Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Choice D

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

Explanation:

A sequence is simply a list of values. There may or may not be a pattern to the list, though usually in a math class your teacher would use a pattern.

A series is where we add partial sums of a certain sequence to form a new sequence. For example, let's say A = {44, 44, 44, ...} is one sequence and we could form a list of partial sums to be B = {44, 88, 132, ...} The 88 is from adding the first two terms of sequence A together. The 132 is from adding the first three terms of sequence A. This process is continued forever.

For a series to be convergent, the terms must approach some finite single value. They likely won't actually reach this value but they should get closer and closer (think of it like an asymptote). When I formed series B shown above, note how the terms keep growing. It turns out they won't stop growing either and that means the series diverges to positive infinity. So we rule out choice B. The same happens for choices A and C as well.

To make sure the series approaches some finite value, the underlying sequence its based on must have the terms approaching 0. Choice D seems to have this happen. The terms of the sequence are getting smaller and smaller. Adding on smaller pieces will produce terms in a series that would likely get us closer to some finite target.

Keep in mind that not all decreasing sequences have a converging series. A famous example would be the harmonic sequence {1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, ...} which its series does not converge. The proof of this lengthy so I'll leave it out.

In the case of choice D, it is a geometric sequence with a = 120 as the starting term and r = 0.8 as the common ratio. The series converges to

S = a/(1-r) = 120/(1-0.8) = 600

A local water park has two types of season passes. Plan A costs a one-time fee of $144 for admission plus $10 for parking every trip. Plan B costs a one-time fee of $48 for parking plus $22 for admission every trip. How many visits must a person make for plan A and plan B to be equal in value?

Answers

Please mark Brainliest!

Plan A = 10x + 144
Plan B = 48 + 22y
Equate them
10x + 144 = 22y + 48
22y - 10x = 144 - 48
22y - 10x = 96
divide by 2
11y - 5x = 48
What I did was just use trial and error at this point.
11(8) - 5(8) = 48

8 visits must a person make for plan A to plan B.

The person must make 8 trips for Plan A and B to be equal.

Plan A will cost $144 and then $10 for every parking. Assuming the number of trips is x, the expression would be:

= One time fee + (Fee per parking x number of trips)

= 144 + 10x

Plan B will cost $48 then parking of $22. Expression will be:

= 48 + 22x

To find out the number of trips where the cost will be equal, equate the two:

144 + 10x = 48 + 22x

144 - 48 = 22x - 10x

96 = 12x

x = 96 / 12

x = 8 trips

The person must therefore make 8 trips for Plan A and B to be equal.

Question 1
Researchers want to find a way to increase the growth rate of corn so it can be harvested more often. To test the effectiveness of a new type of spray fertilizer, plants grown from 200 corn seeds were divided equally into two groups: a treatment group and a control group. The treatment group was frequently sprayed with the new type of fertilizer. The growth in centimeters of each corn plant was noted before and after the treatment.

The results showed that the mean change in the growth rate by the treatment group is 8 points more than that of the control group. To test whether the results could be explained by random chance, researchers created a table that summarizes the results of 1,000 re-randomizations of the data with differences of means rounded to the nearest 2 points.

Consider the significance level to be set at 5%, so results less than 5% can be considered statistically significant.
Part B
Question
Which statement is true about the result considering a significance level of 5%?

The result is not statistically significant, which implies that spraying the corn plants with the new type of fertilizer does increase the growth rate.
The result is statistically significant, which implies that spraying the corn plants with the new type of fertilizer does increase the growth rate.
The result is statistically significant, which implies that spraying the corn plants with the new type of fertilizer does not increase the growth rate.
The result is not statistically significant, which implies that this result could be due to random chance.​

The required value of the x is 4 for the given circle. Option D is correct.

A figure is shown of a circle with two intersecting cords fractions 12+x and x+2+8. The value of the x is to determine.

What is a circle?

The circle is the locus of a point whose distance from a fixed point is constant i.e center (h, k). The equation of the circle is given by
(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²,
where h, k is the coordinate of the circle's center on the coordinate plane and r is the circle's radius.

The chords of the circle is the lines that bisect the circles in two parts, Longest chord of the circle is the Diameter.

Now.

x+2/x=8/12
12x = 8x+16

12x-8x=16
4x = 16
x = 4

Thus the required value of x is 4 for a given circle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a parallelogram equals the base length, which is y cm, multiplied by the height, which is 18cm.

y cm = 504cm^2 / 18cm

y cm = 28cm

4. Meg uses 1/2 of her supply of raisins
to make trail
mix and 3/10 of her supply of raisins to make
cookies. If Meg uses 8 pounds of raisins, how many
pounds of raising are in her supply

Answers

Answer:

10 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount of raisins Meg have in her supply. She uses 1/2 of her supply of raisins  to make trail  mix and 3/10 of her supply of raisins to make  cookies which gives a total of 8 pounds of raisins being used. To find the amount of raisins she has in her supply, we use the equation:

(1/2)x + (3/10)x = 8

multiply through by 20:

(1/2)x * 20 + (3/10)x * 20 = 8 * 20

10x + 6x = 160

16x = 160

Divide both sides of the equation by 16:

16x/16 = 160/16

x = 10 pounds

Therefore she have 10 pounds of raisins in her supply

36 = 9k ( divide both sides by 9 )

4 = k

F= 4a ← equation of proportion

When F = 32 , then

Step-by-step explanation:

In slope intercept form

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = -1/3x +10/3

We want it in the general form  ax+by +c =0  where a,b,c are integers and a>0

Multiply by 3 on each side

3*y = 3(-1/3x +10/3)

3y = -x +10

Add x to each side

x+3y = -x+10 +x

x+3y = 10

Subtract 10 from each side

x+3y -10 = 10-10

x+3y -10 =0
