Answer: Choice C.  an = 8 + 9(n-1)

===========================================

Work Shown:

a1 = 8 is the first term

a7 = 62 is the seventh term

an = a1+d(n-1) = nth term of arithmetic sequence

a7 = a1+d(7-1) ... plug in n = 7; solve for d

62 = 8+d(6)

62 = 6d+8

6d+8 = 62

6d = 62-8

6d = 54

d = 54/6

d = 9 is the common difference

an = a1 + d(n-1)

an = 8 + 9(n-1) is the nth term of this arithmetic sequence

Answer:

Definitely 3 hmmm..

Step-by-step explanation:

6/2=3 so 9/z=3

tfo 9/3=3

The missing variables have values of 12, 5, 9, and 3, respectively, for x, y, w and z.

Given that there are two similar polygons with dimension:

Larger polygon = 9, 6, w, 15, x.

Smaller polygon = z, 2, 3, y, 4.

We need to find the missing value of the side length.

According to the definition of the similar polygons, the corresponding sides shows proportionality.

9/z = 6/2 = w/3 = 15/y = x/4

Solving for each variable =

i) Solve for z:

9/z = 6/2

Cross-multiplying:

6z = 9 × 2

6z = 18

Dividing both sides by 6:

z = 18/6

z = 3

ii) Solve for w:

6/2 = w/3

Cross-multiplying:

2w = 6 × 3

2w = 18

Dividing both sides by 2:

w = 18/2

w = 9

iii) Solve for y:

6/2 = 15/y

Cross-multiplying:

6y = 30

Dividing both sides by 6:

y = 5

iv) Solve for x:

6/2 = x/4

Cross-multiplying:

2x = 24

Dividing both sides by 2:

x = 12

Hence the values of the missing variables are x = 12, y = 5, w = 9 and z = 3.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We will develop a test to compare the mean of two population

Population 1.

population mean μ₀₁  = 25  ; Sample variance 27 ; and sample size n = 45

Population 2.

population mean μ₀₂  = 23 ; Sample variance 7,56; and sample size n = 36

As our major interest is to investigate if the new machine uses less time for the same production, the test will be a one tail test ( left test)

Test Hypothesis        

Null Hypothesis                   H₀     ⇒         μ₀₂ -  μ₀₁  = 0    

Alternative Hypothesis       Hₐ     ⇒         μ₀₂ -  μ₀₁ < 0

We will use  confidence of 90 %, therefore α = 10 %   α = 0,1

α  = 0,1    

We get    z score of z = 1,28   or   z = - 1,28   ( left tail)

And  compute z(s)  = ( μ₀₂ -  μ₀₁ ) /√ (s₁)²/n₁   + (s₂)²/n₂

z(s) = -  2 / √(729/45) + (57,15/36)

z(s) = - 2 / √16,2  + 1,59

z(s) =  - 2 / 4,2178

z(s) =  - 0,4742

As |z(s)|  < |z(c)|

We are in the acceptance region. If we lok at 90 % as Confidencial Interval α = 0,1 and  α/2 =  0,05 in this case

₀,₉CI (  μ₀₂ -  μ₀₁)  =  [  -2  ± z(0,05)√  (s₁)²/n₁   + (s₂)²/n₂ )

From z Table  z ( 0,05 )   ⇒ z score   z = 1,64

And √  (s₁)²/n₁   + (s₂)²/n₂ ) =  √(729/45) + (57,15/36)  =  4,2178

₀,₉CI (  μ₀₂ -  μ₀₁)  = [ -2  ± 1,64 *4,2178]

₀,₉CI (  μ₀₂ -  μ₀₁)  = (  - 8,917 ;  4,917 )

We can see that 0 is a possible value in the ₀,₉CI (  μ₀₂ -  μ₀₁) so again we cannot reject H₀. Then as we are not quite sure about the strengths of the new machine over the old one  we should not recomend to purchase the new machine

Answer: x = 5, x = -7/2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x² - 3x - 35 = 0

Step 1: Find two values whose product = 2(-35) and sum = -3:  -10 & 7

Step 2: Replace the b-value of -3x with  -10x + 7x:

2x² - 10x   + 7x - 35 = 0

Step 3: Factor the first two terms and the second two terms:

2x(x - 5)  +7(x - 5) = 0

Step 4: Write the factored form:

Notice that the parenthesis are identical.  This is one of the factors. The outside values are the other factor:

Parenthesis: (x - 5)

Outside: (2x + 7)

Factored form: (x - 5)(2x + 7) = 0

Step 5: Set each factor each to zero and solve for x:

x - 5 = 0             2x + 7 = 0

   x - 5                      [tex]x=-\dfrac{7}{2}[/tex]

The solutions of the quadratic equation given as 2x² - 3x - 35 = 0 are x=5 and x =-3.5.

Given that:

2x² - 3x - 35 = 0

This is a quadratic equation.

The solution of the quadratic equation of the form ax² + bx + c = 0 can be found using the quadratic formula:

[tex]x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

From the given equation:

a = 2

b = -3

c = -35

Substitute to the quadratic formula.

Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Vincent’s construction method produces a hexagon that may not be equilateral and may not be equiangular. The correct option is D.

A regular polygon is a polygon that is equiangular and equilateral. Therefore, the measure of all the internal angles and the measure of all the sides of the polygon are equal to each other.

Given that Vincent wants to construct a regular hexagon inscribed in a circle. He draws a circle on a piece of paper. He then folds the paper circle three times to create three folds representing the diameters of the circle.

Now as it can be seen as the paper is folded as shown in the below image but it does not create a hexagon that is equilateral and equiangular.

Hence, Vincent’s construction method produces a hexagon that may not be equilateral and may not be equiangular.

2. B

3. A

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1:

The pair of <JKL and <LKM can be referred to as linear pairs. They are two adjacent angles that are formed from the intersecting of two lines.

Question 2:

Given that <KLM = x°

<KML = 50°

<JKL = (2x - 15)°

According to the exterior angle theorem, exterior ∠ JKL = <KLM + KML.

2x - 15 = x + 50

Solve for x

2x - x = 15 + 50

x = 65

Therefore, <KLM = 65°

QUESTION 3:

<JKL = 2x - 15

Plug in the value of x

<JKL = 2(65) - 15

= 130 - 15

<JKL = 115°

=====================================================

Work Shown:

A = mass, in kg, of 1 apple

B = mass, in kg, of 1 empty basket

10A = mass of 10 apples

10A+B = mass of 10 apples and basket = 0.5

35A = mass of 35 apples

35A + B = mass of 35 apples and basket = 1.05

The system of equations we have is

[tex]\begin{cases}10A+B = 0.5\\35A+B = 1.05\end{cases}[/tex]

There are a number of ways to solve. As the top left corner of your paper indicates, we can use a matrix to solve. Either using row reduction or matrix inverse math.

We could also use elimination which I find easiest in this case. I'll use that method. Subtract the equations straight down. Note how the B terms become B-B = 0B = 0 which go away. The A terms become 10A-35A = -25A, and the terms on the right hand side become 0.5-1.05 = -0.55

--------

We're left with the equation

-25A = -0.55

Divide both sides by -25 to isolate A

A = -0.55/(-25)

A = 0.022

The mass of one apple is 0.022 kg

--------

Use this value of A to find B

10A + B = 0.5

10*0.022 + B = 0.5

0.22 + B = 0.5

B = 0.5 - 0.22

B = 0.28

Or we could use the other equation to solve for B

35A + B = 1.05

35(0.022) + B = 1.05

0.77 + B = 1.05

B = 1.05 - 0.77

B = 0.28

Either way, the empty basket's mass is 0.28 kg

The mean is more useful in this case because it would give an average value of the accidents for example 3 accidents per year but the median would give the middle value which may be 5  or greater or much lesser than the average. It would not give an approximate value of occurrences.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean is the averaage of all the values.

Median is the value of the data which gives an estimate of the middle value. Middle values can be different than the average values.

The mean is

1) rigorously defined by a mathematical formula.

2) based on all the observations of the data

3) affected by extreme values

The meadian is

1) computed for open end classes like income etc.

2) not rigorously defined

3) is located when the values are not capable of quantitative measurment.

4) is not affected by extreme values.

The mean is more useful in this case because it would give an average value of the accidents for example 3 accidents per year but the median would give the middle value which may be 5  or greater or much lesser than the average. It would not give an approximate value of occurrences.
