Answer 1

Answer:

b

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The sum of the first ten terms of the sequence is -59,048. The correct option is C.-59,048

Here is the correct question:

What is the sum of the first ten terms of the sequence 4, -12, 36, -108...

From the question,

The given sequence is 4,-12, 36, -108...

This is a geometric progression since it has a common ratio.

The common ratio, r = -3

Recall that,

Given a geometric progression, the common ratio, r is given as

[tex]r = \frac{T_{2} }{T_{1}} = \frac{T_{3} }{T_{2}} =\frac{T_{4} }{T_{3}} = ...[/tex]

From the given sequence,

[tex]T_{1} = 4[/tex]

[tex]T_{2} = -12[/tex]

[tex]T_{3} = 36[/tex]

[tex]T_{4} = -108[/tex]

∴ [tex]r = \frac{-12 }{4} = \frac{36}{-12} =\frac{-108} {36} = -3[/tex]

Therefore, the sequence is a geometric progression with a common ratio of 3

Now, to determine the sum of the first ten terms of the sequence,

From the formula

[tex]S_{n} = \frac{a(1-r^{n}) }{1-r}[/tex]

Where [tex]S_{n}[/tex] is the sum of n terms

[tex]a[/tex] is the first term

[tex]r[/tex] is the common ratio

and [tex]n[/tex] is the number of terms in the series

From the question

[tex]a = 4[/tex]

[tex]r = -3[/tex]

and [tex]n = 10[/tex] (Since, we are to determine the sum of the first 10 terms)

Now, put the parameters into the formula

[tex]S_{n} = \frac{a(1-r^{n}) }{1-r}[/tex]

We get

[tex]S_{10} = \frac{4(1-(-3)^{10}) }{1-(-3)}[/tex]

[tex]S_{10} = \frac{4(1-59049) }{1+3}[/tex]

[tex]S_{10} = \frac{4(-59048) }{4}[/tex]

[tex]S_{10} = \frac{-236192 }{4}[/tex]

[tex]S_{10} = -59048[/tex]

Hence, the sum of the first ten terms of the sequence is -59,048. The correct option is C.-59,048

According to the American music industry, the length of a song is normally distributed with a mean of 240 seconds and standard deviation thirty seconds. Suppose a random sample of fifteen songs is selected from the morning program. what is the probability that the length of the song is between 225 and 260 seconds long?​

Answers

Answer:

96.89%

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the standard error:

s = σ/√n

s = 30 / √15

s = 7.75

Find the z-scores:

z = (x − μ) / s

z₁ = (225 − 240) / 7.75

z₁ = -1.94

z₂ = (260 − 240) / 7.75

z₂ = 2.58

Find the probability.

P(-1.94 < Z < 2.58) = P(Z<2.58) − P(Z<-1.94)

P(-1.94 < Z < 2.58) = 0.9951 − 0.0262

P(-1.94 < Z < 2.58) = 0.9689

9x^2 - 16 = (px+t)(px-t) both p and t are constants. Which of the following could be the value of p

Answers

Answer:

p = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

9x² - 16 ← is a difference of squares and factors in general as

a² - b² = (a + b)(a - b)

Thus

9x² - 16

= (3x)² - 4²

= (3x + 4)(3x - 4)

Compare with (px + t)(px - t)

then p = 3

The area of a square is given by A=s2, where s is the length of each side of the square. If the area of a square room is 81 square meters, what is the length of one side of the room in meters?

Answers

Answer:  The length of one side is 9m.

Step-by-step explanation:

If area is 81 square meters, that means A = 81 m^2.

Since A = s^2, we can substitute s^2 for A.  Then

(s^2) = 81 m^2

Take the square root of both sides to solve for s:

(s^2)^(1/2) = (81 m^2)^(1/2)

s = 9 m
