Answer:

Dawn has 32 pens.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Let No. of pens Alice has = A
  • Let No. of pens Maurice has = M
  • Let no of pens Paul has = P
  • Let no. of pens Suzy has = S
  • Let no of pens Dawn has = D

Given :

  • A = 7M
  • P = 2/3 (A + S)  
  • D = P + 12
  • S = 1/2 M
  • If S = 2 {Given}
  • M = 4    [∵ S = 1/2 M → M = 2S = 2X(2) ]
  • A = 28  [ ∵ A = 7M → A = 7 x 4 ]
  • P = 20  [∵ P = 2/3 (A+S) → P = 2/3 (28 + 2) = 2/3 (30) ]
  • D = 32  [ ∵ D = P + 12 → D = 20 + 12 ]

Answer:

5th term of sequence = -18

nth term of the sequence = -5n + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Difference between successive and previous term of the output,

T_{2}-T_{1} = -3 - 2

           = -5

Similarly, T_{3}-T_{2}=-8-(-3)

                            = -5

There is a common difference 'd' = (-5)

Therefore, the sequence formed will be an arithmetic sequence.

First term of the sequence 'a' = 2

Explicit formula of an arithmetic sequence, T_{n} = a + (n - 1)d  [n = input value]

T_{n} = 2 + (n - 1)(-5)

    = 2 - 5n + 5

    = -5n + 7

5th term of this sequence,

T_{5}=2+(5-1)(-5)

    = 2 - 20

    = -18

Therefore, 5th term of sequence = -18

                  nth term of the sequence = -5n + 7

I am taking my first programming course, so my apologies if this is a dumb question/possibly classified by the wrong category on this site. One of the exercise problems I am working on is the following:

Define a function print_total_inches, with parameters num_feet and num_inches, that prints the total number of inches. Note: There are 12 inches in a foot. Ex:

print_total_inches(5, 8) prints:

Total inches: 68

The scores of eighth-grade students in a math test are normally distributed with a mean of 57.5 and a standard deviation of 6.5.
Anna11 [10]
Approximately 68% of a normal distribution lies within one standard deviation of the mean, so this corresponds to students with scores between (57.5 - 6.5, 57.5 + 6.5) = (51, 64)

Wang Hao wants to spend at most $15 on dairy products. Each liter of goat milk costs $2.40 and each liter of cow's milk costs $1
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

2.40g + 1.20c ≤15

Step-by-step explanation:

Each liter of goat milk costs $2.40 and each liter of cow's milk costs $1.20

Let g = liters of goats milk

c = liters of cows milk

What we are buying is the liters times the cost

2.40g + 1.20c

This must be less than or equal to 15 dollars

2.40g + 1.20c ≤15
