Answer:

Value of n when sum is 156 is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: function to find sum of first n consecutive even numbers, S = n² + n where n ≥ 2

To find: value of n when Sum = 156

Consider, the function

S = n² + n

156 = n² + n

n² + n - 156 = 0

n² + 13n - 12n - 156 = 0

n ( n + 13 ) - 12 ( n + 13 ) = 0

( n + 13 )( n - 12 ) = 0

So, n + 13 = 0    nd     n - 12 = 0

⇒ n = -13    and  n = 12

n cannot be less than 2, So, value of n = 12

Therefore, Value of n when sum is 156 is 12

The following are the choices on this question:
 A.6
 B. 39
 C. 26
 D. 12   
The answer is option D. 12.

Check this out:
S=n² + n
S= 12² + 12
     (you can get the square of 12 by multiplying 12 by itself: 12 × 12)
S=144 +12
S=156

The following table shows the number of hours some teachers in two schools expect students to spend on homework each week: Schoo
Lerok [7]

Answer:

For school A: Minimum=6, Q₁=6.5, Median= 14, Q₃=16, Maximum=17, IQR=9.5

For school B: Minimum=5, Q₁=8, Median= 12, Q₃=15.5, Maximum=19, IQR=7.5

No, the box plots are not symmetric.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

The given data sets are

School A : 9,14,15,17,17,7,15,6,6

School B : 12,8,13,11,19,15,16,5,8

Arrange the data in ascending order.

School A : 6,6,7,9,14,15,15,17,17

School B : 5,8,8,11,12,13,15,16,19

Divide each data set in four equal parts.

School A : (6,6),(7,9),14,(15,15),(17,17)

School B : (5,8),(8,11),12,(13,15),(16,19)

For school A:

Minimum=6, Q₁=6.5, Median= 14, Q₃=16, Maximum=17

Interquartile range of the data is

IQR=Q_3-Q_1=16-6.5=9.5

For school B:

Minimum=5, Q₁=8, Median= 12, Q₃=15.5, Maximum=19

Interquartile range of the data is

IQR=Q_3-Q_1=15.5-8=7.5

Part B:

The box plots are not symmetric because the data values are different. Five number summary and IQR of both the data set are different.

Including Jose, there are eight people in his family.
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

840

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the order matters, we use the permutations formula to solve this question.

Permutations formula:

The number of possible permutations of x elements from a set of n elements is given by the following formula:

P_{(n,x)} = \frac{n!}{(n-x)!}

In this question:

The first seat is Jose's.

The remaining four are organized among the other 7 members. So

P_{(7,4)} = \frac{7!}{(7-4)!} = 840

So the correct answer is:

840

Write the multiple regression equation for miles per gallon as the response variable. Use weight and horsepower as predictor var
Naily [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Response Variable: Miles per gallon

Predictor Variables: Weight, Horsepower

The multiple regression equation would be: M = aW + bH + c

where M = miles per gallon

a = slope of the graph of W on M OR rate of change in M due to change in W

W = weight

b = slope of the graph of H on M OR rate of change in M due to change in H

H = horsepower

c = intercept of M on the y-axis OR constant variable

How might the car rental company use this model?

The car rental company might use the regression model to determine the following:

- Effect of weight (of car) on miles run per gallon (of premium motor spirit)

- Effect of horsepower on miles per gallon; etc.

A quadratic function has a line of symmetry at x = –3.5 and a zero at –9. What is the distance from the given zero to the line o
kap26 [50]

Given:

A quadratic function has a line of symmetry at x = –3.5 and a zero at –9.

To find:

The other zero.

Solution:

We know that, the line of symmetry divides the graph of quadratic function in two congruent parts. So, both zeroes are equidistant from the line of symmetry.

It means, line of symmetry passes through the mid point of both zeroes.

Let the other zero be x.

-3.5=\dfrac{(-9)+x}{2}

Multiply both sides by 2.

-7=-9+x

Add 9 on both sides.

-7+9=-9+x+9

2=x

Therefore, the other zero of the quadratic function is 2.
