It the twelvth,85th and the last term of an arithmetic sequence are 38,257 and 395 respectively. Calculate how many terms are there in the sequence ​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

131

Step-by-step explanation:

The n th term of an arithmetic sequence is

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Given a₁₂ = 38 and a₈₅ = 257 , then

a₁ +11d = 38 → (1)

a₁ + 84d = 257 → (2)

Subtract (1) from (2) term by term

73d = 219 ( divide both sides by 73 )

d = 3

Substitute d = 3 into (1)

a₁ + 11(3) = 38

a₁ + 33 = 38 ( subtract 33 from both sides )

a₁ = 5

Thus

5 + 3(n - 1) = 395 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

3(n - 1) = 390 ( divide both sides by 3 )

n - 1 = 130 ( add 1 to both sides )

n = 131

Thus there are 131 terms in the sequence

Answers

A withdrawal is taking money out which is a negative value.

She took $18 out so it would be written as -18.

The answer is:

A number line going from negative 20 to positive 20. A point is at negative 18.

Answer:

Carly withdraws $18 from her bank account.

We assume that Carly has $x in her account. She withdraws $18 from her bank account.

So we have to subtract $18 from $x amount.

Which is $x - 18.

So we are subtracting $18 from her account.

It should be represented by an integer -18.

Now we have to identify the which number line represents -18.

[tex]RS=77, ST=31[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that the entire segment RT is the combined lengths of RS and ST. So:

[tex]RT=RS+ST[/tex]

We know that RT is 108, RS is (9y+5), and ST is (3y+7). Substitute:

[tex]108=(9y+5)+(3y+7)[/tex]

On the right, combine like terms:

[tex]108=(9y+3y)+(5+7)[/tex]

Add:

[tex]108=12y+12[/tex]

Subtract 12 from both sides. The right cancels:

[tex]96=12y[/tex]

Divide both sides by 12:

[tex]y=8[/tex]

So, the value of y is 8.

To find RS and ST, substitute 8 for y. So:

[tex]RS=9y+5[/tex]

Substitute 8 for y:

[tex]RS=9(8)+5[/tex]

Multiply:

[tex]RS=72+5[/tex]

Add:

[tex]RS=77[/tex]

Do the same for ST:

[tex]ST=3y+7[/tex]

Substitute 8 for y:

[tex]ST=3(8)+7[/tex]

Multiply:

[tex]ST=24+7[/tex]

Add:

[tex]ST=31[/tex]

Your answers are

Sam is flying from Columbus, Ohio, to Kralendijk, Bonaire, a distance of 2,488 miles. First, he flies 995 miles to Miami, Florida. He then flies from Miami to San Juan, Puerto Rico, a distance of 1,033 miles. How many miles will he travel flying from Columbus to San Juan? How many more miles does he have to fly to Kralendijk? Enter your answers in the boxes. From Columbus to San Juan, Sam flies miles. He will have more miles to fly.

Answers

Answer:

1) From Columbus to San Juan, Sam flies 2,028 miles

2)Sam will have 460 miles more miles to fly to Kralendijk  

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information are;

The total (flight) distance from Columbus, Ohio to Kralendijk, Bonaire = 2,488 miles

The distance Sam flies from Columbus to Miami, Florida = 995 miles

The distance Sam flies from Miami to San Juan = 1,033 miles

1) Therefore, the number of miles Sam travels flying from Columbus to San Juan is given as follows;

The number of miles Sam will have to travel flying from Columbus to San Juan = (The distance Sam flies from Columbus to Miami, Florida) + (The distance Sam flies from Miami to San Juan)

The number of miles Sam will have to travel flying from Columbus to San Juan = 995 miles +  1,033 miles = 2028 miles

The number of miles Sam will have to travel flying from Columbus to San Juan = 2,028 miles

Therefore, from Columbus to San Juan, Sam flies 2,028 miles

2) The number of more miles Sam has to fly to Kralendijk from Sam Juan is therefore;

The number of more miles Sam has to fly to Kralendijk from Sam Juan = (The total (flight) distance from Columbus, Ohio to Kralendijk, Bonaire) - (The number of miles Sam will have to travel flying from Columbus to San Juan)

The number of more miles Sam has to fly to Kralendijk from Sam Juan = 2,488 miles  - 2,028 miles = 460 miles.

The number of more miles Sam has to fly to Kralendijk from Sam Juan = 460 miles.

Therefore, Sam will have 460 miles more miles to fly to Kralendijk  

From the division of the trip into parts, it is found that:

From Columbus to San Juan, Sam flies 2028 miles.He will have more 460 miles to fly.

--------------------

The total distance of Columbus -> Kralendijk is 2488 miles.The first part, Columbus -> Miami, is 995 miles.The second part, Miami -> San Juan, is 1033 miles.The final part, San Juan -> Kralendijk, is x miles.

--------------------

Since Columbus to Miami is 995 miles and Miami to San Juan is 1033 miles, we have that the distance from Columbus to San Juan, in miles, is of:

[tex]995 + 1033 = 2028[/tex]

Thus:

From Columbus to San Juan, Sam flies 2028 miles.

--------------------

The total distance is 2488 miles.Until San Juan, it is 2028 miles. The final part is San Juan to Kralendijk, x miles, thus:

[tex]2028 + x = 2488[/tex]

[tex]x = 2488 - 2028[/tex]

[tex]x = 460[/tex]

Thus:

He will have more 460 miles to fly.

They said AB=8 and as you can see 8 is represented by two dashes here and if we take in what i said earlier,, that means DC= 8 too. They also said AD= 5. Since 5 is represented by one dash we can easily see that since BC also has one dash,, it is going to be equal to AD which concluded to the answer of 5.

Answers

Answer:

The mean increased, but the median stayed the same

Step-by-step explanation:

hope it help luvs

The mean increased, but the median remained constant If new dogs' weights are added to the data set.

What is the mean of a data set?

The mean of a data set is defined as the ratio of the sum of observations to the total number of observations. It can be referred to as the average of a specific set of data or the arithmetic mean.

The formula for the mean of a given set of data is as follows:

Mean = Sum of Observations/Total number of observations

Given the set of observations as :

16, 34, 44, 20, 50, 19, 30, 54

Arrange the data in ascending order, we get

16, 19, 20, 30, 34, 44, 50, 54

The median of the given data would be (30+34)/2 = 32.

Here, n = 8

⇒ ∑x = Sum of Observations

⇒ ∑x = 267

Mean = ∑x/n

Mean = 267/8

Mean = 33.375

If two more dogs weighing 25 pounds and 45 pounds come to the kennel.

Arrange the given data in ascending order, we get

16, 19, 20, 25, 30, 34, 44, 45, 50, 54

The new median of the data would be (30+34)/2 = 32.

New mean = 337/10 = 33.7

Therefore, the mean increased, but the median remained constant If new dogs' weights are added to the data set.
