===========================================
Explanation:
There are a few approaches. Here's one way to solve.
Let d be the common difference between the terms.
We add d to each term of this arithmetic sequence to get the next term.
First term = mSecond term = 12 = m+dThird term = n = (m+d)+d = m+2dFocusing on the second equation, we can solve for d like so
m+d = 12
d = 12-m
This is then plugged into the third equation
n = m+2d
n = m+2(12-m)
n = m+24-2m
n = 24-m
Therefore,
m+n = m+(24-m) = 24
It turns out that it doesn't matter what m and n are because m+n is always equal to 24 in this case.
-----------------
A more concrete example:
Let's say m = 2. We won't set up n just yet but we'll be able to compute it fairly soon.
Since m = 2, this means d = 12-m = 12-2 = 10. This is the gap between adjacent or neighboring terms.
If d = 10, then the third term must be n = 12+d = 12+10 = 22
We can then see that m+n = 2+22 = 24
-----------------
I'll do another example:
m = 5
d = 12-m = 12-5 = 7
n = 12+d = 7 = 19
m+n = 5+19 = 24
Whenever in doubt, or if you get stuck, it helps to come up with actual numeric values to hopefully clear things up.
-----------------
An alternative way to get the answer:
Let's try to determine what m+n is actually saying. We have 12 right in the middle of the first term (m) and third term (n). Because the gap between the numbers is the same (that being d), we know that 12 is the midpoint of m and n. It might help to draw out a number line to see what's going on.
The midpoint of m and n is (m+n)/2
Set this equal to 12 and isolate the "m+n"
(firstTerm+thirdTerm)/2 = second term
(m+n)/2 = 12
m+n = 2*12
m+n = 24
So in general, if the first three terms of the arithmetic sequence are m, k, n, then m+n = 2k.

Answer:
x =6
Step-by-step explanation:
5(x-2) = 14+x
Distribute
5x-10 = 14+x
Subtract x from each side
5x-x -10 = 14+x-x
4x-10 = 14
Add 10 to each side
4x-10+10 = 14+10
4x= 24
Divide by 4
4x/4 = 24/4
x =6
Answer:
5(×-2)=14+×
5x-10=14+x
5x-x=14+10
4x=24
x=6
Inverse trigonometry functions I need help finding the answers everything I’ve tried says it’s wrong
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions
cos theta = adj / hypotenuse
cos x = 13/20
Taking the inverse cos of each side
arccos ( cos x ) = arccos( 13/20)
x = arccos ( 13/20)
x =49.45839
x = 49 to the nearest whole number
sin theta = opp/ hyp
sin y = 13/20
Taking the inverse sin of each side
arcsin ( sin y ) = arcsin( 13/20)
y = arcsin ( 13/20)
y=40.5416
y = 41 to the nearest whole number

Answer:
The 19th term is 99.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can write a direct formula and use it to find the 19th term. Recall that the direct formula for an arithmetic sequence is given by:
[tex]x_n = a + d(n-1)[/tex]
Where a is the initial term and d is the common difference.
Since the first term is 9 and the common difference is 5:
[tex]\displaystyle x _ n = 9+5(n-1)[/tex]
To find the 19th term, let n = 19. Thus:
[tex]x_{19} = 9+5(19-1)[/tex]
And evaluate:
[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} x_{19} &= 9+5(18) \\ &= 9+90 \\ &= 99\end{aligned}[/tex]
The 19th term is 99.

Part A: The area of a square is (16x2 - 8x + 1) square units. Determine the length of each side of th
square by factoring the area expression completely. Show your work. (5 points)
A=16x²-8x+1
16x²-8x+1=l²
(16x²-4x)-(4x+1)=l²
4x(4x-1)-1(4x-1)=l²
x=1/4 or 1
Therefore
since x=1/4
l²=1/4=>l=>√(1/4)
l=1/2
since x=1
l²=1=>l=>√1
l=1
Therefore the length of each sides
1 or 1/2
Select all that apply to the following statement. There is a LOW correlation between cheating and final grades in Math256. Group of answer choices Correlation requires both variables to be either qualitative or quantitative. The correlation has no unit of measurement; it is just a number. The correlation must specify which is the explanatory variable and which is the response variable Correlation requires both variables to be quantitative
Answer:
The correlation has no unit of measurement; it is just a number.
Correlation requires both variables to be quantitative.
Step-by-step explanation:
Correlation refers to the measure of the relationship between two variables. The correlation between two variables is measured using the correlation Coefficient which may take any value between - 1 and 1 ; the closer the correlation Coefficient is to either 1 or - 1, the greater the relationship with negative depicting a negative association and positive depicting a positive relationship between the variables. The correlation Coefficient requires that both variables are numeric (quantitative). The correlation Coefficient has no unit of measurement.
What is the degree of this polynomial?
5 + 2s
=====================================================
Explanation:
We can rewrite 5 as 5s^0, since s^0 = 1 where s is nonzero.
Think of 2s as 2s^1
With those ideas in mind, the original polynomial turns into 5s^0 + 2s^1
Sorting the terms so that the largest exponent is first gets us the standard form 2s^1 + 5s^0
The largest exponent is the degree, so the degree is 1.

Which of the following polynomial equations has 1, 4, -5 as three of its roots?
x 2+4x-5=0
x 4+2x 3-5x+10=0
x 3-21x+20=0*
Answer: x³-21x+20=0
Step-by-step explanation:
To find which polynomial has 1, 4, -5 as the roots, all we have to do is equal each root to 0 and multiply all factors together.
1 is (x-1)=0
4 is (x-4)=0
-5 is (x+5)=0
Now, we just multiply them together.
(x-1)(x-4)(x+5)=0 [FOIL]
(x²-4x-x+4)(x+5)=0 [combine like terms]
(x²-5x+4)(x+5)=0 [FOIL]
x³+5x²-5x²-25x+4x+20=0 [combine like terms]
x³-21x+20=0
Now we know x³-21x+20=0 is the polynomial with those roots.

Answer:
B: the accuracy rate of most people is barely above the 50% guessing level
Step-by-step explanation:
Bond and DePaul carried out a research and analysis on the accuracy of deception judgments in 2016.
This research involved synthesizing of results gotten from 206 research documents as well as a total of 24483 judges.
In this research and analysis, there were a couple of discoveries when people tried to discriminate lies from the truth and these discoveries include; average percentage of correct lie-truth judgments, percentage of those who correctly classified lies as deception and also percentage of those who classified truths as non-deceptive e.t.c. In conclusion, part of their discoveries was that the accuracy rate of most people is barely above the 50% guessing level.
This corresponds to option B.
Identify the number of vertices, edges, and faces of the polyhedron. Use your results to verify Euler's formula.
The Euler's formula relates the vertices, faces and the edges of a polyhedron.
The correct option is (e) [tex]V = 6[/tex] [tex]E = 10[/tex] [tex]F = 6[/tex] [tex]6- 10 + 6 = 2[/tex]
First, we count the number of faces. This is the flat parts of the shape.
The attached shape has 6 flat surfaces.
So:
[tex]F = 6[/tex]
Next, we count the number of edges. This is where two faces meet.
The attached shape has 10 edges;
So:
[tex]E = 10[/tex]
Lastly, we count the number of vertices. This is where two edges meet.
The attached shape has 6 vertices.
So:
[tex]V = 6[/tex]
Using Euler's formula, we have:
[tex]V - E + F = 2[/tex]
Substitute values for V, E and F
[tex]6- 10 + 6 = 2[/tex]
[tex]2 = 2[/tex]
Hence, the polyhedron has 6 vertices, 10 edges and 6 faces

There are 38 chocolates in a box, all identically shaped. There are 8 filled with nuts, 16 with caramel, and 14 are solid chocolate. You randomly select one piece, eat it and then select a second piece. Find the probability of selecting 2 solid chocolate in a row
Answer:
0.1294
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of chocolates in box = 38
Number of nuts = 8
Number of caramel = 16
Number of solid chocolate = 14
Since 2 are selected in a row and not replaced, then;
Probability of first being solid chocolate = 14/38
Probability of second being solid chocolate after first one = 13/37
Thus;
P(2 selected in a row being solid chocolate) = 14/38 × 13/37 = 0.1294

O 5/13
O 12/13
O 12/5
O 13/12
Answer:
12/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that trig function tan = opposite / adjacent
Find tan A
Opposite side of angle A = 24
Adjacent of A = 10
Tan (A) = 24/10
24/10 can be simplified to 12/5
Answer:
[tex]\frac{12}{5}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Tan is equal to [tex]\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex]. The side opposite to angle A is BC while the side adjacent to it is AC. This means tan(A) is [tex]\frac{BC}{AC}[/tex]. It is given that BC is 24 and AC is 10, so we can substitute those values in and simplify:
tan(A) = [tex]\frac{24}{10} = \frac{12}{5}[/tex]
