Use Gauss's approach to find a formula for
the sum of the even numbers from 2 to 2n:
2 + 4 + 6 + ... + 2n
Your formula will be an expression involving n.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

sum = n (n+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let S = sum

Gauss's approach

S = 2     + 4        + 6    + ...  + 2n -4  + 2n-2  +  2n

S = 2n + 2n-2 + 2n-4  +  ... +  6         + 4         + 2

add both equations term by term in order

2S = 2n+2  +  2n+2  + 2n+2 ..... (n times

therefore

S = n(n+1)

check:

n = 1,  S = 1(1+1) = 2   [= 2]

n = 2,  S = 2(2+1) = 6   [= 2+4]

...

checks

Answer 2

Gauss's approach was introduced by Carl Friedrich Gauss according to legend, while he was in primary school

The sum of 2 + 4 + 6 +...+ 2·n is n·(n + 1)

The reason the above expression is correct is as follows:

The required numbers to sum are;

Sum 2 to 2·n

The Gauss's approach involves the adding of the first and last and summing the result as follows:

2 × (2 + 4 + ... + 2·n) = (2·n + 2) + (2·n - 2 + 4) + (2·n - 4 + 6)+...+ (2 + 2·n)

Therefore, we have;

2 × (2 + 4 + ... + 2·n)  = n × (2·n + 2)

(2 + 4 + ... + 2·n)  = n × (2·n + 2)/2 = n·(n + 1)

The expression n × (2·n + 2)/2 = (n/2) × (2·n + 2) = (n/2) × (2 + 2·n)

(n/2) × (2 + 2·n) = (number of terms)/2 × (First + Last term)

Number of terms = n

First term = a₁

Last term = a₂

Sum of terms, Sₙ = (n/2) × (a₁ + aₙ) general form by Gauss's approach

Therefore;

The sum of 2 + 4 + 6 +...+ 2·n using the Gauss's approach is therefore;

(2 + 4 + ... + 2·n)  = n·(n + 1)

Answers

Answer: A) around 80 cm

=========================================

Explanation:

The perimeter around the circle, aka circumference, is found through this formula

C = 2*pi*r

That's for a full circle. However, we're dealing with semicircles here, so we cut that in half to get pi*r to represent the curved distance around half the circle.

For the outer larger semicircle, that curved distance is exactly 14pi

For the inner smaller semicircle, that curved distance is 7pi, since 7 is half of 14.

The total curved portions is 14pi+7pi = 21pi

Then we add on the last straight line portion that's 14 cm long to get a total perimeter of 21pi+14

This is the exact perimeter in terms of pi.

The last thing to do is replace pi with 3.14 and simplify

21pi+14 = 21*3.14+14 = 79.94

This value rounds to 80

Gather information from relevant source and write about the he Earth's moon .
1000 words​

Answers

Answer:

The Moon's orbit around Earth has a sidereal period of 27.3 days. During each synodic period of 29.5 days, the amount of visible surface illuminated by the Sun varies from none up to 100%, resulting in lunar phases that form the basis for the months of a lunar calendar. The Moon is tidally locked to Earth, which means that the length of a full rotation of the Moon on its own axis causes its same side (the near side) to always face Earth, and the somewhat longer lunar day is the same as the synodic period. That said, 59% of the total lunar surface can be seen from Earth through shifts in perspective due to libration.[17]

The most widely accepted origin explanation posits that the Moon formed about 4.51 billion years ago, not long after Earth, out of the debris from a giant impact between the planet and a hypothesized Mars-sized body called Theia. It then receded to a wider orbit because of tidal interaction with the Earth. The near side of the Moon is marked by dark volcanic maria ("seas"), which fill the spaces between bright ancient crustal highlands and prominent impact craters. Most of the large impact basins and mare surfaces were in place by the end of the Imbrian period, some three billion years ago. The lunar surface is relatively non-reflective, with a reflectance just slightly brighter than that of worn asphalt. However, because it has a large angular diameter, the full moon is the brightest celestial object in the night sky. The Moon's apparent size is nearly the same as that of the Sun, allowing it to cover the Sun almost completely during a total solar eclipse.

You play a game where you first choose a positive integernand thenflip a fair coinntimes. You win a prize if you get exactly 2 heads. How should youchoosento maximize your chance of winning

Answers

Solution :

The probability of winning when you choose n is =  [tex]$^nC_2\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^n$[/tex]

[tex]$n\left(\frac{n-1}{2}\right)\times \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^n = n(n-1)\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{n+1}$[/tex]

Apply log on both the sides,

[tex]$f(n) = \log\left((n)(n-1)\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{n-1}\right) = \log n +\log (n-1)+(n+1) \ \log\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)$[/tex]

Differentiation, f(x) is [tex]$f'=\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{(x-1)}+\log\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)$[/tex]

Let us find x for which f' is positive and x for which f' is negative.

[tex]$\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{(x-1)} > 0.693$[/tex]       , since [tex]$\log(1/2) = 0.693147$[/tex]

For x ≤ 3, f' > 0 for [tex]$\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{x-1}+\log\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)>0$[/tex]

[tex]$\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{x-1}-0.6931470$[/tex]

That means f(x) is increasing function for n ≤ 3

[tex]$\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{x-1}< 0.693147 $[/tex] for x > 4

f' < 0 for n ≥ 4, that means f(n) is decreasing function for n ≥ 4.

Probability of winning when you chose n = 3 is [tex]$3(3-1)\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{3+1}=0.375$[/tex]

Probability of winning when you chose n = 4 is [tex]$4(4-1)\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{4+1}=0.375$[/tex]

Therefore, we should chose either 3 or 4 to maximize chances of winning.

The probability of winning with an optimal choice is n = 0.375

Write and equation of a line that passes through (-5, 6)
and is perpendicular to x=-2

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular means opposite reciprocal as far as the slope goes. The thing we need to know without prompting is that the given slope of x = -2 is a perfectly vertical line with an undefined slope, and that a line perpendicular to this one would have to be a perfectly horizontal line. Slopes of perfectly horizontal lines is always 0. Therefore, filling in the point-slope form of a line using the slope of 0 and the given point:

y - 6 = 0(x -(-5)) and

y - 6 = 0(x + 5) and

y - 6 = 0x + 0 so

y - 6 = 0 and

y = 6.

The heights of the men age 18 and over in HANES5 averaged 69 inches; the SD was 3 inches. Suppose the histogram of their heights follows the normal curve. Such a man that is 6 feet tall is at the percentile of this height distribution. (Enter the nearest whole number.) What is the 25th percentile, to the nearest inch

Answers

Answer:

a) 84th percentile.

b) The 25th percentile is of 67 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

The heights of the men age 18 and over in HANES5 averaged 69 inches; the SD was 3 inches.

This means that [tex]\mu = 69, \sigma = 3[/tex]

Such a man that is 6 feet tall is at the percentile of this height distribution.

6 feet = 6*12 inches = 72 inches. So this percentile is the p-value of Z when X = 72. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{72 - 69}{3}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1[/tex] has a p-value of 0.84, so 84th percentile.

What is the 25th percentile, to the nearest inch

X when Z has a p-value of 0.25, so X when Z = -0.675.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]-0.675 = \frac{X - 69}{3}[/tex]

[tex]X - 69 = -0.675*3[/tex]

[tex]X = 67[/tex]

The 25th percentile is of 67 inches.
