Write an explicit and recursive rule for a sequence given the following:

a4 = 2
r = 1/3

Recursive rule: ?
Explicit rule: ?

Answers

Answer 1

ANSWER

See explanation

EXPLANATION

Question 1:

The third term of the arithmetic sequence is :

14=a+2d...(1)

The twelveth term is

59=a+11d...(2)

Subtract equation (1) from (2)

45=9d

This implies that

d=5

a=14-2(5)=4

The explicit rule is;

[tex]a_{n}=4 + 5(n - 1)[/tex]

[tex]a_{n}=4 + 5n -5[/tex]

[tex]a_{n} = 5n -1[/tex]

Recursive formula:

[tex]a_{n}=a_{n - 1} + 5[/tex]

Question 2

The geometric sequence has the fourth term to be 2 and the common ratio to be r=⅓

This implies that,

[tex]a {( \frac{1}{3} })^{3} = 2[/tex]

This implies that,

[tex] \frac{a}{27} = 2[/tex]

[tex]a = 54[/tex]

The explicit rule:

[tex]a_n=54 {( \frac{1}{3} })^{n - 1} [/tex]

The recursive rule is

[tex]a_n=( \frac{1}{3} )a_{n-1}[/tex]

where,

[tex]a_1 = 54[/tex]

What is the completely factored form of x4 + 8x2 – 9?

Answers

ANSWER

[tex] ( {x}^{2} + 9)({x} - 1)(x + 1)[/tex]

EXPLANATION

The given function is

[tex] {x}^{4} + 8 {x}^{2} - 9[/tex]

Split the middle term

[tex] {x}^{4} + 9 {x}^{2} - {x}^{2} - 9[/tex]

Factor by grouping;

[tex]{x}^{2} ( {x}^{2} + 9) -1 ({x}^{2} + 9)[/tex]

Factor further to get:

[tex] ( {x}^{2} + 9)({x}^{2} - 1)[/tex]

Apply difference of two squares to get:

[tex] ( {x}^{2} + 9)({x} - 1)(x + 1)[/tex]

Answer:

[tex](x^2+9)(x-1)(x+1)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We would need to let u = x^2 and use middle term factorization first. let's do this:

if u = x^2, then x^4 + 8x^2 – 9 would be

u^2+8u-9

Middle term factorization of this is:

(u+9)(u-1)

now replacing back u = x^2:

(x^2+9)(x^2-1)

Using the formula a^2 - b^2 = (a+b)(a-b), we can write (x^2 - 1) as (x+1)(x-1).

So, the final factored form is:  (x^2+9)(x-1)(x+1)

what is 6.4r−7−2.9 simplified

Answers

The simplified expression is 3.5r - 7.

To simplify the expression 6.4r - 7 - 2.9r, first, combine like terms by subtracting the coefficients of 'r'.

This yields (6.4 - 2.9)r. Simplifying the coefficients gives 3.5r. Then, subtract 7. Therefore, the simplified expression is 3.5r - 7.

This means that when you distribute the 'r', you multiply it by 3.5, then subtract 7 from the result.

The simplified expression is 3.5r - 7.

Complete question :- Simplify 6.4r - 7 - 2.9r.

Use the remainder theorem to divide 5x^2+9x-2 by x+3. what is the remainder?
A)16
B)-44
C)-20
D)40

Answers

Answer:

A)16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x)=5x^2+9x-2

Remainder theorem states that when f(x) is divided by x-a then the remainder can be calculated by calculating f(a).

Now Using the remainder theorem to divide 5x^2+9x-2 by x+3 to find the remainder:

f(x)=5x^2+9x-2

f(-3) = 5(-3)^2 +9(-3) -2

       =5(9) - 27 -2

       = 45-29

Answers

Answer:

r = 17 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The radius is the distance from the centre (- 7, - 1) to the point on the circle

(8, 7)

Use the distance formula to calculate the radius (r)

r = √ (x₂ - x₁ )² + (y₂ - y₁ )²

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 7, - 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (8, 7)

r = [tex]\sqrt{(8+7)^2+(7+1)^2}[/tex]

  = [tex]\sqrt{15^2+8^2}[/tex]

  = [tex]\sqrt{225+64}[/tex]

A spinner is numbered from 1 through 10 with each number equally likely to occur. What is the probability of obtaining a number less than 3 or greater than 8 in a single spin?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]P = 0.4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

If each number X has the same probability of occur then the probability for each number is:

[tex]P = \frac{1}{10}[/tex]

Note that X is a discrete random variable, and the probability of obtaining an X number is independent for each trial.

So the probability that X is less than 3 is:

[tex]P (X <3) = P (1) + P (2)[/tex]

But [tex]P (1) = P (2) = \frac{1}{10}[/tex]

So:

[tex]P (X <3) = P (1) + P (2) = \frac{2}{10} = \frac{1}{5}[/tex]

Also

[tex]P (X> 8) = P (9) + P (10) = \frac{1}{10} = \frac{1}{5}[/tex]

Finally

[tex]P (X <3\ or\ X> 8) = \frac{1}{5} +\frac{1}{5} = \frac{2}{5} = 0.4[/tex]

Find the value of each variable

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is option C

a = 10√3, b = 5√3, c = 15 and d = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Points to remember

The angles of a right angled triangle, 30°, 60° and 90° then sides are in the ratio, 1: √3 : 2

To find the value of variables

From the figure we can see 2 right angled triangle with angle 30, 60 and 90

we get, d= 5 then b = 5√3

b = 5√3  the c = 5√3 * √3 = 15

and a = 2 * 5√3 = 10√3

Therefore the correct answer is option C

a = 10√3, b = 5√3, c = 15 and d = 5

Answer:

d.[tex]a=10\sqrt3,b=5\sqrt3,c=15,d=5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the value of each variable.

[tex]\frac{P}{H}=sin\theta[/tex]

[tex]\frac{b}{10}=sin 60^{\circ}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{b}{10}=\frac}\sqrt3}{2}[/tex]

[tex]b=10\times \frac{\sqrt3}{2}=5\sqrt3[/tex]

[tex]\frac{d}{10}=cos 60^{\circ}[/tex]    ([tex]cos\theta=\frac{base}{hypotenuse}[/tex])

[tex]d=\frac{1}{2}\times 10=5[/tex]

[tex]\frac{b}{a}=sin30^{\circ}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{5\sqrt3}{a}=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

[tex]a=10\sqrt3[/tex]

[tex]\frac{b}{c}}=tan 30^{\circ}[/tex]   ([tex]tan\theta=\frac{p}{b}[/tex])

[tex]\frac{5\sqrt3}{c}=\frac{1}{\sqrt3}[/tex]

[tex]c=5\sqrt3\times \sqrt3=15[/tex]

[tex]a=10\sqrt3,b=5\sqrt3,c=15,d=5[/tex]

Hence, option d is true.

[tex]y=-\frac{1}{2}x+4[/tex]

[tex]y=2x-1[/tex]

All the points on a line is are the solutions of the equation of line.

From the graph it is clear that the lines intersect each other at point (2,3). It means both the lines passes through the point (2,3) and point (2,3) is the solution of given system of equations.

Since (2,3) is the solution of given system of equations, therefore the correct option is A.

What is the value of the expression?
tan π/6

Answers

Exact Form: √3/3

Decimal Form: 0.57735026

sorry if i got it wrong, i tried my best on this :)

The value of the expression tan π/6 is √3/3 or approximately 0.5774.

The value of the expression tan π/6 is √3/3 or approximately 0.5774.

To find this value, we can remember that tan θ = sin θ / cos θ. So, tan(π/6) = sin(π/6) / cos(π/6).

Thus, tan(π/6) = (√3/2) / (1/2) = √3/3.

Answer:

hope it helps

The terms absolute value, continuous function, step function, and piecewise-defined function are matched with their respective definitions: the absolute value measures distance from zero, a continuous function has a graph without breaks, a step function has a graph with horizontal steps, and a piecewise-defined function has different rules for different intervals.

Matching Vocabulary to Definitions

Let's match each mathematical term to its correct definition:

Absolute value - This is the function whose output equals the input for non-negative numbers, and whose output is the opposite of a negative input. It can be thought of as the distance from zero on the number line, regardless of direction.

Continuous function - A function whose graph has no breaks is known as continuous. It means you can draw the function without lifting your pen off the paper, indicating it has no jumps or holes.

Step function - Such a function has a graph that consists of horizontal line segments. The value of the function changes in 'steps' rather than smoothly.

Piecewise-defined function - When a function is defined on different intervals by different domain rules, it is known as a piecewise-defined function. It's like having multiple functions strung together each applicable to different parts of the domain.

The line that is perpendicular to this line has slope m=-1

The equation is given by the formula;
