fond the 7th term of the geometric sequence whose common ratio is 1/3 and whose first term is 4

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]a_7=\dfrac{4}{729}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

General form of geometric progression:  [tex]a_n=ar^{n-1}[/tex]

(where [tex]a[/tex] is the initial term and [tex]r[/tex] is the common ratio)

Given:

[tex]a=4[/tex][tex]r=\dfrac13[/tex]

[tex]\implies a_n=4\left(\dfrac13\right)^{n-1}[/tex]

Therefore, when n = 7:

[tex]\implies a_7=4\left(\dfrac13\right)^{7-1}[/tex]

[tex]\implies a_7=4\left(\dfrac13\right)^{6}[/tex]

[tex]\implies a_7=4\left(\dfrac{1^6}{3^6}\right)[/tex]

[tex]\implies a_7=4\left(\dfrac{1}{729}\right)[/tex]

[tex]\implies a_7=\dfrac{4}{729}[/tex]

A company sells each product they make for $90.00. They pay $2,300.00 in monthly costs, such as rent and bills, as well as $75.00 in manufacturing costs per unit. If the company sold 495 units last month, what was their total profit?
A.
$34,825.00
B.
$6,610.00
C.
$42,175.00
D.
$5,125.00

Answers

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following question:

Product costs: $90
Monthly bills: $2,300
Manufacturing costs: $75

How much profit did they make in one month if they sold 495 units?

In order to find the answer, we first need to multiply the cost of the product by the units sold last month, then subtract the bills/manufacturing costs.

One unit = 90 dollars
495 units sold last month

[tex]90\times495=44550[/tex]
[tex]=44550[/tex]

The company made 44,550 from the product last month.

Now apply the fees/costs:
2,300 dollars in monthly costs
75 dollars in manufacturing costs PER UNIT

[tex]44550-2300=42250[/tex]
[tex]75\times495=37125[/tex]
[tex]42250-37125=5125[/tex]
[tex]=5125[/tex]

Which means the company made a total profit of "$5,125 dollars" or option D last month.

Using exponential function concepts, it is found that the student error is in the subtraction of the day rate, as he forgot to subtract from 100% = 1.

What is an exponential function?

A decaying exponential function is modeled by:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1 - r)^t[/tex]

In which:

A(0) is the initial value.r is the decay rate, as a decimal.

In this problem, the initial value of the computer is of A(0) = 1500, while it decays at a rate of 15% a year, hence r = 0.15 and the equation is:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1 - r)^t[/tex]

[tex]A(t) = 1500(0.85)^t[/tex]

Or equivalently, as a sequence:

[tex]a_n = 1500(0.85)^{n-1}[/tex]

Hence, it is found that the student error is in the subtraction of the day rate, as he forgot to subtract from 100% = 1.

How to make 2 numbers add up to 120 but one of the numbers is 25 more than the other.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 47.5 and 72.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;The sum of two numbers is equal to 120.

So,

Let the number be x and the other number be (x + 25).

Now,

x + (x + 25) = 120

x + x + 25 = 120

2x + 25 = 120

2x + 25 – 25 = 120 – 25

2x = 95

2x/2 = 95/2

x = 47.5

Thus, The number be x is equal to 47.5 and other which is more 25 than other number is (47.5 + 25) = 72.5

-TheUnknownScientist 72

Answer:

The numbers are 47.5 and 72.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "x" represent the larger number, then the smaller number would be equivalent to:

[tex]x-25[/tex]

Larger Number + Smaller Number = 120

Therefore...

[tex]x+x-25=120[/tex]

Combine like terms:

[tex]2x-25=120[/tex]

Add 25 to both sides (note we are utilizing the Addition Property of Equality which essentially states that if you add a value to one side of the equation, you must add it to the other side as well):

[tex]2x=120+25\\2x=145[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2 (note we are now utilizing the Division Property of Equality which essentially states that if you divide a value from one side of the equation, you must divide it from the other side as well; the same as the Addition Property of Equality, but with division instead):

[tex]x=\frac{145}{2}\\x=72.5[/tex]

Therefore...

[tex]x-25=72.5-25=47.5[/tex]

Find the producer's surplus at market equilibrium for a product if its demand function is p = 121 − [tex]x^{2}[/tex] and its supply function is p = [tex]x^{2}[/tex] + 6x + 65. (Round your answer to the nearest cent.)

Answers

The market equilibrium is the point where the demand and supply functions are equal

The producer's surplus at market equilibrium for a product is #105

How to determine the producer's surplus

The functions are given as:

[tex]p = 121 - x^2[/tex]

[tex]p = x^2 + 6x + 65[/tex]

Equate both functions

[tex]x^2 + 6x + 65 = 121 - x^2[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]x^2 + x^2 + 6x + 65 - 121 = 0[/tex]

Evaluate the like terms

[tex]2x^2 + 6x -56 = 0[/tex]

Divide through by 2

[tex]x^2 + 3x -28 = 0[/tex]

Expand

[tex]x^2 + 7x - 4x - 28 = 0[/tex]

Factorize

[tex]x(x + 7) - 4(x +7)= 0[/tex]

Factor out x + 7

[tex](x - 4)(x +7)= 0[/tex]

Solve for x

x = 4 or x = -7

The number of units cannot be negative,

So, we have:

x = 4

Substitute 4 for x in [tex]p = 121 - x^2[/tex]

[tex]p = 121 - 4^2[/tex]

p = 105

Hence, the producer's surplus at market equilibrium for a product is #105

The average number of words in a romance novel is 64,436 and the standard deviation is 17,071. Assume the distribution is normal. Let X be the number of words in a randomly selected romance novel. Round all answers to 4 decimal places where possible.

a. What is the distribution of X? X ~ N(
64436
Correct,
17071
Correct)

b. Find the proportion of all novels that are between 72,972 and 90,043 words.


c. The 75th percentile for novels is
words. (Round to the nearest word)

d. The middle 60% of romance novels have from
words to
words. (Round to the nearest word)

Answers

b. You're looking for the probability

Pr [72,972 ≤ X ≤ 90,043]

Transform X to Z ∼ Normal(0, 1) using the rule

X = µ + σ Z

with µ = 64,436 and σ = 17,071. Then the probability is

Pr [(72,972 - µ)/σ ≤ (X - µ)/σ ≤ (90,043 - µ)/σ]

≈ Pr [0.5000 ≤ Z ≤ 1.5000]

You probably have a z-score table available, so you can look up the probabilities to be about

Pr [Z ≤ 0.5000] ≈ 0.6915

Pr [Z ≤ 1.5000] ≈ 0.9332

and then

Pr [0.5000 ≤ Z ≤ 1.5000] ≈ 0.9332 - 0.6915 = 0.2417

c. The 75th percentile word count that separates the lower 75% of the distribution from the upper 25%. In other words, its the count x such that

Pr [X ≤ x] = 0.75

Transforming to Z and looking up the z-score for 0.75, we have

Pr [(X - µ)/σ ≤ (x - µ)/σ] ≈ Pr [Z ≤ 0.6745]

so that

(x - µ)/σ ≈ 0.6745

x ≈ µ + 0.6745σ

x ≈ 75,950

d. Because the normal distribution is symmetric, the middle 60% of novels have word counts between µ - k and µ + k, where k is a constant such that

Pr [µ - k ≤ X ≤ µ + k] = 0.6

Also due to symmetry, we have

Pr [µ - k ≤ X ≤ µ + k] = 2 Pr [µ ≤ X ≤ µ + k]

⇒   Pr [µ ≤ X ≤ µ + k] = 0.3

Transform X to Z :

Pr [(µ - µ)/σ ≤ (X - µ)/σ ≤ (µ + k - µ)/σ] = 0.3

⇒   Pr [0 ≤ Z ≤ k/σ] = 0.3

⇒   Pr [Z ≤ k/σ] - Pr [Z ≤ 0] = 0.3

⇒   Pr [Z ≤ k/σ] - 0.5 = 0.3

⇒   Pr [Z ≤ k/σ] = 0.8

Consult a z-score table:

Pr [Z ≤ k/σ] ≈ Pr [Z ≤ 0.8416]

⇒   k/σ ≈ 0.8416

⇒   k ≈ 14,367

Then the middle 60% of novels have between µ - k = 50,069 and µ + k = 78,803 words.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The original perimeter is 100cm

The 20cm is representative of the width

30cm is representative of the length

length is increased by 10%

30+(.10 x 30)

(1 + .10) × 30

(100% + 10%) × 30

110% × 30

110 ÷ 100 × 30

110 × 30 ÷ 100

3,300 ÷ 100

= 33

length is increased by 5%

20 + (5% × 20) =

20 + 5% × 20 =

(1 + 5%) × 20 =

(100% + 5%) × 20 =

105% × 20 =

105 ÷ 100 × 20 =

105 × 20 ÷ 100 =

2,100 ÷ 100 =

= 21

Answer:

Value of k is 74

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have been provided with the values of n and w that is 4 and -6 respectively.

Equation that we have,

k = 5n² + w

Substituting the values of n and w in the equation,

[tex] \implies \: \sf{k \: = \: 5(4) {}^{2} \: + \: ( - 6)}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \: \sf{k \: = \: 5(4 \times 4) \: + \: ( - 6)}[/tex]

[tex] \implies \: \sf{k \: = \: 5 \: (16) \: + \: ( - 6)}[/tex]

Multiplying 16 by 5,

[tex]\implies \: \sf{k \: = \: 5 \: \times 16 \: + \: ( - 6)}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \: \sf{k \: = \: 80 \: + \: ( - 6)}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \: \sf{k \: = \: 80 \: - \:6)}[/tex]

Subtracting 6 from 80,

Therefore, value of k is 74..!!
