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

Answers

Answer 1

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.

  PQRS is a parallelogram with right-angle corners

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the midsegment of a triangle is parallel to the base.

  QR is the midsegment of triangle BCD, so is parallel to BD.

  SP is the midsegment of triangle DAB, so is parallel to BD.

QR and SP are both parallel to BD, so are parallel to each other.

  RS is the midsegment of triangle CAD, so is parallel to AC.

  PQ is the midsegment of triangle ABC, so is parallel to AC.

RS and PQ are both parallel to AC, so are parallel to each other.

__

We have shown that opposite sides of PQRS are parallel to each other, so the figure is at least a parallelogram.

__

By virtue of the congruence of corresponding angles where a transversal crosses parallel lines, each of the so-far named lines can be shown to be perpendicular to any of the lines it meets.* Hence the figure PQRS must be a parallelogram with right angles, a rectangle.

_____

* Transversal BD crosses PQ, AC, and RS at right angles. Hence, transversals RS and PQ cross QR, BD, and SP at right angles. That is, the angles at corners P, Q, R, and S of the parallelogram are right angles.

PLEASE HELP ME !!!!!!!!!!

if the distance of load from hinge and spring balance are 35 cm and 15 cm respectively. What is the load weight used if the applied force is 4N ?

Answers

Answer:

The load weight is 2.29 N

Step-by-step explanation:

We note that  at equilibrium, the sum of the moment and the sum of forces about a point is zero, therefore, we have;

∑M =0

∑F = 0

The parameters given are;

The distance of the load from the hinge = 35 cm

The distance of the load from the spring balance = 15 cm

The applied force on the spring balance = 4 N↑

The direction of the applied force on the spring balance = Upwards

Let the weight of the load = W↓

The direction of the weight of the load = Downwards

We use downward negative and upward positive coefficients for the forces

We take moment about the hinge as follows;

Sum of moments equals zero gives;

4 × (35 - 15) - W × 35 = 0

∴ 4 × (35 - 15) = W × 35

4 × 20 = W × 35

W = 4 × 20/35 = 2.29 N

The weight of the load = 2.29 N.

Answer:

The load weight is 2.29 N

Barry has been watching the geese that live in his neighborhood. The number of geese changes each week. n f(n) 1 56 2 28 3 14 4 7 Which function best shows the relationship between n and f(n)? f(n) = 28(0.5)n f(n) = 56(0.5)n−1 f(n) = 56(0.5)n f(n) = 112(0.5)n−1

Answers

Answer:

B. f(n) = 56(0.5)^n-1

Step-by-step explanation:

 First, You have to find out the starting population, if you look at the problem you see the population starts at 56

f(x) = 56

Second, you know that the population goes down 50% each week so it has a decay of 0.5

f(x) = 56(0.5)

 Third,  you need to add the exponent of n to make it exponential.  But, if you just add n then the the population would be 28 on week 1 which is incorrect. To fix that you make the exponent n-1 so when you are on week 1 it doesn't become 28 but it stays on 56, and on week 2 it's 28, ect

f(x) = 56(0.5)^n-1

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is the final option, 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

[(16+4) - 10] - 8

Our first step in this problem, according to the order of operations, is to simplify what is inside the parentheses.  Since there are multiple sets of parentheses, we must simplify the innermost group first.  If we add 16 and 4, we get:

[20 - 10] - 8

Next, we must perform the subtraction inside the parentheses.  This gives us:

10 - 8

Now, we can perform the final operation.  

10 - 8 = 2

Therefore, the correct answer is 2.

the area of a square poster is 27 in.2. Find the length of one side of the poster to the nearest tenth of an inc

Answers

Answer:

5.2 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a be the side of the square poster.

The area of it is:

● A = a^2

● 27 = a^2

● a = √27

● a = √(9×3)

● a = 3√3

● a = 5.19

Round it to the nearest tenth

● a = 5.2 inches

The length of one side of the poster is approximately 5 inches rounded to nearest tenth.

What is rounding of numbers ?

We round numbers because they are easy to deal with and they also retain their value to that place they have been rounded.

According to the given question the area of a square poster is 27inch².

We have to determine the length of one side of the poster.

We know area of a square is (side)².

∴ (side)² = 27.

side = [tex]\sqrt{27}[/tex].

We know [tex]\sqrt{25}[/tex] is 5 and [tex]\sqrt{36}[/tex] is 6 so [tex]\sqrt{27}[/tex] will lie between 5 and 8 and much closer to 5.

If a TV set is bought on the installment plan there is a down payment of $25 and 12 monthly payments of $15 each. The same set may be bought for cash at 12% less than the installment price. The amount saved by making a cash payment is:

Answers

Answer:

Amount saved by making a cash payment is $24.6

Step-by-step explanation:

We start by calculating the amount to be paid if payment was by installments.

We are told that there would be a down payment of $25 and $15 every month for 12 months.

So total installment payment would be;

$25 + 12($15) = $25 + $180 = $205

Now let’s try and figure out the cash payment

For the cash payment, we have 12% less than installment payment.

Kindly note that 12% is same as 12/100 = 0.12

Thus, 12% less payment would be;

205-0.12(205) = 205 - 24.6 = $180.4

Thus, the amount saved if payment was cash would be;

$205 - $180.4 = $24.6

Answer:

a . x = 512

b. x^1/2•y•z^5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Here in this question, we want to find the value of x, given the equation.

x^2/3 = 64

Now, to find the value of x, we shall raising both powers to the reciprocal of 2/3

When we talk of reciprocal, we mean a number such that when we multiply this number by that particular number, our result is 1.

So for 2/3, the reciprocal is 3/2

So let’s raise the power of both sides to 3/2

Thus;

x^2/3(3/2) = 64^3/2

Kindly recall that 2/3(3/2) = 2/3 * 3/2 = 1

Thus ;

x = 64^3/2

So what this mean is that we will find the square root of 64 and cube our answer.

Thus;

x = {√(64)}^3

x = 8^3

x = 512

b. According to laws of indices, kindly note that

b√(a) = a^1/b

Thus;

4 √(x^2•y^4•z^5) = (x^2•y^4•z^5)^1/4

So what we do is to multiply each of the powers in the bracket by 1/4

Thus, we have the following;

x^2(1/4) • y^4(1/4) • z^5(1/4)

= x^1/2•y•z^5/4

where • simply refers to multiplication between the terms

Given: Quadrilateral DEFG is inscribed in circle P. Prove: m∠G+m∠E=180∘

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Let lines be drawn from D to F (line DF) and from F to G (line FG) as shown in the diagram attached.

∠FDE = ∠FGE (angles in the same segment).

Also, ∠EFD = ∠EGD (angles in the same segment)

∠FDE + ∠EFD = ∠FGE + ∠EGD = ∠FGD

Adding ∠FED on both sides gives:

∠FDE + ∠EFD + ∠FED = ∠FGD + ∠FED

But ∠FDE + ∠EFD + ∠FED = 180° (sum of angles in a triangle)

Therefore ∠FGD + ∠FED = 180°

m∠G + m∠E = 180° (sum of opposite angles in a cyclic quadrilateral is 180°)

Answers

Answer:

Real and unequal

Step-by-step explanation:

We are tasked with finding the nature of the roots of the given quadratic equation.

The given quadratic equation is;

x^2 -5x -7

Firstly, we should know that we cannot solve this by factorization, as we will run into problems.

Now the catch is, although we cannot solve by factorization, we can solve by using the quadratic formula.

Now let’s check if our roots are imaginary or real.

For the roots to be imaginary or real, we will work with calculating the value of the expression b^2 -4ac

The value of this would tell us the nature of the roots. While a negative value would tell us the roots are imaginary, a positive value will tell us the roots are real.

So from the question, b = -5( coefficient of x) , while c = -7 and a = 1 ( coefficient of x^2)

Plugging these values into the equation, we have;

-5^2 - 4(1)(-7) = 25 + 28 = 53

This tells us the roots are real

The last issue is to know if the roots are equal or not.

The roots cannot be equal. This is because the term b^2 - 4ac would be in the root and yield a positive and a negative value which cannot give equal answers when added to (-b)

This from the quadratic formula;

x = {-b ± √(b^2-4ac)}/2a
