The sum of first four terms is a G.P. is 30 and that of the last four terms is 960. if its first term is 2 find the common ratio .

Answers

Answer 1

If the sum of first four terms in a G.P. is 30 and that of the last four terms is 960, then the sum of the first 8 terms is 990

We also know that a = 2

sum of first 4 terms

= 2(r^4 - 1)(r-1) = 30

r^4 - 1 = 15r - 15

r^4 - 15r + 14 = 0

r = 1 works for the equation , but r = 1 would make all the terms of the

GP the same, so clearly not a solution

r^4 - 15r + 14 = 0 , a bit of trial and error ....

(r-1)(r - 2)(r^2 + 3r + 7) = 0

so r = 2 or r = not real

check: sum(4) = 2(2^4 - 1)/(2-1) = 30 , as needed

so r = 2 , BUT it does not work for sum(8)

sum(8) = 2(2^8 - 1)(2-1) = 510 , not 990 as necessary according to your second part of the question.

check your question.

How many permutations are there of the letters APPLE, if the arrangement must begin with a
vowel and end with a consonant?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]18[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by considering the two "[tex]\verb!P![/tex]"'s as being different from one another. That way, all five letters in this word would be distinct. With this assumption, the number of arrangements would be [tex]\left(\genfrac{}{}{0}{}{2}{1}\right) = 2[/tex] times that of the actual value.

Start by fixing the first and the last letter since they come with special requirements.

There are [tex]2[/tex] choices for the first letter (the vowel: [tex]\verb!A![/tex] and [tex]\verb!E![/tex].)

Under the assumption that the two "[tex]\verb!P![/tex]"'s are distinct, there would be [tex]3[/tex] choices for the last letter ([tex]\verb!L![/tex] and the two

After choosing the first and the last letters, there would be [tex](5 - 1 - 1) = 3[/tex] choices for the second letter, [tex](3 - 1) = 2[/tex] choices for the third, and [tex](2 - 1) = 1[/tex] for the fourth.

Thus, under the assumption that the two "[tex]\verb!P![/tex]"'s are distinct, there would be [tex](2 \times 3) \times (3 \times 2 \times 1) = 36[/tex] ways to choose the new word. Since this assumption doubles the number of arrangements, dividing the [tex]36[/tex] by [tex]\left(\genfrac{}{}{0}{}{2}{1}\right) = 2[/tex] would give the actual number of arrangements:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\frac{36}{\genfrac{(}{)}{0}{}{2}{1}} = \frac{36}{2} = 18\end{aligned}[/tex].

[tex]\begin{aligned}& 1 && \verb!APPEL!\\& 2 && \verb!APLEP!\\& 3 && \verb!APEPL!\\& 4 && \verb!APELP!\\& 5 && \verb!ALPEP!\\& 6 && \verb!ALEPP!\\& 7 && \verb!AEPPL!\\& 8 && \verb!AEPLP!\\& 9 && \verb!AELPP!\\& 10 && \verb!EAPPL!\\& 11 && \verb!EAPLP!\\& 12 && \verb!EALPP!\\& 13 && \verb!EPAPL!\\& 14 && \verb!EPALP!\\& 15 && \verb!EPPAL!\\& 16 && \verb!EPLAP!\\& 17 && \verb!ELAPP!\\& 18 && \verb!ELPAP!\end{aligned}[/tex].

1. Which value is the closest to 1/9 • 24/25 (fractions)

a. 0
b. 0.5
c. 1
d. 21/20 (fraction)

Explain your answer:

Answers

Answer:

Option A: 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the multiplication of fractions, [tex]\huge\mathsf{\frac{1}{9} \:\times\frac{24}{25}}[/tex]:

Simply multiply the numerators (together), as well as the denominators.

In other words:

[tex]\huge\mathsf{\frac{1}{9} \:\times\frac{24}{25}\:=\frac{1\:\times\:24}{9\:\times\:25}\:=\:\frac{24}{225}}[/tex]

Since 24 and 225 do not have common multiples, then we cannot simplify the fraction into its lowest terms.

Next, in order to find out which is the closest value to the product, [tex]\huge\mathsf{\frac{24}{225}}[/tex], divide the numerator by the denominator, which gives you the following quotient:

[tex]\huge\mathsf{\frac{24}{225}\:=\:24\:\div\:225\:=\:0.1067}[/tex] or 0.11.

We must compare this quotient with the other options:

Option A) 0: This is a possible answer, since rounding 0.11 to the nearest ones (whole number) is 0.

Option B) 0.5:  Unlikely a valid answer, since the digit on the hundreths place is 0.11, and rounding it up to the nearest tenths will become 0.1.

Option C) 1: Definitely not a valid answer, according to the explanations provided in Options A and B.

For Option D) [tex]\huge\mathsf{\frac{21}{20}}[/tex] , we need to find its equivalent decimal form by dividing its numerator by the denominator:  [tex]\huge\mathsf{\frac{21}{20}\:=\:21\:\div\:20\:=\:1.05}[/tex]. Hence, it is also not a valid answer, according to the explanations provided in Options A and B.

Therefore, the closest value to  [tex]\huge\mathsf{\frac{24}{225}\:=\:0.11}[/tex] is Option A) 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

6. Matrix addition is defined for corresponding terms, so the usual associative and commutative properties of addition apply. That is, ...

  A₁₁ +B₁₁ = (A+B)₁₁ . . . . . and the same for other corresponding terms

The attachment shows the sums are equal. (It is convenient to let a spreadsheet do the tedious repetitive work.)

7. To find 'a' and 'b', we only need to consider the matrix elements that involve those variables.

element 11: 5 = b +2   ⇒   b = 3

element 21: a = 2 +2a   ⇒   a = -2   (add -a-2 to both sides to get this)

__

8.  There are issues with this equation. It is incomplete and inconsistent.

element 11: p = p+4   ⇒   no solution

element 21: r = 0 +(2r  s)   ⇔   missing math symbol; problem is incomplete

element 12: q = 6 + (p +q)   ⇒   p = -6; q = anything

element 22: s = 2s +2   ⇒   s = -2   (add -s-2 to both sides)

When a problem has issues of the kind that show up in question 8, I suggest that you have your teacher show you how to work the problem. If they're paying attention, they will discover the issues for themselves.

They are doing the calculations, we can say that the alternatives are:

A) True

B) False

C) False

D) False

E) True

For this exercise, the equation should be used:

[tex]A(t)=-1.4t+96[/tex]

So analyzing the first given statement we will have to:

[tex]A(t)=-1.4t+96\\t=10\\A(t)=-14+96=82[/tex]

Based on the calculations, this statement is true, for the second statement we will have:

[tex]A(t)=-1.4t+96\\t=15\\A(t)=-21+96=75[/tex]

From the calculations this statement is false, so for the alternative we will have:

[tex]A(t)=-1.4t+96\\t=55\\A(t)=-77+96=19[/tex]

From the calculations this statement is false, so for the alternative we will have:

[tex]A(t)=-1.4t+96\\t=0\\A(t)=96[/tex]

Based on the calculations, this statement is true.
