Is this sequence arithmetic or geometric? How do you know?
Answer:
[tex]\sum_{n = 1} 2*(-5)^{n-1}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
An arithmetic sequence is of the form:
[tex]A_n = A_{n-1} + d[/tex]
While a geometric sequence is of the form:
[tex]A_n = A_{n-1}*r[/tex]
notice that first, we have a change of sign in our sequence, so we already can discard the arithmetic sequence.
In fact, the pattern is kinda easy to see.
The first term is:
A₁ = 2
the second term is:
A₂ = -10
notice that:
A₂/A₍ = r = -10/2 = -5
The third term is:
A₃ = 50
the quotient between the third term and the second term is:
A₃/A₂ = 50/-10 = -5
Whit this we can already conclude that the n-th term of our sequence will be:
[tex]A_n = A_{n-1}*(-5)[/tex]
Then the summation will be something like:
[tex]\sum_{n = 1} A_n = A_1 + A_2 + A_3 + ... = 2 - 10 + 50 - ...[/tex]
We can write:
[tex]A_n = A_{n-1}*(-5) = (A_{n-2}*(-5))*(-5)) = A_1*(-5)^{n-1} = 2*(-5)^{n-1}[/tex]
Then the summation is just:
[tex]\sum_{n = 1} 2*(-5)^{n-1}[/tex]
A telephone pole has a wire attached to its top that is anchored to the ground. The distance from the bottom of the pole to the anchor point is 49 feet less than the height of the pole. If the wire is to be 14 feet longer than the height of the pole, what is the height of the pole?
9514 1404 393
Answer:
105 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the height of the pole. Then (x -49) is the distance from the pole to the anchor point, and (x+14) is the length of the wire from the top of the pole to the anchor point.
The Pythagorean theorem gives us the relation ...
(x +14)² = x² +(x -49)²
x² +28x +196 = x² +x² -98x +2401 . . . . eliminate parentheses
x² -126x +2205 = 0 . . . . . . . . put in standard form
x² -126x +3969 -1764 = 0 . . . . "complete the square)
(x -63) = ±√1764 . . . . . . add 1764, take the square root
x = 63 +42 = 105 . . . . . . highest value root. The pole must be higher than 49 feet
The height of the pole is 105 feet.

Work it out
Answer:
22.5
Step-by-step explanation:
percent is any number over 100, so 25% is 25 over 100, this means that 25% can be written as:
25100
Now, any number in fractional form (a number over a number) is the same as division so 25% can also be written as a decimal, we just move the decimal point 2 places to the right of 25, like this:
25100=0.25
Now we have two ways that we can solve this problem! I'll start with the fractional method of solving.

A canoeist traveling with the current traveled the 24 miles between two riverside campsites in 2 hours. The return trip against the current took 3 hours. Find the speed of the canoeist in still water and the speed of the current, both in miles per hour.
Answer:
Speed of canoiest is 10 miles/hour.
Speed of current is 2 miles/hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the speed of canoiest is v and the speed of current is u.
distance = speed x time
24 = (v + u ) x 2
v + u = 12 ..... (1)
Now
24 = (v- u) x 3
v - u = 8 .... (2)
By solving (1) and (2)
2 v = 20
v = 10 miles/hour
u = 2 miles/hour

Eileen is reading a novel for her library’s summer reading program. Which question can Eileen ask herself to best form a personal connection with the text?
A. What symbolism does this novel share with other novels I have read?
B. How do the facts in the text add to what I already know about my research topic?
C. What connections can I build between the themes in this text and other modern stories?
D. How do the struggles of the characters compare with challenges I have faced in my own life?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To begin with the answer. This is very personal, but I would choose D. I think you have to relate things to what you know. How do other people live through the same problem? Does the author believe that the best path has been chosen, or does he/she believe that the central character is doomed to failure? And how do these comments relate to me. You are going to get the most out of any novel when you can relate to the central character or any of the characters for that matter.
I'm not concerned with C. You can read trash and what they say is likely consistent but that only means that trash is pandering to a clientele that does not want to think much. Whatever spin you put on C, agreement is not a terrific thing. It does not make you think.
I suppose B is important if you are reading non fiction. I'm not answering it that way.
A: not the answer. This is a very remote connection. Most of the time symbolism is not the main attraction of any novel nor especially of any non fiction writing. Moby D*ick is not a great novel because of its symbolism of which there is a huge amount. It is a great novel because the conflict is between man and nature and although that is symbolic, it is not as important as the character study of Ahab (who is himself a symbol). Nor or Ishmael for that matter. I will admit you have to have a Bible in one hand and Moby Di*ck in the other, but it is not critical. The theme is.

3.3 A circle has a radius of 12cm. An angle of 3.2 radians is subtended at the centre by an arc. Calculate the length of the arc. (3)
Answer:
S = 38.4 centimeters.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following data;
Radius, r = 12 cmAngle = 3.2 radsTo find the length of the arc of a circle;
A full circle measures an angle of 360 degrees.
π = 180°
So; Angle, A = 360° = 2π
Therefore, a full circle is equal to 2π in terms of radians (rads).
Also, the circumference (the length of an arc) of a circle is equal to 2πr or Ar.
Mathematically, the length of the arc of a circle is given by the formula;
S = rA
Where;
S is the length of the arc.A is the angle measured in radians.Substituting into the formula, we have;
S = 12 * 3.2
S = 38.4 centimeters.

Hurry I am in summer school and almost done I need help ASAP!
Answer:
down by 1 unit and left by 4 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Given f(x) then f(x) + c is a vertical translation of f(x)
• If c > 0 then a shift up of c units
• If c < 0 then a shift down of c units
Given f(x) then f(x + a) is a horizontal translation of f(x)
• If a > 0 then a shift left of a units
• If a < 0 then a shift right of a units
Then
g(x) = (x + 4)² - 1
is f(x) shifted down by 1 unit and shifted left by 4 units
when it is transformed to
What is the effect on the graph of f (2)
g(x) = 1 +112
A. The graph of f(x) is shifted 11 units to the left.
B. The graph of f(x) is shifted 11 units to the right.
C. The graph of f(x) is shifted 11 units up.
D. The graph of f(x) is shifted 11 units down.
Answer:
C. The graph of f(x) is shifted 11 units up.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]g(x) = f(x) + 11[/tex]
Required
Interpret g(x)
When a function is shifted up in b units, the rule is:
[tex](x,y) \to (x,y+b)[/tex]
Replace b with 11
[tex](x,y) \to (x,y+11)[/tex]
Replace y with f(x)
[tex](x,f(x)) \to (x,f(x)+11)[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]g(x) = f(x) + 11[/tex]
Hence; f(x) is shifted 11 units up.
A scientist has acid solutions with concentrations of 4% and 15%. He wants to mix some of each solution to get 44 milliliters of solution with a 12% concentration. How many milliliters of each solution does he need to mix together?
Let x and y be the amounts (in mL) of the 4% and 15% solutions, respectively, that the scientist needs to use.
He wants to end up with a 44 mL solution, so
x + y = 44 mL
Each milliliter of 4% solution contains 0.04 mL of acid, while each mL of 15% contains 0.15 mL of acid. The resulting solution should have a concentration of 12%, so that each mL of it contains 0.12 mL of acid. Then the solution will contain
0.04x + 0.15y = 0.12 × (44 mL) = 5.28 mL
of acid.
Solve for x and y. In the first equation, we have y = 44 mL - x, and substituting into the second equation gives
0.04x + 0.15 (44 mL - x) = 5.28 mL
0.04x + 6.6 mL - 0.15x = 5.28 mL
1.32 mL = 0.19x
x ≈ 6.95 mL
==> y ≈ 37.05 mL
