Find the recursive formula -80, 20, -5

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] [tex]a_{n-1}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The recursive formula lets us find a term in the sequence by multiplying the previous term by the common ratio r

Here r = [tex]\frac{20}{-80}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-5}{20}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Then recursive formula is

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] [tex]a_{n-1}[/tex]

Fragrant Fields Greenhouse sells rose bushes for $19.90 each. Last weekend, they made $477.60 on rose bushes. How many rose bushes did they sell?

Answers

Answer:

24 brushes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

cost per brush= $19.90

Amount made =$477.60

hence the number of brushes sold is given as

Number of brushes= 477.60/19.90

Number of brushes= 477.60/19.90

Number of brushes= 24 brushes

The circumference of a circle is 16Pi ft.

The radius is ____ ft.

Answers

Answer:

radius is 8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

circumference formula is 2pi r

so if the circumference is 16 pi, we divide it by 2 to get 8 pi and divide it by pi to get 8.

Answer:

8  ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference is given by

C = 2 * pi *r

16 pi = 2 * pi *r

Divide each side by 2 pi

16 pi / 2 pi = 2 pi r / 2 pi

8 = r

it is given 5 and h + 1 are the roots of the quadratic equation x^2 + (k - 1)x-5 = 0, where h and k are constants. Find the values of h and k.​

Answers

Answer:

The values of h = -2 and 4

The value of k = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Putting x=5 in the given equation,

x²+(k-1)x-5=0

or, 5²+(k-1)*5-5=0

or, 25+5k-5-5=0

or, 15+5k=0

or, 5k=-15

or, k=-3

putting the value of k and the other root (h+1) in the given equation,

(h+1)²+(-3-1)(h+1)-5=0

if you solve this, you'll get h = -2 and h = 4.

Kaden had $17 at first

Step-by-step explanation:

Ben = x

Kaden = x - 10

x + 4

x - 10 + 4 = x -6

x - 6 = [tex]\frac{7}{9}[/tex] x

9(x - 6) = 7x

9x - 54 = 7x

2x = 54

x = 27

x - 10 = 27 - 10 = 17

Answer:

Kaden had $31

Ben had $41

Step-by-step explanation:

k = b - 10

k + 4 = (7/9)(b+ 4)

Substitute for k = b - 10

(b - 10) + 4 = (7/9)(b+ 4)

b - 6 = (7/9)(b+ 4)

multiply by 9 to clear the fraction

9b - 54 = 7(b + 4)

Distribute

9b - 54 = 7b + 28

subtract 7b from both sides

2b - 54 = 28

Add 54 to both sides

2b = 82

Divide both sides by 2

b = 41

k = b - 10

k = 31

Saira is going to ride her bike to her friend's house that is 2.3 miles away. Then she is going to ride her bike another 3.4 miles to Starbucks before heading home, which is another 3.8 miles. She noticed on the map that her route is in the shape of a triangle. How far will Abby ride her bike altogether?

Answers

Answer:

9.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Since her route is in the shape of a triangle, total distance travelled can be determined by calculating the perimeter of a triangle.

A triangle is a three-sided polygon with three edges and three vertices. the sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees

The perimeter of a triangle = sum of the side lengths

The total distance travelled can be determined by adding the miles she rode

2.3 + 3.4 + 3.8 = 9.5 miles

The vertex of this parabola is at (-2,-3). When the y-value is -2, the x-value is -5. What is the coefficient of the squared term in the parabola's equation? 5 re (-2, -3)​

Answers

Answer:

The coefficient of the squared term of the equation is 1/9.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the vertex of the parabola is at (-2, -3). We also know that when the y-value is -2, the x-value is -5. Using this information we want to find the cofficient of the squared term in the parabola's equation.

Since we are given the vertex, we can use the vertex form:

[tex]\displaystyle y=a(x-h)^2+k[/tex]

Where a is the leading coefficient and (h, k) is the vertex.

Since the vertex is (-2, -3), h = -2 and k = -3:

[tex]\displaystyle y=a(x-(-2))^2+(-3)[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]y=a(x+2)^2-3[/tex]

We are also given that y = -2 when x = -5. Substitute:

[tex](-2)=a(-5+2)^2-3[/tex]

Solve for a. Simplify:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} -2&=a(-3)^2-3\\ 1&=9a \\a&=\frac{1}{9}\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, our full vertex equation is:

[tex]\displaystyle y=\frac{1}{9}(x+2)^2-3[/tex]

We can expand:

[tex]\displaystyle y=\frac{1}{9}(x^2+4x+4)-3[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]\displaystyle y=\frac{1}{9}x^2+\frac{4}{9}x-\frac{23}{9}[/tex]

The coefficient of the squared term of the equation is 1/9.

Answers

Answer:

200π cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Applying,

TSA = πrl+πr²

TSA = π(r²+rl)............. Equation 1

Where TSA = Total surface area, r = radius of the base, l = slight height of the cone

To get l we apply pythagoras theorem

From the diagram,

l² = 15²+8²

l² = 225+64

l² = 289

l = √289

l = 17 cm

Given: r = 8 cm

Substitute these values into equation 1

TSA = π(8²+17×8)

TSA = π(64+136)

TSA = π(200)

TSA = 200π cm²

Answer:

15. Area of parallelogram = bh

   You can also use the rectangle property here.

    a = l*b

    l = 9

    b = 6

    a = 9*6 = 54 m^2

    Though I would prefer the first one better.

16. Area of triangle = 1/2*bh

    b = 17m

    h = 3

    a = 17*3/2 = 51/2 = 25.5m^2

18. Area of a trapezium = a+b/2*h (a and b are two parallel sides and h the            height)

a = 15

b = 7

h = 15

a = 15+7/2*15 = 22/2*15 = 11*15 = 165m^2

19. Area of triangle = 1/2*bh

    b = 24

    h = 7

    a = 24*7/2 = 168/2 = 84

Answers

Answer: 12.48

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\sqrt156[/tex]=12.48

The base of the house is 12.48 foot far from the foot of the ladder.

What is the Pythagoras theorem?

The Pythagoras theorem states that the square of the longest side must be equal to the sum of the square of the other two sides in a right-angle triangle.

|AC|^2 = |AB|^2 + |BC|^2    

It is given that A 40-foot ladder reaches 38 feet up the side of a house.

We need to find that How far from the base of the house is the foot of the ladder.

Using Pythagoras theorem, we get;

[tex]38^2 + b^2 =40^2\\\\1444 + b^2 = 1600\\ \\b^2 = 1600 - 1444 \\\\b^2= 156\\\\b = 12.48[/tex]

Therefore, the base of the house is 12.48 foot far from the foot of the ladder.
