What are practical situations of geometric series.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

One of the practical situation of geometric series is : A ball bouncing is an example of a finite geometric sequence. Each time the ball bounces it’s height gets cut down by half. If the ball’s first height is 4 feet, the next time it bounces it’s highest bounce will be at 2 feet, then 1, then 6 inches and so on, until the ball stops bouncing

Answer 2

Answer:

Geometric series are seen in practical situations, most notably in those involving geometric growth or decay. If a series of numbers are formed by percentages, then it can result in a geometric sequence. Ex. compound interest (see below).

Step-by-step explanation:

A geometric series is the result of adding the terms of a geometric sequence. These sequences have a common ratio, r, which is used to find missing terms. The common ratio is found with [tex]r=\frac{a_n}{a_{n-1}}[/tex]. For example, [tex]a_1(r)=a_2, \mbox{ and } a_2(r)=a_3... \mbox{ etc.}[/tex]

Geometric sequences can be used to model practical situations, and such situation could involve geometric growth or decay.

A geometric sequence can be used to model compound interest. An example of this is [tex]A = P (1 + \frac{r}{100})^n[/tex] where the common ratio, r, of the series is equal to 1 + r/100 in the compound interest formula above.

If AB = 10, AC = 6, and BC = 6, find AD:

Answers

The length of AD in triangle ABC in which ∠1 = ∠2 is 3.75.

What is Angle Bisector?

The (interior) bisector of an angle, also called the internal angle bisector, is the line or line segment that divides the angle into two equal parts.

Here, Let the lenght of AD be x

         AB = 10 , AC = 6 and BC = 6

by Angle-Bisector theorem which states that

if a ray bisects an angle of a triangle, then it divides the opposite side into segments that are proportional to the other two sides.

So, CD/BD =AC/AB

      CD/(BC-CD) = 6/10

       10. CD = 6.BC - 6.CD

        16 CD = 6 X 6

         16 CD = 36

          CD = 36/16

         CD  = 2.25

Now, AD = AC - CD

         AD = 6 - 2.25

         AD = 3.75

Thus, the length of AD in triangle ABC in which ∠1 = ∠2 is 3.75.

Answer to y=3x+2
(-2,0)
You can check by putting 0 instead of Y or -2 instead of X
When x = 2 then y = 3 x 2 + 2 = 8
When x = 0 then y = 3 x 0 + 2 = 2
When x = -2 then y = 3 x -2 + 2 = -4
So the middle two answers (0, 2) and (2, 8) are both points on the line

Answers

Answer:A.   [tex]\displaystyle{\frac{-(-2) \pm \sqrt{(2)^{2}-4(1)(4)}}{2(1)} }[/tex]

Find the values a, b, and c to substitute into the quadratic formula.

Remember:Standard form

Notice how there are a, b, and c. Everything is left of the equal sign, leaving 0 on the right.

ax² + bx + c = 0

Quadratic formula

Notice how there are a, b, and c too, just like in standard form. After we find standard form, we can substitute a, b and c values into the quadratic formula.

[tex]\displaystyle{x=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a} }[/tex]

Step-by-step solution

Here are the steps we will follow:

Rearrange the equation from the question into standard form.Determine the values for a, b, and c.Substitute a, b, and c into the quadratic formula.Compare options and simplify as needed.

Rearrange into standard form

Move everything to the left while keeping both sides equal.

x² + 1 = 2x – 3                 Equation from the question

x² + 1 + 3 = 2x – 3 + 3     Add three to both sides.

x² + 1 + 3 = 2x                 -3 + 3 cancels out to 0.

x² + 4 = 2x                      Simplify.

x² + 4 – 2x = 2x – 2x     Subtract 2x from both sides.

x² + 4 – 2x = 0                No numbers on the right side is the same as 0.

x² – 2x + 4 = 0                Rearrange to follow ax² + bx + c = 0.

Determine a, b, and c values

Find a, b, and c from standard form.

ax² + bx + c = 0         Standard form

x² – 2x + 4 = 0           No number attached to x² means a = 1.

a = 1,  b = –2,  and  c = 4

Substitute into the quadratic formula

Substitute a = 1, b = –2, and c = 4 into the quadratic formula.

[tex]\displaystyle{x=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a} }[/tex]    

Here is how our formula set up should look:

[tex]\displaystyle{x=\frac{-(-2) \pm \sqrt{(-2)^{2}-4(1)(4)}}{2(1)} }[/tex]

Compare answer options

Let's compare formula set up to the options in the question.

The denominator is 2(1). So, the answer is not option B.

Inside the square root, it says –4(1)(4). So, the answer is not option D.

This leaves us with either option A or option C.

Simplify

Before the ±, it says –(–2). When simplified, –(–2) is 2.

Option C has –2. So, the answer is not option C.

Inside the square root, it says (–2)², which is equal to 2².

When solving exponents of negative numbers,

an odd exponent results in a negative product, and;an even exponent results in a positive product.

The exponent 2 is even.

(–2)² = 4

∵ (–2)² = 4 and 2² = 4

∴ (–2)² = 2²

(–2)² is the same as 2².

Therefore, the answer is option A.

5. Find the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the given line and passes through the given point. y = 5x-1; (-1, 1)​

Answers

Answer:

y = -0.2x+ 0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

If a line is perpendicular to another line then the slope of the line = the negative reciprocal of the other line

Here Line AB has the equation y = 5x - 1. Here slope = 5
This comes from the fact that if a line has the equation y= mx + c then the slope = m and the y intercept = c

If XY is the line perpendicular to AB then its slope = -1/5. Let the y intercept of XY be c

Then equation of line XY is: y = (-1/5)x + c = -0.2x + c (1)

Since it passes through (-1, 1) ie through x = -1, y=1, substitution these values into the above equation (1), we get

1 = (-0.2)(-1) + c or

1 = 0.2 + c or  

c = 0.8

This window is designed in the shape of a right trapezoid.

Answers

Answer: 128°

Step-by-step explanation:

   There are 360° in a trapezoid. Since this is a right trapezoid, two of those angles will be equal to 90°. We will set up the following equation, and solve.

360° = 90° + 90° + 52° + x°

360° = 90° + 90° + 52° + x°

360° = 232° + x°

128° = x

x = 128°

   The obtuse angle has a measure of 128°.

Using the law of cosines, write an algebraic proof to show that the angles in an equilateral triangle must equal 60°. Use "∧" to indicate exponents. For example, type a2 as a∧2. (Hint: Let s be a length of each side and x be the angle measure; then use these variables in the law of cosines.)

Answers

The algebraic proof shows that the angles in an equilateral triangle must equal 60° each

What is trigonometry?

Trigonometry is the branch of mathematics which set up a relationship between the sides and angle of the right-angle triangles.

From the question, we are to use the law of cosines to write an algebraic proof that shows that the angles in an equilateral triangle must equal 60°.

Given any triangle ABC, the measures of angles A, B, and C by the law of cosines are

cos A = (b² + c² - a²)/2bc

cos B= (a² + c²- b²)/2ac

cos C = (a²+ b²- c²)/2ab  

Now, given that the triangle is equilateral, with each of the side lengths equal to s

That is, a = b = c = s

Then, we can write that

cos A = (s² + s² - s²)/(2s×s)

cos A = (s² )/(2s²)

cos A = 1/2

cos A = 0.5

∴ A = cos⁻¹(0.5)

A = 60°

Also

cos B = (s² + s² - s²)/(2s×s)

cos B = (s²)/(2s²)

cos B = 1/2

cos B = 0.5

∴ B = cos⁻¹(0.5)

B = 60°

and

cos C = (s² + s² - s²)/(2s×s)

cos C = (s² )/(2s²)

cos C = 1/2

cos C = 0.5

∴ C = cos⁻¹(0.5)

C = 60°

Thus,

A = 60°, B = 60° and C = 60°

Hence, the algebraic proof above shows that the angles in an equilateral triangle must equal 60° each.

The amount of money accumulated after investing the given amount of money at the given rate and time period is $85389.

What is an interest in banking?

Interest is simply the amount of money a lender or financial institution receives for lending out money or pays for receiving money.

The formula for calculating compound interest is expressed as;

A = P(1 + r/k)^(k*t)

Where A is final amount, P is initial principal balance, r is interest rate, k is  number of times interest applied per time period and t is number of time periods elapsed.

Given that;

Initial principal balance P = $40500Interest rate r = 3.8= 3.8/100 = 0.038Time t = 20 yearsNumber of times interest applied per time period = 12 (annually) = 12/12 = 1 Amount accumulated A = ?

A = P(1 + r/k)^(k*t)

A = 40500(1 + 0.038/1)¹ˣ²⁰

A = 40500 × (1.038)²⁰

A = 40500 × 2.10837

A = $85389

Therefore, the amount of money accumulated after investing the given amount of money at the given rate and time period is $85389.
