a. Model this scenario with an arithmetic sequence in explicit form. (2)

b. Rewrite the explicit form of the sequence using function notation. (2)

c. How tall will the tree be in 15 years? (1)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(a) An  = 2n +8

(b) F(n) = 10 + (n-1)2

(c) 38ft tall

Step-by-step explanation:

The tree is currently 10 feet long and grown 2 feet per year.

The arithmetic sequence is

10 , 12, 14 , 16 , 18 ..............

a( initial value) = 10 , d (common difference) = 2

Explicit forms

(a) An = a +(n-1)d

     An = 10 + (n-1)2

            = 10 + 2n -2

           An  = 2n +8

(b) F(n) = 10 + (n-1)2

(c) Height of the tree after 15 years

       F(15) = 10 + (15-1)2

                 = 10 + 28

                  = 38ft

So the tree will be 38ft tall after 15 years.

5) Diseñar un sistema de ecuaciones lineales y resolverlo a través del método de Gaussiana, que permita resolver el siguiente problema: -Un ingeniero realiza las siguientes observaciones sobre las ventas de impresoras en una tienda: Hay impresoras Epson, Hp y Cannon. El número de impresoras Epson y Hp es cinco veces el número de las Cannon. Además, el número de impresoras Epson es el triple que el de la Cannon y el total de impresoras Cannon y Hp asciende a 12.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]X=12[/tex]

[tex]Y=8[/tex]

[tex]Z=4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Comencemos definiendo las variables ⇒

[tex]X:[/tex] '' Número de impresoras Epson ''

[tex]Y:[/tex] '' Número de impresoras Hp ''

[tex]Z:[/tex] '' Número de impresoras Cannon ''

Ahora , dado que tenemos las variables definidas podemos escribir el sistema de ecuaciones lineales

''El número de impresoras Epson y Hp es cinco veces el número de las Cannon''

Para esa oración escribimos la siguiente ecuación :

[tex]X+Y=5Z[/tex] (I) que se puede reescribir como

[tex]X+Y-5Z=0[/tex] (II)

''El número de impresoras Epson es el triple que el de las Cannon''

Para esa oración escribimos la siguiente ecuación :

[tex]X=3Z[/tex] (III) que se puede reescribir como

[tex]X-3Z=0[/tex] (IV)

''El total de impresoras Cannon y Hp asciende a 12''

Para ésta última frase escribimos la última ecuación :

[tex]Y+Z=12[/tex] (V)

Con (II), (IV) y (V) armamos el sistema de ecuaciones lineales :

[tex]X+Y-5Z=0\\X-3Z=0\\Y+Z=12[/tex]

Lo resolvemos a través del método de Gauss insertando el sistema en una matriz y realizando operaciones de fila entre las respectivas filas de la matriz :

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccxc}1&1&-5&0\\1&0&-3&0\\0&1&1&12\end{array}\right][/tex]

Realizando operaciones entre filas se lleva a la siguiente matriz equivalente :

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&1&-5&0\\0&-1&2&0\\0&0&3&12\end{array}\right][/tex]    En esta matriz el sistema de ecuaciones asociado es

[tex]X+Y-5Z=0\\-Y+2Z=0\\3Z=12[/tex]

De aquí encontramos que [tex]Z=4[/tex] , [tex]Y=8[/tex] y [tex]X=12[/tex]  (encontramos primero el valor de [tex]Z[/tex] en la última ecuación, de allí reemplazamos en la segunda ecuación para hallar el valor de [tex]Y[/tex]. Finalmente el valor de [tex]X[/tex] se calcula con la primera ecuación)

La solución a éste sistema de ecuaciones es

[tex]X=12[/tex]

[tex]Y=8[/tex]

[tex]Z=4[/tex]

Es recomendable reemplazar éstos valores en el sistema original para verificarlos.

Solve x+4/4 = x/x-2

Answers

Answer:

After solving the equation [tex]\frac{x+4}{4}=\frac{x}{x-2}[/tex] we get x=-2 and x= 4 i.e {-2,4}.

Option B is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve [tex]\frac{x+4}{4}=\frac{x}{x-2}[/tex]

Solving:

[tex]\frac{x+4}{4}=\frac{x}{x-2}[/tex]

Cross multiply

[tex](x-2)(x+4)=x*4[/tex]

Multiplying:

[tex]x(x+4)-2(x+4)=4x\\x^2+4x-2x-8=4x\\x^2+2x-8-4x=0\\x^2-2x-8=0[/tex]

Now, we have got quadratic equation [tex]x^2-2x-8=0[/tex]

Solving this quadratic equation using quadratic formula

[tex]x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\[/tex]

We have a=1, b=-2 and c=-8 Putting values

[tex]x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\x=\frac{-(-2)\pm\sqrt{(-2)^2-4(1)(-8)}}{2(1)}\\x=\frac{2\pm\sqrt{4+32}}{2}\\x=\frac{2\pm\sqrt{36}}{2}\\x=\frac{2\pm6}{2}\\x=\frac{2+6}{2} \ or \ x=\frac{2-6}{2}\\x=\frac{8}{2} \ or \ x=\frac{-4}{2}\\x=4 \ or \ x=-2[/tex]

So,after solving the equation [tex]\frac{x+4}{4}=\frac{x}{x-2}[/tex] we get x=-2 and x= 4 i.e {-2,4}.

Option B is correct.

What is the value of x?

Answers

Answer:

x = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

these are vertical angles meaning they are congruent so

[2(x+10)] = (3x-30) then use distributive property

(2x+20) = (3x-30) subtract 2x from both sides

20 = x - 30 add 30 to both sides

x = 50

Answer:

x = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 2(x+10) = (3x-30) because it is on opposite sides of an "x".

We just set them equal to each other and solve for x!

2(x+10) = 3x - 30

2x + 20 = 3x - 30

20 = x - 30

50 = x

Solve the equation -2/3d - 1/4d = -22 for d.

Answers

Answer:

d=24

Step-by-step explanation:

create a common denominator of 12

[tex]\frac{-2}{3}[/tex]d-[tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]d=[tex]\frac{-22}{1}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{-2}{3}[/tex]*4     [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]*3     [tex]\frac{-22}{1}[/tex]*12

[tex]\frac{-8}{12}[/tex]d   - [tex]\frac{3}{12}[/tex]d   =    [tex]\frac{-264}{12}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{-11}{12}[/tex]d=[tex]\frac{-264}{12}[/tex]

multiple each side by reciprocal ([tex]\frac{12}{-11}[/tex]) and simplify

d=24

The value of d from the given equation is 24.

The given equation is [tex]-\frac{2}{3}d - \frac{1}{4}d=-22[/tex].

We need to solve the given equation for d.

What is an equation?

In mathematics, an equation is a formula that expresses the equality of two expressions, by connecting them with the equals sign =.

The given equation can be solved for d as follows:

Take LCM of denominators

LCM of denominators 3 and 4 is 12

Now equate denominators to LCM, that is

[tex]d(-\frac{2}{3} - \frac{1}{4})=-22[/tex]

⇒ [tex]d(-\frac{8}{12} - \frac{3}{12})=-22[/tex]

⇒ [tex]d(\frac{-8-3}{12} )=-22[/tex]

⇒ [tex]d(\frac{-11}{12} )=-22[/tex]

⇒ d=24

Therefore, the value of d from the given equation is 24.

4 friends shot free throws for a charity event. Adam scored 8 more points than Cheryl. Laura scored twice as many points as Adam. Tom scored 10 points less than Laura. Together the four friends scored a total of 66 points.

Answers

Answer:

c = 6

a = 14

l = 28

t = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Free throws are usually worth one point each. We can assign variables and use equations to link information between Adam, Cheryl, Laura, and Tom. Then, we can just substitute in our information and solve.

"Adam scored 8 more points than Cheryl"

a = c + 8

"Laura scored twice as many points as Adam"

l = 2a

"Tom scored 10 points less than Laura"

t = l - 10

"Together the four friends scored a total of 66 points"

a + c + l + t = 66

Now we substitute in our variables and solve from there (see attached image)

c = 6

a = 14

l = 28

t = 18

Answers

Given:

Total debt ratio (total debt to total assets) = 0.365

Total debt = $500,000

To find:

The total assets.

Solution:

We know that,

[tex]\text{Total debt ratio}=\dfrac{\text{Total debt}}{\text{Total assets}}[/tex]

On substituting the given values, we get

[tex]0.365=\dfrac{500,000}{\text{Total assets}}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Total assets}=\dfrac{500,000}{0.365}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Total assets}=1369863.0137[/tex]

Therefore, the value of total assets is $1369863.0137.

5y=15/2

Step 3: Divide both sides by 5.

5y/5

y=3/2

The solution of the given equation is y = 3/2.

What is the equation?

The equation is defined as mathematical statements that have a minimum of two terms containing variables or numbers that are equal.

What are Arithmetic operations?

Arithmetic operations can also be specified by adding, subtracting, dividing, and multiplying built-in functions.

The operator that performs the arithmetic operations is called the arithmetic operator.

* Multiplication operation: Multiplies values on either side of the operator

For example 4*2 = 8

/ Division operation: Divides left-hand operand by right-hand operand

For example 4/2 = 2

We have given the equation as

⇒ 5y - 1/2 = 7

Add 1/2 to both sides in the above equation.

⇒ 5y - 1/2 + 1/2 = 7 + 1/2

⇒ 5y = 15/2

Divide both sides by 5

⇒ y = 15/10

⇒ y = 3/2

Hence, the solution of the given equation is y = 3/2.
