a game consists of placing seeds in 24 cups. a player puts two seeds in the first cup, four in the second, six in the third and so on. how many seeds will be required altogether if the player continues to the 24th cup in this way?​

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The next cup will always have 2 more than the previous one. Continue the pattern of adding two seeds to each cup until you reach the 24th cup like so:

#s on left side = # of seed , #s on right side = # cup

6 | 3    8 | 4      10 | 5      12 | 6     14 | 7    16 | 8     18 | 9          20 | 10        22 | 11

24 | 12     26 | 13       28 | 14      30 | 15     32 | 16    34 | 17    36 | 18     38 | 19

40 | 20      42 | 21         44 | 22     46 | 23    48 | 24

What you want to know is the number of TOTAL SEEDS NEEDED TO PLAY THIS GAME. NOT how many seeds will be in the 24th cup. To find the TOTAL you need to add 2 + 4 + 6 and so on like so:

2 + 4 + 6 + 8 + 10 + 12 + 14 + 16 + 18 + 20 + 22 + 24 + 26 + 28 + 30 + 32 + 34 + 36 + 38 + 40 + 42 + 44 + 46 + 48 = 600 TOTAL SEEDS TO PLAY THIS GAME. (this is your answer)

what is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is 9x+3y=-27

Answers

Answer:

y = (1/3)x - 27 <-- perpendicular line

Step-by-step explanation:

9x + 3y = (-27)

3x + y = (-27)

y = (-3x) - 27 <-- original line

y = (-3x) - 27 <-- original line

slope = (-3)

slope = (-3/1)

inverse = (1/-3)

negative inverse = (1/3)

y = (1/3)x - 27 <-- perpendicular line

An athlete us jumping. However, everytime she jumps she gets a bit more tired, and every jump goes 1/2 as far as her prior jump. Now, for her very first jump, she goes 1/2 of a foot. On her second jump, she goes 1/4 of a foot, and so on and so forth. How many jumps does it take to get to travel 1 foot

Answers

Answer:

She can never travel a distance of 1 foot for the given condition.

Step-by-step explanation:

In every jump, she goes 1/2 as far as her prior jump.

In the 1st jump, she covered a distance, d_1= \frac 1 2 foot.

The distance covered in the 2nd jump

[tex]d_2= \frac 12 \times d_1 = = \frac 12 \times \frac 12= \frac 1 4[/tex] (given)

So, the distanve covered in the 3rd jump

[tex]=\frac 12 \times d_2= \left(\frac 1 2\right )^2\times \frac 1 2= \left(\frac 1 2\right)^{3-1}\times \frac 1 2.[/tex]

Similarly, the distance covered in the [tex]r^{th}[/tex] jump

[tex]=\left(\frac 12 \right)^{r-1}\times \frac 1 2.[/tex]

Assuming she requires [tex]n[/tex] jumps to travel 1 foot of distance.

So, the sum of all the distances covered in n jumps = 1 foot

[tex]\Rightarrow \frac 1 2 + \frac 1 4 + \cdots + \left(\frac 12 \right)^{r-1}\times \frac 1 2+\cdots+ \left(\frac 12 \right)^{n-1}\times \frac 1 2=1[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow \frac 1 2 + \left(\frac 12 \right)^2 + \cdots + \left(\frac 12 \right)^{r}+\cdots+ \left(\frac 12 \right)^{n}=1[/tex]

This a geometric progression, G.P., of [tex]n[/tex] terms having common ration, r= 1/2 and the first term [tex]a_1= 1/2[/tex].

As sum of all the n terms of  G.P [tex]=\frac {a_1(r^n-1)}{r-1}[/tex],

[tex]\Rightarrow \frac {1/2((1/2)^n-1)}{1/2-1}=1[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow - \left(\left(\frac 1 2\right)^n-1\right)=1[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow \left(\frac 1 2\right)^n-1=-1[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow \left(\frac 1 2\right)^n=-1+1=0[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow \frac {1}{2^n}=0[/tex]

This is only possible, mathematically, when [tex]n\rightarrow \infty[/tex], But in real life situation reaching infinity is not possible.

Hence, she can never travel a distance of 1 foot for the given condition.

E'F' is half the length of EF. E'F' is greater than twice the length of EF.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is " E'F' and EF are equal in length".

By rotating that through some degree, a revolution is some kind of rigid transformation, which creates an image of the very same shape and size. There will be two main properties of the rotation:

Preservation of rotating scale (including sides and angles). The lines connecting the rotation center to the pre-image and the corresponding image point are of equal length.

In each line, the segment is rotated counterclockwise 180 degrees around the origin to form E'F, that's why the above given choice is correct.

The scale on a map reads 2 inches = 5 miles. What is the actual distance
between two cities on the map that are 6.5 inches apart?*
O A. 2.6 miles
B. 13 miles
O C.32.5 miles
D. 16.25 miles

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2 inches = 5 miles.

So if you divide both sides by 2,

1 inch = 2.5 miles

To find how many miles 6.5inches is equal to, multiply 2.5 by 6.5

6.5 inches = 2.5 x 6.5 = 16.25 miles

The lengths of salamanders have a normal distribution with mean 15cm, and standard deviation 2cm. What is the probability a salamander has length between 12.2cm and 16.5cm

Answers

Answer:

The probability a salamander has a length between 12.2cm and 16.5cm is 0.6930

Step-by-step explanation:

We start by finding the z-score of each

Mathematically;

z-score = (x - mean)/SD

for 12.2 cm

z-score = (12.2 - 15)/2 = -2.8/2 = -1.4

For 16.5 cm

z-score = (16.5 -15)/2 = 1.5/2 = 0.75

So the probability we want to calculate is;

P( -1.4 < z < 0.75)

we can calculate this using the normal distribution table

Mathematically;

P( -1.4 < z < 0.75) = P( z < 0.75) - P( z < -1.4)

= 0.2263 + 0.30738

= 0.69262

Carrie needs to determine the number of tiles that will fit in each row along the back of the shower. If the back of the shower measures 6 feet long and each tile is Two-thirds of a foot long, which equation shows how to determine the number of tiles that will fit in each row?

Answers

Answer: A6/ 2/3= 9

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that one tile is 2/3 ft long and we want to cover 6 ft (which is the given measure of the back of the shower).

To know the number of tiles needed, we will simply do cross multiplication as follows:

1 tile ...............> 2/3 ft

?? tiles ...........> 6 ft

Number of tiles = (6*1) / (2/3)

Number of tiles = 6 / (2/3)

Number of tiles = 9 tiles

The probability that a truck will be going over the speed limit on I-77 South between Dobson and Elkin is about 75%. Suppose a random sample of five trucks are observed on this stretch of I-77. a. Find the mean of this probability distribution. Show the formula and your work. b. Interpret the mean in the context of the problem. c. Find the standard deviation of this probability distribution. Round your answer to 2 decimal places. d. Find the probability that exactly 3 of the observed trucks are speeding. e. Find the probability that less than 3 of the observed trucks are speeding.

Answers

Answer:

Explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X = number of trucks that will be going over the speed limit on I-77 South between Dobson and Elkin.

The probability of X is, p = 0.75.

A random sample of n = 5 trucks are observed on this stretch of I-77.

The random variable X follows a binomial distribution with parameters n = 5 and p = 0.75.

(a)

Compute the mean as follows:

[tex]\mu=n\times p=5\times 0.75=3.75[/tex]

The mean of this probability distribution is 3.75.

(b)

The mean of 3.75 implies that on average 3.75 trucks that will be going over the speed limit on I-77 South between Dobson and Elkin.

(c)

Compute the standard deviation as follows:

[tex]\sigma=\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{5\times 0.75\times (1-0.75)}=0.968[/tex]

Thus, the standard deviation of this probability distribution is 0.97.

(d)

Compute the probability that exactly 3 of the observed trucks are speeding as follows:

[tex]P(X=3)={5\choose 3}(0.75)^{3}(1-0.75)^{5-3}\\\\=10\times 0.421875\times 0.0625\\\\=0.263671875\\\\\approx 0.2637[/tex]

Thus, the probability that exactly 3 of the observed trucks are speeding is 0.2637.

(e)

Compute the probability that less than 3 of the observed trucks are speeding as follows:

[tex]P(X<3)=P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)\\\\=\sum\limits^{2}_{x=0}{{5\choose x}(0.75)^{x}(1-0.75)^{5-x}}\\\\=0.0009765625+0.0146484375+0.087890625\\\\=0.103515625\\\\\approx 0.1035[/tex]

Thus, the probability that less than 3 of the observed trucks are speeding is 0.1035.

y = [tex]\frac{2w}{x^{2}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve an equation for one of its variable do that

Underline the variableSeparate it on one side and the other terms on the other sideMake its coefficient equal 1

Let us use these steps to solve our question

∵ w = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x²y

→ Underline y

∴ w = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x²y

→ Multiply both sides by 2 to cancel the denominator 2

∵ 2 × w = 2 ×  [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x²y

∴ 2w = x²y

→ Divide both sides by x² to move it to the left side

∵ [tex]\frac{2w}{x^{2}}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{x^{2}y}{x^{2}}[/tex]

∴  [tex]\frac{2w}{x^{2}}[/tex] =  y

→ Switch the two sides

y = [tex]\frac{2w}{x^{2}}[/tex]
