If the 5th term in a geometric sequence is 162, and the common ratio is 3. What is the first term in the sequence?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

a2 = a1×3

a3 = a2×3 = a1×3×3

=>

an = an-1 × 3 =

[tex]a1 \times {3}^{n - 1} [/tex]

a5 = 162 = a1×3⁴ = a1×81

a1 = 162/81 = 2

685 gym members were asked if they use the elliptical machine or treadmill as their primary cardiovascular exercise. 257 said they use the treadmill, 157 said they use the elliptical, and 85 said they use both.

a.) Organize this using a venn diagram (2 marks)

b.) A gym member is chosen from this group. What is the probability that this member uses the treadmill only? (1 mark)

Answers

Given:

Total number of gym members = 685

257 said they use the treadmill, 157 said they use the elliptical, and 85 said they use both.

To find:

a. The venn diagram.

b. The probability that a member uses the treadmill only?

Solution:

(a)

We have,

Total number of gym members = 685

Treadmill user = 257

Elliptical user = 157

Who use both = 85

Only treadmill user is:

[tex]257-85=172[/tex]

Only Elliptical used

[tex]157-85=72[/tex]

Therefore, the venn diagram for the given situation is shown below.

(b)

The member who use treadmill only = 172

Total user = 685

The probability that a member uses the treadmill only is:

[tex]P(\text{Only treadmill})=\dfrac{\text{Only treadmill users}}{\text{Total users}}[/tex]

[tex]P(\text{Only treadmill})=\dfrac{172}{685}[/tex]

Therefore, the probability that a member uses the treadmill only is [tex]\dfrac{172}{685}[/tex].

Answers

Answer:

3x - y +5=0

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope:-

=> m = 2-8/-1-1 = -6/-2

=> m = 3

Using point slope form :-

=> y - 2 = 3 ( x - (-1))

=> y - 2 = 3x + 3

=> 3x - y +5 = 0

Answer:

y=3x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

first find the gradient

m=y2-y1/x2-x1

from the coordinates you are given x one is -1,x two is1,y one is 2,y two is 8

8-2/1-(-1)

=3

therefore the gradient is 3

after finding the gradient use the equation

y-y1=m(x-x1)

substitute x1,y1 and the gradient..y and x are constant

y-2=3(x-(-1))

y-2=3x+3

y=3x+3+2

y=3x+5

In London today, four times the high temperature was more than twice the high temperature plus
sixty-six. In interval form, what are the possible temperatures

Answers

Answer:

Let's define the high temperature as T.

We know that:

"four times T, was more than 2*T plus 66°C"

(i assume that the temperature is in °C)

We can write this inequality as:

4*T > 2*T + 66°C

Now we just need to solve this for T.

subtracting 2*T in both sides, we get:

4*T - 2*T > 2*T + 66°C - 2*T

2*T > 66°C

Now we can divide both sides by 2:

2*T/2 > 66°C/2

T > 33°C

So T was larger than 33°C

Notice that T = 33°C is not a solution of the inequality, then we should use the symbol ( for the set notation.

Then the range of possible temperatures is:

(33°C, ...)

Where we do not have an upper limit, so we could write this as:

(33°C, ∞°C)

(ignoring the fact that ∞°C is something impossible because it means infinite energy, but for the given problem it works)

Solve for x. Round to the nearest tenth of a degree, if necessary.

Answers

Answer:

A ; 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the side facing the right angle is the hypotenuse and it has a measure of length 42

The side facing the missing angle is the opposite and it has a length of 15

The trigonometric ratio that connects the hypotenuse and the opposite is the sine

The sine of an angle is the ratio of the opposite to the hypotenuse

Thus;

sine ? = 15/42

sine ? = 0.357

what s the equation of the line through the origin and (-2, 3)

Answers

Answer:

y=[tex]\frac{-3x}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We need to find the equation of the line that passes through the origin (the point (0,0)) and (-2,3)

There are 3 ways to write the equation of the line, although the most common way is slope-intercept form.

Slope-intercept form is given as y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

So we need to find the slope of the line first

The formula for the slope (m) calculated from two points [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}[/tex] where ([tex]x_{1}[/tex],[tex]y_{1}[/tex]) and ([tex]x_{2}[/tex], [tex]y_{2}[/tex]) are points

We have the needed information to calculate the slope, but let's label the values of the points to avoid any confusion

[tex]x_{1}[/tex]=0

[tex]y_{1}[/tex]=0

[tex]x_{2}[/tex]=-2

[tex]y_{2}[/tex]=3

Now substitute their values into the equation and find m

m=[tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}[/tex]

m=[tex]\frac{3-0}{-2-0}[/tex]

subtract

m=[tex]\frac{3}{-2}[/tex]

so the slope of the line is [tex]\frac{3}{-2}[/tex]. It can also be rewritten as [tex]\frac{-3}{2}[/tex]

Here is the equation of the line so far:

y=[tex]\frac{-3x}{2}[/tex]+b

we need to find b

As the equation passes through both (0,0) and (-2,3), we can use either one of them to solve for b

Let's take (0,0) for this case

Substitute 0 as x and 0 as y

0=-[tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex](0)+b

multiply

0=0+b

add 0 to both sides

0=b

So b is 0

The equation of the line therefore is y=[tex]\frac{-3x}{2}[/tex]

Hope this helps!
