In a sequence of numbers, a3=0, a4=4, a5=8, a6=12, and a7=16. Based on this information, which equation can be used to find the nth term in the sequence, an?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: aₙ = -12 + 4*n

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

a₃ = 0

a₄ = 4

a₅ = 8

a₆ = 12

a₇ = 16

This seems to be an arithmetic sequence.

To test this, we need to calculate the difference between any two consecutive terms in the sequence, and this must be a constant for any pair that we choose.

a₄ - a₃ = 4 - 0 = 4

a₅ - a₄ = 8 - 4 = 4

a₆ - a₅ = 12 - 8 = 4

etc

we can conclude that this is an arithmetic sequence.

The n-th term in an arithmetic sequence, where the increase between consecutive terms is 4, is:

aₙ = aₙ₋₁ + 4.

Another way is:

aₙ = a₀ + n*4.

Where to find a₀, we can start with the value that we know and go back:

a₂ = a₃ - 4 = -4

a₁ = a₂ - 4 = -8

a₀ = a₁ - 4 = -12

Then the n-th term can be written as:

aₙ = -12 + 4*n

Which sequence of steps is a correct derivation of the difference quotient for f(x) = 3 – log x?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Where are the answer choices?

Still, it's possible to help you without your having shared those choices.

The "difference quotient" is defined as:

 f(x + h) - f(x)

--------------------

           h

where h represents an incremental (small) change in x.

Here f(x) = 3 - log x, and so f(x + h) = 3 - log (x + h).

Therefore the difference quotient is:

{3 - log (x + h)} - {3 - log x}

-------------------------------------

                    h

This can be simplified.  In the numerator we have 3 - 3, so the numerator simplifies to -log (x + h) + log x

and the difference quotient is

-log ( x + h) + log x

---------------------------

              h

This can be rewritten as

log x - log (x + h)                                x                                  x

--------------------------- , or (1/h)*log ------------ , or  (1/h) log { ----------- }

              h                                       (x + h)                            x + h

Can you help me find the values of x and z?

Answers

Answer:

x = 96

z = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

x and 84 are supplementary angles.

this means that they add together to make 180.

using this, you can make the following equation:

x + 84 = 180

subtract 84 from both sides of the equation

x + 84 - 84 = 180 - 84

x = 180 - 84

x = 96

84 and 3z + 9 are vertical angles

vertical angles are equal.

using this, you can make the following equation:

84 = 3z + 9

subtract 9 from both sides of the equation

84 - 9 = 3z

75 = 3z

divide both sides of the equation by 3

75/3 = 3z/3

25 = z

Suppose Adriana spends $ 73.00 dollars on T-shirts and pants. A T-shirt costs $5.50 and pants cost $25.50. How can you represent this situation with an equation?

Answers

Answer:

73.00=5.50x+25.50y

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

25.50x + 5.50y = 73.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Pick a variable for x and y (x is pants and y is T-shirt)

Since she buys pants and T-shirts you add the two values

Since she spent $73 you make it equal to 73

Answers

I can’t upload any working right now so I hope you’ll understand from an explanation, all it is is a hidden polynomial. You can say:

Let y=x^2
Then the equation becomes:
y^2 - 18y + 81
Factorise that to give you:
(y-9)(y-9) Or (y-9)^2
But remember, y=x^2. So the equation becomes:
(X^2-9)(X^2-9)

Answers

1 width is 64 cm
2 option 2
3 28.5
4 175
5 224

1. A kite has a width to length ratio of 4:5, so let the width be 4x and the length be 5x. We know that the length is 80 cm. 80 = 5x

Divide by 5.

16 = x.

Now, the width is 4x.

16 times 4 is 64.

The width is 64.

2. Find the unit rate for each juice. The unit rate is ml / dollar.

The first juice has a unit rate of 150 / 1.

The second has a unit rate of 500 / 1.75.

The third has a rate of 1000 / 4.

The fourth has a rate of 2000 / 7.25

Put all values into a calculator. (First: 150, Second: 285.714285, Third: 250, Fourth: 275.862068966)

Whichever one can buy the most ml for a dollar is the best buy.

In here, that is the SECOND rate, which is 1.75 for 500 ml.

She earns 3% commission on all her sales, so if s represents her sales, she'd earn .03s. Inhere, she sells $950 in total. That is her total sales.

So you plug $950 into the equation as s.

.03 (950) = 28.5

She earned $28.50.

Poor Maya!

3. You set it up in ratios. She needs 250 mL of milk for every 325 mL of pancake mix. 250 milk / 325 mix.

But she only has 225 mix.

So you set up 250 milk / 325 mix = M milk / 225 mix

As in all proportions, you cross multiply.

250 x 225 = 325 x M

56250 = 325M

Divide by 325 on both sides.

173.076923077 = M

She needs about 175 mL. The fourth choice.

4. There are a total of 1120 spectators, made of only home team fans and visiting team fans.

There is a total of 100% of people, and 80% are supporters of the home team, so to find the supporters of the visiting team you subtract 100% by 80%.

100 - 80 = 20.

So 20% of the spectators are supporters of visiting team. Now 20% of the total, and 20% = .20.

.20 x 1120 = 224

224 people are fans of the visiting team.

5. A 500-mL bottle of insect repellent has 22 mg of DEET, a chemical used to keep mosquitos away. The same insect repellent sells in 710-mL bottles. Which of the following proportions can be used to find the amount of DEET in the larger bottle? *

If a 500 mL bottle has 22mg of DEET, then 500ml / 22mg

So set up the equation 500 / 22 = 710 / x

Now, cross multiply.

500x = 710 times 22.

500x = 15620

Divide by 500.

x = 31.24

Other possible proportions are:

22 / x = 500 / 710

x / 22 = 710 / 500

22 / 500 = x / 710

The ratio is 2in to 8mm
so safe to assume 1in represents 4mm.
1in = 4mm

The equation to find the length is:
1.5in = x mm
if we know that 1in is 4mm, 0.5in is 2 mm. So the answer is:
1.5in = 6mm.

The equation to find the width is:
0.75in = x mm
0.75 is 3/4, and 1in = 4mm, so 3/4 of 4 is 3. Therefore,
0.75in = 3 mm

Finally, the answer is:
Length = 6mm
Width = 3mm
