3. If 3, x, y, 18, are in arithmetic progression, (A, P) find the value of x and y
b) the sum of the second and third terms of a geometric progression is six times the fourth term, find the two possible values of common ratio
i) If the seconds term is 8 and the common ration is positive, find the first six terms. 10mrks​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Below in bold

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence is:

3, x, y, 18

If this is an A P then

x - 3 = y - x  

2x - y = 3      (A)  and

y - x = 18 - y

2y - x = 18      (B)

Multiply  (A) by 2:

4x - 2y = 6    (C)

Adding B and C:

3x = 24

x = 8.

and

2y - 8 = 18

2y = 26

y = 13.

So x = 8 and y = 13.

b)   ar + ar^2 = 6ar^3  where a = first term and r = common ratio

Divide by a:

r + r^2 = 6r^3

6r^3 - r^2 - r = 0

r(6r^2 - r - 1) = 0

r(3r  + 1)(2r  - 1) = 0

So the 2 possible values of r

= -1/3 and 1/2.

i) The common ratio is positive so it must be 1/2.

Second term ar = 8

1/2 a = 8

a = 16.

So the first 6 terms are:

16, 8, 4, 2, 1, 1/2.

find the length of a diagonal of a square whose side is 2 cm​

Answers

Answer:

2√2 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to be understood :

Diagonal of a square = Side length√2

Deriving the formula :

Apply Pythagorean Theorem by taking the side lengths as altitudes and the diagonal as a hypotenuseside length² + side length² = hypotenuse²2(side length)² = hypotenuse²hypotenuse = side length√2

Solving for the length of the diagonal :

diagonal = 2√2 cm
Side=a=2cm

Length of diagonal

A function is shown below.
f(x) = 8x - 11

What value of x makes f(x) = 21?

Answers

f(x)=8x-11
f(21)
x=21
f(21)=8(21)-11
f(21)=168-11
f(21)=157

The correct value in this function is f(21) = 157

This question is related to substitution of values. To solve it, just: change x by the indicated value and thus calculate normally.

– The given function being f(x) = 8x - 11, replace X by 21:

f(x) = 8x - 11

f(21) = 8 . 21 - 11

– Finally, just calculate the expression now, like this, multiplying and subtracting the numbers:

f(21) = 8 . 21 - 11

f(21) = 168 - 11

f(21) = 157

Therefore, the correct value of this function will be f(21) = 157

In circle O, AD and BE are diameters. The measure of arc AB is 55° and the
measure of arc CD is 25º.
What is the measure of BC?
80
110
90
100

Answers

100. the diameter means the other half, so arc AD is 180 on both sides. so that means we can do 180-(25+55), which equals 100

Answer:

Arc AB = 55°

Angle AOB = 55° ( Centre angle is equal to respective arc )

Arc CD = 25°

Angle COD = 25° ( Centre angle is equal to respective arc )

Angle AOB + Angle BOC + Angle COD = 180° ( AD is the diameter)

55° + Angle BOC + 25° = 180°

Angle BOC + 80° = 180°

Angle BOC = 100°

From the top of a 180-foot tall lighthouse, the angle of
depression to a ship in the ocean is 27º. How far is the
ship from the base of the lighthouse?
inch tall me

Answers

Reading the given Question , we get to know that 180 ft. is the height of lighthouse and 27° is the angle of depression from top of it to a ship in the ocean

(Figure is attached )

We know , Angle Of depression = Angle Of elevation

For finding base length from the ship to base of lighthouse ,

Tanθ = perpendicular/base

Tan 27° = 180ft/base

Base = 180/0.5095 (Value of tan 27° is 0.5095)

Base = 353.28 ft.

Base = 4239.36 inches

James ordered a $10.20 meal and Mark ordered a $9.50 meal. If the sales tax is 7% and they leave a 15% tip on the price of the meal including tax, then what was the tota!?

Answers

Answer:

The total cost of the meal is $24.24

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Combine the two meal costs.

10.20 + 9.50 = 19.70

Sales tax is 7%, so multiply 19.70 by 0.07 then add the sum to 19.70

19.70 * 0.07 = 1.379

19.70 + 1.379 = 21.079

They leave a 15% tip on the meal, including tax, so take 15% of 21.079 or 21.079 * 0.15, which equals 3.16185

Add 3.16185 to 21.079

This equals 24.24085

What is a normal distribution?

The Gaussian Distribution is another name for it. The most significant continuous probability distribution is this one. Because the curve resembles a bell, it is also known as a bell curve.

The z-score is a statistical evaluation of a value's correlation to the mean of a collection of values, expressed in terms of standard deviation.

The mean is 95 and the standard deviation is 14. Then the probability when x > 120 will be

The z-score will be

z = (120 - 95)/ 14

z = 1.7857

Then the probability will be

P(x > 120) = P(z > 1.7857)

P(x > 120) = 1 - P(x<120)

P(x > 120) = 1 - 0.96293

P(x > 120) = 0.0367

What is a dilation?

A dilation is a type of transformation that resizes an object.

To apply a dilation ( find the coordinates of a point after a dilation ) you must multiply the x and y values of the coordinates by the scale factor

Applying the dilation rule

We want to find the coordinate of vertex B after a dilation with a scale factor of 2. To do so we multiply the x and y value of vertex b by the scale factor or 2

Current coordinates of the triangle :

A(1,1) B(1,3)C(3,1)

Coordinates after dilation

A' = (1,1) ===> (1×2,1×2) ===> (2,2)

B' = (1,3) ===> (1×2,3×2) ===> (2,6)

C' = (3,1) ===> (3×2,1×2) ===> (6,2)

The coordinate of the vertex B after the dilation is (2,6)
