Answer:
The 105th term of given sequence is [tex]\frac{105}{2}[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
The given sequence is
[tex]\frac{1}{2},1,\frac{3}{2},2[/tex]
It can be rewritten as
[tex]0.5,1,1.5,2[/tex]
Here the first term is 0.5.
It is an arithmetic sequence because it has common difference.
[tex]d=a_2-a_1=1-0.5=0.5[/tex]
[tex]d=a_3-a_2=1.5-1=0.5[/tex]
[tex]d=a_4-a_3=2-1.5=0.5[/tex]
The nth term of an AP is
[tex]a_n=a_1+(n-1)d[/tex]
where, [tex]a_1[/tex] is first term and d is common difference.
Substitute [tex]a_1=0.5[/tex] and [tex]d=0.5[/tex] in the above formula.
[tex]a_n=0.5+(n-1)0.5[/tex]
[tex]a_n=0.5+0.5n-0.5[/tex]
[tex]a_n=0.5n[/tex]
We need to find the 105th term of given sequence.
Substitute n=105 in the above equation.
[tex]a_n=0.5(105)[/tex]
[tex]a_n=52.5[/tex]
[tex]a_n=\frac{105}{2}[/tex]
Therefore the 105th term of given sequence is [tex]\frac{105}{2}[/tex].
In a recent year, 17.7% of household watched the finals of a popular reality series. There are 110.2 million households in the United States. How many households watched the finals?
This is Find the percent of a number.
For this case we propose a rule of three:
110.2 million -------------> 100%
x --------------------------------------> 17.7%
Where the variable "x" represents the number of households (in millions) that watched the finals of a popular reality series.
[tex]x = \frac {17.7 * 110.2} {100}\\x = \frac {1950.54} {100}\\x = 19.5054[/tex]
Thus, a total of 19.5054 million homes watched the finals of a popular reality series.
Answer:
19.5054 million homes watched the finals of a popular reality series.
A manufacturer has a monthly fixed cost of $110,000 and a production cost of $14 for each unit produced. The product sells for $20 per unit.
(a) What is the cost function?
C(x) =
(b) What is the revenue function?
R(x) =
(c) What is the profit function?
P(x) =
(d) Compute the profit or loss corresponding to a production level of 12,000 and 23,000 units. (Input a negative value to indicate a loss.)
at 12,000 units $ ______
at 23,000 units $______
Answer:
Cost function C(x) == FC + VC*Q
Revenue function R(x) = Px * Q
Profit function P(x) =(Px * Q)-(FC + VC*Q)
P(12000) = -38000 Loss
P(23000) = 28000 profit
Step-by-step explanation:
Total Cost is Fixed cost plus Variable cost multiplied by the produce quantity.
(a)Cost function
C(x) = FC + vc*Q
Where
FC=Fixed cost
VC=Variable cost
Q=produce quantity
(b)
Revenue function
R(x) = Px * Q
Where
Px= Sales Price
Q=produce quantity
(c) Profit function
Profit = Revenue- Total cost
P(x) =(Px * Q)-(FC + vc*Q)
(d) We have to replace in the profit function
at 12,000 units
P(12000) =($20 * 12,000)-($110,000 + $14*12,000)
P(12000) = -38000
at 23,000 units
P(x) =($20 * 23,000)-($110,000 + $14*23,000)
P(23000) = 28000
using a directrixof y = -3 and a focus of (2, 1), what quadratic funtion is created
Answer:
The function is a parabola described by: [tex]y = 1 +\frac{(x-2)^{2}}{8}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Since a directrix and a focus are given, then we know that they are talking about a parabola.
We know that the distance from any point in a parabola (x, y), to the focus is exactly the same as the distance to the directrix. Therefore, in order to find the required equation, first we will compute the distance from an arbitrary point on the parabola (x, y) to the focus (2, 1):
[tex]d_{pf} = \sqrt{(x-2)^2+(y-1)^2}[/tex]
Next, we will find the distance from an arbitrary point on the parabola (x, y) to the directrix (y= -3). Since we have an horizontal directrix, the distance is easily calculated as:
[tex]d_{pd}=y-(-3)=y+3[/tex]
Finally, we equate the distances in order to find the parabola equation:
[tex]\sqrt{(x-2)^2+(y-1)^2}=y+3[/tex]
[tex](x-2)^2+(y-1)^2=(y+3)^2[/tex]
[tex](x-2)^{2} +y^{2}-2y+1=y^{2}+6y+9[/tex]
[tex](x-2)^{2}-8=8y[/tex]
[tex]y = \frac{(x-2)^{2}}{8}-1[/tex]
You wish to ship six crude oil samples from your drill site to your laboratory. Each sample has a density of 0.8240 kg/L and fills a 1.090e-4 m3container. How much mass, X g , of crude oil will you be shipping?
(HINT: |X| is near an order of magnitude of 102 g ).
Answer:
total mass of 6 samples = 538.896 g
in terms of X = 5.283 g
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Number of crude oil samples = 6
Density of each sample = 0.8240 kg/L
Volume filled by each sample = 1.09 × 10⁻⁴ m³
now,
1 m³ = 1000 L
thus,
1.09 × 10⁻⁴ m³ = 1.09 × 10⁻⁴ m³ × 1000 = 0.109 L
also,
Mass = Density × Volume
or
Mass of each sample = 0.8240 × 0.109 = 0.089816 kg
Thus,
total mass of 6 samples = Mass of each sample × 6
or
total mass of 6 samples = 0.089816 kg × 6 = 0.538896 kg
or
total mass of 6 samples = 538.896 g
or
in X = [tex]\frac{\textup{total mass of 6 samples}}{\textup{102}}[/tex]
= 5.283 g

If sin phi sin theta = 0.2 and sin phi cos theta = -0.3 and sin phi > 0 what is theta ? Repeat for sin phi < 0.
Answer:
θ = -33.69°
Step-by-step explanation:
For Φ>0 and Φ<0 (in general Φ≠nπ where n is an integer), sin(Φ) ≠ 0
Dividing both equations:
[tex]\frac{sin(\phi) sin(\theta)}{sin(\phi)cos(\theta)} = tan(\theta) = 0.2/(-0.3)=-2/3\\[/tex]
Therefore:
arctan(θ) = -2/3
θ = -33.69°
The answer does not depend on the sign of Φ, in fact we just need that the sine does not become zero, which occurs when Φ is equal to an integer times π (radians) or 180 (degrees)
Have a nice day!
To find theta (θ) given that sin phi (φ) sin theta (θ) = 0.2 and sin phi (φ) cos theta (θ) = -0.3 with sin phi (φ) being positive or negative, one must first eliminate sin phi (φ) by manipulating the given equations, then solve for theta (θ) using trigonometric identities and inverse functions based on the signs of sin and cos.
Explanation:We have two equations involving sin φ and θ (theta): sin φ sin θ = 0.2 and sin φ cos θ = -0.3. Also, it is given that sin φ > 0 or sin φ < 0. To find θ, first, we need to derive an equation involving only θ by eliminating sin φ. We can do this by squaring and adding both equations.
∑: (sin φ sin θ)^2 + (sin φ cos θ)^2 = 0.2^2 + (-0.3)^2 = 0.04 + 0.09 = 0.13
Using the Pythagorean identity sin^2 θ + cos^2 θ = 1, we can rewrite ∑ as sin^2 φ = 0.13. To solve for θ, we can take either of the initial equations, say sin φ sin θ = 0.2, and substitute sin^2 φ from ∑ giving sin θ = (0.2 / √0.13) or cos θ = (-0.3 / √0.13). Both positive and negative values of sin φ lead to the calculation for different θ values. The actual values of θ are determined by using the arc functions (arcsin, arccos) for both positive and negative scenarios of sin φ, taking into account the range of θ based on the signs of sin and cos.
How many sets of two or more consecutive positive integers can be added to obtain a sum of 1800?
Answer:
n = 60
Step-by-step explanation:
GIVEN DATA:
Total sum of consecutive number is 1800
sum of n number is given as
[tex] sum = \frac{ n(n+1)}{2}[/tex]
where n is positive number and belong to natural number i.e 1,2,3,4,...
from the data given we have[tex]1800 = \frac{n(n+1)}{2}[/tex]
solving for n we get
[/tex]n^2 + n -3600 = 0[/tex]
n = 59.5, -60.5
therefore n = 60
the amount of carbon 14 still present is a sample after t years
is given by the function C(t)=
Coe-.00012t
where co is the initial anong . estimate the age of a sample of
wood discoverd by a arecheologist if the carbon level in the sample
is only 20% of it orginal carbon 14 level.
Answer:
The age of this sample is 13,417 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
The amount of carbon 14 present in a sample after t years is given by the following equation:
[tex]C(t) = C_{0}e^{-0.00012t}[/tex]
Estimate the age of a sample of wood discoverd by a arecheologist if the carbon level in the sampleis only 20% of it orginal carbon 14 level.
The problem asks us to find the value of t when
[tex]C(t) = 0.2C_{0}[/tex]
So:
[tex]C(t) = C_{0}e^{-0.00012t}[/tex]
[tex]0.2C_{0} = C_{0}e^{-0.00012t}[/tex]
[tex]e^{-0.00012t} = \frac{0.2C_{0}}{C_{0}}[/tex]
[tex]e^{-0.00012t} = 0.2[/tex]
[tex]ln e^{-0.00012t} = ln 0.2[/tex]
[tex]-0.00012t = -1.61[/tex]
[tex]0.00012t = 1.61[/tex]
[tex]t = \frac{1.61}{0.00012}[/tex]
[tex]t = 13,416.7[/tex]
The age of this sample is 13,417 years.

On rainy days, Izzy goes from his house to the school by running 1.2 miles on West St, then makes a 90º turn and runs 0.5 miles on North Ave.
a. If Izzy runs 7.5 miles per hour, approximately how much time will it take her to run to school on rainy days?
b. On dry days, Izzy runs on the dashed path through the woods. How far is she traveling?
c. If Izzy runs 7.5 miles per hour, how much time will she save by cutting through the woods?
To calculate the time Izzy takes to run to school on rainy days, we use the distance and speed to find that she runs 1.7 miles in approximately 13.6 minutes. We are unable to calculate the distance through the woods or the time saved without further information.
Explanation:Calculation of Time and Distance
To calculate the time Izzy takes to run to school on rainy days, we use the following formula:
Time (in hours) = Distance (in miles) / Speed (in miles per hour)
Izzy runs a total distance of 1.2 miles on West St and then 0.5 miles on North Ave, summing up to 1.7 miles. Given Izzy's speed is 7.5 miles per hour, the time taken to run to school on rainy days can be calculated as:
Time = (1.2 + 0.5) miles / 7.5 mph = 1.7 / 7.5
To find the time in minutes, multiply the time in hours by 60:
Time in minutes = (1.7 / 7.5) imes 60
= 13.6 minutes (approximately)
As the dashed path through the woods on dry days is not described in the question, we cannot calculate the exact distance Izzy is traveling through the woods. Without this information, we also cannot calculate the time saved by cutting through the woods.
Prove that (from i=1 to n) sum([1/((2i-1)(2i+1))] = n/(2n+1). If true use induction, else give smallest value of n that it is false for.
Answer:
The statement is true
Step-by-step explanation:
We will prove by mathematical induction that, for every natural n,
[tex]\sum^{n}_{i=1}\frac{1}{(2i-1)(2i+1)} =\frac{n}{2n+1}[/tex]
We will prove our base case, when n=1, to be true.
base case:
[tex]\sum^{1}_{i=1}\frac{1}{(2-1)(2+1)} =\frac{1}{3}=\frac{n}{2n+1}[/tex]
Inductive hypothesis:
[tex]\sum^{n}_{i=1}\frac{1}{(2i-1)(2i+1)} =\frac{n}{2n+1}[/tex]
Now, we will assume the induction hypothesis and then uses this assumption, involving n, to prove the statement for n + 1.
Inductive step:
[tex]\sum^{n+1}_{i=1}\frac{1}{(2i-1)(2i+1)} =\sum^{n}_{i=1}\frac{1}{(2i-1)(2i+1)}+\frac{1}{(2(n+1)-1)(2(n+1)+1)}=\frac{n}{2n+1}+\frac{1}{(2n+1)(2n+3)}=\frac{n(2n+3)+1}{(2n+1)(2n+3)}=\frac{2n^2+3n+1}{(2n+1)(2n+3)}=\frac{(2n+1)(n+1)}{(2n+1)(2n+3)}=\frac{n+1}{2n+3}=\frac{n+1}{2(n+1)+1}[/tex]
With this we have proved our statement to be true for n+1.
In conlusion, for every natural [tex]n[/tex].
[tex]\sum^{n}_{i=1}\frac{1}{(2i-1)(2i+1)} =\frac{n}{2n+1}[/tex]

In a certain region of the country it is known from past experience that the probability of selecting an adult over 40 years of age with cancer is 0.05. If the probability of a doctor correctly diagnosing a person with cancer as having the disease is 0.78 and the probability of incorrectly diagnosing a person without cancer as having the disease is 0.06, what is the probability that an adult over 40 years of age is diagnosed as having cancer?
Answer: Our required probability is 0.406.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Probability of selecting an adult over 40 years of age with cancer = 0.05
Probability of a doctor correctly diagnosing a person with cancer as having the disease = 0.78
Probability of incorrectly diagnosing a person without cancer as having the disease = 0.06
Let A be the given event i.e. adult over 40 years of age with cancer. P(A) = 0.05.
So, P(A')=1-0.05 = 0.95
Let C be the event that having cancer.
P(C|A)=0.78
P(C|A')=0.06
So, using the Bayes theorem, we get that
[tex]P(A|C)=\dfrac{P(A).P(C|A)}{P(A).P(C|A)+P(A')P(C|A')}\\\\P(A|C)=\dfrac{0.78\times 0.05}{0.78\times 0.05+0.06\times 0.95}\\\\P(A|C)=0.406[/tex]
Hence, our required probability is 0.406.
Why does changing a subrtraction problem to an addition with the complement of 9 work
Step-by-step explanation:
When we need to subtract a number from another number, in that case, we can take the complement of the first number to add it to the second number, the result will be the same. It is because when we take the complement of 9 of that number, it will represent the negative of that number. Hence, by adding the negative of a number we will get the same result as we get after subtraction.
For example:
Subtract 213 from 843
843 - 213 = 630
complement of 9 of 213= 999-213
=786
Now, add 786 and 843
786+843=1629
We got the result in 4 digits so by adding the left-most digit to the right-sided three-digit number of the result, we will get
629+1 = 630

Step-by-step explanation:
Given numbers,
[tex]26^{39}\text{ and }39^{26}[/tex]
∵ HCF ( 26, 39 ) = 13,
That is, we need to make both numbers with the exponent 13.
[tex]26^{39}=((13\times 2)^3)^{13}=(13^3\times 2^3)^{13}=(13^3\times 8)^{13}=(13^2\times 104)^{13}[/tex]

1880 milliliter (mL)=_____ pints (pts) ?
Answer:
1880 milliliter (mL) = 3.97 pints (pts)
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem can be solved as a rule of three problem.
In a rule of three problem, the first step is identifying the measures and how they are related, if their relationship is direct of inverse.
When the relationship between the measures is direct, as the value of one measure increases, the value of the other measure is going to increase too.
When the relationship between the measures is inverse, as the value of one measure increases, the value of the other measure will decrease.
Unit conversion problems, like this one, is an example of a direct relationship between measures.
1 milliliter (mL) is equal to 0.002 pints. How many pints are 1880 milliliter (mL)? We have the following rule of three
1 mL - 0.002 pints
1880 mL - x pints
x = 1880*0.002
x = 3.97 pints
There are 3.97 pints in 1880 milliliters.
You deposit the same $10,000 into a bank account at 4% annual interest. How long will it take for the $10,000 to compound to $30,000?
N= I/Y= PV= PMT= FV= P/Y=
Answer:
time = 28 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
principal amount = $10,000
rate = 4%
total amount = $30,000
According to compound interest formula
[tex]A\ =\ P(1+r)^t[/tex]
where, A = total amount
P = principal amount
r = rate
t = time in years
so, from the question we can write,
[tex]30000\ =\ 10000(1+0.04)^t[/tex]
[tex]=>\ \dfrac{30000}{10000}\ =\ (1+0.04)^t[/tex]
[tex]=>\ 3\ =\ (1.04)^t[/tex]
by taking log on both sides, we will get
=> log3 = t.log(1.04)
[tex]=>\ t\ =\ \dfrac{log3}{log1.04}[/tex]
=> t = 28.01
So, the time taken to get the amount from 10000 to 30000 is 28 years.
Prove using the principle of mathematical induction: (i) The number of diagonals of a convex polygon with n vertices is n(n − 3)/2, for n ≥ 4, (ii) 2n < n! for for all n > k > 0, discover the value of k before doing induction.
Step-by-step explanation:
Proof for i)
We will prove by mathematical induction that, for every natural [tex]n\geq 4[/tex], the number of diagonals of a convex polygon with n vertices is [tex]\frac{n(n-3)}{2}[/tex].
In this proof we will use the expression d(n) to denote the number of diagonals of a convex polygon with n vertices
Base case:
First, observe that:, for n=4, the number of diagonals is
[tex]2=\frac{n(n-3)}{2}[/tex]
Inductive hypothesis:
Given a natural [tex]n \geq 4[/tex],
[tex]d(n)=\frac{n(n-3)}{2}[/tex]
Now, we will assume the induction hypothesis and then use this assumption, involving n, to prove the statement for n + 1.
Inductive step:
Observe that, given a convex polygon with n vertices, wich we will denote by P(n), if we add a new vertix (transforming P(n) into a convex polygon with n+1 vertices, wich we will denote by P(n+1)) we have that:
Every diagonal in P(n) will still be a diagonal in P(n+1). One (and only one) side of P(n) will be a diagonal in P(n+1).There would be an extra n-2 diagonals (those that connect with the new added vertix).Because of these observation we know that, for every [tex]n\geq 4[/tex],
[tex]d(n+1)=d(n)+1+(n-2)=d(n)+n-1[/tex]
Therefore:
[tex]d(n+1)=d(n)+n-1=\frac{n(n-3)}{2}+n-1=\frac{n^2-3n+2n-2}{2}=\frac{n^2-n-2}{2}=\frac{(n+1)(n-2)}{2}[/tex]
With this we have proved our statement to be true for n+1.
In conlusion, for every natural [tex]n \geq 4[/tex],
[tex]d(n)=\frac{n(n-3)}{2}[/tex]
Proof for ii)
Observe that:
For n=1 [tex]2n=2>1=n![/tex]For n=2 [tex]2n=4>2=n![/tex]For n=3 [tex]2n=6=n![/tex]Then, the statement is not true for n=1,2,3.
We will prove by mathematical induction that, for every natural [tex]n \geq 4[/tex],
[tex]2n<n![/tex].
Base case:
For n=4, [tex]2n=8<24=n![/tex]
Inductive hypothesis:
Given a natural [tex]n \geq 4[/tex], [tex]2n<n![/tex]
Now, we will assume the induction hypothesis and then use this assumption, involving n, to prove the statement for n + 1.
Inductive step:
Observe that,
[tex]n!+2\leq (n+1)! \iff n!+2\leq n!(n+1) \iff 1+\frac{2}{n!}\leq n+1 \iff 2\leq n*n![/tex]
wich is true as we are assuming [tex]n\geq 4[/tex]. Therefore:
[tex]2(n+1)=2n+2<n!+2\leq (n+1)![/tex]
With this we have proved our statement to be true for n+1.
In conlusion, for every natural [tex]n \geq 4[/tex],
[tex]2n<n![/tex]
In a sample of 408 new websites registered on the Internet, 37 were anonymous (i.e., they shielded their name and contact information). (a) Construct a 95 percent confidence interval for the proportion of all new websites that were anonymous. (Round your answers to 4 decimal places.)
Answer: [tex](0.0628,\ 0.1186)[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Significance level : [tex]\alpha:1-0.95=0.05[/tex]
Critical value : [tex]z_{\alpha/2}=\pm1.96[/tex]
Sample size : n= 408
Proportion of new websites registered on the Internet were anonymous :
[tex]\hat{p}=\dfrac{37}{408}\approx0.0907[/tex]
The formula to find the confidence interval for population proportion is given by :-
[tex]\hat{p}\pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}[/tex]
i.e. [tex]0.0907\pm (1.96)\sqrt{\dfrac{0.0907(1-0.0907)}{408}}[/tex]
[tex]=0.0907\pm0.0278665515649\\\\\approx 0.0907\pm0.0279\\\\=(0.0907-0.0279,\ 0.0907+0.0279)\\\\=(0.0628,\ 0.1186)[/tex]
Hence, the 95 percent confidence interval for the proportion of all new websites that were anonymous = [tex](0.0628,\ 0.1186)[/tex]
Way back in the olden days, Blockbuster tallied all their US movie rental data and found that on average, individuals rent 10 movies a year with a standard deviation of 3. Treat these as population statistics. They wanted to see if movie rental rates in Yuma, Arizona, were different from those of the country as a whole (why Yuma? Who knows ). A random sample of 25 blockbuster members in Yuma yielded a mean rental rate of 11.3 movies per year. Use alpha = .05
By considering the given information we have ,
[tex]H_0: \mu = 10\\\\ H_a: \mu\neq10[/tex]
Since, the alternative hypothesis is two tailed so the test is a two-tailed test.
Given : Population mean : [tex]\mu=10[/tex]
Standard deviation: [tex]\sigma= 3[/tex]
Sample size : n=25 , whihc is less than 30 so the sample is small and we use t-test.
Sample mean : [tex]\overline{x}=11.3[/tex]
Significance level : [tex]\alpha= 0.5[/tex]
Formula to find t-test statistic is given by :-
[tex]t=\dfrac{\overline{x}-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
i.e. [tex]t=\dfrac{11.3-10}{\dfrac{3}{\sqrt{25}}}\approx2.17[/tex]
By using the standard normal distribution table,
The p-value corresponds 2.17 (two-tailed)=0.0300068
Since , the p-value is less than the significance level, so we reject the null hypothesis.
Hence, we conclude that there are enough evidence to to support the claim that movie rental rates in Yuma, Arizona, were different from those of the country as a whole .
A hypothesis test is conducted to see if the average movie rental rate in Yuma, Arizona, is statistically different from the national average. This problem is resolved in several steps including stating hypotheses, formulating an analysis plan, analyzing sample data, and interpreting the results. The rental rate is then compared to a critical value determined by the significance level (α = .05).
Explanation:The subject here is a hypothesis testing problem related to the mean rental rate of DVDs in Yuma, Arizona. Blockbuster found that the average nation-wide movie rental rate was 10 movies per year with a standard deviation of 3. In Yuma, a sample of 25 people resulted in a mean rental rate of 11.3 movies per year. The company wanted to check whether this difference was significant or not. So, they used an alpha level of .05 to conduct this hypothesis test.
Here are the steps of the hypothesis test:
State the hypotheses. The null hypothesis H0 would be that the mean rental rate in Yuma is the same as the average across the US (μ = 10). The alternative hypothesis Ha would be that the mean rental rate in Yuma is not equal to the average across the US (μ ≠ 10).Formulate an analysis plan. For this analysis, the significance level is defined as alpha (α) = .05. As per the conditions, the population standard deviation (σ) is known and equals 3.Analyze sample data. Using the sample data and the information provided, we can calculate the test statistic (z).Interpret the results. If the test statistic is beyond the critical value, we reject the null hypothesis. Otherwise, we do not have enough evidence to reject it.Learn more about Hypothesis Testing here:https://brainly.com/question/34171008

the earth rotates about its axis once every 23 hours, 56 minutes and 4 seconds. Approximate the number of radians the earth rotates in one second.
Answer:
[tex]\frac{\pi}{43082}\text{ radians per second}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Time taken in one rotation of earth = 23 hours, 56 minutes and 4 seconds.
Since, 1 minute = 60 seconds and 1 hour = 3600 seconds,
⇒ Time taken in one rotation of earth = (23 × 3600 + 56 × 60 + 4) seconds
= 86164 seconds,
Now, the number of radians in one rotation = 2π,
That is, 86164 seconds = 2π radians
[tex]\implies 1\text{ second }=\frac{2\pi}{86164}=\frac{\pi}{43082}\text{ radians}[/tex]
Hence, the number of radians in one second is [tex]\frac{\pi}{43082}[/tex]
The Earth completes a 2π radian rotation about its axis in 23 hours, 56 minutes, and 4 seconds. After converting this time to 86,164 seconds, the number of radians the Earth rotates in one second can be calculated by dividing 2π by 86,164, giving a result of approximately 0.00007292115 radians.
Explanation:The Earth completes one full rotation about its axis in 23 hours, 56 minutes and 4 seconds. This rotation can be converted into radians, using the principle that one complete rotation is equivalent to 2π radians. So first, convert the rotation time into seconds: (23 x 60 x 60) + (56 x 60) + 4 = 86,164 seconds. Therefore, the Earth rotates through 2π radians in this time.
Now, we want to find out how many radians the Earth rotates in one second. To calculate this, divide 2π (which represent a full rotation in radians), by the total number of seconds in one rotation: 2π/86,164. This will give you approximately 0.00007292115 radians, which is the angular velocity or the number of radians the Earth rotates in one second.

Step 3: write an equivalent expression for sin4x that does not contain powers of trigonometric functions greater than 1.
Answer: I don't know if you wanted to write sin(4x) or [tex]sin^{4} (x)[/tex] , but here we go:
ok, sin(4x) = sin(2x + 2x), and we know that:
sin (a + b) = sin(a)*cos(b) + sin(b)*cos(a)
then sin (2x + 2x) = sin(2x)*cos(2x) + cos(2x)*sin(2x) = 2cos(2x)*sin(2x)
So 2*cos(2x)*sin(2x) is equivalent of sin(4x)
If you writed [tex]sin^{4} (x)[/tex] then:
[tex]sin^{4} (x) = sin^{2} (x)*sin^{2} (x)[/tex]
and using that: [tex]sins^{2} (x) = \frac{1-cos(2x)}{2}[/tex]
we have: [tex]sin^{2} (x)*sin^{2} (x) = \frac{(1-cos(2x))*(1-cos(2x))}{4} = \frac{1-2cos(2x) + cos^{2}(2x) }{4}[/tex]
and using that: [tex]cos^{2} (x) = \frac{1 + cos(2x)}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1-2cos(2x) + cos^{2}(2x) }{4} = \frac{1-2cos(2x) + \frac{1+cos(4x)}{2} }{4}[/tex]
You can keep simplifying it, but there is your representation of [tex]sin^{4} (x)[/tex] that does not contain powers of trigonometric functions greater than 1.
To write an equivalent expression for sin(4x) without powers of trigonometric functions greater than 1, use the trigonometric identity sin(2x) = 2sin(x)cos(x). Apply this identity twice to get 4sin(x)cos(x)(cos^2(x) - sin^2(x)).
Explanation:To write an equivalent expression for sin(4x) that does not contain powers of trigonometric functions greater than 1, we can use the trigonometric identity sin(2x) = 2sin(x)cos(x). By applying this identity twice, we get:
sin(4x) = sin(2(2x)) = 2sin(2x)cos(2x)Using the identity sin(2x) = 2sin(x)cos(x) again, we have 2sin(2x)cos(2x) = 2(2sin(x)cos(x))(cos^2(x) - sin^2(x))Simplifying further, we obtain 2(2sin(x)cos(x))(cos^2(x) - sin^2(x)) = 4sin(x)cos(x)(cos^2(x) - sin^2(x))Therefore, an equivalent expression for sin(4x) that does not contain powers of trigonometric functions greater than 1 is 4sin(x)cos(x)(cos^2(x) - sin^2(x)).

In an arithmetic sequence, the nth term an is given by the formula An=a1+(n−1)d, where a1is the first term and d is the common difference. Similarly, in a geometric sequence, the nth term is given by an=a1•rn−1.
Use these formulas to determine the indicated term in the given sequence.
The 19th term of 19,42,65,88,...
Answer: 433
Step-by-step explanation:
The given sequence : 19,42,65,88,...
Here we can see that the difference in each of the two consecutive terms is 23. [88-65=23, 65-42=23, 42-19=23]
i.e. it has a common difference of 23.
Therefore, it is an arithmetic sequence .
In an arithmetic sequence, the nth term an is given by the formula[tex]A_n=a_1+(n-1)d[/tex] , where [tex]a_1[/tex] is the first term and d is the common difference.
For the given sequence , [tex]a_1=19[/tex] and [tex]d=23[/tex]
Then, to find the 19th term of the sequence, we put n= 19 in the above formula:-
[tex]A_{19}=19+(19-1)(23)=19+(18)(23)=19+414+433[/tex]
Hence, the 19th term of the sequence = 433
Final answer:
To find the 19th term of the arithmetic sequence 19, 42, 65, 88, ..., the common difference (23) is determined from the sequence and applied in the arithmetic sequence formula. Substituting the values into the formula, the 19th term is calculated to be 433.
Explanation:
To find the 19th term, we must first determine the common difference, d, of the sequence. Observing the given sequence, we see that the difference between consecutive terms is 42 - 19 = 23. Therefore, the common difference is 23.
Next, we apply the formula for the nth term of an arithmetic sequence which is An = a1 + (n-1)d. Here, a1 is the first term, n is the term number, and d is the common difference.
Substituting the values for the 19th term, we have: A19 = 19 + (19-1) × 23 = 19 + 18 × 23 = 19 + 414 = 433. Therefore, the 19th term of the sequence is 433.
