2) Find the common difference in the arithmetic sequence, an, in which a1 = 16 and a9 = 36.
[Show all work.]

Answers

Answer 1

The common difference in the arithmetic sequence is 2.5

What is arithmetic sequence ?

Arithmetic sequence is a sequence in which the differences between consecutive terms are always same.

Example : 2, 5, 8, 11, ..... is an arithmetic sequence where the common difference is 3.

What is the formula of arithmetic sequence ?

Formula of arithmetic sequence is [tex]a_{n} =a_{1}+(n-1)d[/tex] ,

where [tex]a_{n}[/tex]= [tex]n^{th}[/tex] term in the sequence,

[tex]a_{1}[/tex]= [tex]1^{st}[/tex] term in the sequence,

d = common difference between terms

How to find required common difference ?

Given, [tex]a_{1}[/tex] = 16 and [tex]a_{9}[/tex] = 36

Let, d be the common difference.

∴ From the formula of arithmetic sequence,

   [tex]a_{9} =a_{1}+(9-1)d[/tex]

⇒ 36 = 16+8d

⇒ 36-16=8d

⇒ 20=8d

⇒ d = 20/8

⇒ d = 5/2 = 2.5

Hence, The common difference is 2.5

What is the solution to the equation 5 x = 32?

a. x = 6
b. x = 6.4
c. x = 27
d. x = 160

Answers

Answer

   x = 32/5 = 6.400

Answer is B

Step-by-step explanation:

1: Rearrange

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation

Solving a Single Variable Equation

Solve  :    5x-32 = 0  

Add  32  to both sides of the equation :  

                     5x = 32

Divide both sides of the equation by 5:

                    x = 32/5 = 6.400

The correct answer is B.

Answer:   x = 32/5 = 6.400

Hope this helps.

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

5x=32 move the 5 over by dividing

x=5/32. 5 divided by 32 equals 6.4

so x=6.4

Suppose an investment of $500 doubles in value every 15 years. How much is the investment worth after 30 years? After 45 years?Write an equation and solve

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

well all you have to do is 500 dollars times two, because it times each 15 years right and 30/15=2. So you do $500*2 which is $1000. And you get $1500 in 45 yrs.

So the equations are for each 15 yrs you add 500 dollars to the amount.

Answers

Answer:

a) Any 2 sides

b) exactly 90°

Step-by-step explanation:

The point of the Pythagorean Theorem is to find the length of the hypotenuse using 2 sides.

This only works for right triangles.

Hope this helps!

-MoCKEry

Answer:

1) any two sides

2)exactly 90 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The pythagorean theorem only applies to right angle triangles

since right angle triangles measure 90 degrees exactly we will choose exactly 90 as an option.

2) so the formula for pythagorean theorem is a^2+b^2=c^2  where

a=side 1

b= side 2

c=hypotenuse(biggest side)

to find the hypotenuse you need to know both the values of a and b hence we will take the option "any two sides"

a bag is filled with 4 red marbles, 3 blue marbles,3 yellow marbles, and 2 green marbles. you randomly choose one marble from the bag. (a) find the number of ways the event can occur. (b) find the favorable outcomes of the event

Answers

Answer:

a. 12

b. it depends on the color of the marble.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case the number of ways would be the number of events, in this case the events would be the total number of marbles since any of them can come out. so:

4 + 3 + 3 + 2 = 12

Therefore, the number of ways the event can occur is 12 ways.

Now, in the favorable outcomes of the event, it would come depending on what color the marble would be, whether it be red, blue, yellow or green.

In each color, the number of the favorable outcomes of the event would be the quantity of each marble, that is, 4 for red, 3 for blue, 3 for yellow and 2 for green.

Rectangle A is in the upper left portion of the large rectangle. The left side of rectangle A is labeled 5 inches and it is part of the left side of the large rectangle. Rectangle B is in the lower left portion of the large rectangle below rectangle A. The lower side of rectangle B is labeled 3 inches and makes up a part of the lower side of the large rectangle. Rectangle D makes up the right side of the large rectangle and is to the right of rectangle A. The upper side of rectangle D is labeled 3 inches and makes up a part of the upper side of the large rectangle. The right side of rectangle D makes up the entire right side of the large rectangle. Square C lies below rectangle A and between rectangles B and D. The lower side of square C is labeled 4 inches and makes up part of the lower side of the big rectangle. The right side of square C is also labeled 4 inches.

Answers

Answer:. 12/90. Or about 13.3%

Step-by-step explanation: If I interpreted your description correctly, and put the dimensions in the correct places, the large rectangle has an overall width of 10 inches and length of 9 inches. The Total Area is 90 sq in.

The rectangle Region B is 3 (given) by 4 (assumed from shared side with the given square) . So the Area of region B is 12 sq in.

The chance of randomly selecting a point is the ratio of the Area of the selected region to the Total Area. In this example, it's 12/90, simplified to 2/15 or about 13.3%

Find the mean absolute deviation (MAD) of the data in the pictograph

Answers

Answer:

1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the mean (average) of the data set.

mean = (x1 + x2 + ...)/N

where x1, x2, ... are the data points, and N the total amount of data points.

mean = (7 + 2 + 4 + 3)/4 = 4

Then, mean absolute deviation is computed as follows:

MAD = (|x1 - mean| + |x2 - mean| + ...)/N

MAD = (|7 - 4| + |2 - 4| + |4 - 4| + |3 - 4|)/4

MAD = (3 + 2 + 1)/4 = 1.5

what is the volume of the cylinder

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

volume =πr²h=π×4²×8=128π in³

The volume of the cylinder would be 128π in^3

Finding the volume of a cylinder involves its formula: b*h=v. In the case of a cylinder and even cones, your base is a circle, and therefore is the area of said circle.

What you first want to do is find the area of the circle, to do that you need to know the formula which is r^2*pi. A cylinder has two congruent sides which are the circles, therefore the radius of one circle is the same as the other. Now use the radius of the circle on the top of the cylinder and square it. 4^2=16. Next we need to multiply 16 by pi (pi can be multiplied like a variable and just added next to 16. Therefore 16*pi= 16π.

Next now that you have your base (16π) you must multiply by your height which is 8 in this case (the length between the two circles). 16π*8 and now multiply as it it were two terms (a variable and whole number) so 16π*8= 128π
