Why is it important to know "first term" and "common ratio" when dealing with geometric sequences?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Each term of a geometric sequence increases or decreases by a constant factor called the common ratio. The sequence below is an example of a geometric sequence because each term increases by a constant factor of 6. Multiplying any term of the sequence by the common ratio 6 generates the subsequent term.

What are the asymptote and the y-intercept of the function shown in the graph?

f(x) = 3(0.2)^x + 2

A. asymptote: y = -2
y-intercept: (0,5)

B. asymptote: y = 2
y-intercept: (0,5)

C. asymptote: y = 2
y-intercept: (0,4)

D. asymptote: y = -2
y-intercept: (0,3)

Answers

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The function reaches the y-axis at the point (0,5).

The asymptote is the line that the function follows but never quite reaches. In this case, the function follows the path of y = 2. However, it never exactly fits the line.

The y-intercept is (0,5) and the asymptote is y = 2. The answer, then, is B.

Good luck ^^

The equation of the asymptote is y = 2 and the coordinate of the y-intercept will be (0, 5). Then the correct option is B.

What is asymptote?

An asymptote is a line that constantly reaches a given curve, but does not touch at any infinite distance.

The equation of the function is given below.

[tex]\rm f(x) = 3(0.2)^x + 2[/tex]

The asymptote of the function is given as by substituting x as infinity, then the equation of the asymptote will be

[tex]\rm y = 3(0.2)^{\infty} + 2\\\\y = 2[/tex]

Then the y-intercept of the function will be given by substituting y = 0, then the y-intercept will be

y = 3(0.2)⁰ + 2

y = 3 + 2

y = 5

The coordinate of the y-intercept will be (0, 5).

Then the correct option is B.

Tommy is helping his mom at the grocery store. He notices that 5 pounds of potatoes cost $2.25. How much would 7 pounds of potatoes cost?

A. $3.45

B. $0.45

C. $3.15

D. $1.61

Answers

Answer:

Cost of 7 pound potato = $3.15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cost of 5 pound potato = $2.25

Find:

Cost of 7 pound potato

Computation:

Cost of 1 pound potato = 2.25 / 5

Cost of 1 pound potato = $0.45

Cost of 7 pound potato = 7 x Cost of 1 pound potato

Cost of 7 pound potato = 7 x 0.45

Cost of 7 pound potato = $3.15

Answer:

The answer was already given(50°), but I can explain it further.

Step-by-step explanation:

These are supplementary angles, two angles that, together, make 180 degrees.

We know the angle of one of them, 130°, and in order to find the other one, x, we have to subtract what the entire this equals, 180°:

180° - 130° = x

50° = x

x = 50°

Find the solution for this system of equations.

12x + 15y = 34
-6x + 5y = 3

Answers

Answer:

x=5/6 and y=8/5

(5/6 , 8/5)

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the elimination method! The point of this method is to add or subtract one equation from the other, multiplying them by constants if necessary, to cancel out one variable so you can solve for the other. Then, you can plug the value you got for your solution into either equation to solve for the other. I'll demonstrate.

Look at the two equations and the coefficients of both variables. You have 12x and -6x -- 6*2=12, so this is perfect. (You could also eliminate the y because 5*3=15, but I'll show you by eliminating the x instead.)

Here's what that looks like:

(-6x+1y=3)2

-12x+10y=6

So we just multiplied the second equation by 2 on both sides. Let's see how that helps us.

12x+15y=34

-12x+10y=6

If we add the two equations now, x will be canceled out and we can solve for y.

   12x+15y=34

+(-12x+10y=6)

___________

     0x+25y=40

           25y=40

0x=0, so we can get rid of the x. Now, we need to solve for y.

25y=40

y=40/25

You probably know how to simplify fractions, so divide both the numerator and the denominator by 5 to get y=8/5.

Now you can use this value in either equation and solve for x. I'll use the first. (This is called substitution.)

12x+15(8/5)=34

12x+3(8)=34 <-- What I did here is cancel out the 5 in the denominator with 15 to leave 3, because 5*3=15.

12x+24=34

12x=10

x=10/12

x=5/6 (Divide the numerator and denominator by 2.)

You can write your answer as a point, too. (5/6 , 8/5)
