An arithmetic sequence has this recursive formula: What is the explicit formula for this sequence? A. an=-6+(n-2)8 B. an=8+(n-6)(-1) C. an=8+(n-1)(-6) D. an=8+(n-1)6

An Arithmetic Sequence Has This Recursive Formula: What Is The Explicit Formula For This Sequence? A.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

an = 8 + (n-1) *(-6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The explicit formula is

an = a1+ d (n-1)  where a1 is the initial value and d is the common difference

The initial value is 8  so a1 = 8

The common difference is what we are adding or subtracting each time

We are subtracting 6 each time as we see from the recursive forumla

so d = -6

an = 8 -6(n-1)

or

an = 8 + (n-1) *(-6)

Answer 2

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]a_{n}-a_{n-1}=-6\\d=-6\\a_{n}=a_{1}+(n-1)d\\a_{n}=8+(n-1)(-6)[/tex]

Find the volume of a pyramid with a square base, where the side length of the base is
12.8 in and the height of the pyramid is 20.4 in. Round your answer to the nearest.
tenth of a cubic inch.

Answers

Answer:

Volume = 1114.1 [tex]in^3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the formula for the volume of a pyramid is given by:

[tex]Volume=\frac{1}{3} \,B\,*\,H[/tex]

where B is the area of the pyramid's base (in our case a square of side 12,8 in), and H the pyramid's height (in our case 20.4 in).

Then the square base of the pyramid has an area given by: [tex](12.8\,\,in)^2=163.84\,\,in^2[/tex]

Finally,we can now write the volume of the pyramid as:

[tex]Volume=\frac{1}{3} \,B\,*\,H\\Volume=\frac{1}{3} \,(163.84)\,*\,20.4\,\,in^3\\Volume=1114.112\,\,in^3[/tex]

Rounding the answer to a tenth of a cubic inch, we get:

Volume = 1114.1 [tex]in^3[/tex]


x + y = 24
3x + 5y = 100
What does the solution of this system indicate about the questions on the test?

Answers

Answer:

(10, 14)

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this system let's use substitution:

Solve the first equation for x, obtaining x = 24 - y, and then substitute 24 - y for x in the second equation:

3(24 - y) + 5y = 100

Performing the indicated multiplication, we get:

72 - 3y + 5y = 100

Combining like terms results in 72 - 100 = -2y, or -28 = -2y

Thus, y must be 14.

If y = 14, then the first equation tells us that x = 10.

Check:  Is this true?  3(10) + 5(14) = 100  YES

The solution is (10, 14).

Two boats leave port at noon. Boat 1 sails due east at 12 knots. Boat 2 sails due south at 8 knots. At 2 pm the wind diminishes and Boat 1 now sails at 9 knots. At 3 pm, the wind increases for Boat 2 and it now sails 7 knots faster. How fast (in knots) is the distance between the two ships changing at 5 pm. (Note: 1 knot is a speed of 1 nautical mile per hour.)

Answers

Answer:

14.86 knots.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

The boats leave the port at noon.

Speed of boat 1 = 12 knots due east

Speed of boat 2 = 8 knots due south

At 2 pm:

Distance traveled by boat 1 = 24 units due east

Distance traveled by boat 2 = 16 units due south

Now, speed of boat 1 changes to 9 knots:

At 3 pm:

Distance traveled by boat 1 = 24 + 9= 33 units due east

Distance traveled by boat 2 = 16+8 = 24 units due south

Now, speed of boat 1 changes to 8+7 = 15 knots

At 5 pm:

Distance traveled by boat 1 = 33 + 2[tex]\times[/tex] 9= 51 units due east

Distance traveled by boat 2 = 24 + 2 [tex]\times[/tex] 15 = 54 units due south

Now, the situation of distance traveled can be seen by the attached right angled [tex]\triangle AOB[/tex].

O is the port and A is the location of boat 1

B is the location of boat 2.

Using pythagorean theorem:

[tex]\text{Hypotenuse}^{2} = \text{Base}^{2} + \text{Perpendicular}^{2}\\\Rightarrow AB^{2} = OA^{2} + OB^{2}\\\Rightarrow AB^{2} = 51^{2} + 54^{2}\\\Rightarrow AB^{2} = 2601+ 2916 = 5517\\\Rightarrow AB = 74.28\ units[/tex]

so, the total distance between the two boats is 74.28 units.

Change in distance per hour = [tex]\dfrac{Total\ distance}{Total\ time}[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{74.28}{5} = 14.86\ knots[/tex]

where a, b and care integers.
(x² +
x +
b) Find g '(12)
(2)

Answers

Answer:

f(x) = (x + 2)2 = 2x + 4

g(x) = 3(x - 1) = 3x - 3

gf(x) = (2x + 4)(3x - 3)

= 6x² - 6x + 12x - 12

= 6x² + 6x - 12

To write the final answer in the form

a(x² + bx + c) we factorize the expression

Thus

6x² + 6x - 12

= 6( x² + x - 2)

where a = 6, b = 1 and c = - 2

b.) to find g '(12) we first find g ′

To find g′ equate g(x) to y

Thus

g(x) = y

y = 3x - 3

x = 3y - 3

3y = x + 3

Divide both sides by 3

We get

y = x+3/3

That's g′ = x + 3 / 3

g′(12) = 12 + 3 / 3

= 15/3

= 5

Paul developed a roll of film containing 36 pictures. If he made 2 prints each of half of the pictures and 1 print of each of the rest, how many prints did he make in all?

Answers

Answer:

54

Step-by-step explanation:

Total pictures in the roll = 36

half of the roll = 1/2 of the total pictures in the roll = 1/2 * 36 = 18

Given Paul made 2 prints of each of the half pictures

no. of prints made of half of the pictures = 18*2 = 36

No. of prints left after the half of the roll is printed for two prints= 36-18 = 18

No. of prints made of rest of the pictures 1

Therefore , no of prints made of rest half of pictures = 18*1 = 18

Total prints made = 36 + 18 = 54.

Thus, Paul made 54 prints in all.

−3x^2 − 5x + 9 = 0

The quadratic function is written as

ax^2 + bx+c =0

So a = -3  b = -5 and c = 9

Answer:

a = -3, b = -5 and c = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Quadratic Equation is:

Coordinated of the foci of the hyperbola are given as:

Foci: (h, k ± c)

Substitute the values of h and k into the coordinated of foci of hyperbola.

Foci: (-1, 2 ± c)

Where c can be found by using the given formula

c = √(a²+b²)

c = √(16+144)

c = 4√10

17T 13lb 3oz − 9T 20lb 9oz

Answers

Answer:

8T - 7lb - 6oz

→Step-by-step explanation:

So 17T 13lb 3oz - 9T 20lb 9oz

This information is asking us to simplify the expression.

To do that we need to combine like terms meaning If t and t are alike variables they go together.

And in this expression we have 3 pairs of alike variables which are T, lb, and oz.

So we need to subtract all the like terms.

_____________

17T - 9T is 8T

13lb - 20lb is -7lb

3oz - 9 oz is -6oz

______________

So,
