Let $a_1$, $a_2$, . . . , $a_{10}$ be an arithmetic sequence. if $a_1 + a_3 + a_5 + a_7 + a_9 = 17$ and $a_2 + a_4 + a_6 + a_8 + a_{10} = 15$, what is the value of $a_1$?
giving brainliest>

Answers

Answer 1

Because [tex]a_1[/tex] through [tex]a_{10}[/tex] are in arithmetic progression, there is some fixed number [tex]d[/tex] between consecutive terms. This means we have

[tex]a_2 = a_1 + d[/tex]

[tex]a_3 = a_2 + d = a_1 + 2d[/tex]

[tex]a_4 = a_3 + d = a_1 + 3d[/tex]

and so on, with the general [tex]n[/tex]-th term

[tex]a_n = a_1 + (n-1) d[/tex]

Then we can write each given equation in terms of [tex]a_1[/tex] and [tex]d[/tex] :

[tex]a_1 + a_3 + a_5 + a_7 + a_9 = 17[/tex]

[tex]\implies a_1 + (a_1+2d) + (a_1+4d) + (a_1 + 6d) + (a_1 + 8d) = 17[/tex]

[tex]\implies 5a_1 + 20d = 17[/tex]

and

[tex]a_2 + a_4 + a_6 + a_8 + a_{10} = 15[/tex]

[tex]\implies (a_1+d) + (a_1+3d) + (a_1+5d) + (a_1+7d) + (a_1+9d) = 15[/tex]

[tex]\implies 5a_1+25d= 15[/tex]

Eliminate [tex]d[/tex] and solve for [tex]a_1[/tex] :

[tex]5 (5a_1 + 20d) - 4 (5a_1 + 25d) = 5\times17-4\times15[/tex]

[tex]\implies 5a_1 = 25[/tex]

[tex]\implies \boxed{a_1 = 5}[/tex]

Consider the quadratic equation x2 10x 27 = 0. completing the square leads to the equivalent equation (x )2 = .

Answers

The solution to the given quadratic expression using the completing the square is x = ±√-2 -5

Completing the square method

This is a method of factoring quadratic expression. Given the quadratic function.

x^2 + 10x + 27 = 0

Subtract 27 from both sides

x^2 + 10x = -27

Complete the square

x^2 +10x +5^2 = -27 + 25

(x+5)² = -2
x +5 = ±√-2
x = ±√-2 -5

Hence the solution to the given quadratic expression using the completing the square is  x = ±√-2 -5

what is the essence of calculus?

Answers

Differential Calculus, or Differentiation

If we have a function of one variable, ie of the form [tex]y=f(x)[/tex], then in its most basic form differentiation is the study of how a small change in one variable [tex]x[/tex] affects the other variable [tex]y[/tex].

As an real life example, consider the average speed of a moving car:

average speed = distance travelled/ time taken

Obviously, this is an average by definition, but if there existed a formal mathematical link between distance and time, could we build a function that would tell us the instantaneous velocity at every given moment? The study of differential calculus gives strategies for calculating the ratio of a little change in distance to a small change in time, and then calculating the real instantaneous speed by making the small change infinitely small.

Similarly if we wanted to find the gradient of the tangent to a curve at some particular point [tex]A[/tex] we would estimate the gradient by using a chord to a nearby point [tex]B[/tex]. As we move this nearby point [tex]B[/tex]  closer to the tangent point [tex]A[/tex] the slope of the chord approaches the slope of the tangent with more and more accuracy. Again differential calculus provides techniques for us to make the point [tex]B[/tex] infinitesimally close to the point [tex]A[/tex] o that we can calculate the actual gradient of the tangent.

Integral Calculus, or Integration

Suppose we wanted to calculate the area under a curve, [tex]y=f(x)[/tex],  bounded the [tex]x[/tex] =axis, and two points [tex]a[/tex] and [tex]b.[/tex] We could start by splitting the interval  [tex][a,b][/tex]  into [tex]n[/tex] regular strips, and estimating the area under the curve using trapezia (this is the essence of the trapezium rule which provides an estimate of such an area). If we increase [tex]n[/tex] then generally we would hope for a better approximation. The study of integration provides techniques for us to take an infinitely large number of infinitesimally small strips to gain an exact solution.

The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus

Given the above two notions, it would appear that there is no connection between them at first., The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, on the other hand, is a theorem that connects the rate of change of the area function (which determines the area under a curve) to the function itself. In other words, the area function's derivative equals the function itself.

Visual for  Fundamental Theorem of Calculus for integrals:

[tex]\int\limits^b_af {(x)} \, dx =F(b)-F(a).[/tex]

where F is an antiderivative of [tex]f[/tex]

Physics, Chemistry, all engineering sciences, statistics, economics, finance, biology, computer science, linguistics, to name but a few, are all areas that would be a desert without the use of calculus.

Leibnitz and Newton worked to define the velocity of a planet moving on a curved trajectory. That was not possible without calculus, and both had to invent differential calculus. Differential calculus allows to compare quantities along a curve, and thus their time rate of change.

All of classical physics can be summarized in this operation. Given second derivative (which is Force/mass), find the position as a function of time. This process is called integration. Half of calculus is made with integration, the other half with derivation. All of classical physics rests on these two parts of the calculus.

Quantum mechanics, quantum field theory, electromagnetism, fluid mechanics all use integration and derivation and much more. I rest my case. I hope this helps you gauge the place that calculus occupies in science.

What is an arithmetic operation?

It is defined as the operation in which we do the addition of numbers, subtraction, multiplication, and division. It has a basic four operators that is +, —, ×, and ÷.

We have:

= (20 x 100)

4 times smaller will be:

B) 204×100 = 20400

C) 20 – 25 = -5

D) 5×25​ = 100

Ou buy tomato sauce for $0.37 per ounce. one portion of potato gnocchi requires 3.5 ounces of tomato sauce. how much does the sauce for one portion cost? round to the nearest cent.

Answers

Answer:

  $1.30

Step-by-step explanation:

As with costs anywhere, you find the total cost by multiplying the unit cost by the number of units. Here, a unit is 1 ounce of tomato sauce. 3.5 units are used in the recipe. The unit cost is given as $0.37 per ounce.

__

  cost of sauce = (cost per ounce) × (number of ounces)

  = ($0.37) × 3.5 = $1.295

This rounds up to $1.30.

The sauce for one portion costs $1.30.

Acellus!!! Please help

Answers

Answer:   1

Reason:

The first peak is at x = 0. The next peak over is at x = 1. The difference is 1-0 = 1 which is the period.

The period is the amount of time needed to repeat the cycle.

The first peak occurs at x = 0, and the next peak occurs at x = 1. The difference between these two points is  1, which represents the period of the function.

The period of a function can be determined by finding the difference between two consecutive peaks or troughs.

To determine the period step by step, we start by identifying the first peak or trough of the function. In this case, it is x = 0.

Then, check for the next peak or trough, which is x = 1.

The difference between these two points gives  the period, which is 1 unit of time.

The period represents the length of time required for the function to complete one full cycle and repeat itself. It is an important concept in understanding the periodic behavior of functions.

we rearrange in ascending order (I chose ascending order).

Soo...

13, 15, 15, 15, 16, 17, 17 , 19, 19, 20, 22, 23.

so we cancel out (we cancel out left number, right number)

I mean

cancel out 13, cancel out 23

cancel out 15, cancel out 22

cancel out 15, cancel out 20 and so on.....

after that we will be left with 2 numbers which are 17 and 17.

NOTE: ( if we get 2 numbers instead of 1, then we add those 2 numbers and divide by 2)

so...

17 + 17 = 34

34/2 = 17.

the median of the set of numbers is equal to 17.
