Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  a = 20 because the rate of change is -3

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for the function to be linear, sequential values of x must match values of y that have the same first differences. Here, 23-26 = -3, so we must have a-23 = -3. That is to say, the value of "a" must be 20.

The "rate of change" is the ratio of the differences in y to the differences in x. Here, that is -3/1 = -3. The appropriate choice is ...

  a = 20 because the rate of change is -3

You enjoy reading in your free time and keep every book you have ever read. When you were five, you read 2 books and every year after you tripled the number of books you read. How many books did you have in your bookcase when you were 11 years old?

Answers

The answer is seven hundred and twenty eight . There you go

The total number of books that we had in out bookcase when we were 11 years old was 2,187 books.

What is  a geometric sequence and how to find its nth terms?

Suppose the initial term of a geometric sequence is [tex]a[/tex]

and the term by which we multiply the previous term to get the next term is [tex]r[/tex]

Then the sequence would look like

[tex]a, ar, ar^2, ar^3, \cdots[/tex]

(till the terms to which it is defined)

Thus, the nth term of such sequence would be

[tex]T_n = ar^{n-1}[/tex] (you can easily predict this formula, as for nth term, the multiple r would've multiplied with initial terms n-1 times).

What is the sum of terms of a geometric sequence?

Lets suppose its initial term is  [tex]a[/tex] , multiplication factor is  [tex]r[/tex]

and let it has total n terms, then, its sum is given as:

[tex]S_n = \dfrac{a(r^n-1)}{r-1}[/tex]

(sum till nth term)

For this case the initial number of books (2) is multiplied by 3 each year.

So we got:

a = 2,

r = 3

Since a = 2 was for age 5, and  if we take age 5 at 1st position, then age 11 is at the 7th position.

The number of books we read at each age is a geometric sequence with initial term 2 and multiplication factor 3.

The sum of its term(which would make it geometric series) will give the total number of books we will have.

Since age 11 is at 7th position, so n = 7

Thus, the total number of books we had in the bookcase when we were 11 years old is:

[tex]S_n = \dfrac{a(r^n-1)}{r-1}\\\\S_7 = \dfrac{2((3)^7-1)}{3-1} = 2187[/tex]

We could've derived it without formula as:

Age 5: 2 booksAge 6: [tex]2 \times 3[/tex] booksAge 7: [tex]2 \times 3^2[/tex] booksAge 8: [tex]2 \times 3^3[/tex] booksAge 9: [tex]2 \times 3^4[/tex] booksAge 10: [tex]2 \times 3^5[/tex] booksAge 11: [tex]2 \times 3^6[/tex] books

Their sum is 2187.

Thus, the number of books that we had in out bookcase when we were 11 years old was 2187 books.

Answer:

loose sweets

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the price of the pre-packed and loose candy per gram, since they specified that you need to calculate the price per gram.

A better value would mean that the price is lower per gram.

pre-packed candies

120g ----- £1.49

1 ----- 1.49 ÷120= £0.0124 (3 s.f.)

loose sweets

100g ----- £0.89

1g ----- £0.89 ÷100= £0.0089

since £0.0089 < £0.0124, the loose sweets cost lesser per gram and thus is a better value.

~ Loose sweets

~ 1.49 / 120 = £0.0124

~ 89p /100 = £0.0089

£0.0089 is less than £0.0124

A triangle on a coordinate plane is translated according to the rule T-8,4(x, y). Which is another way to write this rule?
A (x,y) - (x + 4, y - 8)
B (x,y) - (x - 4, y - 8)
C (x, y) - (x - 8, y + 4)
D (x,y) - (x + 8, y - 4)

Answers

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

(x, y) → (x – 8, y + 4)

A triangle on a coordinate plane translated according to the rule [tex]T_{-8,4}(x,y)[/tex]can also be written as [tex](x,y)[/tex] → [tex](x-8,y+4)[/tex]  according to the translation rule.

What is translation rule ?

According to translation rule [tex]T_{a,b}(x,y)[/tex] tells that translation of a point (x,y)

by (a,b) is given by [tex](x,y)[/tex]→[tex](x+a,y+b)[/tex].

How to use translation rule to find the answer?

Given that [tex]T_{-8,4}(x,y)[/tex], a=-8 and b=4

Putting in the values given in the question to the translation rule we get

[tex](x,y)[/tex]→[tex](x+(-8),y+(4))[/tex]

[tex](x,y)[/tex]→[tex](x-8,y+4)[/tex]

Hence we get triangle on a coordinate plane translated according to the rule [tex]T_{-8,4}(x,y)[/tex]can also be written as [tex](x,y)[/tex] → [tex](x-8,y+4)[/tex]. Answer C is correct.

Find the measure of arc DF (with an explanation of how to solve please!)

Answers

Answer:

mDF = 90°

(Assuming arc mCE is 5x + 10)

Step-by-step explanation:

When we have two chords crossing in a circle, there is a property where the angle in the cross point is equal half the sum of the corresponding arcs.

So in this case, we have:

70° = (mCE + mDF)/2

Assuming mCE is 5x + 10, we have:

70 = (5x + 10 + 11x + 2)/2

70 = (16x + 12)/2

70 = 8x + 6

8x = 64

x = 8

So the arc mDF is:

mDF = 11x + 2 = 11 * 8 + 2 = 90°

The measure of arc DF should be 90 degrees.

Calculation of the measure of arc DF:

Here we assume arc mCE should be 5x + 10

Since mDF = 90°

Also we know that at the time when two chords should be crossing in a circle so the angle in the cross point should be equivalent to the half the sum of the arcs

So base don this.

[tex]70 = (mCE + mDF)\div 2\\\\70 = (5x + 10 + 11x + 2)\div 2\\\\70 = (16x + 12)\div 2[/tex]

70 = 8x + 6

8x = 64

x = 8

Now the arc mDF is:

mDF = 11x + 2

= 11  (8) + 2

= 90°

Hence, The measure of arc DF should be 90 degrees.

Answers

Answer:

A) Suppose we have an onedimensional situation.

in the 0 of our x-axis, we have a fruit tree, and we want to rest at a distance no bigger than 6 ft of the tree, then all the possible positions of our resting place are:

x ∈(-6ft, 6ft)

we can write this as: IxI < 6ft

b) now we think the opposite situation, we want to rest at least 6ft away from the tree, then we have that:

x ∉  [-6ft, 6ft].

or IxI > 6ft.

So you can see that the difference in those two cases is if we want to be "inside a given range" (for the first case) or "outside a given range" (for the second case).

A. Domain : (-∞, ∞)

B. Function is increasing in the interval (-2, 0) and (2, ∞)

   Decreasing in the interval of (-∞, -2) and (0, 2).

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Given function is, y = |2x - 1|

This function is the transformed form of the parent function, y = |x|

Domain of the parent function is { x | x is a set of real numbers}

Therefore, domain of the transformed function will be the same as the domain of the parent function.

Domain of the function = {x | x is a real number}

B. Given function is f(x) = [tex](x^2-4) ^{\frac{2}{3} }[/tex]

Domain of the function : (-∞, ∞)

Critical points of the function are,

⇒ x = 0, ±2

Now we find the three intervals where we have to check the function to be increasing or decreasing.

(-∞ -2), (-2, 0), (0, 2), (2, ∞)

Derivative of the function f(x),

f'(x) = [tex]\frac{4x}{3(x^2-4)^{\frac{1}{3} } }[/tex]

Here, f'(x) < 0 for (-∞, -2)

f'(x) > 0 for (-2, 0)

f'(x) < 0 for (0, 2)

f'(x) > 0 for (2, ∞)

Therefore, given function is increasing in the interval (-2, 0) and (2, ∞)

And it's decreasing in the interval of (-∞, -2), and (0, 2).

Answers

Answer:

$43,200

Step-by-step explanation:

25% is 1/4 of the total dollar value, to find the answer we need to multiply 10,800 by 4 (it is 1/4, and the answer will be equivalent to the 4/4)

10,800 * 4 = 43,200

The total dollar value of the art that he sells is 43200 dollars.

What is percentage ?

Percentage is the value per hundredth.We can also convert percentages into decimals by dividing he percentage value by 100.

According to the given question Pierre, an art dealer, earns 25% commission of the dollar value of the art pieces that he sells at the Bizzell Gallery. Pierre earns $10,800.

∴ 25% of the total value is 10800 dollars.

Assuming total value to be x dollars.

So, (25/100)x = 10800

(1/4)x = 10800

x = 10800 × 4

Honey it c !!!!………!l║.by-step explanation:

The explicit formula for the given "geometric-sequence" is aₙ = 4 × 2ⁿ⁻¹, and the eight term is 512, Option(c) is correct.

To find the explicit formula for a geometric-sequence, we need to find the common ratio between any two consecutive terms.

In this sequence, we can see that each term is obtained by multiplying the previous term by 2. So, the "common-ratio" is 2.

We also know the "first-term" is 4, so we use the formula for the nth term of a geometric sequence which is : aₙ = a₁ × rⁿ⁻¹,

Substituting the values,

We get,

⇒ a₈ = 4 × 2⁽⁸⁻¹⁾

⇒ a₈ = 4 × 2⁷

⇒ a₈ = 512,

Therefore, the correct answer is (c) aₙ = 4 × 2ⁿ⁻¹; 512.
