Answer:
11 terms.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the arithmetic sequence:
17, 13, 9, ...
And we want to find the number of terms required such that the sum is -33.
Recall that the sum of an arithmetic series is given by:
[tex]\displaystyle S = \frac{k}{2}\left( a + x_k\right)[/tex]
Where k is the number of terms, a is the first term, and x_k is the last term.
The desired sum is -33. The first term is 17 as well. Thus:
[tex]\displaystyle (-33) = \frac{k}{2} \left( (17) +x_k\right)[/tex]
Simplify:
[tex]-66 = k(17 + x_k)[/tex]
We can write a direct formula to find the last term x_k. The direct formula of an arithmetic sequence has the form:
[tex]x_ n = a + d(n-1)[/tex]
Where a is the initial term and d is the common difference.
The initial term is 17 and the common difference is -4. Hence:
[tex]\displaystyle x_n = 17 - 4(n-1)[/tex]
Then the last term is given by:
[tex]x_k = 17 - 4(k-1)[/tex]
Substitute:
[tex]\displaystyle -66 = k\left( 17 + \left( 17 - 4(k-1)\right)\right)[/tex]
Solve for k:
[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} -66 &= k(17 + (17 - 4k + 4)) \\ -66 &= k(38 -4k) \\ -66 &= -4k^2 + 38k \\ 4k^2 -38k -66 &= 0 \\ 2k^2 - 19k -33 &= 0 \\ (k-11)(2k+3) &= 0 \\ k-11&= 0 \text{ or } 2k+3 = 0 \\ \\ k &= 11 \text{ or } k = -\frac{3}{2}\end{aligned}[/tex]
Since we cannot have a negative amount of terms, we can ignore the second solution.
Therefore, the given sequence must have 11 terms such that it sums to -33.

find the exact length of side a.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I think the best way to do this is to find B using the cos law. The two other angles are equal
b = 3sqrt(3)
a = 3
c = 3
b^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab*cos(B)
(3sqrt(3)^2 = 3^2 + 3^2 - 2*3*3 * cos(B)
27 = 9 + 9 - 18*cos(B)
27 = 18 - 18*cos(B)
9 = - 18*cos(B)
9/-18 = cos(B)
-1/2 = cos(B)
B = cos-1(-1/2)
B = 120
<A + <C + 120 = 180
<A = <C
2A + 120 = 180
2A = 60
A = 30
The question says angle A so that's what I did.
A white-tailed deer can sprint at speeds up to 30 miles per hour. American bison can run at speeds up to 3,520 feet per minute. Which animal is faster and by how many miles per hour? There are 5,280 feet in one mile. A deer is 10 miles per hour faster than a bison.
3520/5280 = 2/3 of a mile per minute.
2/3 x 60 minutes per hour = 40 miles per hour.
40-30 = 10
Bison runs 40 miles per hour
The bison runs 10 miles an hour faster than the deer
Answer:
American bison is faster than the white-tailed deer by 10 more miles per hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
In 1 hour there are 60 minutes.
=> 3520 feet = 1 minute
=> 60 minutes = 3520 x 60
=> 211200 feet = 60 minutes
So, 211200 feet can be converted in miles.
=> 1 mile = 5280 feet
=> 211200 feet = x miles
=> x = 211200 / 5280
=> x = 40 miles per hour.
So, a white-tailed deer can run up to 30 miles per hour.
an American bison can run up to 40 miles per hour.
American bison runs 10 more miles per hour than a white-tailed deer.

jumbo fancy store wants to place an order for candles , if one box contains 144 candles, how many boxes must the shop order for a stock of 100 080 candles?
Answer: The shop must order 695 boxes
Step-by-step explanation:
To find how many boxes that holds 100,080 candles, first divide the amount of candles that is needed to the measured amount of candles that is in a box.
144 candles= 1 box
100,080= ? Box(es)
So:
100,080 ÷ 144= 695 boxes

A can do a piece of work in 10 days and B in 12 days.
With the help of C they can finish the work in 4 days. How
long will C take to do it alone?
a) 12 days b) 15 days c) 18 days d) 20 days
Answer:
B. 15 days
Step-by-step explanation:
A=10=1/10 of the job
B=12=1/12 of the job
A+B+C=4=1/4 of the job
A+B
=1/10 + 1/12
=10+12/120
=22/120
=11/60
(A+B+C) - (A+B)
=1/4 - 11/60
=5 - 11/60
=4/60
=1/15
It would take C alone 15 days to finish the job
If you invest $600 at 5% interest compounded continuously, how much would you make after 6 years?
Answer:
809.915$
Step-by-step explanation:
Amount of money = Principal x e^(rate x year)
= 600 x e^(0.05 x 6)
= 809.915$
Answer:
$809.92
Step-by-step explanation:
(see attached for reference)
Recall that the formula for compound interest (compounded continuously) is
A = P e^(rt)
where,
A = final amount (we are asked to find this)
P = principal = given as $600
r = interest rate = 5% = 0.05
t = time = 6 years
e = 2.71828 (mathematical constant)
Substituting the known values into the equation:
A = P e^(rt)
= 600 e^(0.05 x 6)
= 600 (2.71828)^(0.30)
= $809.92

LN = 7 + 10 = 17
The value of the line segment LN is 17.
What is a line segment?A line segment in geometry is a section of a line that has two clearly defined endpoints and contains every point on the line that lies within its confines.
Given that point, M is the online segment LN. Given LM=7 and MN=10,
The value of the line segment will be calculated as:-
Point M is on the line segment LN.
LM = 7
MN = 10
LN = LM + MN
LN = 7 + 10 = 17

From the graph, determine the equation of the line. On the graph (3,10) and (0,4)
Answer:
y = 2x+4
Step-by-step explanation:
The y intercept is 4
We can find the slope
m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (4-10)/(0-3)
= -6/-3
= 2
The slope intercept form is
y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
y = 2x+4
-3x+2y=6 Find the intercepts. Show your work.
Answer:
The x-intercept is (-2,0)
The y-intercept is (0,3)
Step-by-step explanation:
An x-intercept is the point when the graph crosses the x-axis. In other words, the y-coordinate of the x-intercept is 0 (since it lays on the x-axis). In other words, to solve for the x-intercept(s), plug in 0 for y and solve for x:
[tex]-3x+2y=6\\-3x+2(0)=6\\-3x=6\\x=-2[/tex]
So, the x-intercept is (-2,0).
Likewise, the y-intercept is the point when the graph crosses the y-axis. Because it's on the y-axis, the x-coordinate value would be 0. Thus, to find the y-intercept, plug in 0 for x and solve for y:
[tex]-3x+2y=6\\-3(0)+2y=6\\2y=6\\y=3[/tex]
Thus, the y-intercept is (0,3).

Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]2x+5=8x[/tex]
[tex]\sf Subtract \ 8x \ from \ both \ sides.[/tex]
[tex]2x+5-8x=8x-8x[/tex]
[tex]-6x+5=0[/tex]
[tex]\sf Subtract \ 5 \ from \ both \ sides.[/tex]
[tex]-6x+5-5=0-5[/tex]
[tex]-6x=-5[/tex]
[tex]\sf Divide \ both \ sides \ by \ -6.[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{-6x}{-6} =\frac{-5}{-6}[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle x =\frac{5}{6}[/tex]
[tex]\sf Evaluate \ 12x.[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle 12 \cdot \frac{5}{6} =\frac{60}{6} =10[/tex]
Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+5=8x: First, you are going to subtract 2x from both sides of the equation.
5=6x: Now divide 6x from each side of the equation.
x=5/6: now plug in 5/6 by multiplying this number by 12.
Your final answer should be 10.

in exponential growth functions, the base of the exponent must be greater than 1. How would the function change if the base exponent were 1? How would the function change if the base of the exponent were between 0 and 1?
Answer:
GREAT QUESTION!!
Step-by-step explanation:
Bases of exponential functions CANNOT be 1.
It the base was between 0 and 1, .25 for example, then it would be exponential decay, because as x would increase y would decrease.
Just search up exponential decay to see what it looks like, or type in y=.25^x in google search bar.
if this helped, Please give brainly, I need it! Thank you!
Answer:
If the base of the exponent were 1, the function would remain constant. The graph would be a horizontal line. If the base of the exponent were less than 1, but greater than 0, the function would be decreasing.
