Answer:
A term at position n can be expressed as \[2*3^{n-1}\]
Step-by-step explanation:
The given geometric sequence is 2, 6, 18, 54, …
Starting term = 2
Second term = 6
So second term is 3 times the first term.
Similarly, Third term = 18
This is 3 times the second term, that is , 3 * 6
Fourth term is is 54.
This is 3 times the third term, that is , 3 * 18
Generalizing, a term in the sequence can be expressed as \[2*3^{n-1}\]
where n represents the position of the term in the sequence.
A student is running a 10-kilometer race. He runs 1 kilometer every 4 minutes. Select the function that describes his distance from the finish line.
f(x) = - 1 over 4x + 4
f(x) = - 1 over 10x + 4
f(x) = - 1 over 10x + 10
f(x) = - 1 over 4x + 10
Answer:
Option D is correct
[tex]y =-\frac{1}{4}x+10[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope intercept form:
The equation of line is given by:
[tex]y=mx+c[/tex] .....[1]
where, m is the rate or slope and c is the y-intercept or initial value.
As per the statement:
Here, y represents the distance in kilometer and x represents the time in minutes.
A student is running a 10-kilometer race
⇒y(0) = b = 10 km
It is also given that he runs 1 kilometer every 4 minutes.
Now, with each passing minute the student is getting closer and closer to the finish line which was 10 kilometers away when the race started. Thus, as the race progresses, the distance between the student and the finish line will decrease.
[tex]m =-\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
Substitute these in [1] we have;
[tex]y = -\frac{1}{4}x+10[/tex]
Therefore, the function that describes his distance from the finish line is, [tex]y = -\frac{1}{4}x+10[/tex]

What is the length of the altitude of the equilateral triangle below
Answer
Find out the altitude of the equilateral triangle .
To proof
By using the trignometric identity.
[tex]tan\theta = \frac{Perpendicular}{base}[/tex]
As shown in the diagram
and putting the values of the angles , base and perpendicular
[tex]tan 60^{\circ} = \frac{a}{4\sqrt{3}}[/tex]
[tex]tan 60^{\circ} = \sqrt{3}[/tex]
solving
[tex]\sqrt{3} = \frac{a}{4\sqrt{3}}[/tex]
[tex]a = \sqrt{3}\times 4 \sqrt{3}[/tex]
As
[tex]\sqrt{3}\times \sqrt{3} = 3[/tex]
put in the above
a = 4 × 3
a = 12 units
The length of the altitude of the equilateral triangle is 12 units .
Option (F) is correct .
Hence proved
Answer:
F. 12
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given an image of a triangle and we are asked to find the length of the altitude of our given triangle.
Since we know that altitude of an equilateral triangle splits it into two 30-60-90 triangle.
We will use Pythagoras theorem to solve for the altitude of our given triangle.
[tex]\text{Leg}^2+\text{Leg}^2=\text{Hypotenuse}^2[/tex]
Upon substituting our given values in above formula we will get,
[tex](4\sqrt{3})^2+a^2=(8\sqrt{3})^2[/tex]
[tex]16*3+a^2=64*3[/tex]
[tex]48+a^2=192[/tex]
[tex]48-48+a^2=192-48[/tex]
[tex]a^2=144[/tex]
Upon taking square root of both sides we will get,
[tex]a=\sqrt{144}[/tex]
[tex]a=12[/tex]
Therefore, the length of the altitude of our given equilateral triangle is 12 units and option F is the correct choice.
Which equation is satisfied by all of the plotted points?

The answer is y= -2x
which is greater 14 ounces or 0.4 kilograms
After converting 0.4 kilograms to ounces using the appropriate conversion factors, it is determined that 0.4 kilograms is slightly greater than 14 ounces.
Explanation:To determine which is greater, 14 ounces or 0.4 kilograms, we first need to use the appropriate conversion factors to compare the two measurements in the same unit. Since 1 pound is equivalent to 0.4536 kilograms, and 1 pound is also equal to 16 ounces, we need to convert one of the measures so that both are in either ounces or kilograms for a direct comparison.
Converting 0.4 kilograms to ounces:
1 kilogram is approximately 2.20462 pounds (since 1 pound is 0.4536 kg).So, 0.4 kilograms is 0.4 * 2.20462 pounds, which is approximately 0.882 pounds.Next, we convert 0.882 pounds to ounces by multiplying by the conversion factor of 16 ounces per pound: 0.882 * 16 = 14.11 ounces (approximately).Now we have both weights in ounces, and we can see that 14.11 ounces is slightly more than 14 ounces. Therefore, 0.4 kilograms is greater than 14 ounces.

7.What are the steps that you would follow to recreate a triangle using a protractor, a string, and the AAS Congruence Theorem?
ANSWER:
To construct a triangle given one side and the angle at each end of it with compass and straightedge or ruler. It works by first copying the line segment to form one side of the triangle, then copy the two angles on to each end of it to complete the triangle. Follow these steps to draw the recreate a triangle using a protector, a string and angle, angle side congruence theorem.
STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:
Step 1: You will need to choose two angle and one length for both triangle. Noted that the two angle and one length must be the same for both triangle.
Step 2: Draw a long line on a paper
Step 3: Use a ruler to measure the length ,and then make a mark on the string.
Step 4: Use the string to mark on the long line.
Step 5: Use a protractor to measure
Step 6: Use AAS Congruence Theorem to prove that both triangle are congruent.

Karina uses the system of equations below to compare the monthly utility costs in July and December for electricity, x, and natural gas, y.
750x + 17y = 141.61
300x + 30y = 75.90
Karina solves the system using linear combination and arrives at the equation 116y = 96.28. She then solves this equation for y. Which statement explains Karina’s solution?
a. The cost of electricity is $0.17 per unit.
b. The cost of natural gas is $0.20 per unit.
c. The cost of electricity is $0.72 per unit.
d. The cost of natural gas is $0.83 per unit.
D: The cost of natural gas is $0.83 per unit.
Answer:
Option d is correct
The cost of natural gas (y) = $0.83 per unit
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the system of equation:
750x + 17y = 141.61 ......[1]
300x + 30y =75.90 ......[2]
where x is the cost of electricity and y is the costs of natural gas.
Multiply equation [1] by 30 and equation [2] by 75 we get;
[tex]30 \cdot (750x + 17y) = 30 \cdot 141.61[/tex]
Simplify:
22500x + 510y = 4248.3 ......[3]
[tex]75 \cdot (300x + 30y) = 75 \cdot 75.90[/tex]
Simplify:
22500x + 2250y = 5692.5 .......[4]
Subtract equation [3] from [4] we get;
1740 y = 1444.2
Divide by 15 both sides, we get
116 y = 96.28
Since, Katrina solves the above system using linear equation and arrives at the equation :
116 y = 96.28
Division property of equality states that divide the same number to both sides of an equation:
Divide by 116 to both sides of an equation, to solve for y;
[tex]\frac{116 y}{116} =\frac{96.28}{116}[/tex]
Simplify:
y = 0.83 where y represents the cost of natural gas
Therefore, the cost of natural gas y ,is, $ 0.83 per unit.
