I tried that, then checked using:maddison10 said:5aiii)
now Sn = N/2 ( A + L) where A is 1st term and L is last term A= 30 L= 130 from part i)
50hrs = 3000minutes ( as all other parts are in minutes..)
so
3000=N/2 (30 + 160)
N= 37.5 if im not mistaken
so in the 38th lesson 50hrs will be completed...
i think 37.5 is still in 37th lesson, you shouldnt rounded it offmaddison10 said:5aiii)

yes u do know L equal to wat...coz its in it~Mystienu said:but you don't know what "L" equals though.
but it says predict~~matt_f64 said:u dont round up, it asks DURING which lesson so its DURING the 37th lesson...
Yup. That works out... the 30th lesson.Mystienu said:um... shouldn't it be
3000 = n / 2 ( 2 x 30 + 5 (n-1) )
6000 = 60n + 5n^2 - 5n
6000 = 55n + 5n^2
ultimately n = 30?
i had what u sayMystienu said:um... shouldn't it be
3000 = n / 2 ( 2 x 30 + 5 (n-1) )
6000 = 60n + 5n^2 - 5n
6000 = 55n + 5n^2
ultimately n = 30?
i think i got n = 29 point something, so i did S29 and S30, and got 48-ish hours and 51-ish hours respectively, so i took it as during the 29th lesson...dunno if that's right though..Mystienu said:um... shouldn't it be
3000 = n / 2 ( 2 x 30 + 5 (n-1) )
6000 = 60n + 5n^2 - 5n

Yah 45 ... 1991 + 45 = 2036 AD (I wrote AD)Sweet_Lemon said:oh~~ and it asked for which year....so i think i added 1991+38 or 45?? crap...think i added wrong....
I got up to the point where i had 8sin@ - 1 = 0Mystienu said:what did yous get for 8 a ii?
the answer for t = 45.4334... meaning that during the 46th year it reached 30 million meaning in the year 2037. If you sub in 45 and 46 into the equation you will see that the population for 45 is slightly under 30 million and hence it doesnt reach 30 million in 2036SpaceMonkey said:Yah 45 ... 1991 + 45 = 2036 AD (I wrote AD)
