Write down in terms of n, an expression for the nth term
of the following sequences:
a) 2 5 8 11 14
b) 9 11 13 15 17

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) [tex]a_n=3n-1[/tex]

b) [tex]a_n=2n+7[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

a)  From inspection, we can see that this is an arithmetic sequence as the difference between each term is the same:

14 - 11 = 3

11 - 8 = 3

8 - 5 = 3

5 - 2 = 3

(so the common difference = 3)

General equation of arithmetic sequence:  [tex]a_n=a+(n-1)d[/tex]

(where [tex]a[/tex] is the first term and [tex]d[/tex] is the common difference between terms)

Given:

[tex]a=2[/tex][tex]d=3[/tex]

[tex]\implies a_n=2+(n-1)3[/tex]

[tex]\implies a_n=2+3n-3[/tex]

[tex]\implies a_n=3n-1[/tex]

b)  From inspection, we can see that this is an arithmetic sequence as the difference between each term is the same:

17 - 15 = 2

15 - 13 = 2

13 - 11 = 2

11 - 9 = 2

(so the common difference = 2)

General equation of arithmetic sequence:  [tex]a_n=a+(n-1)d[/tex]

(where [tex]a[/tex] is the first term and [tex]d[/tex] is the common difference between terms)

Given:

[tex]a=9[/tex][tex]d=2[/tex]

[tex]\implies a_n=9+(n-1)2[/tex]

[tex]\implies a_n=9+2n-2[/tex]

[tex]\implies a_n=2n+7[/tex]

a circular pool has a circumference of 28 feet what is the radius of the pool in feet

Answers

Answer:

The formula for circumference of s circle is pi x diameter.

If the circumference is 28 we can divide it by pi to get the Diameter.

28/ pi = 8.9126768131461388030574907488608042739297 rounded to 8.91 (2dp)

The radius is half of the diameter, so this means 8.91 / 2 = 4.46 ft (rounded to 2dp)

Average rate of change = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

f(x) = x² + 7x + 10

-8 ≤ x ≤ -3 or [-8, -3] in interval notation

Average rate of change of the function can be solved using the formula:

[tex]\mathrm{Average\:rate\:of\:change} = \dfrac{ f \left( b \right) -f \left( a \right) }{ b-a }[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{Average\:rate\:of\:change} = \dfrac{ f \left( -3 \right) -f \left( -8 \right) }{ -3 - (-8) }[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{Average\:rate\:of\:change} = \dfrac{ f \left( -3 \right) -f \left( -8 \right) }{ -3 + 8 }[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{Average\:rate\:of\:change} = \dfrac{ f \left( -3 \right) -f \left( -8 \right) }{ 5 }[/tex]

Substitute x = -3 to the given function for f(-3) and x = -8 for f(-8)

[tex]\mathrm{Average\:rate\:of\:change} = \dfrac{ f \left( -3 \right) -f \left( -8 \right) }{ 5 }[/tex][tex]\mathrm{Average\:rate\:of\:change} = \dfrac{ { \left[( -3 \right) }^{ 2 } +7 \left( -3 \right) +10]- { \left[( -8 \right) }^{ 2 } +7 \left( -8 \right) +10] }{ 5 }[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{Average\:rate\:of\:change} = \dfrac{ [9-21+10]-[64-56+10] }{ 5 }[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{Average\:rate\:of\:change} = \dfrac{ [-2]-[18] }{ 5 }[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{Average\:rate\:of\:change} = \dfrac{ - 20 }{ 5 }[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{Average\:rate\:of\:change} = {-4 }[/tex]

A) 10 × 4 and 10 × 5 B) 15 × 4 and 10 × 4 C) (15 × 4) + (5 × 4) and 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 D) (10 × 4) + (5 × 4) and 15 + 15 + 15 + 15

Answers

Answer:

(D) (10 × 4) + (5 × 4) and 15 + 15 + 15 + 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

total number of boxes of doughnuts sold, T = 15 boxes

the cost of each box of doughnuts, C = $4

The total cost of the doughnuts sold = 4 x 15 =  $60

The only option that contains pair of expressions that is equal to $60 is option D.

(D) (10 × 4) + (5 × 4) and 15 + 15 + 15 + 15

(10 × 4) + (5 × 4) = 40 + 20 = $60

15 + 15 + 15 + 15 = $60

#6 find the slope in the graph MULTIPLE CHOICE

Answers

I'm assuming problem 6 is the graph on the right.

If so, then the slope is 1/2

Start at a point like (0,-1) which is the y intercept. Move up 1 and to the right 2 to arrive at (2,0) which is the x intercept.

The movement pattern "up 1, right 2" determines the slope directly

slope = rise/run = 1/2

rise = 1 = go up 1

run = 2 = go to the right 2

------------------------------

You could also pick two points from the blue line, then use the slope formula. If we picked (0,-1) and (2,0), then

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (0-(-1))/(2-0)

m = (0+1)/(2-0)

m = 1/2

The slope for this question is 1/2

A rectangle is 12 cm longer than it is wide. If its length and width are both decreased by 2 cm, its area is decreased by 108 cm². Find its original dimensions.

Answers

Let the width be "x" cm.

Then the length is "x+12" cm

And the area = x(x+12) = x^2+12x cm^2

----------------------------

Change the dimensions:

width = "x-2" cm

length = "x+10" cm

New area = (x-2)(x+10) = x^2 + 8x - 20 cm^2

------------------

Equations :

Old area - New area = 108 cm^2

x^2+12x -(x^2 + 8x - 20) = 108

4x + 20 = 108

4x = 88

x = 22 cm (original width)

x+12 = 24 cm (original length)

3x – 3

Answers

Answer:

Measure of the shortest side is 5 cm

Measure of the longest side is 12 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Perimeter of ∆ = 27 cm

Side lengths of ∆: x, 2x, and 3x - 3

Required:

Measure of the shortest side and measure of the longest side.

SOLUTION:

Sum of all sides of the ∆ = Perimeter

[tex] x + 2x + (3x - 3) = 27 [/tex]

Solve for x

[tex] x + 2x + 3x - 3 = 27 [/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex] 6x - 3 = 27 [/tex]

Add 3 to both sides

[tex] 6x = 27 + 3 [/tex]

[tex] 6x = 30 [/tex]

Divide both sides by 6

[tex] x = \frac{30}{6} [/tex]

[tex] x = 5 [/tex]

Length of each side of the ∆:

x = 5 cm

2x = 2(5) = 10 cm

3x - 3 = 3(5) - 3 = 15 - 3 = 12 cm

Measure of the shortest side is 5 cm

Measure of the longest side is 12 cm

Use the leading coefficient and degree of the polynomial function f(x) = x3 – 7x2 + 10x to determine the end behavior of its graph. Select all the correct statements. A. As x → ∞, y → ∞. B. As x → ∞, y → −∞. C. As x → −∞, y → ∞. D. As x → −∞, y → −∞. E. As x → ∞, y → 0.

Answers

Given:

The function is

[tex]f(x)=x^3-7x^2+10x[/tex]

To find:

The end behavior of its graph.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]f(x)=x^3-7x^2+10x[/tex]

Here, leading coefficient is 1 which is positive and degree of function is 3 which is odd.

For odd degree and positive leading coefficient, the end behavior is

[tex]f(x)\to \infty\text{ as }x\to \infty[/tex]

[tex]f(x)\to -\infty\text{ as }x\to -\infty[/tex]

Using this, we get

[tex]\text{As }x\to \infty, y\to \infty[/tex]

[tex]\text{As }x\to -\infty, y\to -\infty[/tex]

Therefore, the correct statements are A and D.

We want to study the end behavior of the given polynomial.

The two correct statements are A and D.

As x → ∞, y → ∞As x → −∞, y → −∞

The polynomial is:

f(x)  = x^3 - 7*x^2 + 10*x.

We can see that the degree of this polynomial is odd, this means that the behavior on the negative side is opposite to the one in the positive side.

In this case, the leading coefficient is one, so it is positive. This will mean that, for large positive values of x, f(x) will be positive.

For large (in absolute value) negative values of x, f(x) will be negative.

Then the end behavior is given by:

As x → ∞, y → ∞As x → −∞, y → −∞

So the two correct statements are A and D.
