The first five terms of an arithmetic sequence are shown below:
20, 17, 14, 11, 8, . . .
Let n represent the term number and f(n) the term in the sequence.
Choose a function that represents the sequence.

The answer to this question is f(n) = -3 + 23

Now my question is, how do you find the solution? I was taught the explicit formula is f(n) = m(n) + b, but no matter how many times I've tried to plug in the numbers I cannot seem to get the right answer. Please help me and do show the entire process and the steps.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The function represents the sequence is - 3 n + 23.

Step-by-step explanation:

20. 17, 14, 11, 8,......

Here, the first term is

a = 20

Common difference, d = -3

Let the nth term is Tn.

Tn = a + (n -1) d

Tn = 20 + (n -1) x (-3)

Tn = 20 - 3 n + 3

Tn = 23 - 3 n = - 3 n + 23

So, the function represents the sequence is - 3 n + 23.

Answer 2

Answer:

Y'all know what it is already, but I want points, so: f(n) = -3n + 23

Find functions f(x) and g(x) so the given function can be expressed as
h(x) = f(g(x)).
(Use non-identity functions for
f(x) and g(x).)
h(x) = 5/x-4

Answers

Answer:

[tex]f(x) = \frac{5}{x}[/tex]

[tex]g(x) = x - 4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Composite function:

[tex]h(x) = f(g(x)) = (f \circ g)(x)[/tex]

h(x) = 5/x-4

We have x on the denominator and not the numerator, so the outer function is given by:

[tex]f(x) = \frac{5}{x}[/tex]

The denominator is x - 4, so this is the inner function, so:

[tex]g(x) = x - 4[/tex]

Answer:

-4 ≤ x ≤ -2, 4 ≤ x ≤ 7

Step-by-step explanation:

A function shows the relationship between two or more variables. A function is said to be constant over an interval if its output value is same for every input value within that interval.

As seen in the question, the x variable is the input while the y variable is the output. The function is constant from x = -4 to x = -2. Also, the function is constant within the interval from x = 4 to x = 7. Hence, the interval is:

-4 ≤ x ≤ -2, 4 ≤ x ≤ 7

Answer: The median value of data set B is -5.5, which is less than the median value of 3.1 in dataset A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Order the dataset from least to greatest:

-38 → -13 → -9 → -2 → 14 → 28

Then find the values that lies in the middle:

-38 → -13 → -9 → -2 → 14 → 28

Since there are 2 values, find the average of those 2 values:

[tex]\frac{-9+(-2)}{2} =\frac{-11}{2} =-5.5[/tex]

The median value = -5.5.

The median value of data set B is -5.5, which is less than the median value of  3.1 in dataset A.

If a projectile is fired with an initial speed of vo ft/s at an angle α above the horizontal, then its position after t seconds is given by the parametric equations x=(v0cos(α))t andy=(v0sin(α))t−16t2
(where x and y are measured in feet).
Suppose a gun fires a bullet into the air with an Initial speed of 2048 ft/s at an angle of 30 o to the horizontal.
(a) After how many seconds will the bullet hit the ground?
(b) How far from the gun will the bullet hit the ground? (Round your answer to one decimal place.)
(c) What is the maximum height attained by the bullet? (Round your answer to one decimal place.)

Answers

Answer:

a) The bullet hits the ground after 64 seconds.

b) The bullet hits the ground 113,511.7 feet away.

c) The maximum height attained by the bullet is of 16,384 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Equations of motion:

The equations of motion for the bullet are:

[tex]x(t) = (v_0\cos{\alpha})t[/tex]

[tex]y(t) = (v_0\sin{\alpha})t - 16t^2[/tex]

In which [tex]v_0[/tex] is the initial speed and [tex]\alpha[/tex] is the angle.

Initial speed of 2048 ft/s at an angle of 30o to the horizontal.

This means that [tex]v_0 = 2048, \alpha = 30[/tex].

So

[tex]x(t) = (v_0\cos{\alpha})t = (2048\cos{30})t = 1773.62t[/tex]

[tex]y(t) = (v_0\sin{\alpha})t - 16t^2 = (2048\sin{30})t - 16t^2 = 1024t - 16t^2[/tex]

(a) After how many seconds will the bullet hit the ground?

It hits the ground when [tex]y(t) = 0[/tex]. So

[tex]1024t - 16t^2 = 0[/tex]

[tex]16t^2 - 1024t = 0[/tex]

[tex]16t(t - 64) = 0[/tex]

16t = 0 -> t = 0 or t - 64 = 0 -> t = 64

The bullet hits the ground after 64 seconds.

(b) How far from the gun will the bullet hit the ground?

This is the horizontal distance, that is, the x value, x(64).

[tex]x(64) = 1773.62(64) = 113511.7[/tex]

The bullet hits the ground 113,511.7 feet away.

(c) What is the maximum height attained by the bullet?

This is the value of y when it's derivative is 0.

We have that:

[tex]y^{\prime}(t) = 1024 - 32t[/tex]

[tex]1024 - 32t = 0[/tex]

[tex]32t = 1024[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{1024}{32} = 32[/tex]

At this instant, the height is:

[tex]y(32) = 1024(32) - 16(32)^2 = 16384[/tex]

The maximum height attained by the bullet is of 16,384 feet.

alvin is 5 years older than elga. the sum of their age is 85. what is elga age

Answers

Answer:

40 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can let Elga's age equal [tex]x[/tex]. Alvin's age can be equal to [tex]y[/tex]. We can make several equations from the information we know. We know that Elga's age plus five equal's Alvin's age.

[tex]x+5=y[/tex]

We also know that the sum of their ages is 85.

[tex]x+y=85[/tex]

We can substitute [tex]x+5[/tex] for [tex]y[/tex] in the second equation since [tex]x+5=y[/tex], so we have the following equation:

[tex]x+(x+5)=85[/tex]

We can combine like terms to get

[tex]2x+5=85[/tex]

Subtracting 5 from both sides results in

[tex]2x=80[/tex]

After that, we can divide both sides by 2 to get

[tex]x=40[/tex]

Thus, Elga is 40 years old.

Answer:

e = 40

a=45

Step-by-step explanation:

a + e = 85

a = e+5

e + 5 + e = 85

2e = 80

e = 40

a=45

Find the least positive integer, written only by numbers 0, 1 and 2, which is divisible by 225.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  1,222,200

Step-by-step explanation:

A search using a computer program found ...

  5432 × 225 = 1,222,200

__

1000 mod 225 = 100

4 × 225 = 900

This suggests that if we have some number of thousands whose digits total 9, that we will have the number of interest. Of course, we can add 200 to some number of thousands with a digit total of 7. The smallest such digit total will be had with the number 1222 using the specified digits {0, 1, 2}. This gives rise to the result above: 1222×1000 +200 = 1,222,200. It also explains why moving the 1 to the right will also give a multiple of 225.

Where,

y = number of pink flowers

x = Red flowers

Slope = 1.73

Intercept = 0.0924

The number of pink flower that are predicted to bloom on a shrub of 40 red flowers :

Put x = 40 and calculate the value of y

y = 1.73(40) + 0.0924

y = 69.2 + 0.0924

y = 69.2924

Number of pink flowers = 69

Weatherwise magazine is published in association with the American Meteorological Society. Volume 46, Number 6 has a rating system to classify Nor'easter storms that frequently hit New England states and can cause much damage near the ocean coast. A severe storm has an average peak wave height of 16.4 feet for waves hitting the shore. Suppose that a Nor'easter is in progress at the severe storm class rating.
(A) Let us say that we want to set up a statistical test to see if the wave action (i.e., height) is dying down or getting worse. What would be the null hypothesis regarding average wave height?
a) μ < 16.4.
b) μ > 16.4.
c) μ = 16.4.
d) μ ≠ 16.4.
(B) If you wanted to test the hypothesis that the storm is getting worse, what would you use for the alternate hypothesis?
a) μ < 16.4.
b) μ = 16.4.
c) μ ≠ 16.4.
d) μ > 16.4.
(C) If you wanted to test the hypothesis that the waves are dying down, what would you use for the alternate hypothesis?
a) μ < 16.4.
b) μ ≠ 16.4.
c) μ > 16.4.
d) μ = 16.4.
(D) Suppose you do not know if the storm is getting worse or dying out. You just want to test the hypothesis that the average wave height is different (either higher or lower) from the severe storm class rating. What would you use for the alternate hypothesis?
a) μ > 16.4.
b) μ = 16.4.
c) μ ≠ 16.4.
d) μ < 16.4.
(E) For each of the tests in parts (b), (c), and (d), would the area corresponding to the P-value be on the left, on the right, or on both sides of the mean?
a) left; right; both.
b) left; both; right.
c) both; left; right.
d) right; left; both.

Answers

Answer:

a)  c) μ = 16.4.

b)  d) μ > 16.4.

c) a) μ < 16.4.

d) c) μ ≠ 16.4.

e)  d) right; left; both.

Step-by-step explanation:

Question a:

Test if it is getting worse, so at the alternative hypothesis we test if the mean is of greater than 16.4 inches, but at the null hypothesis we test if it is still of 16.4 options, so option C.

Question b:

At the alternative hypothesis we test if the mean is of greater than 16.4 inches, as said above, so the answer is given by option d.

Question c:

Dying down, so if the mean is lower than 16.4 inches, so option a.

Question d:

Don't know, so just test if it is different, which includes both lower or greater, so the correct answer is given by option c.

Question e:

Test if more -> right, so on question b) is a right tailed test.

Test if less -> left, so on question c) is a left tailed test.

Different -> both sides, so on question d) it is a two-tailed test.

Thus the correct answer is given by option d.

[tex]fog = \frac{1}{g(x)} [/tex]

[tex]fog \: = \frac{1}{ {x}^{2} + 6x } [/tex]

taking x common in denominator

for a function to exist it should not have 0 in its denominator

x = 0 and x = -6

(g) What is the maximum magnitude of transverse velocity of any particle of the string? (h) Find the transverse displacement of a particle 1.35 m to the right of the origin at time t = 0.0625 s. (i) Find the transverse velocity of a particle 1.35 m to the right of the origin at time t = 0.0625 s. The idea that Sophia is born with high genetic potential for intelligence that determines the boundaries of her intelligence, but that her environment interacts with those genes to determine wherein her intelligence falls within those bounds is known as if an angle is bisected to form two new 20 degree angles, what was the measure of the original angle? Write a program using integers user_num and x as input, and output user_num divided by x three times.Ex: If the input is:20002Then the output is:1000 500 250Note: In Python 3, integer division discards fractions. Ex: 6 // 4 is 1 (the 0.5 is discarded).LAB ACTIVITY2.29.1: LAB: Divide by x0 / 10main.pyLoad default template...12''' Type your code here. ''' Which natural law do biogeochemical cycles address?
