1. Common ratio of the G.P is 50

2. First term of the G.P is -100

3. Sum of the 8th term is 250.

Given,

In a Geometric progression,

7th term is 16 times the 3rd term

Sum of 2nd and 6th term is 102

Common ratio is positive.

Now,

Take a as first term.

r as common ratio

Then,

2nd term = a + r

6th term = a + 5r

So,

a + r + a + 5r = 102

Then,

2a + 6r = 102

2a = 102 - 6r

a = (102 - 6r) / 2

Now,

1. Common ratio:

Consider any term,

Here, 3rd term = a + 2r

Substitute a here.

a + 2r =  (102 - 6r) / 2 + 2r

102 - 6r + 4r = 2

102 - 2 = 6r - 4r

100 = 2r

r = 100/2 = 50

That is,

The common ratio of the G.P is 50.

2. First term:

Consider,

7th term is 16 times the 3rd term

That is,

3rd term = a + 2r

7th term = 16(a + 2r)

r = 50

Then,

a + 50 × 2 = 16(a + 50 × 2)

a + 100 = 16(a + 100)

a + 100 = 16a + 1600

100 - 1600 = 16a - a

15a = -1500

a = -1500/15

a = -100

Therefore,

The first term of the G.P is -100

3. Sum of the 8th term.

8th term = a + 7r = -100 + 7 × 50 = -100 + 350 = 250

That is,

The sum of the 8th term is 250.

f(x) = 0

px^2 + qx - 4p = 0

abc-Formula: x = (-b ± √(b^2 - 4·a·c))/(2·a)

x = (-q ± √(q^2 - 4·p·(-4p)))/(2·p)

Because q^2 + 4^2·p^2 > 0 there are two roots.

The equivalent expressions to (9 7/8 + 2 4/5) - 1/2 are given as follows:

a) 9 7/8 + (2 4/5) - 1/2.

b) 9 7/8 + 2 4/5 + (-1/2).

Equivalent expressions are expressions that have the same result.

In this problem, the expression a is equivalent to the given expression, as the only difference is the order of the operations being applied, as the subtraction of 2 4/5 and -1/2 is applied before the addition of 9 7/8 + 2 4/5.

Expression b is also equivalent to the given expression, as an addition with the negative number in the fraction is made. However, the addition sign means that the sign inside the parenthesis is kept, which is negative, hence no change is made to the expression.

The remaining expressions involve changes to the signals of each term, hence they are not equivalent to the presented expressions.

The sloth speed of running is 10/3 meters per minute

Distance travelled = 1/3 meters

Time taken to travel the distance = 1/10 minute

The formula for speed is given:

The distance travelled in a unit of time is called speed. It refers to a thing's rate of movement. The scalar quantity known as speed is the velocity vector's magnitude. It has no clear direction. A faster rate of movement is indicated by a higher speed. It is travelling more slowly if the speed is lower.

Speed = Distance/ Time

Speed of the sloth = (1/3)/(1/10)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Seven people sharing the rent would make the cost $120 per person.

When two quantities are inversely proportional, that is, when an increase in one causes a decrease in the other and vice versa, they are said to be inversely proportional.

The general equation for inverse variation is y = k/x, where k is the proportionality constant and x and y are two variables.

Given:

The price paid by Four friends on a ski trip to share the rent of a cabin = $210

The cost per person varies inversely with the number of persons.

Let the cost be C and the number of persons be n,

C ∝ 1/n

So, the equation becomes, k = Cn.

Putting the values in the equation we obtain the value of k,

k = 210×4 = 840

We have to find the number of people sharing the rent that would make the cost $120 per person.

Using the equation,

k = Cn

840 = 120 × n

n = 840/120 = 7

Therefore, seven people sharing the rent would make the cost $120 per person.

A function with the formula f(x) = ax + b, where a and b are real values, is referred to as a linear function. Here, a stands for the line's gradient, and b for the y-axis intercept (which is sometimes called the vertical intercept).

On the map  [tex]1\frac{1}{2}[/tex]  miles is equal to  [tex]1\frac{7}{8}[/tex] inches  .

we first convert the mixed fraction to normal fractions ,

we get

[tex]1\frac{1}{2}[/tex]  miles = (1*2+1)/2 = 3/2 miles

and

[tex]1\frac{7}{8}[/tex] inches = (8+7)/8 = 15/8 inches

So, the statement becomes

On the map  3/2  miles is equal to  15/8 inches .

So  1 mile = (15/8)/(3/2) = (15*2)/(8*3) = 30/24 = 5/4

so , the unite rate is 5/4 inches per mile .

given the road B is 15 miles long .

The amount of money Landon will make in 1 hour is $12 and he needs to work for 13 hours to make $156.

The amount of money he will make in 1 hour can be calculated by using division.

It can be determined by dividing the total amount earned by him by the total number of hours he worked yesterday. Therefore;

money earned in 1 hour = total amount earned ÷ total number of hours

money earned in 1 hour = 48 ÷ 4

money earned in 1 hour = $12

Now we can calculate the number of hours he needs to work at the movie theater to make $156 by dividing the desired amount by the amount earned in one hour. Therefore;

number of hours required = 156 / 12

number of hours required = 13

Hence, Landon will make $12 in one hour and he will need to work 13 hours to make $156

The 95% confidence interval will be more extensive than the 90% confidence interval

In measurements, the probability that a population boundary will fall between a bunch of values for a specific level of the time is alluded to as a certainty stretch. Investigators every now and again utilize certainty goes that incorporate 95% or the vast majority of expected perceptions. Thus, it could be presumed that there is a 95% probability that the genuine worth falls inside that reach assuming that a point gauge of 10.00 with a 95% certainty time frame - 10.50 is determined utilizing a factual model.

The degree of conviction or vulnerability in a testing cycle is estimated by certainty spans.

Also, they are utilized in relapse examination and speculation testing.

To decide measurable importance, analysts often join certainty spans with p-values.
