Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

Each term is the sum of the two after it:

a_n = a_n+1 + a_n+2

The next term is:

a₄ = a₅ + a₆

31 = 21 + a₆

a₆ = 10

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost function is

[tex]C=10n+150[/tex]

Where [tex]n[/tex] is the number of buckets of apples sold.

The revenue is defined as

[tex]r=15n[/tex]

The image attached shows both functions graphed in the same coordinate system. According with the graph, the break-even point is at (30,450), that is, 30 of buckets sold and $450 of revenue and cost.

In other words, we need to sell 30 buckets to have the cost and revenue equals.

Therefore, the answer is A.

Answer:

[tex]a_n=-3a_{n-1}[/tex] where [tex]a_1=2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Recursive means you want to define a sequence in terms of other terms of your sequence.

The common ratio is what term divided by previous term equals.

The common ratio here is -6/2=18/-6=-54/18=-3.

Or in terms of the nth and previous term we could say:

[tex]\frac{a_n}{a_{n-1}}=r[/tex]

where r is -3

[tex]\frac{a_n}{a_{n-1}}=-3[/tex]

Multiply both sides by the a_(n-1).

[tex]a_n=-3a_{n-1}[/tex] where [tex]a_1=2[/tex]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

A recursive rule allows us to obtain any term in the sequence from the previous term.

These are the terms of a geometric sequence with common ratio r

r = - 6 ÷ 2 = 18 ÷ - 6 = - 54 ÷ 18 = - 3

Thus to obtain a term in the sequence multiply the previous term by - 3

[tex]a_{n+1}[/tex] = - 3 [tex]a_{n}[/tex] with a₁ = 2

Answer:

D.) 27 * ( 1/3) ^ (x-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because the first value, 27, indicates the rest state, or the y intercept.  The second value, 1/3, is derived from the pattern of the values decreasing by the previous value being divided by 3, or technically multiplied by (1/3).  The (x-1) is derived from the original formula for the geometric series.

f(x) = x * r ^ (n-1)

For any questions or more information, please comment below and I'll respond as soon as possible.

The explicit formula for the geometric sequence is:[tex]a_n = 27 \cdot \left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^{(n-1)}[/tex]

To find the explicit formula for the geometric sequence 27, 9, 3, 1, ..., we first need to identify key components of a geometric sequence.

First Term (a): The first term of this sequence, denoted as [tex]a[/tex], is 27.

Common Ratio (r): The common ratio [tex]r[/tex] is found by dividing the second term by the first term:
[tex]r = \frac{9}{27} = \frac{1}{3}[/tex]
We can check this by calculating further:
[tex]\frac{3}{9} = \frac{1}{3} \quad \text{and} \quad \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1}{3}[/tex]
Thus, the common ratio is consistent at [tex]r = \frac{1}{3}[/tex].

Explicit Formula: The explicit formula for a geometric sequence is given by:
[tex]a_n = a \cdot r^{(n-1)}[/tex]
where [tex]a_n[/tex] is the [tex]n[/tex]-th term, [tex]a[/tex] is the first term, and [tex]r[/tex] is the common ratio.

Substituting in our values:
[tex]a_n = 27 \cdot \left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^{(n-1)}[/tex]

Answer:

The measure of arc a is 86°

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The measure of the inner angle is the semi-sum of the arcs comprising it and its opposite.

so

86°=(1/2)[arc c+arc a]

see the attached figure with letters to better understand the problem

In this problem

Triangles ABO and CDO are congruent by SSS postulate theorem

∠AOB=∠COD

∠AOB=arc a -----> by central angle

∠COD=arc c -----> by central angle

therefore

The measure of arc a is congruent with the measure of arc c

arc a=arc c

so

86°=(1/2)[2arc a]

86°=[arc a]

arc a=86°

Answer:

The pen costs $5.05, and the pencil costs $0.05

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we define 2 variables for the two prices.

Let x = price of the pen.

Let y = price of the pencil.

Now we use the given information to write two equations.

"A pen and a pencil together cost $5.10. "

x + y = 5.1

"The pen cost $5 more than the pencil. "

y = x + 5

The system of equations is:

x + y = 5.1

y = x + 5

Since the second equation is already solved for y, we will use the substitution method to solve the system of equations.

Substitute y of the first equation by x + 5.

x + x + 5 = 5.1

2x + 5 = 5.1

2x = 0.1

x = 0.05   (price of the pencil)

Now substitute 0.05 for x in the second equation.

y = 0.05 + 5

y = 5.05     (price of the pen)

The pen costs $5.05, and the pencil costs $0.05

Final answer:

The pencil costs $0.05 and the pen costs $5.05, with the pen being $5 more expensive than the pencil and the total cost for both being $5.10.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to create equations based on the information given. Let's assign x as the cost of the pencil and x + $5.00 as the cost of the pen, since the pen costs $5 more than the pencil.

According to the problem, the total cost of both items is $5.10, so we can write the equation as follows:

Combining the like terms, we get:

Subtracting $5.00 from both sides, we find:

Dividing both sides by 2 to solve for x:

Thus, the pencil costs $0.05, and the pen, which costs $5 more, is $5.05.

Answer:

A. 7 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that the perimeter of a rectangle is 16 inches. The equation that represents the perimeter of the rectangle is , where l represents the length of the rectangle and w represents the width of the rectangle.

We know that perimeter of rectangle is 2 times the sum of width and length of rectangle.

[tex]\text{Perimeter}=2(l+w)[/tex]

[tex]\text{16 in}=2(l+w)[/tex]

[tex]\frac{\text{16 in}}{2}=\frac{2(l+w)}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\text{8 in}=l+w[/tex]

To be a rectangle length cannot be 8 as length and width of the rectangle is 8 inches.

Therefore, 7 inches the possible value for the length of the rectangle.

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

The area is 5.5 cm squared.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area, you have to find the areas of the rectangle and the triangle separately and then add your two values together.

The formula for the area of a rectangle is as follows:

[tex]A=lw[/tex]

In this formula, "l" refers to length and "w" refers to width.

As shown in the diagram, your length is 1.5 cm and your width is 2 cm.

Simply plug these numbers into the formula and simplify.

[tex]A=1.5*2\\A=3[/tex]

The area of the rectangle is 3 cm squared.

Next, find the area of the triangle. The formula for the area of a triangle is as follows:

[tex]A=\frac{1}{2} bh[/tex]

In this formula, "b" refers to the measure of the base and "h" refers to the measure of the height.

Your base (b) is 2 cm.

To find your height, subtract the length of the rectangle (1.5 cm) from the total length of the shape (4 cm). This will give you a height of 2.5 cm.

Next, plug your values into the formula and simplify.

[tex]A=\frac{1}{2} *2*2.5\\A=1*2.5\\A=2.5[/tex]

The area of the triangle is 2.5 cm squared.

Add the area of the rectangle (3 cm squared) to the area of the triangle (2.5 cm squared), and you have the area of the entire figure (5.5 cm squared).

Note: Carlos' mistake in the problem is that he forgot to subtract the length of the rectangle from the length of the entire shape, and incorrectly used 4 cm as his height for the triangle rather than 2.5 cm.

Answer:

1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the fraction be x/y

(x + 1)/y = 1/2

x/(y - 1) = 1/3          Cross multiply both equations.

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

2*(x + 1) = y           Remove the brackets

2x + 2 = y

################

3x = y - 1               Add 1 to both sides.

3x + 1=y - 1+ 1

3x + 1 = y

#################

Equate both ys

3x + 1 = 2x + 2        Subtract 1 from both sides.

3x + 1-1 = 2x + 2 -1

3x = 2x + 1              Subtract 2x from both sides.

3x-2x = 2x-2x +1    Simplify

x = 1

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

y = 3x + 1

y = 3(1) + 1

y = 3 + 1

y = 4

Answer:

1705/64

Step-by-step explanation:

A geometric series contains terms that are in the form [tex]a_1\cdot(r)^{n-1}[/tex] where [tex]a_1[/tex] is the first term and [tex]r[/tex] is common ratio.

A common ratio is the number that is used to find the next term by multiplying previous term by [tex]r[/tex].

Now we can use a formula and we would be using [tex]S_n=\frac{a_1(1-r^n)}{1-r}[/tex] where n is the number of terms you are adding and [tex]a_1[/tex] is the first term and r is the common ratio.

Before we do that, I'm going to do this without that formula. Sum means we are just going to add these terms after finding them.

The first term is 20.

The second term is (1/4)(20)=5.

Third term is (1/4)(5)=5/4.

Fourth term is (1/4)(5/4)=5/16.

The fifth term is (1/4)(5/16)=5/64.

Now we add them (20)+(5)+(5/4)+(5/16)+(5/64)

Putting this into the calculator gives me: 1705/64.

Now let's do the formula way as well.

Again we have:

r=1/4

[tex]a_1=20[/tex]

n=5 since we adding the first 5 terms:

[tex]S_5=\frac{20(1-(\frac{1}{4})^5}{1-\frac{1}{4}}[/tex]

[tex]S_5=\frac{20(1-\frac{1}{1024}){\frac{3}{4}}[/tex]

[tex]S_5=\frac{20-\frac{20}{1024}}{\frac{3}{4}}[/tex]

Dividing by 3/4 is the same as multiply by 4/3.

[tex]S_5=(20-\frac{20}{1024})\frac{4}{3}[/tex]

[tex]S_5=20 \cdot \frac{4}{3}-\frac{20}{1024}\cdot\frac{4}{3}[/tex]

[tex]S_5=\frac{80}{3}-\frac{5}{256} \cdot \frac{4}{3}[/tex]

[tex]S_5=\frac{80}{3}-\frac{20}{256 \cdot 3}[/tex]

[tex]S_5=\frac{80}{3}-\frac{5}{64 \cdot 3}[/tex]

[tex]S_5=\frac{80}{3}-\frac{5}{192}[/tex]

Multiplying first fraction by 64/64:

[tex]S_5=\frac{80(64)}{3(64)}-\frac{5}{192}[/tex]

[tex]S_5=\frac{5120}{192}-\frac{5}{192}[/tex]

{tex]S_5=\frac{5115}{192}[/tex]

Dividing to and bottom by 3:

[tex]S_5=\frac{1705}{64}[/tex].

Answer:

(f*g)(0)=-2

f(g(0))=5  I think you meant this one based on your answer. Please read lower half of explanation for this answer.  Please ask me any question on this that you have.

Step-by-step explanation:

(f*g)(0) means f(0)*g(0).

f(0) means to replace x with 0 in x^2+1 (since g(x)=x^2+1).

g(0) means to replace x with 0 in x-1 (since g(x)=x-2).

f(0)=0^2+1=0+1=1

g(0)=0-2=-2

So (f*g)(0)=f(0)g(0)=(1)(-2)=-2.

But I guess you didn't mean this because you said the answer is 5...

Oh maybe you mean

[tex](f \circ g)(0)[/tex]?

[tex](f \circ g)(0)[/tex] means [tex]f(g(0))[/tex].

So f(g(0))...we start with the inside first... that is g(0)?

g(0)=-2 (we found this above)

f(g(0))

f(-2)           ->I replaced g(0) with -2

Now f(-2) means to replace x with (-2) in x^2+1 (since f(x)=x^2+1)

So let's do that:

(-2)^2+1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say M is the number of men, W is the number of women, and C is the number of children.

M + W + C = 270

M/W = 4/5

W/C = 10/9

We have three equations and three variables, so we can solve this.  Let's use substitution.

W = 5/4 M

C = 9/10 W

Substitute into the first equation:

M + 5/4 M + 9/10 W = 270

Substitute again:

M + 5/4 M + 9/10 (5/4 M) = 270

Solve:

M + 5/4 M + 9/8 M = 270

8/8 M + 10/8 M + 9/8 M = 270

27/8 M = 270

M = 80

x = − 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

x = - 4, x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² + 2x - 8 = 0

Consider the factors of the constant term ( - 8) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term ( + 2)

The factors are + 4 and - 2, since

4 × - 2 = - 8 and 4 - 2 = + 2, hence

(x + 4)x - 2) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x = - 4

x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

=4

Since + - = - and - - = +

Question 1:

In this question, it's asking you if the decreasing rate is linear or exponential.

The decreasing rate would be linear, due to the fact that it is decreasing at a constant rate of 11%. The decreasing rate doesn't change, which makes this linear.

Question 2:

In this question, it's asking you what would the component's cost be in 3 years if it started off at $120.

To find this, we're going to need multiply the price by -.11, and then subtract to get the price. We would repeat this until we reach 3 years.

Work:

[tex]120*-0.11=-13.2\\\\120-13.2=106.8\ \text{(Year 1)}\\\\106.8*-0.11= -11.748\\\\106.8-11.748=95.05\ \text{(Year 2)}\\\\95.05*-0.11=-10.4555\\\\95.05-10.4555=84.59\ \text{(Year 3)}\\\\\text{In year 3, the cost of the component would be \$84.59}[/tex]

Question 3:

In this question, it asks if the decline in price is linear or exponential.

The decline in price would be exponential, due to the fact that the decrease in price is not always the same, since it changes every year. The price doesn't decrease at the same price each year. As you see from question 2, the change in price is not the same each year.

The price decrease of the computer component is exponential. By using the exponential decay formula, the cost of the component that is $120 today will be approximately $84.96 in three years.

The decline in the price of a computer component that decreases at a rate of 11% per year is an exponential decline. This is because the price reduction each year is based on the current price of the component, not a fixed amount. To calculate the cost three years from now, we can use the formula for exponential decay:

New Value = Original Value × (1 - Rate of Decrease)^Number of Periods

If today's price is $120, the cost after three years would be:

New Price = $120 × (1 - 0.11)^3

New Price = $120 × (0.89)^3

New Price = $120 × 0.708

New Price = $84.96 (rounded to two decimal places)

Therefore, if the component costs $120 today, it will cost approximately $84.96 in three years.

Answer:

x =  -12.42    or  x = 2.42

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 10x - 13 = 17

To solve this using the completing the square method, we will follow the  steps below;

First, we will add 13 to both side of the equation, we want only the x variable to be on the left-hand side of the equation

x^2 + 10x - 13 + 13 = 17 + 13

x^2 + 10x  = 30

The next step is to add both-side of the equation  by square of half of the coefficient of x (that is ; half of 10 is 5, then we will add 5²  to both-side of the equation)

x^2 + 10x + 5²  = 30 + 5²

Then we can now factorize the left-hand side of the equation and at the same time simplify the right-hand side of the equation

(x + 5)²   =   30 + 25

(x + 5)²   = 55

We will then take the square root of both-side of the equation

√(x + 5)²   = ±√55

x + 5  =  ±√55

To get the value of x, we will subtract 5 from both-side of the equation

 x + 5 - 5   =  ±√55 - 5

x =  ±√55  -  5

Either x = + √55 -5  = 7.42 -5 = 2.42

OR

x = -√55 - 5   = -7.42 - 5 = -12.42

Therefore either x =  -12.42    or  x = 2.42

 x =  -12.42    or   2.42

[tex]x^4 - 9x^2 + 8 = 0[/tex]

Substitute [tex]x^2=u[/tex]

[tex]u^2-9u+8=0\\(u-1)(u-8)=0[/tex]

u=1 and u =8

i.e. [tex]x^2=1\\x^2 =8[/tex]

Solving we get

[tex]x=1,-1,2\sqrt{2}, -2\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Option B is right.
