Write the explicit formula for the sequences
3,9,27,81,...

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a geometric sequence. The general formula for any term is

t_n = a*r^(n-1)

t1 = 3

r = 3

t_n = 3* 3^(n - 1)

t_4 should be 81

t_4 = 3*3^(n - 1)

t_4 = 3*3^3

t_4 = 3 * 27

t_4 = 81

Answer 2

Answer:

an = 3 * (3)^ (n-1)  or

an = 3^n

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the common ratio, take the second term and divide by the first term

9/3 = 3

To verify take the third term and divide by the second

27/9 =3

Since this is a geometric sequence, it is of the form

an = a1*r^(n-1)  where a1 is the first term and r is the common ration

an = 3 * (3)^ (n-1)

Since the first term is the same as the term inside the parentheses, we can combine

an = 3^1 * 3 ^ (n-1)

   = 3^ (1+n-1)

  = 3^ (n)

There are a total of 8 checkers

P (black) = black/total

               = 2/8 = 1/4

Then we keep the checker, so there are only 7 checkers in the bag, 6 red and 1 black

P ( red) = red/total

           = 6/7

P (black, red) = 1/4 * 6/7

Area of triangle = 44.104 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula:-

Area of triangle = bh/2

where b - Base  and h - Height

To find the height of triangle

Let h be the height of triangle then we can write,

Sin 63 = h/11

h = 11 * sin 63 = 11 * 0.891 = 9.801 cm

To find the area of triangle

Area = bh/2

 = (9 * 9.801)/2 = 44.104  cm²

Straws are shipped into a box with dimensions of 6.0x6.0x8.0 inches. Each straw is 3/8 inches wide and 7 and 3/4 inches long. How many straws could be shipped into a box without squeezing any straws?

Answers

Answer:

256

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's see the height of the box (8 inches) is long enough for one straw (7 inches and 3/4) but not enough for 2... so there could be only one layer.

Now the box is a prism with a square base (6 inches each side).

How many straws can we fit on one side?  We have to divide the width of the box by the width of a straw.  

[tex]row = \frac{6}{3/8} = \frac{48}{3} = 16[/tex]

We can fit 16 straw per 6-side side of the box... Since the box is 6x6 inches, we can then fit 16 x 16 straws in it... 256 total.

Step-by-step explanation:

To factorise the quadratic

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 21) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 4)

The factors are - 7 and + 3, since

- 7 × 3 = - 21 and - 7 + 3 = - 4, thus

The ratio of football players to soccer players in the room was 5 to 7. If the football and soccer players in the room totaled 48, how many where football players?

Answers

There were 20 football players in the room. Because the ratio of football players to soccer players was 5 to 7, that meant that, should the ratio represent the actual number of football players in the room, there would be 12 football players in the room. However, the ratio has to be set equal to accomodate the 48 football players, therfore the 12 hypothetical players in the room would have to be multiplied by 4 to equalize. But that also means that everything else in the ratio will have to be multiplied by 4 to truly balance the ratio. Since there were 5 out of 12 football players, and there are actually 48 football players, and 12 times 4 equals 48, then 5 times 4 should give us our actual number of football players. Finally, some basic math will tell you that because 5 times 4 equals 20, and we can say that there are actually 20 football players in the room.

Answer:

There are 20 football players

Two cars simultaneously left Points A and B and headed towards each other, and met after 2 hours and 45 minutes. The distance between points A and B is 264 miles. What is the speeds of the cars, if one of the cars travels 14 mph faster than the other?
PLEASE ANSWER THANKS 20 POINTS

Answers

Hello!

The answers are:

[tex]FirstCarSpeed=41mph\\SecondCarSpeed=55mph[/tex]

Why?

To calculate the speed of the cars, we need to write two equations in order to create a relation between the two speeds and be able to calculate one in function of the other.

So, let be the first car speed "x" and the second car speed "y", writing the equations we have:

For the first car:

[tex]x_{FirstCar}=x_o+v*t[/tex]

For the second car:

We know that the speed of the second car travels 14 mph faster than the first car, so:

[tex]x_{SecondCar}=x_o+(v+14mph)*t[/tex]

Now, we already know that both cars met after 2 hours and 45 minutes, and the distance between A and B is 264 miles,  so, we can calculate the relative speed between both carsby the following way:

If the cars are moving towards each other the relative speed will be:

[tex]RelativeSpeed=FirstCarSpeed-(-SecondCarspeed)\\\\RelativeSpeed=x-(-x-14mph)=2x+14mph[/tex]

So , since we know that they covered a combined distance equal to 264 miles in 2 hours + 45 minutes, we  have:

[tex]2hours+45minutes=120minutes+45minutes=165minutes\\\\\frac{165minutes*1hour}{60minutes}=2.75hours[/tex]

Writing the equation:

[tex]264miles=(2x+14mph)*t\\\\264miles=(2x+14mph)*2.75hours\\\\2x+14mph=\frac{264miles}{2.75hours}\\\\2x=96mph-14mph\\\\x=\frac{82mph}{2}=41mph[/tex]

We have, the speed of the first car is equal to 41 mph.

Now, for the second car we have that:

[tex]SecondCarSpeed=FirstCarSpeed+14mph\\\\SecondCarSpeed=41mph+14mph=55mph[/tex]

So,  the speed of the second car is equal to 55 mph.

Hence, the answers are:

[tex]FirstCarSpeed=41mph\\SecondCarSpeed=55mph[/tex]

Jerry solved the system of equations.


x - 3y = 1

7x + 2y = 7


As the first step, he decided to solve for y in the second equation because it had the smallest number as a coefficient. Max told him that there was a more efficient way. What reason can Max give for his statement?


The variable x in the first equation has a coefficient of one so there will be fewer steps to the solution.

The variable x in the second equation has a coefficient of 7 so it will be easy to divide 7 by 7.

The variable y in the second equation has a coefficient of 2 so it will be easy to divide the entire equation by 2.

The variable x in the second equation has the largest coefficient. When dividing by 7, the solution will be a smaller number.

Answers

The most efficient way is the 1st option

because all you have to do is add -3y on both sides to isolate x

If you used any other variables, you would have to use division which are extra steps

Answer:

Hence, the correct option is A) The variable x in the first equation has a coefficient of one so there will be fewer steps to the solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided system of equation.

x - 3y = 1  and  7x + 2y = 7

Let first solve the second equation.

[tex]7x + 2y = 7[/tex]

Step 1:

Divide both the sides by 7.

[tex]x + \frac{2y}{7} = 1[/tex]

Step 2:

[tex]x = 1- \frac{2y}{7} [/tex]

It took 2 steps to isolate the the variable x.

Now again consider the system of equation.

But this time we will solve the first equation.

[tex]x - 3y = 1[/tex]

Step 1:

[tex]x = 1 + 3y[/tex]

it took only 1 step to isolate the variable as the variable x in the first equation has a coefficient of one.

Hence, the correct option is A) The variable x in the first equation has a coefficient of one so there will be fewer steps to the solution.

Which Of the following functions will not have an axis of symmetry x=-1 when graphed

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x=-\frac{b}{2a}[/tex]

If the axis of symmetry is -1 then the relation between the 'a' and 'b' value for all the function that has an axis of symmetry to be -1, is

[tex]b=2a[/tex]

A. [tex]y=4x^2-8x+1[/tex]

We can see that

[tex]-8\ne 2(4)[/tex]

hence this function does not have an AOS of x=-1

The correct choice is A.

B. [tex]y=x^2+2x-6[/tex]

[tex]2\ne 2(1)[/tex], hence this function has an axis of symmetry of x=-1.

C. [tex]y=3x^2+6x[/tex]

[tex]6=2(3)[/tex]

This also has AOS x=-1

D. [tex]y=-x^2-2x+3[/tex]

[tex]-2=2(-1)[/tex]

AOS is x=-1

Use the parabola tool to graph the quadratic function f(x)=(x-5)^2+1

Answers

Answer:

Look to the attached graph

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise how to graph the quadratic function

- Find the vertex of it

- Find the y-intercept

- Find the x-intercept

∵ f(x) = (x - 5)² + 1 ⇒ the completing square form

- The completing square form for any quadratic is

 ( x - h)² + k, where h and k are the coordinate of the vertex point

* Lets compare the two forms

∵ (x - h)² + k = (x - 5)² + 1

∴ h = 5 and k = 1

∴ The vertex of the parabola is (5 , 1)

- To find the x-intercept put f(x) = 0

∵ (x - 5)² + 1 = 0 ⇒ subtract 1 from both sides

∴ (x - 5)² = -1 ⇒ the square can not give -ve number

∴ The parabola does not intersect the x-axis

- To find the y-intercept put x = 0

∵ f(0) = (0 - 5)² + 1 = 25 + 1 = 26

∴ The parabola intersects the y-axis at point (0 , 26)

- The parabola is opened upward because the coefficient of x² is +ve

* Now lets graph it

- Look to the attached graph
