b,a) \in R[/tex]

Here we need to prove:

[tex]\forall {(a, b),(c,d)} \in A \ if\ ((a,b),(c,d)) \in R \Rightarrow ((c,d),(a,b)) \in R[/tex]

As per the given relation:

[tex]((a,b),(c,d)) \in R[/tex] means [tex]ad = bc[/tex]

[tex]((c,d),(a,b)) \in R[/tex] means [tex]cb = da\ or\ ad =bc[/tex]

Hence true.

[tex]\therefore[/tex] R is symmetric.

3. R to be transitive, we need to prove:

[tex]if ((a,b),(c,d)),((c,d),(e,f)) \in R \Rightarrow ((a,b),(e,f)) \in R[/tex]

[tex]((a,b),(c,d)) \in R[/tex] means [tex]ad = cb[/tex].... (1)

[tex]((c,d), (e,f)) \in R[/tex] means [tex]fc = ed[/tex] ...... (2)

To prove:

To be [tex]((a,b), (e,f)) \in R[/tex] we need to prove: [tex]fa = be[/tex]

Multiply (1) with (2):

[tex]adcf = bcde\\\Rightarrow fa = be[/tex]

So, R is transitive as well.

Hence proved that R is an equivalence relation.

The relation R is an equivalence if it is reflexive, symmetric and transitive.

The order to options required to show that R is an equivalence relation are;

((a, b), (a, b)) ∈ R since a·b = b·aTherefore, R is reflexiveIf ((a, b), (c, d)) ∈ R then a·d = b·c, which gives c·b = d·a, then ((c, d), (a, b)) ∈ RTherefore, R is symmetricIf ((c, d), (e, f)) ∈ R, and ((a, b), (c, d)) ∈ R therefore, c·f = d·e, and a·d = b·cMultiplying gives, a·f·c·d = b·e·c·d, which gives, a·f = b·e, then ((a, b), (e, f)) ∈RTherefore R is transitiveFrom the above proofs, the relation R is reflexive, symmetric, and transitive, therefore, R is an equivalent relation.

Reasons:

Prove that the relation R is reflexive

Reflexive property is a property is the property that a number has a value that it posses (it is equal to itself)

The given relation is ((a, b), (c, d)) ∈ R if and only if a·d = b·c

By multiplication property of equality; a·b = b·a

Therefore;

((a, b), (a, b)) ∈ R

The relation, R, is reflexive.

Prove that the relation, R, is symmetric

Given that if ((a, b), (c, d)) ∈ R then we have, a·d = b·c

Therefore, c·b = d·a implies ((c, d), (a, b)) ∈ R

((a, b), (c, d)) and ((c, d), (a, b)) are symmetric.

Therefore, the relation, R, is symmetric.

Prove that R is transitive

Symbolically, transitive property is as follows; If x = y, and y = z, then x = z

From the given relation, ((a, b), (c, d)) ∈ R, then a·d = b·c

Therefore, ((c, d), (e, f)) ∈ R, then c·f = d·e

By multiplication, a·d × c·f = b·c × d·e

a·d·c·f = b·c·d·e

Therefore;

a·f·c·d = b·e·c·d

a·f = b·e

Which gives;

((a, b), (e, f)) ∈ R, therefore, the relation, R, is transitive.

Therefore;

R is an equivalence relation, since R is reflexive, symmetric, and transitive.

Based on a similar question posted online, it is required to rank the given options in the order to show that R is an equivalence relation.
