I need to simplify for the question

Final answer:

The recursive formula for the sequence 3, 6, 9, ... is represented by option A: f(n) = f(n - 1) + 3, which states that each term is 3 more than the previous term, starting with f(1) = 3. Option a

Explanation:

To write a recursive formula for the sequence 3, 6, 9, ..., we need to observe the pattern of the sequence. Since each term increases by 3 from the previous term, we can express this as:

f(n) = f(n − 1) + 3 for n > 1,

with a starting value f(1) = 3. This represents the first term in the sequence. Therefore, the correct answer is A: f(n) = f(n − 1) + 3.

The other options suggest either multiplying the preceding term by 2 or 3, or adding 2 to the preceding term, but those operations do not describe the given sequence. Option a

To minimize the cost of the diet while meeting the vitamin requirements, we can use a system of linear equations to solve a linear programming problem. The optimal solution will provide the pounds of each type of food to be purchased.

To solve this problem, we can use a system of linear equations. Let's assume that we buy x pounds of type X food and y pounds of type Y food. The requirements for Vitamin A and Vitamin B can be expressed as the following inequalities: 10x + 30y ≥ 140 (for Vitamin A) and 20x + 15y ≥ 145 (for Vitamin B). We also need to minimize the cost, which can be expressed as the objective function: Cost = 12x + 8y. So, we have a linear programming problem.

To find the minimum cost, we can graph the feasible region defined by the inequalities and find the corner point with the lowest cost. Alternatively, we can use a method like the Simplex algorithm to solve the system of equations and find the optimal solution. The solution will give us the values of x and y that satisfy the requirements and minimize the cost.

Once we find the optimal solution, we can round the values of x and y to the nearest hundredths and provide the student with the pounds of each type of food to be purchased.

Answer:

The correct option is (a+b)+c

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct option is (a+b)+c

According to the Associative property for Addition:

a+(b+c)=(a+b)+c

The associative property states that you can add or multiply regardless of how the numbers are grouped.

.If you are adding or multiplying it does not matter where you put parenthesis.

Thus the correct option is A....

[tex]\huge{\boxed{(a+b)+c}}[/tex]

For example, [tex]2+(3+4)=2+7=9[/tex].

If we group the terms differently, it doesn't matter. [tex](2+3)+4=5+4=9[/tex]

This is called the associative property of addition. As long as you still have all of the terms, and there are no other operations (subtraction, multiplication, etc.), the final answer will remain the same no matter how the terms are grouped.

Step-by-step explanation:

First put the set in order from least to greatest:

4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 11, 12, 15, 16

To find the range you subtract the largest number by the smallest number.

4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 11, 12, 15, 16

So 16 - 4 = 12

So the range is 12.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The greatest value in the data is 16.

The lowest value in the data is 4.

The range is the difference between the highest and the lowest values.

range = 16 - 4 = 12

Answer:

If you're trying to find x or y, you cannot find the exact value since there is one equation. If there was, for example, 2 equations, [a system of equations] you could solve that. But here we only have one equation.

Answer:

B. -3 - 5i

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the complex conjugate of a complex number, just change the sign of the imaginary part.

The complex conjugate of a + bi is a  bi.

In this case, the complex conjugate of 3 + 5i is -3 - 5i.

A complex conjugate of a complex number a + bi is a - bi. It is obtained by changing the sign of the imaginary part. It is useful for performing mathematical operations with complex numbers.

The complex conjugate of a complex number is defined as changing the sign of the imaginary part of that number. If the complex number is expressed in the form a + bi, where a and b are real numbers and 'i' is the square root of -1 representing the imaginary unit, its complex conjugate is a - bi. The definition of a complex conjugate is very important in the study of complex numbers because it allows for the multiplication and division of complex numbers in a way that results in real numbers. We use this conjugate to calculate the magnitude or modulus of a complex number as well.

Answer:

The  process of calculating successive discounts of 8% and 10% on a $50 item is take 10% of $46.

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

successive discounts of 8% and 10% on a $50 item .

First find out for 8 % discount

8% is written in the decimal form

= 0.08

8 % of $50 item = 0.08 × 50

                          = $ 4

Price of item after 8% discount = 50 - 4

                                                    = $46  

First find out for 10 % discount

10% is written in the decimal form

= 0.1

8 % of $48 item = 0.1× 46

                          = $4.6

Price of item after 8% discount = 46 - 4.6

                                                    = $41.4

Therefore in the successive discounts of 8% and 10% on a $50 item is $41.4 .

The final price after applying the successive discounts is $41.40

To calculate successive discounts of 8% and 10% on a $50 item, follow these steps:

First, convert the first discount of 8% to a decimal by dividing 8 by 100, which gives 0.08.

Multiply the original price of the item, $50.00, by 0.08 to find the amount of the first discount: $50.00 x 0.08 = $4.00.

Subtract the first discount from the original price to find the new price: $50.00 - $4.00 = $46.00.

Next, convert the second discount of 10% to a decimal by dividing 10 by 100, which gives 0.10.

Multiply the new price of the item, $46.00, by 0.10 to find the amount of the second discount: $46.00 x 0.10 = $4.60.

Finally, subtract the second discount from the new price to find the final price: $46.00 - $4.60 = $41.40.

The final price after applying the successive discounts is $41.40.

Using the quadratic formula x = (-b ± √(b^2 - 4ac)) / (2a) to find the solutions, which are (13 + √185) / 2 and (13 - √185) / 2.

To find the solutions of the equation x^2 = -13x - 4, we can rearrange it to the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0.

In this case, we have a = 1, b = -13, and c = -4.

We can then use the quadratic formula x = (-b ± √(b^2 - 4ac)) / (2a) to find the solutions.

Substituting the values into the formula, we get x = (-(-13) ± √((-13)^2 - 4(1)(-4))) / (2(1)). Simplifying further, we have x = (13 ± √(169 + 16)) / 2. T

herefore, the solutions of the equation are x = (13 + √185) / 2 and x = (13 - √185) / 2.

The perimeter of the triangle is 135 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to find the perimeter of a triangle

- The perimeter of any triangle is the sum of the lengths of its three sides

- The perimeter of the scalene triangle is P = S1 + S2 + S3

- The perimeter of the isosceles triangle is P = 2S + S1

- The perimeter of the equilateral triangle is P = 3S

* Lets solve the problem

∵ The length of the 1st side is 55 cm

∴ S1 = 55 cm

∵ The length of the 2nd side is 48 cm

∴ S2 = 48 cm

∵ The length of the 3rd side is 32 cm

∴ S3 = 32 cm

∵ The triangle is scalene

∴ P = S1 + S2 + S3

∴ P = 55 + 48 + 32 = 135 cm

* The perimeter of the triangle is 135 cm

[tex](f+g)(x) = \frac{x}{2}-3+(3x^2+x-6) \\(f+g)(x) = \frac{x}{2}-3+3x^2+x-6\\(f+g)(x) = 3x^2+\frac{x}{2}+x-3-6\\(f+g)(x) = 3x^2+\frac{3x}{2}-9\\(f+g)(x) = \frac{6x^2+3x-18}{2}[/tex]

so, (f+g)(x) is:

Answer:

-4<x<-1

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the problem, we divide the whole expression by 2:

2x^2 + 10x < –8 → x^2 + 5x < –4

→  x^2 + 5x + 4 < 0

Factorizing

→ (x+4)(x+1) < 0

The expression is ONLY negative when:

x>-4 and x<-1

Therefore, the solution is:

-4<x<-1

The inequality 2x2 + 10x < -8 should be rearranged to 2x2 + 10x + 8 < 0. It can't be factored so we must use the quadratic formula to solve it. The solution involves finding the values of x that make the function positive or negative.

To solve the inequality 2x2 + 10x < -8, we first need to arrange the terms. To do so, we can subtract 8 from each side of the inequality obtaining 2x2 + 10x + 8 < 0.

However, this is a quadratic inequality that is best solved by factoring, if possible. Let's try to factor our quadratic expression, but keep in mind that not all quadratic expressions can be factored. In this case, it is not factorable. Therefore, it must be solved by using the quadratic formula, which is x = [-b ± sqrt(b2-4ac)]/2a.

Take note the a, b, and c values from our inequality (a=2, b=10, c=8), and substitute these values into the quadratic formula. However, this approach will solve for 'x' in an equation, not an inequality.

To solve for 'x' in the inequality, we have to find the values of 'x' that make the function positive or negative, depending on the type of the inequality. We determine those values by solving the equation f(x) = 0, where f(x) is the left side of our inequality.

It is a complex process that requires understanding of both quadratic functions and inequalities. Following these steps and calculating correctly should lead you to the solution.
