A video sharing website starts with 20,000 members. Each year it loses 25% of the members, but adds 10,000 new members after the reduction. Write a recursive rule to find the number of members for any year.

Answers

Final answer:

To find the number of members for any year on the video sharing website, use the recursive rule with a base case of 20,000 initial members and apply the recursive step Mₙ = 0.75 × Mₙ₋₁ + 10,000 for each subsequent year.

Explanation:

The situation described can be modeled with a recursive rule where each year's membership is based on the previous year's membership.

To write such a rule, we'll use Mn to denote the number of members in year n, and Mn-1 to denote the number of members in the previous year.

The recursive rule is as follows:

Base case: M0 = 20,000 (initial number of members)Recursive step: Mₙ= 0.75 × Mₙ₋₁ + 10,000 for n > 0

This means that for any year n, the number of members is equal to 75% of the previous year's members plus an additional 10,000 new members.

Fill in the table and guess the value of the limit: \lim\limits_{x \to 3} f(x), where f(x)= \frac {x^3 - 27} {x^2 - 9}

Answers

Try this option:
[tex] \lim_{x \to 3} \frac{x^3-27}{x^2-9} = \lim_{x \to 3} \frac{x^2+3x+9}{x+3}= \frac{27}{6}= \frac{9}{2} [/tex]

Final answer:

To find the limit of f(x) as x approaches 3, factor the numerator and denominator as differences of squares, cancel common terms, and substitute x = 3 into the simplified fraction to get the limit, which is 4.5.

Explanation:

The student's schoolwork question involves calculating the limit of a function as x approaches a certain value. Specifically, the function in question is f(x) = (x^3 - 27) / (x^2 - 9) and the limit to be computed is limx → 3 f(x). To solve this, first recognize that directly substituting x = 3 would result in a 0/0 indeterminate form. To find the limit, we'll use algebraic manipulation.

Since both the numerator and the denominator are differences of squares, factoring them would give (x-3)(x^2+3x+9) for the numerator and (x-3)(x+3) for the denominator. The x-3 terms cancel out, leaving us with x^2+3x+9 over x+3. Now, substituting x = 3 into the simplified fraction will provide the value of the limit.

Calculating the limit step by step:

Original function: f(x) = (x^3 - 27) / (x^2 - 9)

Factor both numerator and denominator: f(x) = [(x-3)(x^2+3x+9)] / [(x-3)(x+3)]

Cancel out (x-3) terms: f(x) = (x^2+3x+9) / (x+3)

Substitute x = 3: f(3) = (3^2+3*3+9) / (3+3) = (9+9+9) / 6 = 27 / 6 = 4.5

The Chang's neighbor owns a ready-mix company. The company receives an order for 12.5 cubic yards of concrete. This mixture of concrete contains sand, cement, gravel, and water. For each pound of water, there are 5.5 pounds of sand, 2 pounds of cement, and 7.5 pounds of gravel. Determine how many pounds of cement must be used. Assume a cubic yard of concrete weighs 4,000 pounds.

Answers

The quantities in the proportion you give add to 16 pounds, of which 2 pounds are cement. That is, cement constitutes 1/8 of the total weight.

For each yard of concrete, 4000 lb/8 = 500 lb of cement are used.

For 12.5 yards of concrete, 12.5 * 500 = 6,250 pounds of cement will be used.

a motorboat travels 432 kilometers on 6 hours going upstream and 384 km in 4 hours going downstream. What is the rate of the boat in still water and what is the rate of the current.
please help slove and steps

Answers

Going upstream: 432 km / 6 hours = 72 km/h
Going downstream: 384 km / 4 hours = 96 km/h
Going upstream against the current means that the effective speed is:
r_boat - r_current = 72
Meanwhile, going downstream with the current means;
r_boat + r_current = 96
Adding both equations (to cancel out r_current) gives:
2r_boat = 72 + 96
r_boat = 84 km/h
Substituting back into one of the original equations: r_current = 12 km/h.

a chord of length 24cm is 13cm from the centre of the circle. caculate the radius of the circle

Answers

Answer:  The radius is:  " 17.692 cm " .
_____________________________________________________
Note:
_____________________________________________________
The line segments are:   "(r + 13)" and "(r –13)" ; 

24cm / 2 = 12 ; 

(r + 13)(r–13) = 12² = 12 * 12 - 144 ; 

(r + 13)(r–13) = 144 ; 

Note:  (a + b)(c + d) = ac + ad + bc + bd ;

So:  Given:  " (r + 13)(r–13) " ; 

 →  " (r + 13)(r–13) "  =  " (r * r) + (r * -13) + (13*r) + (13* -13) " ; 

                                 =  "  r² + (-13r) + 13r + (-169) " ; 

                                 =  "  r² – 13r + 13r – 169 " ; 

                                 =  r² – 169 ; 

→  r² – 169 = 144 ; 

Add  " 169 " to each side of the equation; 

→ r² – 169 + 169 = 144 + 169 ;

to get:

→ r²  = 313  ;

Take the "positive square root" of EACH SIDE of the equation;
    to isolate "r" on one side of the equation; & to solve for "r" (the "radius") ;

→  √(r²)  =  √313 ;

→  r = 17.6918060129541325 cm.

An airline sells all tickets for a certain route at the same price. if it charges 250 dollars per ticket it sells 5000 tickets. for every 5 dollars the ticket price is reduced, an extra 500 tickets are sold. it costs the airline a hundred dollars to fly a person. what price will generate the greatest profit for the airline?

Answers

let's look at the demand quantity as a function of price. Th problem tells us that q(250)= 500
the rate of change of q is a constant, thus, q is a line whose slope is -500/5=-100 tickets/ dollar.
therefore we shall have:
q(p)=5000-100(p-250)=3000-100p

the revenue for each price will be:
r(p)=p×q(p)=p(30000-100p)

next we get the total cost which is:
100×q, where q is the number of people who will fly.
but q=30000-100p
hence
c(p)=100(30000-100p)

the profit will be:
Profit=revenue-cost
=r(p)-c(p)=p(30000-100p)-100(30000-100p)
this will be written in quadratic form as:
(p-100)(30000-p)
next we find p that maximizes the profit function
(p-100)(30000-p)=-p²+30100p-3000000
when you take the derivative of the above, the maximum point will be at p=200, this will give us the profit of:
p(200)=-200²+30100(200)-3000000=1000000

In a lot (collection) of 100 light bulbs, there are 5 defective bulbs. an inspector inspects 10 bulbs selected at random. find the probability of finding at least one defec- tive bulb. hint: first compute the probability of finding no defectives in the sample.

Answers

Probability of finding no defective bulb

=>
Probability of finding at least one defective bulb
=1-110983/190120
= 79137/190120
= 0.41625 (to 5 decimal places)
Final answer:

To determine the probability of finding at least one defective bulb in the lot of 100 bulbs, one must calculate the complementary event, picking no defective bulbs, and subtract its probability from 1.

Explanation:

This problem involves Probability and Combinatorics, fundamental branches in Mathematics to calculate the possible outcomes in an event. Here, to calculate the probability of finding at least one defective bulb, we can begin by calculating the complementary event, that is, finding no defective bulbs in a sample.

The total number of ways to pick 10 bulbs from 100 is the combination C(100, 10). Likewise, the total number of ways to pick 10 non-defective bulbs from the 95 non-defective bulbs in the lot is C(95, 10). The probability of picking 10 non-defective bulbs then is C(95, 10)/C(100, 10).

Since the event of finding 'at least one defective bulb' is the complementary of 'finding no defective bulbs', we can subtract this probability from 1. So, the probability of finding at least one defective bulb is 1 - (C(95, 10)/C(100, 10)).

A shipment of 20tvs contains 5 that are defective. if 10 of them are randomly chosen for inspection, what is the probability that 2 out of 10 will be defective?

Answers

1/4 of the shipment is defective so if half is randomly chosen to test the answer would be 5/20 or 2/10  so 1/4 or 1/5 

Final answer:

Using the hypergeometric distribution, the probability that exactly 2 out of 10 TVs randomly chosen from a shipment of 20 are defective is approximately 34.81%.

Explanation:

To find the probability that exactly 2 out of 10 randomly chosen TVs are defective, we can use the hypergeometric distribution. This distribution applies because we are dealing with a scenario where we have a finite population (20 TVs) and a non-replacement condition (once a TV is chosen for inspection, it is not put back).

The probability formula for the hypergeometric distribution is:

P(X = k) = [(C(g, k) * C(N-g, n-k)) / C(N, n)]

Where:

C(a, b) is the combination of a items taken b at a time.N is the total number of items in the population (20 TVs).g is the number of defective items in the population (5 defective TVs).n is the number of items chosen (10 TVs inspected).k is the number of defective items we're interested in finding within the chosen items (2 defective TVs).

Plugging the numbers into the formula, we have:

P(X = 2) = [(C(5, 2) * C(15, 8)) / C(20, 10)]

P(X = 2) = [(10 * 6435) / 184756]

P(X = 2) = [64350 / 184756] ≈ 0.3481

So, the probability that exactly 2 out of 10 TVs inspected will be defective is approximately 0.3481 or 34.81%.

This is an incomplete question, here is the complete question.

The three-dimensional figure shown consists of a cylinder and a right circular cone. The radius of the base is 10 centimeters. The height of the cylinder is 16 centimeters, and the total height of the figure is 28 centimeters. The slant height of the cone is 13 centimeters. Which choice is the best approximation of the surface area of the figure? Use 3.14 to approximate pi.

(1) 1727 cm²

(2) 2355 cm²

(3) 2041 cm²

(4) 6699 cm²

Answer : The surface area of the figure is, 1727 cm²

Step-by-step explanation :

The formula for curved surface area of triangle is:

[tex]A=\pi \times r\times l[/tex]

where,

r and l are radius and slant height of triangle.

The formula for curved surface area of cylinder is:

[tex]A=2\pi \times r\times h[/tex]

where,

r and h are radius and height of cylinder.

The formula for area of circle is:

[tex]A=\pi r^2[/tex]

where,

r is radius circle.

Now we have to calculate the surface area of total figure.

Surface area of total figure = Surface area of triangle + Surface area of cylinder + Area of circle

Surface area of total figure = [tex]\pi \times r\times l+2\pi \times r\times h+\pi r^2[/tex]

Surface area of total figure = [tex]\pi \times r(l+2h+r)[/tex]

Given:

r = 10 cm

h = 16 cm

l = 13 cm

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get:

Surface area of total figure = [tex]3.14\times 10\times (13+2\times 16+10)[/tex]

Surface area of total figure = 1727 cm²

Thus, the surface area of the figure is, 1727 cm²

A body oscillates with simple harmonic motion along the x-axis. its displacement varies with time according to the equation x(t) = a sin(ω t + φ). if a = 5 m, ω = 3.444 rad/s, and φ = 1.0472 rad, what is the acceleration of the body at t = 3 s? note: the argument of the sine function is in radians rather than degrees. answer in units of m/s 2 .

Answers

My graphing calculator says the acceleration at that time si 54.995 m/s.

The acceleration of the body at t = 3 seconds is approximately  [tex]\( -58.58785 \, \text{m/s}^2 \).[/tex]

To find the acceleration of the body at ( t = 3 ) seconds, we need to find the second derivative of the displacement function [tex]\( x(t) \)[/tex] with respect to time t.

Given that[tex]\( x(t) = a \sin(\omega t + \phi) \)[/tex] , where [tex]\( a = 5 \) m, \( \omega = 3.444 \) rad/s, and \( \phi = 1.0472 \)[/tex] rad, the acceleration a(t) is the second derivative of of x(t) with respect to t:

First, let's find the first derivative of of x(t) with respect to t:

[tex]\[ v(t) = \frac{dx}{dt} = a \omega \cos(\omega t + \phi) \][/tex]

Now, let's find the second derivative of x(t) with respect to t:

[tex]\[ a(t) = \frac{d^2x}{dt^2} = -a \omega^2 \sin(\omega t + \phi) \][/tex]

Now, substitute the given values:

[tex]\[ a(t) = -5 \times (3.444)^2 \sin(3.444 \times 3 + 1.0472) \][/tex]

Now, calculate:

[tex]\[ a(t) = -5 \times (3.444)^2 \sin(10.332 + 1.0472) \]\[ a(t) = -5 \times (3.444)^2 \sin(11.3792) \][/tex]

Now, compute:

[tex]\[ a(t) = -5 \times (11.858736) \sin(11.3792) \]\[ a(t) \approx -5 \times (11.858736) \times 0.97989 \]\[ a(t) \approx -58.58785 \, \text{m/s}^2 \][/tex]

Therefore, the acceleration of the body at t = 3 seconds is approximately  [tex]\( -58.58785 \, \text{m/s}^2 \).[/tex]

So, we compare this form with the options provided.

We see that in option A the exponential function is multiplied by 3 and so the function will be stretched vertically.

Hence, option A is correct.

PART A
 First we define the variables:
 x: number of pounds in the bag
 y: number of pounds of oats
 The equation to find the number of pounds of oats in the bag is:
 y = (20/100) x
 Simplifying:
 y = (1/5) x
 (1/5): Represents that 20% of the weight of the bag is oatmeal.
 Answer:
 y = (1/5) x

 PART B
 
Using the equation of part A, we have:
 y = (1/5) (2)
 y = 0.4 lb
 Answer:
 
0.4 lb corresponds to the oat weight of the 2 lb that the bag weighs

Whats the sum 3/x + 4/x^2

Answers

the sum is 3x+4/x^2

But that is if the x in the second part is supposed to be squared

Answer:

[tex]\frac{3x+4}{x^2} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

sum of [tex]\frac{3}{x} + \frac{4}{x^2}[/tex]

To find the sum of two fractions we need to make the denominator same

LCD is x^2. we need to get x^2 in the denominator of both fractions

Multiply the first fraction with x

[tex]\frac{3 \cdot x}{ \cdot x} + \frac{4}{x^2}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{3x}{x^2} + \frac{4}{x^2}[/tex]

Denominators are same , now we add the numerators

[tex]\frac{3x+4}{x^2} [/tex]

The function h(t) = -2 (t-3)^2 +23 represents the height in feet, t seconds after a volleyball is served which of the following statements are correct
A. the volleyball reached it's maximum height of 3 sec
B. The maximum height of the vollybal was 23 ft
C. If the vball is not returned by the opposing team it will hit the ground in 5.5 sec
D. The graph that models the volleyball height over time is exponential
E. The vball was served from a height of 5 ft

Answers

A) The volleyball reached its maximum height after 3 seconds.
b) The maximum height of the volleyball was 23 feet.
e) The volleyball was served for a height of 5 feet.

Answer:

A. the volleyball reached it's maximum height of 3 sec

B. The maximum height of the vollybal was 23 ft

E. The vball was served from a height of 5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

h(t) = -2 (t-3)^2 +23

Given equation is in the form of [tex]f(x)= a(x-h)^2 + k[/tex]

(h,k) is the vertex

Now we compare f(x) with h(t)

h(t) = -2 (t-3)^2 +23

h = 3  and k = 23

Vertex is (3,23)

h=3 . this means the volleyball reaches its maximum height in 3 seconds

k = 23. this means the volleyball reaches the maximum height of 23 ft

When ball reaches the ground the height becomes 0. so plug in 0 for h(t) and solve for t

0= -2 (t-3)^2 +23

Subtract 23 on both sides

-23 = -2(t-3)^2

Divide both sides by -2

[tex]\frac{-23}{-2} = (t-3)^2[/tex]

Take square root on both sides

[tex]+-\sqrt{\frac{23}{2}}= t-3[/tex]

Add 3 on both sides

[tex]+-\sqrt{\frac{23}{2}}+3= t[/tex]

We will get two value for t

t=-0.39  and t= 6.39

So option C is not correct

Given h(t) is a quadratic function not exponential

To find initial height we plug in 0 for x and find out h(0)

h(0) = -2 (0-3)^2 +23 = -2(-3)^2 + 23= -18+ 23= 5

The volleyball was served from a height of 5 ft
