Compare two sequence 2 4 6 8 102 4 8 16 32

Answers

Answer 1

The given sequences are

[tex]\begin{gathered} 2,4,6,8,10\rightarrow(1) \\ 2,4,8,16,32\rightarrow(2) \end{gathered}[/tex]

In the sequence (1):

[tex]\begin{gathered} 4-2=2 \\ 6-4=2 \\ 8-6=2 \\ 10-8=2 \end{gathered}[/tex]

There is a common difference of 2

Then it is an arithmetic sequence

In the sequence (2):

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{4}{2}=2 \\ \frac{8}{4}=2 \\ \frac{16}{8}=2 \\ \frac{32}{16}=2 \end{gathered}[/tex]

There is a common ratio of 2

Then it is a geometric sequence

The first sequence is increasing by 2

The second sequence is multiplying by 2

Total marbles (possible outcome) is,

Let P(R) represent the probablity of picking a red marble,

P(G) represent the probability of picking a green marble and,

P(B) represent the probability of picking a blue marble.

Flora has an annual income of $18,500. She has $6,500 withheld asdeductions. What is the amount of each paycheck if she gets paidsemimonthly?a. $500b. $461.54c. $711.54d. $1,000

Answers

To calculate the amount of each semimonthly paycheck, we need to find the actual amount of money Flora actually receives annually.

Her income is $18500, but $6500 are deducted. Then:

[tex]18500-6500=12000[/tex]

The actual money she receives in one year, after deductions, is $12000.

If she receives semimonthly paychecks, we need to bear in mind that in total she receives 24 paychecks in one year. This considering that semimonthly means that she receives two paychecks in a month.

Then, we just need to divide $12000 by 24 to obtain the amount of each paycheck:

[tex]\frac{12000}{24}=500[/tex]

The amount of each paycheck is $500.

Reflect (1,-4) Over the Y axis and over the X axis.

Answers

Answer

Check Explanation

Explanation

To reflect a point A (x, y) over the y-axis, the new coordinates become A' (-x, y)

For the point B(x, y) over the x-axis, the new coordinates become B'(x, -y)

So, reflecting the point (1, -4) over the y-axis, we have (-1, -4)

Reflecting the point (1, -4) over the x-axis, we have (1, 4)

Reflecting (1, -4) over both x-axis and then y-axis, we have (-1, 4)

To find:

The correct function.

Explanation:

Let us consider the function given in option D.

[tex]f(x)=\frac{x^2}{2}-4x+5[/tex]

Differentiating with respect to x we get,

[tex]\begin{gathered} f^{\prime}(x)=\frac{2x}{2}-4 \\ f^{\prime}(x)=x-4 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Substituting x = 2 in the function f(x), we get

[tex]\begin{gathered} f(2)=\frac{2^2}{2}-4(2)+5 \\ =2-8+5 \\ =-6+5 \\ f(2)=-1 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, the given conditions are satisfied.

So, the function is,

[tex]f(x)=\frac{x^{2}}{2}-4x+5[/tex]

In order to find the amount of blue paint needed, we can write the following rule of three:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{green}\to\text{blue} \\ 1\text{ batch}\to2\frac{3}{8}\text{ oz} \\ 5\text{ batches}\to x\text{ oz} \end{gathered}[/tex]

First, let's convert the mixed number into an improper fraction:

[tex]2\frac{3}{8}=2+\frac{3}{8}=\frac{16}{8}+\frac{3}{8}=\frac{19}{8}[/tex]

From this rule of three, we can write the following equation and solve it for x:

On New Year's Eve, the probability of a person having a car accident is 0.08.

What is the probability of a person driving while intoxicated or having a car accident ? A.0.15 B.0.16 C.0.18 D.0.32

Answers

Answer:

D. 0.32

Explanation:

The probability of a person driving while intoxicated or having a car accident can be calculated as:

[tex]P=P(\text{Intoxicated)}+P(\text{ Accident) - P(Intoxicated and Accident)}[/tex]

So, replacing P(Intoxicated) = 0.28, P(Accident) = 0.08 and P(Intoxicated and Accident) = 0.04, we get

[tex]\begin{gathered} P=0.28+0.08-0.04 \\ P=0.32 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, the answer is

there are 750 seats.the number of seats in a row is 5 less than the number of rows.how many seats are there in a row?

Answers

Given:

The total number of seats, T=750.

Let x be the number of seats in a row and y be the number of rows.

It is given that the number of seats in a row is 5 less than the number of rows.

Hence, the number of seats in a row can be expressed as,

[tex]x=y-5\text{ ---(a)}[/tex]

Now, expression for the total number of seats can be given by,

[tex]T=xy[/tex]

Plug in x=y-5 and T=750 in the above equation and simplify.

[tex]\begin{gathered} 750=(y-5)y \\ 750=y^2-5y \\ y^2-5y-750=0\text{ ---(1)} \end{gathered}[/tex]

The equation (1) is in the form of a quadratic equation of the form,

[tex]ay^2+by+c=0\text{ ---(2)}[/tex]

Comparing equations (1) and (2), a=1, b=-5 and c=-750.

Now, using discriminant method, the solution of y can be expressed as,

[tex]\begin{gathered} y=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt[]{b^2-4ac}}{2a} \\ y=\frac{-(-5)\pm\sqrt[]{(-5)^2-4\times1\times(-750)}}{2\times1} \\ y=\frac{5\pm\sqrt[]{25+3000}}{2\times1}\text{ } \\ y=\frac{5\pm\sqrt[]{3025}}{2} \\ y=\frac{5\pm55}{2}\text{ } \\ y=\frac{5+55}{2}\text{ or y=}\frac{5-55}{2} \\ y=\frac{60}{2}\text{ or y=}-\frac{50}{2} \\ y=30\text{ or y=-25} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Since the number of rows cannot be negative, y=30.

Put y=30 in equation (a) to find x.

[tex]\begin{gathered} x=30-5 \\ x=25 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, the number of seats in a row is 25.

Substitute n=9 in (1)

a₉=a+8d

12x+9=a+8d

12x+9-a/8=d..(3)

Equate 2 and 3

4x-3-a/4=12x+9-a/8

8(4x-3-a)=4(12x+9-a)

32x-24-8a=48x+36-4a

32x-24-8a-48x-36+4a=0

-16x-4a-60

-16x-60=4a

a=-4x-15

Hence the first term of the AP sequence is -4x-15
