Consider the following sequence: -5, -1, 3,...
a. Is this sequence a arithmetic or geometric? How can you tell?

b. Is 119 a term in this sequence? If so, what term is it? If not, why not? Explain completely.​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a. it is arithmentic - this is because for each term there is a constant increase of 4, and the change between each term doesn't change

b. you need to find the nth term, by using the equation difference x n + 0th term: the difference is (+)4 and the 0th term is -9 (-5 is the 1st term, so to go one back we subtract 4 - the inverse operation), so the nth term is 4n -9. Now we do the inverse operation on 119 to see if it's a term (it is a term if it's an integer. So, first we do 119 plus 9 (inverse of - 9) to get 128, then divide it by 4 rather than multiplying. This gives us 32, and that tells us that 119 is the 32nd term of the sequence.

Find the value of x. Round

Answers

Answer:

x = 21.4

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to use the law of sins

sin 42       sin x

--------- = ----------

22              12

12 sin 42 = 22 sin x

12 sin 42 /22 = sin x

sin^-1(12/22 sin 42) = sin^-1(sin x)

Numeric Response 4. In an arithmetic series, the first term is -12 and the 15th term is 40. The sum of the first 15 terms is (Record your answer in the numerical-response section below.)

Your answer should be in.0000​

Answers

In any artihmetic sequence, consecutive terms differ by a fixed constant c. So given the first term a, the second term is a + c, the third terms is a + 2c, and so on, up to the n-th term a + (n - 1)c.

If the 15th term is 40, then

40 = -12 + (15 - 1) c   ==>   c = 52/14 = 26/7

We can then write the n-th term as

-12 + (n - 1) 26/7 = (26n - 110)/7

The sum of the first 15 terms is then

[tex]\displaystyle \sum_{n=1}^{15}\frac{26n-110}7 = \frac{26}7\sum_{n=1}^{15}n - \frac{110}7\sum_{n=1}^{15}n = \boxed{210}[/tex]

Another way to compute the sum: let S denote the sum,

S = -12 - 58/7 - 32/7 + … + 228/7 + 254/7 + 40

Reverse the order of terms:

S* = 40 + 254/7 + 228/7 + … - 32/7 - 58/7 - 12

Notice that adding up terms in the same position gives the same result,

-12 + 40 = 28

-58/7 + 254/7 = 28

-32/7 + 228/7 = 28

so that

S + S* = 2S = 28 + 28 + 28 + … + 28 + 28 + 28

There are 15 terms in the sum, so

2S = 15×28   ==>   S = 15×28/2 = 210

Find the value of the sum 219+226+233+⋯+2018.

Assume that the terms of the sum form an arithmetic series.

Give the exact value as your answer, do not round.

Answers

Answer:

228573

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 219 (first term)

an = 2018 (last term)

Sn->Sum of n terms

Sn=n/2(a + an)         [Where n is no. of terms] -> eq 1

To find number of terms,

an = a + (n-1)d     [d->Common Difference] -> eq 2

d= 226-219 = 7

=> d=7

Substituting in eq 2,

2018 = 219 + (n-1)(7)

1799 = (n-1)(7)

1799 = 7n-7

1799 = 7(n-1)

1799/7 = n-1

257 = n-1

n=258

Substituting values in eq 1,

Sn = 258/2(219+2018)

    = 129(2237)

    = 228573

The equation your teacher has given you is an identity. We can prove this by transforming one side into the other. I'll transform the right hand side (RHS) into the left hand side (LHS).

This means I'll keep the LHS the same for each line. I'll only change the RHS. The goal is to get the same thing on both sides (I could go the other way around but I find this pathway is easier).

[tex]\tan^4(\theta)+\sec^2(\theta) = \sec^4(\theta)-\tan^2(\theta)\\\\\tan^4(\theta)+\sec^2(\theta) = \left(\sec^2(\theta)\right)^2-\tan^2(\theta)\\\\\tan^4(\theta)+\sec^2(\theta) = \left(\tan^2(\theta)+1\right)^2-\tan^2(\theta) \ \text{ ... see note 1}\\\\\tan^4(\theta)+\sec^2(\theta) = \tan^4(\theta)+2\tan^2(\theta)+1-\tan^2(\theta)\\\\[/tex]

[tex]\tan^4(\theta)+\sec^2(\theta) = \tan^4(\theta)+\tan^2(\theta)+1\\\\\tan^4(\theta)+\sec^2(\theta) = \tan^4(\theta)+\sec^2(\theta)-1+1 \ \text{ ... see note 2}\\\\\tan^4(\theta)+\sec^2(\theta) = \tan^4(\theta)+\sec^2(\theta) \ \ \Large \checkmark\\\\[/tex]

note1: I use the identity [tex]\tan^2(\theta)+1 = \sec^2(\theta)[/tex] which is derived from the pythagorean trig identity [tex]\sin^2(\theta)+\cos^2(\theta) = 1[/tex]note2: based on the previous note, we can say [tex]\tan^2(\theta) = \sec^2(\theta)-1[/tex]

So because we've arrived at the same thing on both sides, the original equation is an identity. It always true no matter what theta value you plug in, as long as theta is in the domain. So something like theta = pi/2 won't work because tan(pi/2) = undefined and sec(pi/2) = undefined. It's based on how cos(pi/2) = 0 and this value is in the denominator. Dividing by zero is undefined.

Consequently, this means all solutions to cos(theta) = 0 will be excluded from the domain. Everything else works.

Answer:

The radius of the circle if the circumference is 44 cm will be 7 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

➝ Circumference of the circle = 44 cm

➔ Circumference = 2πr [For finding radius]

Finding the radius:-

➜ Let radius be r.

➜ 44 = 2 × 22/7 × r

➜ Multiply 2 × 22/7

➜ 44 = 44/7 × r

➜ Taking 7 to LHS.

➜ 44 × 7 = 44 × r

➜ 308 = 44 × r

➜ Taking 44 to LHS.

➜ 308/44 = r

➜ 308/44 = 7

Answer:

84°

Step-by-step explanation:

angles in a quadrilateral add to 360°. 360-(114+76)=5x =170°. 170°/5 = 32°. x=32°

angles on a straight line add to 180°.

2x = 64°. 180-64=116°. y=116°.

y-x = 116-32 = 84°

Answer:

[tex]78[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The inner angles of a quadrilateral all add up to 360. This means we can write the following

[tex]114 + 76 + 3x + 2x = 360\\190 + 5x = 360\\5x = 170\\x = 34[/tex]

Now that we have x we can find y. Notice that y and 2x are on the same line. Any line cutting another straight line will create two angles that add up to 180.

Therefore we can write

[tex]2x + y = 180\\2(34) + y = 180\\y = 112[/tex]

Finally computing y - x

[tex]y - x = 112 - 34 = 78[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation :

First step:

Open the bracket by multiplying values in the bracket by 2

2/5m - 4/5 + 3/5

-4/5 + 3/5 = (-4 + 3) / 5 = - 1 / 5

Hence,

2/5m - 4/5 + 3/5 = 2/5m - 1/5

= 2/5m - 1/5

In a tournament, a professional golfer knows that she is 200 yards from the hole. A spectator is watching her play and is 140 yards away from the golfer. If the spectator has an angle of 110° between the golfer and the hole, what is the angle that the golfer has between the spectator and the hole? 70.0° 41.1° 28.9° 19.9°

Answers

Answer:

28.9°

Step-by-step explanation:

The golfer, hole and spectator form a triangle. Let ABC be the triangle and let the angle the spectator has between the golfer and the hole be A = 110°, the angle the golfer has between the spectator and the hole be B and the angle the hole has between the golfer and the spectator be C. Let the angle between the golfer and the hole be a = 200 yards, the distance between the spectator and the hole be b and the distance between the golfer and the spectator be c = 140 yards,

Using the sine rule for the triangle, we find angle C.

So, a/sinA = b/SinB = c/SinC

So, a/sinA = c/sinC

sinC = csinA/a

C = sin⁻¹(csinA/a)

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

C = sin⁻¹(csinA/a)

C = sin⁻¹( 140sin110°/200)

C = sin⁻¹( 7 × 0.9397/10)

C = sin⁻¹(6.5778/10)

C = sin⁻¹(0.65778)

C = 41.13°

We know that A + B + C = 180°  (sum of angles in a triangle)

And since the angle the golfer has between the spectator and the hole be B

So, B = 180° - (A + C)

B = 180° - (110° + 41.13°)

B = 180° - 151.13°

B = 28.87°

B ≅ 28.9°

The angle that the golfer has between the spectator and the hole is 28.9°.

Angel between spectator and holes:

Using the law of sines:

BC/SinΔBAC=AB/SinΔACB

Hence,

200/Sin110°=140/SinΔACB

ΔACB=41.1°

Thus,

ΔABC=180°-ΔBAC-ΔACB

ΔABC= 180° - (110° + 41.1°)

ΔABC= 180° - 151.1°

ΔABC= 28.9°

Inconclusion the angle that the golfer has between the spectator and the hole is 28.9°.
