Write a rule for the nth term of the geometric sequence given a_7=58, a_11=94

Answers

Answer 1

We are told the sequence is arithmetic. This means that the difference between one therm and the next is a constant.

We are also given two terms of the sequence. Let's see what their difference is

[tex]a_{11}-a_7=94-58=36[/tex]

This means that, in general

[tex]a_{k+4}-a_k=36[/tex]

With this, we can deduce that the difference between any two cnsecutive terms will be 9, for example

[tex]a_7=58,a_6=49,a_5=40,a_4=31,a_3=22[/tex]

Indeed,

[tex]a_7-a_3=58-22=36[/tex]

Now we should find the first term of the sequence, a₀, in order to find the rule for the nth term.

[tex]a_2=13,a_1=4,a_0=-5[/tex]

In general, the rule for the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is given by

[tex]a_n=a_0+d(n)[/tex]

where d is the difference between two consecutive term. In this case we have

[tex]a_n=-5+9\cdot n[/tex]

with n=0,1,2,....

ANSWER:

[tex]P=(\frac{2}{3},\frac{13}{3})[/tex]

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

We have the following formula to calculate the point P

[tex]\begin{gathered} x_p=\frac{x_2\cdot a+x_1\cdot b}{a+b}_{} \\ y_p=\frac{y_2\cdot a+y_1\cdot b}{a+b}_{} \\ a\colon b=1\colon2 \\ (x_1,y_1)=(0,3) \\ (x_2,y_2)=(2,7) \end{gathered}[/tex]

Replacing:

[tex]\begin{gathered} x_p=\frac{2\cdot1+0\cdot2}{1+2}=\frac{2+0}{3}=\frac{2}{3} \\ y_p=\frac{7\cdot1+3\cdot2}{1+2}=\frac{7+6}{3}=\frac{13}{3} \\ \text{The point p is:} \\ (\frac{2}{3},\frac{13}{3}) \end{gathered}[/tex]

As part of a class project, a university student surveyed students in the cafeteria to look for a relationship between the students' eye color and hair color. The table contains the survey results. Match the descriptions with the correct values.

Answers

Ok, so

If we analyze the tab, we notice the following things:

- The number of students with blue eyes and blond hair is 42. That's because if we go to the table and look at the rows and columns, 42 is the number which relations these two facts.

- The number of students with gray eyes and brown hair, is 5. That's because if we go to the table and look at the rows and columns, 5 is the number which relations these two facts.

- The difference of the number of students with gray eyes and brown hair and the number of students with green eyes and black hair is:

- Green eyes and black hair - gray eyes and brown hair

=> 11 - 5, which is 6.

Answers

The first statement cannot be true since the complete figure is not the same and sides cannot be overlapped together and look the same without a translation.

The second statement is not true either because if the full figure was translated it would look the same in another position and this is not the case.

The third and forth statements are true because figures were translated and didn't suffer any expansions or contractions which means that all of its sides must be equal and make them congruent.

If one zero of 5² + 13 + is the reciprocal of the other, find the value of k?

Answers

Answer:

k = 5

Explanation:

The given polynomial is

5² + 13 +

Let one of the zeros be z. Given that one of the zero is the reciprocal of the other, the reciprocal of z is 1/z. The roots are z and 1/z

The standard form of a quadratic polynomial is

ax^2 + bx + c

By comparing the polynomial expressions,

a = 5, b = 13, c = k

The product of the roots of a quadratic polynomial is c/a = k/5

Thus,

1/z * z = k/5

1 = k/5

By cross multiplying,

k = 5

A line is drawn on a coordinate plane so that it is parallel to the x-axis and passes through the point (4.6). Which statement identifies equation and slope of this line?

Answers

Answer:

A. The equation of the line is y = 6, and the slope is 0

Explanations:

Note that:

When a line is parallel to the x -axis, the slope of that line equals to zero

According to the question, the line passes through the point with coordinates (4, 6)

The equation of a line passing through a point of coordinates (x₁ , y₁) is given by the equation:

y - y₁ = m ( x - x₁)

x₁ = 4, y₁ = 6

Substitute x₁ = 4, and y₁ = 6 into the given equation:

y - 6 = 0(x - 4)

y - 6 = 0

y = 6

The equation of the line is y = 6, and the slope is 0

I need help with this practice I believe the subject for this is complex numbers and vectors I will send you an additional picture that goes along with this, it is a graph, use the graph to answer

Answers

Solution

- In order to plot these vectors using Parallelogram law, we need to write them in rectangular form i.e. in terms of the x and y-components.

- This is done below:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \vec{a}=-3i-5j \\ \vec{b}=i+4j \end{gathered}[/tex]

- We can then proceed to plot the vectors on a graph.

- For vector a, the line of magnitude extends from the origin (0, 0) to the point (-3, -5) while the line of the magnitude of vector b extends from the origin (0, 0) to the point (1, 4).

- This is shown below:

- The vector addition of both vectors is given below:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \vec{a}+\vec{b}=-3i-5j+(i+4j) \\ \text{ Add only magnitudes of the same component} \\ \vec{a}+\vec{b}=-3i+i-5j+4j \\ \\ \therefore\vec{a}+\vec{b}=-2i-j \end{gathered}[/tex]

- This implies that the vector addition of both vectors extends from the origin (0,0) to the point (-2, -1)

- This is depicted below:

It takes 56 seconds for the object to reach the ground. b. The object is 56 feet above the ground initially. c. The object reaches its maximum height after 56 seconds.

Answers

we have the equation

h(t) = -16t^2 +56

Part a. How long will it take for the object to reach the water?

when the object reach teh water h(t)=0

so

For h(t)=0

solve for t

0=-16t^2+56

16t^2=56

t^2=56/16

t^2=3.5

t=(+/-)1.87

therefore

answer part a is t=1.87 sec

Remember that the time can not be negative

Part b. How will you find this characteristic?

because if the object reach the water is when the height is zero (sea level is the zero)

Part c. What is the meaning of the 56 in the equation h(t) = -16t^2 + 56?

answer is

b. The object is 56 feet above the ground initially.
