The is Answer:

82

Explanation:

We observe that difference between first and second terms <span>=12−5=7</span>
Similarly difference between second and third terms <span>=19−12=7</span>

It shows that the given sequence of numbers is an arithmetic progression with common difference equal to 7.

We know that <span>nth</span> term of an AP whose first term is <span>a1</span> and whose common difference is d is given by 
<span><span>an</span>=<span>a1</span>+<span>(n–1)</span>d</span>

To find the <span>12th</span> term, insert given values in the general expression
<span><span>a12</span>=5+<span>(12–1)</span>7</span>
<span><span>a12</span>=5+<span>(11)</span>7=5+77=<span>82</span></span>

Mrs. Ronilo had her students make a stem-and-leaf plot of the heights of all of the students in the class. The mean was 55. Dave
shutvik [7]
Given that the mean is 55 inches  and Dave is 57 inches, he would have increased the mean of the height in the stem-and-leaf plot that the students were making. This is however is also dependent upon the central tendency that was used, in this case the central tendency is mean or average.

A recipe calls for 2 tsp of salt, 1 tsp of pepper, and 4 tsp of garlic powder. How much pepper and garlic powder would you need
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

amount of pepper required= 7.5 tsp

amount of garlic powder required = 30 tsp

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

amount of salt used for small batch of the recipe = 2 tsp

amount of pepper used for small batch of the recipe = 1 tsp

amount of garlic powder used for small batch of the recipe = 4 tsp

amount of salt used for the larger batch = 15 tsp

                                                             = 2 x 7.5 tsp

                                                             = amount of salt used for small batch the recipe x 7.5

So,

the amount of pepper needed for the larger batch= 7.5 x amount of pepper used for the small batch of recipe

                                                                      = 7.5 x 1 tsp

                                                                       = 7.5 tsp

the amount of garlic powder needed for the larger batch= 7.5 x amount of garlic powder used for the small batch of recipe

                                                                                          = 7.5 x 4 tsp

                                                                                          = 30 tsp

Using the U- Substitution u=sqrt(2x), integral form 2-8 dx/ sqrt(2x) + 1 is equivalent to ...
AleksAgata [21]
We will use u-substitute:u= \sqrt{2x} , \frac{du}{dx}= \frac{1}{ \sqrt{2x} }= \frac{1}{u}Then for substitution:dx=u du. and integral becomes:\int { \frac{u}{u+1} } \, du = \int { \frac{u+1-1}{u+1} } \, du= \int{1} \, du- \int { \frac{1}{u-1} } \, dx=u-ln(u+1)=\sqrt{2x}-ln( \sqrt{2x}+1). Now we will change the values of limits: \sqrt{16}-ln( \sqrt{16}+1)-( \sqrt{4}-ln( \sqrt{4}+1))=4-ln(5)-2+ln(3)=2+ln(0,6)=2-0.51=1.49
