For the following sequence determine the common difference (if it is an arithmetic sequence) or the common ratio (if it is a geometric sequence).

-7x + 8, -12x + 12, -17x + 16, . . .

Possible anwers:
-5x + 4
5x + 4
-5x - 4
5x-4

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The first one is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

It's an arithmetic sequence. It has a common difference.

d = an - a_n-1

an = -12x + 12

a_n-1 = - 7x + 8

d = -12x + 12 - (-7x + 8)

d = -12x + 12 + 7x - 8

d = -5x + 4

Try  it. Let's try for the third term

-12x + 12 - 5x + 4

- 17x + 15 which is exactly what the third term is.

Answer:

The probability that Aaron goes to the gym on exactly one of the two days is 0.74

Step-by-step explanation:

Let P(Aaron goes to the gym on exactly one of the two days) be the probability that Aaron goes to the gym on exactly one of the two days.

Then

P(Aaron goes to the gym on exactly one of the two days) =

P(Aaron goes to the gym on Saturday and doesn't go on Sunday) +

P(Aaron doesn't go to the gym on Saturday and goes on Sunday)

If Aaron goes to the gym on Saturday the probability that he goes on Sunday is 0.3. Then If Aaron goes to the gym on Saturday the probability that he does not go on Sunday is 1-0.3 =0.7 Since the probability that Aaron goes to the gym on Saturday is 0.8,

P(Aaron goes to the gym on Saturday and doesn't go on Sunday) =

P(the probability that Aaron goes to the gym on Saturday)×P(If Aaron goes to the gym on Saturday the probability that he does not go on Sunday)=

0.8×0.7=0.56

The probability that Aaron doesn't go to the gym on Saturday is 1-0.8=0.2 And if Aaron does not go to the gym on Saturday the probability he goes on Sunday is 0.9.

Thus, P(Aaron doesn't go to the gym on Saturday and goes on Sunday) = P(The probability that Aaron doesn't go to the gym on Saturday)×P(if Aaron does not go to the gym on Saturday the probability he goes on Sunday)

=0.2×0.9=0.18

Then

P(Aaron goes to the gym on exactly one of the two days) =0.56 + 0.18 =0.74

30 POINTS!!! There is an average of 3.5×10^−2 kilograms of dissolved salt in each liter of seawater. The Pacific Ocean contains approximately ​6.6×10^20​ liters of seawater.

How many kilograms of dissolved salt are in the Pacific Ocean?

Answers

Answer:

2.31 * 10 ^ 19

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the number of kilograms  per liter and multiply by the number of liters

3.5×10^−2 * 6.6×10^20​

The coefficients get multiplied and the exponents add

3.5 * 6.6   * 10 ^ (-2+20)

23.1 * 10 ^ 18

This is not scientific notation since 23.1 is greater than or equal to 10 so we move the decimal 1 place to the left and add 1 to the exponent

Todd and his friends are painting 5 equal sections of a wall. The wall is 10 feet
tall, but its length is unknown.
Each section will be a different color, so they need to know the area of each
section.
10 ft
Total length unknown (x)
Letx represent the total length of the wall. What expression could Todd
and his friends use to find the area of each section?

Answers

Answer:

the expression for the total area of the wall is 10×x or simply 10x

to find the area of a section we need to take the total area of the wall and divide it by 5 (as there are 5 equal sections).

the expression for the area of each section is 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

remember, the area of a rectangle is length×width (or height).

so, the total wall can be seen as one big rectangle 10 ft high and x ft long. its area is therefore 10x (meaning 10×x).

since the wall is separated into 5 equal segments, the area of one such segment is simply 1/5 of the total area. so, we need to divide the total area by 5.

so, the expression for the area of each segment is

10x/5 = 2x

The value of x for the given equation [tex]log_{8}[/tex](16) + 2[tex]log_{8}[/tex](x) = 2 will be 2 so option (B) must be correct.

What is a logarithm?

The exponent indicates the power to which a base number is raised to produce a given number called a logarithm.

In another word, a logarithm is a different way to denote any number.

Given the equation

[tex]log_{8}[/tex](16) + 2[tex]log_{8}[/tex](x) = 2

We know that,

xlogb = log[tex]b^{x}[/tex]

So,

2[tex]log_{8}[/tex](x) = logx²

For the same base

logA + logB = log(AB)

So,

[tex]log_{8}[/tex](16) + [tex]log_{8}[/tex](x)² = 2

[tex]log_{8}[/tex](16x²) = 2

We know that

[tex]log_{a}[/tex](b) = c ⇒ b = [tex]a^{c}[/tex]

so,

[tex]log_{8}[/tex](16x²) = 2 ⇒ 8² = 16x²

x = 2 hence x = 2 will be correct answer.

B) 1.6 * 10 ^ 4
C) 2.0 * 10 ^ 4
D) 1.6 * 10 ^ 12 ​

Answers

Answer:

C: 2 × 10⁴

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the average net primary production in tropical rain forests each year is 8,900 kilocalories per square meter.

Thus;

P_net,average = 8900 Kcal/m²

We are also told that net primary production of a selected portion of a tropical rain forest in a given year is 1.8 × 10^(8) kilocalories.

Thus;

P_net = 1.8 × 10^(8) Kcal

To get the average, the formula is;

P_net,average = P_net/Area

Thus;

Area = P_net/P_net,average

Plugging in the relevant values;

Area = (1.8 × 10^(8))/8900

Area ≈ 2 × 10⁴ m²

What is the average rate of change in the area as the radius changes from 2.5 to 5.5 feet?

Answers

The answer would be 4.2

The momentum of a variable is represented by the rate of change. The average rate of change in the area as the radius changes from 2.5 to 5.5 feet is 25.1327ft² per ft.

What is the rate of change?

The momentum of a variable is represented by the rate of change, which is used to quantitatively express the percentage change in value over a specific period of time.

The area of the circle when the radius of the circle is 2.5 feet is,

Area of circle = π × (2.5 feet)²

                      = 19.635 ft²

The area of the circle when the radius of the circle is 5.5 feet is,

Area of circle = π × (5.5 feet)²

                      = 95.0332 ft²

Now, the average rate of change in the area as the radius changes from 2.5 to 5.5 feet is,

Average rate of change = (Change in the area)/(Change in radius)

                                         = (95.0332 ft² - 19.635 ft²) / (5.5 ft - 2.5 ft)

                                         = 25.1327ft² per ft

Hence, the average rate of change in the area as the radius changes from 2.5 to 5.5 feet is 25.1327ft² per ft.
