EXPLANATION
The nth term of the sequence is given by
[tex]U_n=a+(n-1)d [/tex]
Where
[tex]a[/tex]
is the first term and
[tex]d[/tex]
is the constant difference.
We were given that,
[tex]a=6[/tex]
S we just need the common difference to write the nth term.
We can get that from another information given to us.
We were also given that the 4th term is 6. This gives the equation.
[tex]a+3d=-6[/tex]
We substitute
[tex]a=6[/tex]
to obtain
[tex]6+3d=-6[/tex]
Or
[tex]2+d=-2[/tex]
This implies,
[tex]d=-2-2[/tex]
[tex]d=-4[/tex]
We substitute these values into the general formula to obtain,
[tex]U_n=6+(n-1)\times-4[/tex]
This gives us,
[tex]U_n=6+-4n+4[/tex]
[tex]U_n=10-4n[/tex]
Hence the nth term of the sequence is,
[tex]10-4n[/tex]
[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = 10 - 4n
this is an arithmetic sequence with n th term
[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = [tex]a_{1}[/tex] + (n - 1 )d
where [tex]a_{1}[/tex] is the first term and d the common difference
given [tex]a_{4}[/tex] = - 6, then
6 + 3d = - 6 ( subtract 6 from both sides )
3d = - 12 ( divide both sides by 3 )
d = - 4 ← common difference hence
[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = 6 - 4 (n - 1 ) = 6 - 4n + 4 = 10 - 4n
Enter the solution (x,y) to the system of equations shown. y=5 , y=2x+16
2x + 16 = 5
2x = -11
x = -5.5
y = 5
(-5.5,5)
Final answer:
The solution to the system of equations y=5 and y=2x+16 is found using substitution, yielding the solution (-5.5, 5).
Explanation:
To solve the system of equations y=5 and y=2x+16, we can use the method of substitution. Since the first equation directly gives us the value of y, we can substitute y = 5 into the second equation to find the corresponding value of x. Doing so, we have 5 = 2x + 16. To solve for x, we subtract 16 from both sides to get -11 = 2x, and then divide both sides by 2 to find that x = -5.5. Thus, the solution to the system is (-5.5, 5).

(f ∘ g)(x) so if g(4) = 8 and f(8) = 22, then (f ∘ g)(4) =
Final answer:
To evaluate (f ∘ g)(4), we substitute the value of g(4) into f(x) which gives us 22.
Explanation:
To find (f ∘ g)(4), we need to first evaluate g(4) and then plug that value into f(x). Given that g(4) = 8 and f(8) = 22, we can substitute 8 into f(x) as follows:
(f ∘ g)(4) = f(g(4))
(f ∘ g)(4) = f(8)
(f ∘ g)(4) = 22
An Uber fare in San Diego is $3.50 for the first ½ mile and additional mileage charged at a rate of $0.30 for each additional 0.1 mile. You plan to give the driver a $2 tip. How many miles can you ride for $15? Please show or explain your calculations.
Answer:
3.6 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
For a trip of x miles, there are x-0.5 miles of it that are "additional", which makes (x-0.5)/0.1 additional tenths.
Then the charges (in dollars) are ...
... 3.50 + 0.30(x -0.5)/0.1
Adding a tip of $2 and requiring the total be less than $15 gives ...
... 3.50 + 0.30(x -0.5) + 2.00 ≤ 15.00
... 5.50 + 3(x - 0.5) ≤ 15.00 . . . . simplify a bit
... 4.00 +3x ≤ 15.00 . . . . . . . . . . simplify more
... 3x ≤ 11.00 . . . . . . subtract 4.00
... x ≤ 3.667 . . . . . . divide by 3
Miles are measured in tenths. We cannot go 3.7 miles on $15, but we can go 3.6 miles.

You invest $2,500 in an account that grows 5% each year. What will be your investment amount after 6 years?
A.
$2,699.72
B.
$3,374.65
C.
$15,769.07
D.
$13,272.96
B
A(6) = 2500 × [tex]e^{(0.05(6))}[/tex] = 2500 × [tex]e^{0.3}[/tex] = $3, 374.65
My investment amount will be 3374.65 rupees after 6 years.
So, option B is the correct answer.
What is Euler's number ?
A(t) [tex] = p {e}^{rt} [/tex] is known as Euler's number.
A is the desired amount per account/price/population/etc. equal
P is the principal or amount you start with.
e is a particular irrational number that is approximately 2.718. Just as pi is a concrete irrational number, so is e. The Euler number is often used as a title for e. Just as pi is an infinite non-repeating decimal, so is e. And just as many people use 3.14 to approximate pi, some use 2.718 for e. However, using the special π button on the calculator gives a more accurate answer than 3.14, and using the e button on the calculator is more accurate than using 2.718.
r is a rate written as a decimal, not a percentage.
t is time.
Let's say you have a population of bacteria that is constantly growing at a rate of 15% per hour. If there were 40 bacteria at the beginning of the experiment, how many bacteria will there be after 8 hours?
A is the amount after 8 hours, it's unknown, so I'll just use the variable A.
P initially has 40 bacteria.
e I use the “e” button on my calculator.
r is the hourly rate of 15%, I write it as 0.15
t is time, in this case 8 hours.
A = 40•e^(0.15•8)
A = 132.8, you need to round down because you haven't reached the next whole number of bacteria.
132 bacteria after 8 hours.
Here given,invest amount is $2,500 and rate of interest is 5% and total time period is 6 years.
Here we need to use continuous function A(t)[tex] = p {e}^{rt} [/tex]
Where P is principal,r rate of interest is interest and t is time.
Now,
[tex]p = 2500 \\ r = 5\% = 0.05\\ t = 6 \: years[/tex]
So,after 6 years the amount become ,A(6)
= [tex]2500 \times {e}^{0.05 \times 6} \\ = 2500 \times {e}^{0.3} [/tex]
[tex] = 2500 \times 1.34986 \\ = 3374.65[/tex]
Therefore,my investment amount will be 3374.65 rupees after 6 years.

One ordered pair (a,b) satisfies the two equations ab^4 = 12 and a^5 b^5 = 7776. What is the value of 'a' in this ordered pair?
Answer:
a = 4.762203156
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
ab^4 = 12 and a^5b^5 = 7776
Making the equations a subject of a;
a = 12/b^4 and a^5 = 7776/b^5
Finding fifth root on both sides of equation two;
a = [tex]\sqrt[5]{7776}[/tex]/b
You will get a = 6/b
Equating the two equations;
12/b^4 = 6/b
Multiplying both sides by b^4 gives:
b = [tex]\sqrt[3]{2}[/tex] = 1.25992105
We had that a = 12/b^4 so;
a = 12/1.25992105^4 = 12/2.5198421 = 4.762203156
I need a little help! Can someone check my work? It's a written response with linear systems.
Task 1: You are given a linear system of two equations in two unknowns. Before solving, describe how can you mentally check whether the system is independent and consistent? In which order would you do your check? Why?
My thoughts are that you'd check to see if they are different or not, because if they are equal then they won't be consistent or independent, they'll be inconsistent or dependent. I'm not sure which order I would check them though. I'm actually not sure if my logic is even correct :/
Answer:
I'd say you need to be more specific.
Step-by-step explanation:
"Different" doesn't tell you much.
Consider the equations ...
y = 2x + 14x - 2y = -2These equations are "different", but they are dependent.
_____
I'd mentally (or actually) put the equations in the same form and compare the coefficients of x and y. If they have different ratios, the system is independent and consistent.
If they have the same ratio, the system will not have a single solution. Whether there is no solution or an infinite number of solutions depends on the constant, which I would examine next.
The system above can be put in the form
2x -y = -14x -2y = -2In both cases, the ratio of the x coefficient to the y coefficient is 2/-1 = 4/-2 = -2. This means the lines are at least parallel, if not identical. The numbers in the second equation are all 2 times the numbers in the first equation, so the equations are dependent, and there are an infinite number of solutions. (Both describe the same line.)
If the second equation were 4x -2y = 1, then the two equations would be describing parallel lines, so they would be called inconsistent.

1. y = 2 x + 3
y = 3
2. y = 2 x - 5
y = x
3. y = 4x + 10
y = -6
(1)
substitute y = 3 into the other equation
3 = 2x + 3 ( subtract 3 from both sides )
0 = 2x → x = 0
solution : (x, y) → (0, 3 )
(2)
substitute y = x into the other equation
x = 2x - 5 ( subtract x and add 5 to both sides )
5 = x then y = x so y = 5
solution : (x, y) → (5, 5 )

There are a couple of different strategies you can employ to eliminate possibilities.
1. Since the equations involve fractions, you can look only at answers that deal well with the fractions. That is, look for x-values that are multiples of 3 and y-values that are multiples of 5. Right away, this suggests you are not interested in choices B and C.
2. You can look at the general nature of the equations to see where the lines lie on a graph. It can be handy to know that intercept form is ...
... x/a + y/b = 1
where a and b are the x- and y-intercepts, respectively. That is, you can divide by the constant on the right (or just pay attention to its sign) to check the signs of the intercepts. For the first equation, the intercepts are both negative. Hence there cannot be any 1st-quadrant solutions. (That line never goes through the first quadrant—eliminating choices C and D.)
Likewise, the intercepts for the second equation are both positive, so it will never go through the third quadrant—eliminating choice B.

A survey of 80 students found that 24 students both play in a band and play a sport. But 22 students are not in band and do not play a sport. There are 48 students in the band. If being in band is the row variable and playing sports is the column variable, fill in the labels in the table.
Determine what each letter in the table should be to complete this two-way table.
b =
d =
f =
g =
h =
Answer:
b = 24
d = 10
f = 32
g = 34
h = 46
Step-by-step explanation:
From the given table we find that students who are in band = 48
So 24 + b = 48
b = 48 - 24
b = 24
Total students who do not play sports = h
And h = students in band + students not in band
h = b + 22
h = 24 + 22 = 46
h = 46
Total students who play sports and who do not play sports = 80
g + h = 80
g + 46 = 80
g = 80 - 46 = 34
g = 34
Total students who are not in band and not in band = 80
48 + f = 80
f = 80 - 48
f = 32
Students who are not in Band but either play sports or do not play sports = f
d + 22 = f
d + 22 = 32
d = 32 - 22 = 10
d = 10
Using the change of subject, the values of the alphabet b, d, f g, h calculated from the table are 24, 10, 32, 34, and 46 respectively.
To find b :
24 + b = total
24 + b = 48
b = 48 - 24
b = 24
To find h :
b + 22 = total
b + 22 = h
24 + 22 = 46
h = 46
To find g :
g + h = 80
g + 46 = 80
g = 80 - 46
g = 34
To find d :
24 + d = g
24 + d = 34
d = 34 - 24
d = 10
To find f :
d + 22 = f
10 + 22 = f
f = 32
Therefore, the values of b, d, f g, h are 24, 10, 32, 34, and 46 respectively.

Mike Morgan has a $83,098.59 loan. He paid $1,000 in fees and $4,900 in total interest the first year. If the APR is the finance charge (interest plus fees) for one year ÷ amount financed, what was the APR for that year?
A) 7.5
B) 7.1
C) 7.3
Total of fees: 1,000 + 4,900 = 5,900
You are told the APR is the total fees divided by the amount financed, so divide the total fees by the amount financed:
5,900 / 83,098.59 = 0.71
0.71 x 100 = 7.1% APR.

A bag of marbles contains 7 red, 5 blue, 4 green, and 2 yellow marbles. Jon selects a marble, replaces it, then selects another marble. What is the probability that Jon selects a red marble and then a yellow marble?
Answer: about 0.0432 or 4.32%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : A bag of marbles contains 7 red, 5 blue, 4 green, and 2 yellow marbles.
Total marbles = 7+5+4+2=18
Let R : Event of getting first marble as red .
Y= Event of getting second marble as yellow.
Jon selects a marble, replaces it, then selects another marble.
⇒Both events are independent .
Probability of getting first marble as red = [tex]P(R)=\dfrac{\text{Number of red marbles}}{\text{Total marbles}}[/tex]
[tex]\\\\=\dfrac{7}{18}[/tex]
Probability of getting second marble as yellow = [tex]P(Y)=\dfrac{\text{Number of yellow marbles}}{\text{Total marbles}}[/tex]
[tex]\\\\=\dfrac{2}{18}[/tex]
Now, the probability that Jon selects a red marble and then a yellow marble :
[tex]P(R)\times P(Y)=\dfrac{7}{18}\times\dfrac{2}{18}\approx0.0432=4.32\%[/tex] [ ∵ Event R and Y are independent .]
Hence, the probability that Jon selects a red marble and then a yellow marble is about 0.0432 or 4.32%.
find the area of the regular decagon if the apothem is 5 inches and a side is 3.2 inches. Round to the nearest whole number
When you are given the side length and apothem of a regular polygon and asked for area, you are expected to use the formula
... A = (1/2)Pa
where P is the perimeter of the polygon, "a" is the apothem, and A is the area.
The only additional information you need is that a decagon has 10 sides, so its perimeter is 10×3.2 inches = 32 inches.
The area is ...
... A = (1/2)(32 in)(5 in)
... A = 80 in²
_____
Sometimes the dimensions of a problem like this don't quite add up. The geometry of a regular polygon means that the apothem can be found from the side length and vice versa. In this case, the side length of 3.2 inches means the apothem is about 4.92 inches; or the apothem of 5 inches means the side length is about 3.25 inches. Either way, the area is slightly different from that computed using the given numbers.
This is why I say you're expected to use the above formula. (You're not expected to think about it too much.)
