Write the explicit formula for the sequence below and use it to find the 47th term:
-3, 5, 13, 21, . . .

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

The sequence is:

[tex]-3,5,13,21...[/tex]

To find:

The explicit formula for the given sequence then find the 47th term.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]-3,5,13,21...[/tex]

The difference between two consecutive terms are:

[tex]5-(-3)=8[/tex]

[tex]13-5=8[/tex]

[tex]21-13=8[/tex]

The given sequence has a common difference. So, the given sequence is an arithmetic sequence with first term -3 and common difference 8.

The explicit formula for an arithmetic sequence is:

[tex]a_n=a+(n-1)d[/tex]

Where, a is the first term and d is the common difference.

Putting [tex]a=-3[/tex] and [tex]d=8[/tex] in the above formula, we get

[tex]a_n=-3+(n-1)8[/tex]

[tex]a_n=-3+8n-8[/tex]

[tex]a_n=8n-11[/tex]

Putting [tex]n=47[/tex], we get

[tex]a_{47}=8(47)-11[/tex]

[tex]a_{47}=376-11[/tex]

[tex]a_{47}=365[/tex]

Therefore, the explicit formula for the given sequence is [tex]a_n=8n-11[/tex] and the 47th term is 365.

Answers

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 2 is the answer.

If the boy is twice as old, and the sister's age is represented by x, then we multiply 2 to x to represent the boy's age.

Then we add 2 when 2 years pass by.

An airplane is flying 2 miles over the ocean directly toward a coastline. If the angle of depression to the coastline from the airplane is 15 degrees, how much farther does the airplane have to fly before it is directly above the coastline? Round to the nearest tenth.

Answers

The airplane has to fly approximately 7.47 miles farther before it is directly above the coastline (rounded to the nearest tenth).

Here,

Let's consider the situation described in the problem:

An airplane is flying 2 miles over the ocean, directly toward a coastline. The angle of depression from the airplane to the coastline is 15 degrees. We want to find out how much farther the airplane has to fly before it is directly above the coastline.

Let's represent the distance the airplane needs to fly before it is directly above the coastline as "x" miles.

Now, we have a right-angled triangle formed by the airplane, the coastline, and the point directly below the airplane on the coastline (the foot of the perpendicular).

The angle of depression is the angle between the horizontal line (the coastline) and the line of sight from the airplane to the foot of the perpendicular.

Since we know the angle of depression and the length of the opposite side (the height of the airplane above the coastline, which is 2 miles), we can use trigonometry (specifically, the tangent function) to find the length of the adjacent side, which is the distance the airplane needs to fly (x miles).

The tangent of an angle in a right-angled triangle is defined as the ratio of the length of the opposite side to the length of the adjacent side:

tan(angle) = opposite / adjacent

In our case, the angle is 15 degrees, the opposite side is 2 miles, and we want to find the adjacent side (x miles):

tan(15°) = 2 / x

Now, solve for x:

x = 2 / tan(15°)

Using a calculator:

x ≈ 2 / 0.26794919243 ≈ 7.47 miles

So, the airplane has to fly approximately 7.47 miles farther before it is directly above the coastline (rounded to the nearest tenth).

You purchase 75 shares of stock at $15 per share. The next day the stock drops 3%; however, a week later it increases in value by 7%. If you immediately sell your 75 shares, how much will you gain or lose (a) in dollar amount and (b) in percent?

Answers

Answer:

You have gained $43 and the value increased by 3.8%

Step-by-step explanation:

You would 75 times 15 = $1125

then you would do 1125 times 97% = 1091.25

now you would do 1091.25 times 107% = estimation of 1168

then you would do 1168/1125 which is estimated to 1.038 and you would convert that into a percentage = 103.8%

You would do 1168 - 1125 = $43 and 103.8 - 100 = 3.8%

A quadrilateral is shown. One pair of opposite sides have lengths of 10 inches and (x + 2) inches. The other pair of opposite sides have lengths (x + 5) inches and (2 x minus 3) inches. Based on the measures shown, could the figure be a parallelogram? Yes, one pair of opposite sides could measure 10 in., and the other pair could measure 13 in. Yes, one pair of opposite sides could measure 10 in., and the other pair could measure 8 in. No, there are three different values for x when each expression is set equal to 10. No, the value of x that makes one pair of sides congruent does not make the other pair of sides congruent.

Answers

Answer:

Yes one pair of the opposite sides could measure 10 inches , and the other pair could measure 13 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallelogram have opposite sides parallel and congruent

the given quadrilateral is a parallelogram then

10 = x + 2 Equation A

x + 5 = 2x - 3 Equation B

Solving for Equation A:

x = 10 -2 = 8 inches

Solving for Equation B;

2x - x = 5 + 3

x = 8 inches

Value X are the same equations.

Means that

For x=8 inches opposite side

So Yes one pair of the opposite sides could measure 10 inches , and the other pair could measure 13 inches.

The measure of the ∠A in this right-angled triangle is,  38.68°.

What are trigonometric ratios in terms of a right-angle triangle?

We know a right-angled triangle has three sides they are -: Hypotenuse,

Opposite and Adjacent.

We can remember SOH CAH TOA which is,

sin = opposite/hypotenuse, cos = adjecen/hypotenuse and

tan = opposite/adjacent.

From the given figure, With reference to ∠A, the Opposite is 5 units and the hypotenuse is 8 units.

We know, sin = opposite/hypotenuse.

Therefore, sinФ = 5/8.

Ф = sin⁻¹(5/8).

Ф = 38.68°.

A floor tile is made in the slope of a rectangular polygon the sum of all the interior angles is 1080° if each side is 10cm find perimeter

Answers

Given:

Sum of all the interior angles of a regular polygon is 1080°.

Measure of each side is 10 cm.

To find:

The perimeter.

Solution:

The sum of all interior angles of a regular polygon with n side is:

[tex]S=(n-2)180^\circ[/tex]

Sum of all the interior angles of a regular polygon is 1080°.

[tex]1080^\circ=(n-2)180^\circ[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{1080^\circ}{180^\circ}=n-2[/tex]

[tex]6+2=n[/tex]

[tex]8=n[/tex]

Number of sides of the regular polygon is 8. The measure of each side is 10 cm. So, the perimeter of the regular polygon is:

[tex]\text{Perimeter}=\text{Number of sides}\times\text{Measure of each side}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Perimeter}=8\times 10[/tex]

[tex]\text{Perimeter}=80[/tex]

Therefore, the perimeter of the regular polygon is 80.

Step-by-step explanation:

In most cases the first step is to create an equation to solve for the missing variable

But in this case we are already given the equation

(7.25h + 5 = 6.5h + 10.25)

All we have to do is solve for h

7.25h + 5 = 6.5h + 10.25

Step 1 subtract 5 from both sides

7.25h = 6.5h + 5.25

Step 2 subtract 6.5h from both sides

0.75h = 5.25

Step 3 divide both sides by .75

h = 7

A jewelry box has a volume of 240 in cubic in. Its height is 12 inches, its width x in inches and its length ( x + 8) inches.

Answers

Answer:

Width of the box = 2 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a box = length × width × height

Volume of the box = 240 cubic inches

Length of the box = (x + 8) inches

Width of the box = x inches

Height of the box = 12 inches

Volume of a box = length × width × height

240 = (x + 8) * x * 12

240 = (x² + 8x) * 12

240 = 12x² + 96x

12x² + 96x - 240 = 0

x² + 8x - 20 = 0

Solve quadratic equation using factorization method

x² + 10x - 2x - 20 = 0

x(x + 10) -2(x + 10) = 0

(x + 10) (x - 2) = 0

x + 10 = 0 OR x - 2 = 0

x = -10 OR x = 2

Width of the box can not be a negative value

Therefore,

Width of the box = 2 inches

The vertex of this parabola is at (-5, 4). Which of the following could be its
equation?

Answers

Answer:

A. y = -(x + 5)^2 + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

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

A. y = -(x + 5)^2 + 4

B. y = -(x - 5)^2 + 4

C. y = -(x + 5)^2 - 4

D. y = -(x - 5)^2 - 4

For a quadratic equation with a vertex at the point (h, k) is written as:

y = a*(x - h)^2 + k

Where a is the leading coefficient.

So, if here we have the vertex at (-5, 4)

y = a*(x - (-5))^2 + 4

y = a(x + 5)^2 + 4

Then the correct option is the first one, where a = -1, then the correct option is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

not sure tho____________

Answer:

83 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The exterior angle of a triangle can be find by adding up the two inner angles that are not adjacent, so

43 + x = 126

x = 83 degrees

Second way

exterior angle + inner angle = 180

126 + inner angle = 180

inner angle = 54

the sum of the inner angles of a triangle is 180 degrees

54 + 43 + x = 180

97 + x = 180

x = 83 degrees
