Look at the pentagonal numbers. Use finite differences to determine which function represents the pattern.

f(x) = 1.5x - 0.5x

f(x) = 1.5x^2 + 1.5x

f(x) = 1.5x^2 - 0.5v

f(x) = 0.5x^2 + 0.5x

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

f(x) = 1.5x - 0.5x

Step-by-step explanation:

The function of the pattern represented by the pentagonal numbers is the sum of three triangular numbers.

The triangular number general formula

                      x (x + 1) / 2

For  example,

The sequence

1,     3,     6,      10

                                             *

                          *              *  *

         *           *   *          *   *  *

* ,    *  *,     *   *   *,     *   *   *  *

_____________________________

The pentagonal numbers

The sequence:

1, 5, 12, 22, 35

As shown in the picture can be divided into three triangles

Triangle 2

x (x + 1) / 2

Triangle 1 and 3  (they are triangles one unit smaller than 2)

n (n + 1) / 2

n= x-1

Replacing n

(x-1) ((x-1) + 1) / 2

(x-1) (x) / 2

(x-1) x / 2

______________

Function represents the pattern

Triangle 2  + (Triangle 1  +  Triangle 3)

Triangle 1  = Triangle 3

So then,

Triangle 2 + 2* Triangle 1

x (x +1) /2  + 2* (x -1) x/2

Rearranging

0.5 x (x +1) + x(x -1)

0.5x^2 + 0.5x + x^2 -x

(0.5 x^2 + x^2)  + (0.5x -x )

1.5 x^2 - 0.5 x

m= -17/1

m=-17

then use point slope formula (y-y1) =m(x-x1)

Sydney currently earns 11.50 an hour working part time. What is the minimum increase per hour she needs to at least match the average annual rate of inflation at three percent

Answers

Answer:

The salary of Sydney to meet the loss due to inflation should be 11.85 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The inflation rate is 3%

This means that the alary amount will reduce by 3%.

3% of Sydney's hourly salary is

[tex]\frac{3}{100} *11.50[/tex] = 0.345

Hence, the new salary must increase by 0.345 dollar per hour

The salary of Sydney to meet the loss due to inflation should be 11.50 + 0.345 = 11.845 or 11.85

Answer: See the image below for the filled out table.

The other root is x = -2

===========================================================

Explanation:

The turning point is at (1, -45) which is the vertex. This is where the graph goes downhill, and then turns around to go uphill, or vice versa. Depending on the direction, the vertex is the lowest point or the highest point on the parabola.

We have (h,k) = (1,-45) as the vertex, so h = 1 and k = -45

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

y = a(x-1)^2 + (-45)

y = a(x-1)^2 - 45

Now plug in any other point from the table. You cannot pick (1,-45) or else you won't be able to solve for the variable 'a'. Let's go for (0,-40)

We'll plug x = 0 and y = -40 into the equation above to solve for 'a'

y = a(x-1)^2 - 45

-40 = a(0-1)^2 - 45

-40 = a(-1)^2 - 45

-40 = a - 45

a-45 = -40

a = -40+45

a = 5

Therefore, the equation for this parabola is

y = 5(x-1)^2 - 45

As a way to check, we can plug in something like x = -3 to find that...

y = 5(x-1)^2 - 45

y = 5(-3-1)^2 - 45

y = 5(-4)^2 - 45

y = 5(16) - 45

y = 80 - 45

y = 35

Which matches what the table shows in the first column. I'll let you verify the other columns. As you can probably guess at this point, we'll plug in the x values to get the corresponding y values.

So for x = -2, we get...

y = 5(x-1)^2 - 45

y = 5(-2-1)^2 - 45

y = 5(-3)^2 - 45

y = 5(9) - 45

y = 45 - 45

y = 0

The result of 0 here indicates we have a root at x = -2. This is the other x intercept. The x intercept already given to us was x = 4.

The rest of the table is filled out using the same idea. You should get what you see below.

For each pair of equations draw the lines for each the point of intersection represents the sol y=3x-1 y=2x

Answers

Answer:

Point of intersection is - (x, y) = (1, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - y=3x-1 y=2x

To find - For each pair of equations draw the lines for each the point of intersection represents the sol.

Proof -

Given that, the two lines are

y = 3x - 1            .........(1)

y = 2x                 .........(2)

For the intersection point, Compare the two equations (1) and (2)

By comparing, we get

3x - 1 = 2x

⇒3x - 2x - 1 = 0

⇒x - 1 = 0

⇒x = 1

Now,

Put the value of x in equation (1), we get

y = 3(1) - 1

   = 3  - 1

   = 2

⇒y = 2

∴ we get

Point of intersection is - (x, y) = (1, 2)

Required

Determine h(-6)

To do this, we make use of:

[tex]h(x) = \frac{x + 4}{10}[/tex]

Because [tex]-7 \le -6 <-5[/tex]

So, we have:

Quick question if I had a problem that was sin x = 18.9/20 =.945 how would I inverse sin of both sides ?

Answers

Answer:

The result is about 70.9 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Easy for a calculator.  If you're not using a calculator, it's much more tedious!

There is an inverse sine key on your calculator, but you may have to press a key (likely labeled 2nd or INV) first.  The attached image shows a TI-83 display.  To get the inverse sine, I first pressed the yellow 2nd key, then the sin key.

Check MODE first to make sure you're measuring angles in degrees (if that's what you want!).  Some calculators display angle mode with a small letter at the top of the display, D, R, or G usually.

The left side of the equation produces just x.

[tex]\sin{x}=.945\\\\\sin^{-1}(\sin{x})=\sin^{-1}(.945)\\x=\sin^{-1}(.945) \approx 70.9^\circ[/tex]

state study on labor reported that one-third of full-time teachers in the state also worked part-time at another job. For those teachers, the average number of hours worked per week at the part-time job was 13. After an increase in state teacher salaries, a random sample of 400 teachers who worked part-time at another job was selected. The average number of hours worked per week at the part-time job for the teachers in the sample was 12.5 with a standard deviation of 6.5 hours. Is there convincing statistical evidence, at the level of α=0.05, that the average number of hours worked per week at part-time jobs decreased after the salary increase?

Answers

Answer: a) no. The p value of the appropriate test is greater than 0.05

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement "No. The p-value of the appropriate test is greater than 0.05." is a correct option (A) is correct.

What is the standard deviation?

It is defined as the measure of data disbursement, It gives an idea about how much is the data spread out.

We have:

Sample size n = 400 teachers

Sample mean X = 12.5 hours

Standard deviation S = 6.5 hours

Population mean u = 13 hours

Null hypothesis H0: u = 13

Alternativ hypothesis u <13

T-test:

[tex]\rm t = \frac{x-u}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]

[tex]\rm t = \frac{12.5-13}{\frac{6.5}{\sqrt{400} } }[/tex]

t = -1.5385

Now degree freedom df = n -1  = 400 - 1

df = 399,  α = 0.05

P-value = p[1+t<-1.5385]

P-value = 0.0624

∴ P-value is greater than α because of this the null hypothesis failed.

Thus, the statement "No. The p-value of the appropriate test is greater than 0.05." is a correct option (A) is correct.

Anita and Brad are each riding on the same bicycle path. Anita began riding at the start of the park and is riding at a rate of 18 miles per hour. Brad began from a spot 10 minutes ahead of her and us riding at a rate of 13 miles per hour. Part A write a system of equations to represent x, the number of hours it takes Anita and abroad to travel y miles along the path. Part B after how many hours do Anita and Brad meet on the path

Answers

Answer:

Part A

The system of equations are;

x = y/18

x + 1/6 = y/13

Part B

13/30 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The path on which Anita is riding = The path on which Brad is riding

The point at which Anita starts riding = The start of the park

The rate at which Anita is riding = 18 miles per hour

The time at which Bras began = 10 minutes ahead of Anita

The rate at which Brad is riding = 13 miles per hour

Part A

Let 'x' represent the number of hours it takes Anita and Brad to travel 'y' miles along the path, we have;

The 'x' number of hours it takes Anita to travel 'y' miles is given as follows;

x = y/18

For Brad, we have;

10 minutes = 1/6 of an hour

The 'x'' number of hours it takes Brad to travel 'y' miles is given as follows;

x' = y/13

The duration Brad has traveled, when Anita has traveled for 'x'' hours = x + 1/6 hour

x' = x + 1/6

∴ x + 1/6 = y/13

Part B

Therefore, to travel the same 'y' mile as Anita , we have;

x + 1/6 = y/13

y = 13 × (x + 1/6) = 13·x + 13/6

y = 13·x + 13/6

For Anita, we had; x = y/18

∴ y = x × 18 = 18·x

Equating both y-values gives;

y = y

∴ 13·x + 13/6 = 18·x

18·x - 13·x = 5·x = 13/6

x = 13/(5 × 6) = 13/30 hours

The number of hours it will take Anita and Brad to meet on the path = 13/30 hours (equivalent to 13/30 hour × 60 minutes/hour = 26 minutes)
