Gary rents three DVDs each week at Fantastik Flicks. Write an algebraic expression for Wn, the total number of points earned in the nth week

Answers

Answer 1

For the nth week, the total points earned in the DVD rentals is [tex]p_n + 2[/tex]

Your question is not complete, it seems it is missing the following information below;

DVD rentals:         1    2    3    

Total DVD points:  3   5    7    

The number of points earned is a function of number of DVD rentals.

For the first DVD, the number of points earned;

[tex]n_1 = p_1 + c\\\\where;\\c \ is \ the \ constant \ point \ earned[/tex]

3 = 1 + c

3- 1 = c

2 = c

For nth week the total point earned is given as;

[tex]n_t_h = p_n + c\\\\n_t_h = p_n + 2[/tex]

Thus, for the nth week, the total points earned in the DVD rentals is [tex]p_n + 2[/tex]

Answer 2

Here we have a problem with arithmetic sequences.

After a small online search, I've found that:

Fantastik Flicks gives: 3 points for the first rental, 5 points for the second rental, 7 points for the third rental

And so on.

We will find that the total of points in the n-th week is given by:

Wₙ = 15 + (n - 1)*18

Looking at the number of points given for each rental, we can see that we have an arithmetic sequence with an increase of 2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15,...

We want to find the total of points earned in each week. For example, for the first week the total of points is: W₁ = (3 + 5 + 7) = 15

For the second week, the total of points is: W₂ = (9 + 11 + 13) = 33

For the third week, the total number of points is: W₃ = (15 + 17 + 19)  = 51

Now let's see if Wₙ also is arithmetic. To see this, we need to look at the difference between consecutive elements of Wₙ.

W₂ - W₁ = 33 - 15 = 18

W₃ - W₂ = 51 - 33 = 18

So in both cases we got the same difference, this makes a lot of sense, taking in account that we construct the Wₙ with an arithmetic sequence, so is logical that the sequence {Wₙ} is also arithmetical.

Now that we know this, we can see that in the n-th week, the total of points will be: Wₙ = W₁ + (n - 1)*18Wₙ = 15 + (n - 1)*18

Citydog Screen Printers received two orders for a t-shirt designed for a math symposium. The first order was for 40 shirts at a total cost of $295 and the second order was for an additional 80 shirts at a total cost of $565. Each order included a shipping and handling charge.
1.Write the linear equation that models the equation?
2.What is the cost per T-shirt?
3.What is the standard shipping and handling bag?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Citydog Screen Printers received two orders for a t-shirt designed for a math symposium. The first order was for 40 shirts at a total cost of $295 and the second order was for an additional 80 shirts at a total cost of $565. Each order included a shipping and handling charge.

Then we have to writer a linear equation, for which I got: y-27/4x+25. We also had to find the cost per t-shirt, for which I got: $31.75. The last part I don't understand, however: fidn the shipping and handling charge.

The second word problem is:

It costs Consolidated Cereals Corporation $1050 to produce 100 boxes of corn flakes and $1250 to produce 500 boxes. I found the cost function: c(x)=1/2x+1000 but don't know how to determine the fixed cost and the variable cost per box (mainly because I have no idea what those are.)

Cost= m x+b

x is the cost per shirt, b is the handling charge

295=40m+b

565=80m+b

subtract the first equation from the second:

370=40x solve for m, the cost of each shirt. Then solve for b, put all that into y= mx+b

One the second question,

Cost= variable cost * n + Fixedcosts or

cost= n*v+F

1250=500v+f

1050=100v+f

subtract the second equation from the first

200=400v solve for v, and it is 1/2 dollar. Solve for f, the fixed cost, and it looks as if it is 1000 dollars.

5 ft
4ft
3ft
6ft​

Answers

Answer: First Choice. 5ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we need to know the idea of the Pythagorean theorem.

Since a building is straight, the base angle is a right angle, thus it would be a right triangle.

Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c²

**NOTE** Please refer to the attachment below for the figure. (I drew it, so if it was not clear and understandable for you, please tell me.)

Solve:

Given information

a = 12 ft

c = 13 ft

b = unknow base length

Given formula for Pythagorean Theorem

a² + b² = c²

Substitute values into the formula

12² + b² = 13²

Simplify exponents

144 + b² = 169

Subtract 144 on both sides

144 + b² - 144= 169 - 144

b² = 25

Square root both sides

√b² = √25

The length of each side of an equilateral triangle having an area of 9√3 cm² is

Answers

Answer:

6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let each side of the equilateral triangle be a.

Given, area of an equilateral triangle = 9√3 cm2

Area of an equilateral triangle = (√3)/4 × (Side)²

=> (√3)/4 × a² = 9√3

[tex] {a}^{2} = \frac{9 \sqrt{3} }{ \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{4} } = \frac{9 \sqrt{3} }{ \sqrt{3} } \times 4 = 9 \times 4[/tex]

=> a² = 36

[tex] \sqrt{ {a}^{2} } = \sqrt{36} \\ a = (+ - )6[/tex]

∴ Side = 6 cm  [taking positive square root because side is always positive]

What is the measure of ZA?

Select the best answer from the choices provided.
A. 35
B. 55°
С.70°
D.110°

Answers

Answer:

55°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since two of the sides are the same length, that means ∠A and ∠B are the same.

All angles of a triangle add up to 180°

180 - 70 = 110

To find ∠A, we just divide 110 by 2

110 ÷ 2 = 55

Both ∠A and ∠B are 55°

Answer:

B. 55°

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle shown is a isosceles triangle meaning two angles measure the same value and one angle measures different from the others

To find m∠A, subtract 180 since it’s the total ° among the angle minus 70° to be left with the two angles

180° - 70° = 110°

The two angles can’t each be measured 110° so we must divide 110° by 2 for the two angles to have the same degree

Thus, m∠A = m∠B and m∠A = 55°

A number line shows 1 1/5, −2 2/5, and −1 3/5. Which statement is NOT true?

Answers

Answer:

The answer Is A 1 1/5 < -2 2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

It says that this statement is true because 1 1/5 is to the left of -2 2/5 on the number line but it is actually to the right because -2 2/5 is negative while 1 1/5 is positive therefore making it larger and the correct statement would be that    1 1/5 > -2 2/5

Jamal buys a strip of 25 postage stamps. The strip of stamps is 21 7/8 inches long. How long is each stamp?

Answers

Rewrite the length as an improper fraction.

21 7/8 = 175/8

Write the quantity of stamps as a fraction: 25/1

Divide length by number of stamps:

175/8 / 25/1

When dividing by a fraction change the sign to multiplication and flip the second fraction over:

175/8 x 1/25.

Now multiply numerators and then denominators:

(175 x1) / (8x 25) = 175/200

Simplify to 7/8

Each stamp is 7/8 inches long

Q: Nitrates are organic compounds that are a main ingredient in fertilizers. When those fertilizers run off
into streams, the nitrates can have a toxic effect on
fish. An ecologist studying nitrate pollution in two
streams measures nitrate concentrations at 42 places on Stony Brook and 42 places on Mill Brook. The parallel dotplots display the data.


1. Explain what the dot above 12 in the Stony Brook graph represents.


Answers

By looking at the dot graph, we can see that the single dot above 12 in the Stony Brook graph, means that the ecologist find that in one of the 42 places measured in the Stony Brooks lake, the nitrate concentration was 12 mg/L

To understand this, first I want to give a brief explanation of how these graphs work.

You know that the ecologist did study the Nitrate pollution at 42 places in two lakes.

Each of these 42 places is represented with a dot in the corresponding graph.  Now looking at the graph, the position of the dots represents the nitrate concentration (you can see it in the horizontal axis) on one of these 42 places (42 dots for 42 places).

So, having a single dot above 12 in the Stony Brook graph, means that the ecologist find that in one of the 42 places measured in the Stony Brooks lake, the nitrate concentration was of 12 mg/L
