A recursive formula for a geometric sequence is given. What is an explicit formula for this sequence?

a1=100an=12 · an−1a subscript 1 baseline equals 100 line break a subscript n baseline equals one-half times a subscript n minus 1 baseline


A.
an=12 · 100n−1a subscript n baseline equals one half times 100 superscript n minus 1 baseline


B.
an=100 · (12)n−1a subscript n baseline equals 100 times left parenthesis one half right parenthesis superscript n minus 1 baseline


C.
an=100+(12)n−1a subscript n baseline equals 100 plus left parenthesis one half right parenthesis superscript n minus 1 baseline

a + 1/b = 5

b + 1/c = 12

c + 1/a = 13

manipulating the first line by subtracting 1/b on both sides

a = 5 - 1/b

manipulating the 3rd line by subtracting 1/a on both sides.

c = 13 - 1/a

plugging a into this

c = 13 -1/(5 -1b)

c = 13 -5 +1/b

c= 8 + 1/b

plugging c into the 2nd line

b + 1/(8 +1/b) = 12

b + 1/8 + b = 12

2b + 1/8 = 12

devide both sides by two

b + 1/16 = 6

b = 11 + 15/16

plugging the value for b into the first line to get a

a + 1/(11 + 15/16) = 5

a + 1/11 + 16/15 = 5

a + 15/165 + 176/165 = 5

a + 191/165 = 5

a = 5 + 191/165

a = 1016/165

plugging b into the 2nd line to get c

11 + 15/16 + 1/c = 12

1/c = 1/16

multiply by c on both sides

1 = 1/16c

multiply by 16 on both sides

16 = c

Answer:

the answer is three , but let me try to help explain...

in a line the slope (M) as in y=mx + b

is a constant number ... rise over run for every unit in the x direction the y changes by that amount

in your graph what you have to do is locate where the red line crosses the grid in a "nice"  (at the corner of a box).... notice that at the 2 for yards it exactly crosses at the 6 for feet...

that suggests that the "slope", "proportional constant" ,rise over run".

"gradient"  what ever the word you want to use is 6/2 which is 3

Answer:

[tex]x - 3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Volume = x(x - 3)(x + 4)[/tex]

Required

The shortest side

The volume of a rectangular prism is:

[tex]Volume = Length * Width * Height[/tex]

By comparison, we have:

[tex]Length = x[/tex]

[tex]Width = x-3[/tex]

[tex]Height = x + 4[/tex]

In ascending order, the sides are:

[tex]Width = x-3[/tex]

[tex]Length = x[/tex]

[tex]Height = x + 4[/tex]

This is so because:

Irrespective of the value of x

x - 3 will be less than x

x + 4 will be more than x

Hence, the shortest length is:

[tex]Width = x-3[/tex]

Answer:

-3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions in an effort to make this problem easier to solve.

-2 1/2 as a mixed number is -5/2 and -1 3/4 as a mixed number is -7/4.

Our problem is now -5/2 - (-7/4).

We still can't solve this because the two fractions do not share a common denominator. 4 can serve as one, so -5/2 with a denominator of 4 would be -10/4.

The problem is now -10/4 - (-7/4).

Two negatives make a positive so the problem can be rewritten as -10/4 + 7/4. The final answer is -3/4.

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Each number in the sequence is being multiplied by 4

like this:

1, 4, 16, 64, 256

Answer:

21. C, 24.B

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the y-value for x = 0 is not zero, the function cannot have sine in it because sin of 0 is always 0. Therefore, the function will have cos in it. That leaves only B and C left. Since cos(0) is always 1, and the value of y when x = 0 is 0.5, the function will have 1/2 multiplied by a cos function. The only answer option that has that is C.

Now, for the next problem, we know the values of all three sides, and we need to find one angle. We can use the law of cosines for this and plug the values into the equation:

[tex]55^2=40^2+24^2-2(40)(24)\cos(C)[/tex]

We can subtract 40 squared plus 24 squared from both sides to get

[tex]849=-2(40)(24)\cos(C)[/tex]

Negative two times 40 times 24 equals -1920. Dividing -1920 from both sides gets us

[tex]\frac{849}{-1920}=\cos(C)[/tex]

Plugging this equation into a calculator and solving for C, we get the answer as approximately

C = 116.24353.

This rounds to 116.2

Answer:

12cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing we want to do is find out what type of quadrilateral is shown so we can identify a formula we can use to solve for the area

The quadrilateral shown is a trapezoid

It's a trapezoid because it has four sides and one pair of parallel sides ( side AD and side BC are both formed vertically making them parallel as they can be extended an infinite length and will never intersect. ) This being the properties of a trapezoid

Now that we have identified the type of quadrilateral that the figure is, let's find the area.

Area of a trapezoid formula:

A = (a+b/2)h

Where a and b = bases and h = height

* Identify variable of quadrilateral shown*

( Note that each unit = 1cm )

The bases have lengths of 4 units (4cm) and 2 units (2cm)

The height can be represented by an imaginary line from a to c

From a to c is 4 units (4cm)

Now that we have identified the variables let's plug them into the formula

A = (a+b/2)h

a = 4

b = 2

h = 4

* Plug the variables into the formula *

A = (4+2)/(2)4

If you plug this into a calculator you get that the area is 12

If you need the work for evaluation here it is:

Evaluate using PEMDAS

Parenthesis

Exponents

Multiplication and Division ( left to right)

Addition and Subtraction ( left to right )

(4+2)/2 * 4

First step is to evaluate the operations inside of the parenthesis (4+2)

6/2 * 4

The next step is to evaluate exponents

There are no exponents so we move on to multiplication and division evaluate whatever come first going left to right

First comes division

3 * 4

Then multiplication

A = 12.

Answer:

h = 256 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The initial velocity of firework, v = 128 ft/s

The acceleration due to gravity is-16 ft/s².

We need to find the maximum height reached by the firework.

The equation for the firework is :

[tex]h(t) = -16t^2 + 128t[/tex]

To find the vertex's x-coordinate, we can use  

[tex]t=\dfrac{-b}{2a}\\\\t=\dfrac{-128}{2\times (-16)}\\\\t=4\ s[/tex]

Put all the values in the expression for h (t).

[tex]h(t) = -16(4)^2 + 128(4)\\\\h(t)=256\ ft[/tex]

So, the maximum height reached by the firework is 256 feet.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The shorter arc is 22 cm.

Arc length formula:

Circumference formula:

Use the first formula to work out the value of C:

Length of arc=L=22cm

We know

[tex]\boxed{\sf L=\dfrac{\Theta}{360}\times πr}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto 22=\dfrac{45}{360}\times 2πr[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{2πr}{8}=22[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto {2πr=176}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto Circumference=176cm[/tex]

Answer:

x = cost of daylily = $12

y = cost of ivy = $2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = cost of daylily

y = cost of ivy

Scott:

12x + 13y = 170

Ashley:

14x + 2y = 172

12x + 13y = 170 (1)

14x + 2y = 172 (2)

Multiply (1) by 14 and (2) by 12

168x + 182y = 2380 (3)

168x + 24y = 2064 (4)

Subtract (4) from (3) to eliminate x

182y - 24y = 2380 - 2064

158y = 316

y = 316/158

y = 2

Substitute y = 2 into (1)

12x + 13y = 170 (1)

12x + 13(2) = 170

12x + 26 = 170

12x = 170 - 26

12x = 144

x = 144/12

x = 12

x = cost of daylily = $12

y = cost of ivy = $2

Complete question is;

An online store receives customer satisfaction ratings between 0 and 100, inclusive. In the first 10 ratings the store received, the average (arithmetic mean) of the ratings was 75. What is the least value the store can receive for the 11th rating and still be able to have an average of at least 85 for the first 20 ratings?

Answer:

50

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that In the first 10 ratings the store received arithmetic mean of the ratings = 75.

Thus;

Sum of the first 10 ratings = 75 × 10 = 750

Now, for the mean of the first 20 ratings to be at least 85, it means that the sum of the first 20 ratings would be; 85 × 20 = 1700

Thus, the sum of the next 10 ratings would be; 1700 − 750 = 950.

If maximum rating = 100, then the maximum possible value of the sum of the 12th to 20th ratings is given by;

9 × 100 = 900.

Now, in order to make the store have an average of at least 85 for the first 20 ratings, the least value for the 11th rating is;

950 − 900 = 50

Answer:

yes, it is B

Step-by-step explanation:

every input value of x has an unique result value y.

there are no 2 values for x that produce the same result value y.
