Find an explicit formula for the arithmetic sequence -11, -3, 5, 13, ....
Note: the first term should be b(1).
b(n) =

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

b(n) = -11 + (n-1)*8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n be the sequence number, with n=1 the first number b(1) -11

The sequence changes by +8 each step.

b(1)   -11         + 8 =   -3

b(2)   -3          + 8 =    5

b(3)   5         + 8 =   13

b(4) 13

b(1) = -11

b(2) = -3.   or b(1) + 1*8

b(3) =  5,    or b(1) + 2*8

b(4) =  13,   or b(1) + 3*8

We note that each step adds a multiple of 8 to the initial value of -11.  This can be stated as (n-1)*8

The formula for this sequence would be b(n) = b(1) + (n-1)*8

b(n) = -11 + (n-1)*8

Check:  Does n=3 return the value of 5?

b(n) = -11 + (n-1)*8

b(3) = -11 + ((3)-1)*8

b(3) = -11 + (2)*8

b(3) = -11 + 16

b(3) = 5   YES

1. Write an equation to describe the value
V(t) of the investment at time t if the
interest is compounded daily.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Period = 1 day      

Periodic interest = .045 / 365       (since there are 365 days in a year)

V(t) = 6000 *  ( 1 + .045/365)^t      where t is in days

The surface area of the triangular prism is [tex]624cm^{2}[/tex]

First find the area of the triangle.

The formula of the area of triangle is: [tex]\frac{1}{2} * h*b[/tex]

h=height

b=base or width.

[tex]\frac{1}{2}*16*12[/tex]

But, since we have two triangles we can skip the [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] because [tex]2*\frac{1}{2} =1[/tex].

[tex]16*12=192[/tex], that is the area of the two triangles combined.

Now let's find the area of the rectangles. I'll start with the diagonal one.

The formula of the area of the rectangle is: [tex]h*b[/tex].

[tex]20*9=180[/tex].

The next rectangle.

[tex]9*16=144[/tex]

The final rectangle.

[tex]12*9=108[/tex]

Now combine all the areas to find the surface area of the triangular prism.

Plot the foci of the hyperbola represented by the equation x^2/625 − y^2/3600 =1 100pts

How to determine the foci?

The equation of the hyperbola is given as:

[tex]\frac{x^2}{625} - \frac{y^2}{3600} = 1[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]\frac{x^2}{25^2} - \frac{y^2}{60^2} = 1[/tex]

A hyperbola is represented as:

[tex]\frac{(x - h)^2}{b^2} - \frac{(y - k)^2}{a^2} = 1[/tex]

This means that:

h = 0

k = 0

b = 25

a = 60

Next, calculate c the distance from the center to the focus using:

[tex]c = \sqrt{a^2 -b^2}[/tex]

This gives

[tex]c = \sqrt{60^2 -25^2}[/tex]

Evaluate

[tex]c = \pm \sqrt{2975}[/tex]

The width of a certain rectangle is 2 m greater than half its length. Four times its length is 26 m greater than its perimeter. What are the dimensions of the rectangle?

Answers

Answer:

Length = 30

Width = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L = length of rectangle and W = Width

The first sentence gives the equation

W = L/2 + 2 ==>

2W = L +4 ==>

L = 2W - 4 ....  (1)

The perimeter of the rectangle is 2(L+W) = 2L +2W

Second sentence gives us the equation

4L = 2L + 2W + 26 ===>
2L = 2W + 26 ......   (2)

(2) - (1) ==> L = 30   (2W cancels out)

From (1), W = 30/2 + 2 = 15 + 2 = 17

Check:
Using these values and substituting in equation 2 gives us
2 * 30 = 2* 17 + 26
60 = 34 + 26
which matches

in the adjoining figure prove that<A+<B+<C+<D+<E is equal 180​

Answers

It has been proved that the 5 star vertices have their sum of angles as A + B + C + D + E = 180°

How to find the sum of angles of a polygon?

The adjoining star contains a regular pentagon. Thus;

Sum of interior angles of the pentagon = (5 - 2) * 180 = 540°

Thus;

Each interior angle of the pentagon = 540/5 = 108°

Thus, each exterior angle = 180 - 108 = 72°

Then measure of the angle at the vertex = 180 - 72 - 72 = 36°

Thus, each angle at the vertices of the star have an angle of 36°.

There are 5 star vertices and so;

Sum of angles of 5 star vertices = 5 * 36 = 180°

A rectangular swimming pool measures 40 meters in length and 30 meters in width. in the scale drawing of the pool, 1 centimeter represents 2 meters

Answers

The area of the swimming pool on the scale drawing will be 300 sq. centimeters.

What is the scale ratio?

A model's scale ratio is the proportionate ratio of a linear dimension of the model to the equivalent characteristic of the original.

For the given scale drawing 1 centimeter represents 2 meters, therefore, the length of 40 meters in one scale drawing will be equal to,

40 meters = 40/2 centimeters = 20 centimeters

The width of 30 meters one scale drawing will be equal to,

30 meters = 30/2 centimeters = 15 centimeters

Now, the area of the swimming pool on the scale drawing will be,

Area= 20 centimeters × 15 centimeters = 300 sq. centimeters

Hence, the area of the swimming pool on the scale drawing will be 300 sq. centimeters.

m ∠2x +5 = 85

m ∠2x -15 = 65

2. The value of x is 15

m ∠5x = 75

Calculating angles

From the question, we are to determine the value of x and the given angles

Since sum of angles is 360°

3x + 2x + 10 + 2x + 5 + 2x -15 = 360°

Collect like terms

3x + 2x + 2x + 2x  = 360° - 10° - 5° + 15°

9x = 360

x = 360 / 9

x = 40

∴ x = 40

Then,

m ∠2x + 10 = 2(40) + 10

m ∠2x + 10 = 80 + 10

m ∠2x + 10 = 90

m ∠3x = 3(40)

m ∠3x = 120

m ∠2x +5 = 2(40) + 5

m ∠2x +5 = 80 + 5

m ∠2x +5 = 85

m ∠2x -15 = 2(40) - 15

m ∠2x -15 = 80 - 15

m ∠2x -15 = 65

Hence, the measure of angle 2x-15 is 65

2.

Since sum of angles is 180°

Then,

5x° + x° + 90° = 180°

6x° = 180° - 90°

6x° = 90°

x = 90/6

x = 15

m ∠5x = 5(15)

m ∠5x = 75

Hence, the measure of angle 5x is 75

Students in a reading class have three options for their book project: making a brochure, writing a news article, or designing a computer presentation. from past years, the teacher has determined that 20% of students usually choose to make a brochure, 30% of students usually choose to write a news article, and the remaining students usually choose to design a computer presentation. if the teacher uses 20 colored chips in three different colors to model this situation, how many colored chips should she use to represent each book project option? making a brochure: blue chips writing a news article: yellow ships designing a computer presentation: red chips

Answers

Answer: 4 blue chips (brochure), 6 yellow chips (news article), and 10 red chips (computer presentation).

Step-by-step explanation: If you have 20 colored chips, then 20% of the people that chose the brochure will be 20% of 20 of the chips. That is 20 * 0.2 = 4. Now, to find how to model the people who chose the news article, it will be 30% of the 20 chips. That is 20 * 0.3 = 6. Thus, 6 chips can be modeled for the news articles. Lastly, we add 6 + 4 and that is 10. The rest is another ten out of the 20. Thus, we can use 10 red chips to model the computer presentation.

The teacher should use 4 blue chips for the making a brochure option, 6 yellow chips for the writing a news article option, and 10 red chips for the designing a computer presentation option.

What is Division?

A division is a process of splitting a specific amount into equal parts.

To model this situation using colored chips, we can use the following approach:

Divide the total number of chips (20) into five equal parts, each representing 20% of the total number of students.

For the making a brochure option, use four blue chips to represent the 20% of students who choose this option.

For the writing a news article option, use six yellow chips to represent the 30% of students who choose this option.

For the designing a computer presentation option, use ten red chips to represent the remaining 50% of students who choose this option.

So, the teacher should use 4 blue chips for the making a brochure option, 6 yellow chips for the writing a news article option, and 10 red chips for the designing a computer presentation option.

Hence,  the teacher should use 4 blue chips for the making a brochure option, 6 yellow chips for the writing a news article option, and 10 red chips for the designing a computer presentation option.
