Answer:
f(6) = 68
Step-by-step explanation:
f(6)
f(n+1)=f(n)-8
n = 5, so
f(6)=f(5)-8
and with n = 4
f(5)=f(4)-8 , so
f(4) = f(3) - 8
f(3) = f(2) - 8 = 100 - 8 = 92
f(3) = 92
Then, we can go and find the result
f(4) =[92] - 8 = 84
f(5)=[84] - 8 = 76
f(6) = [76] -8 = 68
[tex]f(n+1)=f(n)-8\\f(2)=100\\\\f(3)=100-8=92\\f(4)=92-8=84\\f(5)=84-8=76\\f(6)=76-8=68[/tex]

What is the equation of the line that passes through (7, 4) and (4, -2)?
Answer:
y=2x-10
Step-by-step explanation:
First step: Let's compute the slope. You can directly use the formula for slope given two points here but I just like to like them up and subtract vertically. Make sure you put 2nd difference on top of 1st difference (yes, like a fraction).
(7 , 4)
-(4 , -2)
=======
3 6
So the slope is 6/3 =2.
So we know our line is in the form y=2x+b.
We have to find the y-intercept now. To find b we will use a point that we know is on the line (you know two-just choose one of them) . I will plug in (4,-2) giving me this equation -2=2(4)+b
Solving: -2=8+b
So b=-10
The answer is y=2x-10

What is the equation of the line described below written in slope-intercept form? the line passing through point (0, 0) and parallel to the line whose equation is 3x + 2y - 6 = 0 y = -x
Answer:
y = -1½x + 3; Parallel Equation: y = -1½x [Direct Variation (y = mx)]
Step-by-step explanation:
Set the equation equal to 6, move -3x to the right side of the equivalence symbol to get 2y = -3x + 6, then divide all terms by 2, to isolate the variable, resulting in y = -½x + 3. Now that we have our equation, we have to the PARALLEL equation [SIMILAR RATE OF CHANGES (SLOPES)] that passes through the origin [0, 0]. To do this, we simply plug these coordinates into the Slope-Intercept Formula, y = mx + b --> 0 = -½[0] + b. It is obvious that your y-intercept IS the origin [so as your x-intercept], so your parallel equation is y = -½x.
NOTE: The parent function of y = mx, is what is known as direct variation.
What is the equation in slope intercept form of the perpendicular bisector of the given line segment?
Answer:
y = -4x - 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in point-slope form.
[tex] y - y_1 = m(x - x_1) [/tex]
is the equation of the line containing point (x1, y1) and having slope, m.
The given point of the perpendicular bisector is (-1, -2), so in this case, x1 = -1, and y1 = -2.
We need the slope of the perpendicular bisector. First we find the slope of the segment. We start at point (-5, -3). We go up 1 unit and 4 units to the right, and we are at another point on the segment. Since slope = rise/run, the slope of the segment is 1/4. The slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals, so the slope of the perpendicular bisector is the negative reciprocal of 1/4, so for the perpendicular bisector, m = -4.
Now we use the equation above and our values.
[tex] y - y_1 = m(x - x_1) [/tex]
[tex] y - (-2) = -4(x - (-1)) [/tex]
[tex] y + 2 = -4(x + 1) [/tex]
[tex] y + 2 = -4x - 4 [/tex]
[tex] y = -4x - 6 [/tex]

The booster club hires a band for a fund raiser. The club guarantees the band a fee of $1500 plus $4.50 for each ticket sold. There are 1,150 seats in the auditorium.
What is the greatest amount of money the band can earn?
a.
$5,175
c.
$6,675
b.
$6,213
d.
$5,971
Answer:
$6,675
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x -----> the number of tickets sold
y ----> the amount of money that the band earn
we know that
The linear equation that represent this problem is
y=4.50x+1,500
The greatest amount of money that the band can earn is when the number of tickets sold is equal to the maximum number of seats in the auditorium
so
For x=1,150
substitute
y=4.50(1,150)+1,500=$6,675

Intro
Equations are used to represent the relationships between variables. In [tex]y=x^2 -1[/tex], the variables are x & y and the following observations are true for the given equation:
The words that describe [tex]y=x^2 -1[/tex] are: y is 1 less than the square of xThe values of a and b are 3 and 0, respectively.Given that:
[tex]y=x^2 -1[/tex]
[tex]x^2 \to[/tex] the square of x
So, means that: the y is 1 less than the square of x
From the attached table, we have:
[tex]x = -2; y = a[/tex]
This means that:
[tex]a = (-2)^2 - 1[/tex]
[tex]a = 4 - 1[/tex]
[tex]a =3[/tex]
Also, we have:
[tex]x = b; y = -1[/tex]
This means that:
[tex]-1 = b^2 - 1[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]b^2 =1-1[/tex]
[tex]b^2 =0[/tex]
Take square roots
[tex]b = 0[/tex]
Hence, the values of a and b are 3 and 0, respectively.
The graph options are not made available. So, I will plot the graph of [tex]y=x^2 -1[/tex].

What is the solution to the system of equations? 3x + 10y = -47 5x- 7y = 40
Please and thank u
Answer:
x=1, y=-5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equations are:
[tex]3x+10y=-47\ Eqn\ 1\\and\\5x-7y=40\ Eqn\ 2[/tex]
In order to solve the equation
Multiplying Eqn 1 by 5 and eqn 2 by 3 and subtracting them
So,
Eqn 1 becomes
15x+50y=-235
Eqn 2 becomes
15x-21y=120
Subtracting 2 from a
15x+50y - (15x-21y) = -235-120
15x+50y-15x + 21y = -355
71y = -355
y = -355/71
y =-5
Putting y= -5 in eqn 1
3x+10(-5) = -47
3x -50 = -47
3x = -47+50
3x = 3
x = 3/3
x = 1
Hence the solution is:
x=1, y=-5
Answer: x=1; y=-5
Step-by-step explanation: To solve this system we can use differente methods, in this case we are going to use substitution:
first equation: 3x+10y=-47
second equation: 5x-7y=40
we are going to isolate x from the first equation:
3x=-47-10y
[tex]x=\frac{-47-10y}{3}[/tex]
now we replace it in the second equation:
[tex]5*\frac{-47-10y}{3}-7y=40[/tex]
and now we solve for y:
[tex]\frac{-235-50y}{3} -7y=40[/tex]
[tex]\frac{-235-50y-21y}{3}=40[/tex]
[tex]-235-71y=40*3[/tex]
[tex]-235-71y=120[/tex]
[tex]-71y=120+235[/tex]
[tex]y=-355/71[/tex]
y=-5
now we replace the value of y in the first equation and solve for x:
[tex]x=\frac{-47-10y}{3}[/tex]
[tex]x=\frac{-47-10(-5)}{3}[/tex]
[tex]x=\frac{-47+50}{3}[/tex]
[tex]x=\frac{3}{3}[/tex]

Answer:
One of the numbers is 5
The other number is 17
Step-by-step explanation:
You could do this just by guessing numbers. But I think you are intended to do it with algebra.
x + y = 22
y = 2*x + 7 Substitute the y value in this equation into the first equation
x + 2x + 7 = 22 Combine the xs on the left.
3x + 7 = 22 Subtract 7 from both sides.
3x+7-7=22- 7 Combine
3x = 15 Divide by 3
3x/3 = 15/3 Combine
x = 5
x + y = 22 Substitute 5 for x
5 + y = 22 Subtract 5 from both sides.
5-5+y = 22-5

a solution consisting of 52 mg of dopamine in 26 mL of solution at a rate of 10 mL/hr what is the flow rate in mg of dopamine per hour
Answer:
20 mg / hour
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step is to find the mg/mL of dopamine.
If there are 52 mg / 26 mL, then there are 2 mg / 1 mL (just reduce the fraction).
If we are losing 10 mL / 1 hour, and there are 2 mg / mL, then the flow rate of dopamine mg / hour is 20.
You can also do this using dimensional analysis.
[tex]\frac{52 mg}{26 mL} (\frac{10 mL}{1 hour})[/tex]
Just cross out the units that cancel in the numerator and denominator (mL in this case), and you're left with mg / hour. Then multiply the numerators and divide by the denominators. You get the same answer.

Step-by-step explanation:
1. |x-3|=7 and x-3=7
Absoulte rules.
x-3=-7 and x-3=7
Add 3 both sides.
x-3+3=-7+3
Simplify.
-7+3=-4

Add by 3 both sides.
|x|-3+3=7+3
Simplify.
7+3=10

X=-10 and X=10 is the correct answer.
______________________________
The two equations |x-3|=7 and |x|-3=7, are solved differently. For |x-3|=7, the possible solutions are x=10 and x=-4. For |x|-3=7, the possible solutions are x=10 and x=-10.
Explanation:The two equations you're looking at are: |x-3|=7 and |x|-3=7. They look very similar but they're solved differently because absolute value symbols affect all values inside them together.
For the first equation, |x-3|=7, we solve this by considering the two situations, x-3 = 7 and x-3 = -7. Solve each of these two equations separately, so you get x = 10 and x = -4.
For the second equation, |x|-3=7, firstly, we need to eliminate '-3' from the right-hand side by adding 3 to both sides, leading to |x| = 10. This is then broken down into the two possible situations as before: x = 10 and x = -10.

To calculate Taylor's average rate during her trip, we can use the formula for average speed:
Calculate the total distance traveled: 62 miles - 32 miles = 30 miles.
Calculate the total time taken: 6 hours - 3 hours = 3 hours.
Divide the total distance by the total time to find the average speed: 30 miles / 3 hours = 10 miles per hour.
A pilot flew a 400-mile flight in 2.5 hours flying into the wind. Flying the same rate and with the same wind speed, the return trip took only 2 hours, with a tailwind.
What was the speed of the wind?
miles per hour
Answer:
20 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
traveling against the wind was 160mph (400/2.5)
traveling with the wind was 200mph (400/2)
going against the wind is going in the negative direction of the wind speed, and going with the wind is going in a positive direction of the wind speed, therefore the wind speed is |direction1-direction2|/2, which would be |200-160|/2 = |40|/2 = 20mph
(180mph is neutral speed with no wind, with wind affecting this neutral speed ±20mph)
Final answer:
To determine the wind speed, we used the distances and times provided for the flights against and with the wind to set up equations for the airplane's effective speeds. Solving these equations, we found that the wind speed is 20 miles per hour.
Explanation:
To solve for the wind speed, we first need to establish the speed of the airplane without the influence of the wind. Let's denote the speed of the airplane in still air as A, and the speed of the wind as W. When the plane is flying into the wind, its effective speed is A - W, and while flying with the tailwind, its effective speed is A + W.
From the first part of the trip, we have:Distance = 400 milesTime = 2.5 hoursSpeed against the wind = (A - W) = 400 / 2.5 = 160 mph
From the return trip, we have:Distance = 400 milesTime = 2 hoursSpeed with the wind = (A + W) = 400 / 2 = 200 mph
We now have two equations based on the effective speeds:
A - W = 160A + W = 200By adding these two equations, we eliminate W:
2A = 360 mphThus, the speed of the airplane in still air (A) is 180 mph. We can now find the wind speed by subtracting this value from the effective speed with the wind:
A + W = 200 mph180 + W = 200 mphW = 200 - 180W = 20 mphTherefore, the speed of the wind is 20 miles per hour.
