Use sigma notation to represent the sum of the first seven terms of the following sequence -4,-6,-8.....

Answers

Answer:Answer:

[tex]\sum\left {{7} \atop {1}} \right -n(3+n)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the sequence -4,-6,-8..., in order to get sigma notation to represent the sum of the first seven terms of the sequence, we need to first calculate the sum of the first seven terms of the sequence as shown;

The sum of an arithmetic series is expressed as [tex]S_n = \frac{n}{2}[2a+(n-1)d][/tex]

n is the number of terms

a is the first term of the sequence

d is the common difference

Given parameters

n = 7, a = -4 and d = -6-(-4) = -8-(-6) = -2

Required

Sum of the first seven terms of the sequence

[tex]S_7 = \frac{7}{2}[2(-4)+(7-1)(-2)]\\\\S_7 = \frac{7}{2}[-8+(6)(-2)]\\\\S_7 = \frac{7}{2}[-8-12]\\\\\\S_7 = \frac{7}{2} * -20\\\\S_7 = -70[/tex]

The sum of the nth term of the sequence will be;

[tex]S_n = \frac{n}{2}[2(-4)+(n-1)(-2)]\\\\S_n = \frac{n}{2}[-8+(-2n+2)]\\\\S_n = \frac{n}{2}[-6-2n]\\\\S_n = \frac{-6n}{2} - \frac{2n^2}{2}\\S_n = -3n-n^2\\\\S_n = -n(3+n)[/tex]

The sigma notation will be expressed as [tex]\sum\left {{7} \atop {1}} \right -n(3+n)[/tex]. The limit ranges from 1 to 7 since we are to  find  the sum of the first seven terms of the series.

The perpendicular distance of the point from x axis is 2 units and the perpendicular distance from y axis is 3 units.Write the co-ordinates of the if it lies in

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

the  perpendicular distance of the point from x axis = 2 units

the perpendicular distance from y axis is 3 units

The objective is to the write the coordinates of the points if it lies in

(i) | Quadrant  (ii) || Quadrant (iii) ||| Quadrant (iv) |v Quadrant

The position of a point in a plane is conveniently specified by the distances fro two perpendicular lines.The lines are called the x-axis and y-axis and their [point of intersection is called the origin.

The perpendicular distance from the y-axis is called the x- coordinate or abscissa and the perpendicular distance from x-axis is called the y-coordinate or ordinate,The  coordinate form an ordered pair with the abscissa written as first.

With that be said, So In the given question,

the  perpendicular distance of the point from x axis = 2 units

y coordinate = ±2

the perpendicular distance from y axis is 3 units

x coordinate = ±3

The ordered pair of the coordinates = ( ±3, ±2)

Therefore;

in | quadrant ; we have (3,2)   where  x and y are both on the positive axis

in || quadrant ; we have (-3,2)   x is on the negative axis and y is on the positive axis

In ||| quadrant ; we have (-3. -2) both x and y are on the negative axis

In |v quadrant ; we have ( 3, -2)  x is on the positive axis and y is on the negative axis.

equation : c=£1.25 for example to find out 3 cans : 3c= £1.25x3

solve for x 5(x+1)=4(x+8)

Answers

Answer:

x=27

Step-by-step explanation:

expanding the above expression we get

5x+5=4x+32

grouping numbers with coefficient of x at the left side and constant at the right side we get

5x-4x=32-5

x=27

To solve this equation, we start by distributing both the 5 and the 4 through both set of parentheses.

This gives us 5x + 5 = 4x + 32.

Now subtract 4x from both
sides to get x + 5 = 32.

Now subtract 5 from both sides and x = 27.

In which direction must the graph of Ax) = x be shifted to produce the graph of g(x) = f(x) - 4?
ОА. up
OB. down
O c. left and down
OD. right and up​

Answers

Answer: B. down

Step-by-step explanation:

Translation rules:

For a function h(x):

h(x+c) is a left-shift by c units.h(x-c) is a right-shift by c units.h(x)+c is a up-shift by c units.h(x)-c is a down-shift by c units.

Here, the graph of f(x) becomes the graph of g(x) =f(x)-4 which is similar to "h(x)-c".

That means , f(x) is shifted 4 units down to become g(x).

So, correct option : B. down

If m ZABD = 78°, what are mZABC and mZDBC?
(5x+3)
(5x-5)

Answers

ABD = ABC + DBC
Eqivalent to:
78 = (5x + 3) + (5x - 5)
78 = 5x + 5x + 3 - 5
78 = 10x - 2
80 = 10x (move -2 to the left side and get 78 + 2 = 80)
8 = x (80/10 = 8)
With x = 8,
ABC = 5x - 5 = 8*5 - 5 = 40 - 5 = 35
DBC = 5x +3 = 8*5 + 3 = 40 + 3 = 43

Hi, I'm happy to help!

First, we need to solve for x. We know that ABD is 78 degrees. (5x+3), and (5x-5) combined are also 78 degrees. So, we combine the like terms of these to get a new expression.

(5x+3) +(5x-5)

10x-2=78

From here, we want to single out the x, by editing both sides in the same way.

10x-2=78

    +2  +2

10x=80

÷10 ÷10

x=8

Now that we know what x is, we can plug it in to the previous expressions to get the angles of ABC and DBC.

(5x-5)

((5·8)-5)

(40-5)

35

Now, we know that ABC is 35 degrees.

(5x+3)

((5·8)+3)

(40+3)

43

Now, we also know that DBC is 43 degrees.

To verify our answer we can add ABC and DBC together to check if it totals to ABD.

35+43=78

Now, we know that the answer: ABC is 35 degrees and DBC is 43 degrees is correct.

Answers

Answer:

x = 67°

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2 base angles x are congruent , then

x = [tex]\frac{180-46}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{134}{2}[/tex] = 67°

Answer:

X= 67 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

All triangles must add up to 180°. This is an isosceles triangle which means once you have one degree you can find the other two.

In order to get the answer start with 180°-46°

180-46=134

The two x's equal each other. So you can divide the remaining degrees by 2 to get the answer.

134÷2=67.

So the answer is 67°.

The length of a rectangular photo is 1 centimeter less than three times its width. If the area of the photo is 102 square centimeters, find the length and width of the

photo.

The length is

and the width is

(Type whole numbers.)

Answers

Answers:

Length = 17Width = 6

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

How to get those answers:

Let w be the unknown width in centimeters. This variable is some positive real number. This means w > 0 which will be useful later.

The length is "1 cm less than 3 times its width" and it tells us the length is defined by the expression 3w-1. Whatever w is, we triple it to get 3w and then subtract 1 to get the final length.

Multiply the length and width to get the area 102

length*width = area

(3w-1)*w = 102

3w^2-w = 102

3w^2-w-102 = 0

We could guess and check our way to factoring this, but that's not very efficient. The quadratic formula is the better option. It may seem a bit messy, but it's a more direct path that doesn't involve guessing.

[tex]w = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\w = \frac{-(-1)\pm\sqrt{(-1)^2-4(3)(-102)}}{2(3)}\\\\w = \frac{1\pm\sqrt{1225}}{6}\\\\w = \frac{1\pm35}{6}\\\\w = \frac{1+35}{6}\ \text{ or } \ w = \frac{1-35}{6}\\\\w = \frac{36}{6}\ \text{ or } \ w = \frac{-34}{6}\\\\w = 6\ \text{ or } \ w \approx -5.667\\\\[/tex]

We ignore the second solution (w = -5.667 approximately) because we stated earlier that w > 0. In other words, a negative length does not make sense, so that's why we ignore it.

-----------------

If w = 6 cm is the width, then 3w-1 = 3*6-1 = 18-1 = 17 cm is the length.

Note that length*width = 17*6 = 102 which is the proper area we want. This confirms the answers.

A model of a wedge of cheese is used in a display for a deli. All the sides of the model are covered in yellow construction paper. A rectangular prism has a rectangular base with length of 15 centimeters and height of 5 centimeters. Another rectangle has length of 15 centimeters and height of 13 centimeters. Another rectangle has length of 15 centimeters, and height of 12 centimeters. The triangular sides have a base of 5 centimeters and heights of 12 centimeters. How much construction paper is needed for the model? 45 square cm 330 square cm 510 square cm 570 square cm

Answers

Answer:

510 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how much construction paper is needed for the model, we calculate the total areas of each of its sides.

The area of the first triangular sides is A₁ = 15 cm × 5 cm = 75 cm²

The area of the second triangular sides is A₂ = 15 cm × 13 cm = 195 cm²

The area of the third triangular sides is A₃ = 15 cm × 12 cm = 180 cm²

The area of each triangular side is A₄ = 1/2 × 5 cm × 12 cm = 30 cm²

The area of the two triangular sides is A₅ = 2A₄ = 2 × 30 cm² = 60 cm²

The total surface area of a wedge of cheese is A = A₁ + A₂ + A₃ + A₅ = 75 cm² + 195 cm² + 180 cm² + 60 cm² = 510 cm²

So the amount of construction paper needed equals the total surface area of the wedge of cheese = 510 cm²

Solution

The scale measures mass to the tenth of a gram

The scale measures up to 650 grams

a.3.8 grams

This measures to the tenth of a gram (to one decimal place) and it is not up to 650 grams

b.120.01 grams

This measures to hundredth of a gram ( 2 decimal places) and it is not up 650 grams.

c.800.0 grams

This measures to the tenth of a gram but exceeds the 650 grams limit

d.54 milligrams

This is in milligram, so it is wrong

Option a.3.8 grams is the only possible scale measurement among the options.

66 units
46 units
O 33 units
38 units

Answers

Answer:

66

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure of triangle JKL is attached. JA = 9, AL = 10, and CK = 14.

According to two tangent theorem, the tangent to a circle that meets at the same point is equal to each other. Therefore:

AJ = BJ, AL = CL, CK = BK.

Since AJ = 9, BJ = AJ = 9

AL = 10, CL = AL = 10

CK = 14, BK = CK = 14.

Therefore the lengths of the triangle sides are:

JL = AJ + AL = 9 + 10 = 19

JK = BJ + BK = 9 + 14 = 23

KL = CL + CK = 14 + 10 = 24

The perimeter of the triangle is the sum of all its sides, it is given as:

Perimeter = JL + JK + KL = 19 + 23 + 24 = 66
