The singing club keeps sheet music in files. Each file holds 12 sheets. Of all the club's music, 2/3 fit into 3 files. How many

sheets of music does the club have?

1 file -> 12 sheets

Now for 3 files -> 3*12 = 36 sheets, it takes up 2/3 of the total

So the total number of sheets: 36 / (2/3) = 54

How many terms in the arithmetic sequence(2,4,6,8....) will give sum of 600

andriy [413]

Answer:

24 terms

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of an arithmetic sequence is the average of the first and last terms, multiplied by the number of terms. The last term is given by ...

an = a1 + (n-1)d

We have a sequence with first term a1 = 2 and common difference d = 2. So the last term is ...

an = 2+ 2(n -1) = 2n

Then the average of first and last terms times the number of terms is ...

Sn = 600 = n(2 + 2n)/2 = n(n+1) . . . . . . close to n²

We can solve the quadratic in n, or we can estimate the value of n as the integer just below the square root of 600.

√600 ≈ 24.5

so we believe n = 24.

S24 = 24·25 = 600 . . . . . . as required.

Drag and drop an answer to each box to correctly complete the explanation for deriving the formula for the volume of a sphere.

Advocard [28]

The volume of a sphere is given by:

$V= \frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}$

So, we need to deduct this equation. We will walk through Calculus on the concept of a solid of revolution that is a solid figure that is obtained by rotating a plane curve around some straight line (the axis of revolution<span>) that lies on the same plane. We know from calculus that:

</span> $V=\pi \int_{a}^{b}[f(x)]^{2}dx$
<span>
Then, according to the concept of solid of revolution we are going to rotate a circumference shown in the figure, then:

</span> $x^{2}+y^{2}=r^{2}$
<span>
Isolationg y:

</span> $y= \sqrt{r^{2}-x^{2}}$ <span>

So,

</span> $f(x)=y=\sqrt{r^{2}-x^{2}}$ <span>

</span> $V=\pi \int_{a}^{b}[\sqrt{r^{2}-x^{2}}]^{2}dx$
<span>
</span> $V=\pi \int_{a}^{b}(r^{2}-x^{2})dx$ <span>

being -r and r the limits of this integral.

</span> $V=\pi \int_{-r}^{r}(r^{2}-x^{2})dx$
<span>
Solving:

</span> $V=\pi[r^{2}x-\frac{x^{3}}{3}]\right|_{-r}^{r}$

Finally:
<span>
</span> $V=\pi(r^{3}-\frac{r^{3}}{3})-\pi(-r^{3}+\frac{r^{3}}{3})= \frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}$ <span>
</span><span>
</span>

1.3 puzzle time why did the fraction jump into boiling water

Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

The fraction jumped into boiling water because it wanted to be reduced.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a maths riddle about fractions. We often see fractions that we might feel could be reduced. So, if these kinds of fractions jumps into a boiling water, they get reduced. The riddle is rather funny though.
