What is the recursive formula for this geometric sequence?
-3, -21, -147, -1029, ...

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all the first term is a1 and that's equal to -3

Every term is multiplied by 7

So the recursive formula is

an = 7*a_(n-1)

a2 = 7*a_(1 -1)

a2 = 7*-3

a2 = - 21

Now try a_4

a_4 = 7*a_3

a_3 = -147

a_4 = 7*(-147)

a_4 = -1029

Select the two values of x that are roots of this equatio 2x - 5 = - 3x ^ 2

Answers

alright I can help!

so to find the two values of x that are roots of the equation we need to put the variables all on one side so that we can set up the quadratic formula.

3x^2+2x-5=0 (the -3x^2 becomes positive when moved across the equal sign)

now we can set up the quadratic formula. the equation is x= (-b+-(sqrt of b^2 -4ac))/ 2a

so now we just plug in our variables.

x= (-2+-(sqrt of 2^2 -4×3×-5))/ 2×3

x= (-2+-8)/6

now we just seperate the equations so that we have the two roots. and then just solve!

x= (-2-8)/6 -> x= -5/3

x= (-2+8)/6 -> x=1

hope this helps! best wishes and best of luck!!

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(1/4 + 1/9 + 1/3)x = 25.

x = 36

Answer:

Let the number be x

(1/4 + 1/9 + 1/3) * x = 25

25/36 * x = 25

25x = 25*36

x = 25*36/25

What are the solutions to the system of equations?

{y=2x²−6x+3
{y=x−2

Answers

Answer:

x = 1, y = −1

x = 5/2, y = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

y = 2x² − 6x + 3 ........ (1)

y = x − 2 ...... (2)

We can obtain the solutions to the equation as follow:

y = 2x² − 6x + 3 ........ (1)

y = x − 2 ...... (2)

Substitute the value of y in equation 2 into equation 1

y = 2x² − 6x + 3

y = x − 2

2x² − 6x + 3 = x − 2

Rearrange

2x² − 6x − x + 3 + 2 = 0

2x² − 7x + 5 = 0

Solve by factorization

Obtain the product of 2x² and 5. The result is 10x².

Find two factors of 10x² such that their sum will result to −7x.

The factors are −2x and −5x.

Replace −7x in the equation above with −2x and −5x as shown below:

2x² − 2x − 5x + 5 = 0

2x(x − 1) − 5(x − 1) = 0

(x − 1)(2x − 5) = 0

x − 1 = 0 or 2x − 5 = 0

x = 1 or 2x = 5

x = 1 or x = 5/2

Substitute the value of x into equation 2 to obtain y

y = x − 2

x = 1

y = 1 − 2

y = −1

x = 5/2

y = x − 2

y = 5/2 − 2

y = (5 − 4)/2

y = 1/2

SUMMARY:

x = 1, y = −1

x = 5/2, y = 1/2

Consider the arithmetic senes 336+ 332+328+....+4 Numeric Response 1 The number of terms in the series above is (Record your answer in the numerical-response section below) Your answer DCC Numeric Response 2. The sum of the series above is (Record your answer in the numerical-response section below) ​

Answers

The first term in the series is 336. The second term is obtained by subtracting 4 from the first term; subtract 4 from that to get the third term; and so on. Then the n-th term in the series is

336 - 4 (n - 1)

or

340 - 4n

The last term in this series is 4, so we solve for n :

340 - 4n = 4

336 = 4n

n = 336/4 = 84

The sum of the series is then

[tex]\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^{84}(340-4n) = 340\sum_{n=1}^{84}1 - 4 \sum_{n=1}^{84}n[/tex]

Recall that

[tex]\displaystyle \sum_{n=1}^{N} 1 = N[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle \sum_{n=1}^N n = \frac{N(N+1)}2[/tex]

Then the sum we want is

[tex]\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^{84}(340-4n) = 340\times84 - 4\times\frac{84\times85}2 = \boxed{14,280}[/tex]

An employee is scheduled to work 40 hours per week at a base rate of $18.50 per hour. In addition to the 40 scheduled hours, the employee is asked to work 8 hours of overtime for one week due to staffing shortages. If overtime is paid at a rate of 1.5 times the base rate, how much will the employee earn for the week? (use $xxx.Xx format)

Answers

Answer:

$962.00

Step-by-step explanation:

We can start from the first sentence of the word problem and work from there.

First, the employee is working for 40 hours at $18.50 per hour. This means that for each hour, the employee is gaining $18.50 . This can be represented as $18.50 * 40 = $740 for their base pay.

Next, the employee works 8 hours of overtime at 1.5 * base pay (18.50). For each hour of overtime they work, they earn 1.5 * 18.50 = $27.75 dollars. Their earnings from overtime work for the week can be represented as

8 * 27.75 = $222

Because all the employee's hours are encompassed in overtime and base pay, we can add the two together to get

740 + 222 = $962.00 for their total pay for the week

Problem:

What is the remainder when the dividend is xy-3, the divisor is y, and the quotient is x-1. ?

Step-by-step explanation:

Dividend=quotient×divisor+remainder

So we have

xy-3=(x-1)×(y)+remainder

xy-3=(xy-y)+remainder *distributive property

Now we just need to figure out what polynomial goes in for the remainder so this will be a true identity.

We need to get rid of minus y so we need plus y in the remainder.

We also need minus 3 in the remainder.

So the remainder is y-3.

Let's try it out:

xy-3=(xy-y)+remainder

xy-3=(xy-y)+(y-3)

xy-3=xy-3 is what we wanted so we are done here.

Answers

My best guess would be that the independent variable is A. the amount of miles Larry drives.
An independent variable is one that isn't changed by the other variables you are trying to measure.
The amount of miles Larry drives doesn’t depend on anything in this situation.
The question only mentions gallons of gas and miles so I would think you disregard the type of roads Larry drives on and type of car Larry drives.
The amount of gasoline Larry uses is a dependent variable because it depends on the amount of miles Larry drives.

Vectors a = (1,0) and b= (1,1) are given. For what λ vector a + λb is perpendicular to vector a?

Answers

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Vector a=(1,0) if visualized as a line has points (0,0) and (1,0). This means the line is horizontal and has equation y=0.

This means we are looking for a vertical line.

Instead of lambda, I'm going to use u.

So we want a+ub=(1,0)+u(1,1). to vertical. If we visualize this as a line with points (0,0) and (1+u,u). We would need u=-1 so this would be vertical.

So vectors a=(1,0) and a+ub=(1,0)+u(1,1) are perpendicular for u=-1.

So we are saying vectors (1,0) and (0,-1) are perpendicular. If you draw these, you can get a visual confirmation.

The value of λ is -1 and is perpendicular to vector a.

What is Vector?

A vector is a number or phenomena with two distinct properties: magnitude and direction. The term can also refer to a quantity's mathematical or geometrical representation. In nature, vectors include velocity, momentum, force, electromagnetic fields, and weight.

We have,

Vector a = (1, 0) and b = (1, 1).

Here the vector is visualized as line is horizontal and has equation y=0.

Now, we have a + λb is perpendicular to vector a.

So, a + λb = (1, 0) + λ(1, 1)

                 = (1 + λ, 1)

Now, to get the vertical component we must have λ= -1.

Then, a(1, 0) and a+λb= (1,0)+ λ(1, ) are perpendicular to λ=-1.

When 3 liters of oil are removed from an upright cylindrical can, the level falls by 10cm. Find the radius of the can

Answers

Answer:

9.8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a cylinder can be gotten with this formula

V=πr2h

h = height of the oil.

We were told that 3 litres of oil was removed, then, there is a falling in the level of oil by 10 cm, hence the height of the oil is now

h° =( h) - (0.1)

Then the new volume can be calculated as

V°= V - (3×10^-3)

But

volume= (π r2h°)

Then substitute we have

πr2h - 0.003 = π r2 (h-0.1)

If we open the bracket we have

0.003 = (πr2 ×0.1)

πr2=0.003/0.1

Then r=√ (0.03/0.1π)

=9.8 cm
