A sequence has a common ratio of Three-halves and f(5) = 81. Which explicit formula represents the sequence?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]f(n) = \frac{32}{3}(\frac{3}{2})^n[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]r = \frac{3}{2}[/tex]

[tex]f(5) = 81[/tex]

Required

The geometric sequence

A geometric sequence is represented as:

[tex]f(n) = ar^{n-1}[/tex]

Replace n with 5

[tex]f(5) = ar^{5-1}[/tex]

[tex]f(5) = ar^4[/tex]

Substitute values for f(5) and r

[tex]81 = a* (\frac{3}{2})^4[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]81 = a* \frac{81}{16}[/tex]

Make a the subject

[tex]a = \frac{81 * 16}{81}[/tex]

[tex]a = 16[/tex]

So, the explicit function is:

[tex]f(n) = ar^{n-1}[/tex]

[tex]f(n) = 16 * (\frac{3}{2})^{n-1}[/tex]

Split

[tex]f(n) = 16 * (\frac{3}{2})^n \div (\frac{3}{2})[/tex]

Convert to multiplication

[tex]f(n) = 16 * (\frac{3}{2})^n * \frac{2}{3}[/tex]

[tex]f(n) = \frac{32}{3}(\frac{3}{2})^n[/tex]

Answer 2

Answer:

f(x) = 16*(3/2)^(x-1)

A kiddie pool holds 161 gallons of water. One hose can fill the pool in 3 hours while an-
other takes only 2 hours. How long will it take for the pool to be filled if both hoses are
used?

Answers

The first hose pumps out water at a rate of

(161 gal)/(3 h) = 161/3 gal/h

The second hose fills the pool at a rate of

(161 gal)/(2 h) = 161/2 gal/h

Working together, they can fill the pool at a rate of

(161/3 + 161/2) gal/h = 805/6 gal/h

so that it would take

(161 gal) / (805/6 gal/h) = 161×6/805 h = 6/5 h = 1.2 h = 1 h 12 min

to fill the pool.

24 cars pass through an intersection each minute while the traffic light is green. In addition, 6 cars pass through the intersection
while the light is yellow. If 84 cars pass through
the intersection during one light cycle (one green light and one yellow light), how long was the green light?

Answers

Answer:

3.25 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

3.25 minutes per green light x 24 = 78

the yellow light is a given, hence 6 cars pass through

78 + 6 = 84 cars

if cos7x-cos8x/1+2cos5x=cos(ax)-cos(bx),where a,b are positive integers, then a²+b²=??

pls help! :(​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]hope \: its \: helful[/tex]

if cos7x - cos8x/1 + 2cos5x = cos(ax) - cos(bx), where a, b are positive integers, then a²+b²= 100.

The given equation is:

cos7x - cos8x/1 + 2cos5x = cos(ax) - cos(bx)

The LHS can be expanded as follows:

cos7x - cos8x/1 + 2cos5x = (2*cos4x*sin3x)/(2*cos2x) = sin3x

The RHS can be expanded as follows:

cos(ax) - cos(bx) = -2sin((a + b)/2)*sin((a - b)/2)

For the given equation to be true, the following must be true:

sin3x = -2sin((a + b)/2)*sin((a - b)/2)

3x = 180(a + b)/2

3x = 180(a - b)/2

Solving for a and b, we get a=6 and b=3.

Therefore, a² + b² = 6² + 3²=100.

Does (3, 3) make the equation y = 5x true?

Answers

Answer:

y = 5x

In the coordinate (3, 3), the first number is the x value and the second number is the y value.

So, does 3 = 5(3).

The answer is no, so this coordinate does not make the equation true.

Let me know if this helps!

Answer: No, the given point does not make the equation true.

===========================================================

Explanation:

There are three different ways to approach this.

One way is to plug x = 3 into the equation to find that

y = 5x

y = 5*3

y = 15

But that doesn't match up with y = 3 from the point (3,3). So we see that (3,3) is not a solution to y = 5x.

------

Or another method we could do is plug x = 3 and y = 3 to find a contradiction

y = 5x

3 = 5*3

3 = 15

The contradiction being that 3 on the left side doesn't match with 15 on the right side. The false equation at the end means y = 5x is false for (x,y) = (3,3), and therefore this point is not a solution to y = 5x.

------

The third method involves graphing the line y = 5x. You can see that (3,3) is not on the line, which visually confirms the results of the previous two sections. So for a point to be a solution, it must be on the line.

Express the function f(x) =3x^2-6x-18 in the form a(x + h)^2=k, where a, h and k are constants.Hence state the :
(i) the minimum value of f(x).
(ii) the value of x for which f (x) is a minimum

Answers

Answer:

The minimum value of f(x) is -21 and it occurs at x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) =3x^2-6x-18

Factor out the greatest common factor out of the first two terms

f(x) =3(x^2-2x)-18

Complete the square

-2x/2 =-1  (-1)^2 = 1

Add 1  (But remember the 3 out front so we are really adding 3  so we need to subtract 3 to remain balanced)

f(x) = 3(x^2 -2x+1) -3 -18

f(x) = 3(x-1)^2 -21

This is vertex form

f(x) = a(x-h)^2 +k  where (h,k) is the vertex and a is a constant

The vertex is (1,-21)  

Since a > 0 this opens upward and the vertex is a minimum

The minimum value of f(x) is -21 and it occurs at x = 1

All Real Number greater than 0 or

Step-by-step explanation:

The range is all possible y values of a function. We can tell a range by looking at the lowest y vaule then going to the highest possible y value.

Look at the graph. There is a open circle at y=0. So this means we are not going to include 0 in our function. The graph approaches f(x) to positive Infinity so our highest y value is Infinity.

So we know that the function y values cannot be zero and it must be positive. So our range is

Find the first term and the common difference of the arithmetic sequence whose 6th term is 30 and 12th term
is 54.

Answers

Answer:

10 and 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The first term is a, common difference is d.

The 6th term:

a + 5d = 30

The 12th term:

a + 11d = 54

Solve the system by elimination:

11d - 5d = 54 - 306d = 24d = 4

Find a:

a + 5*4 = 30a + 20 = 30a = 10

Answer:

Given :-

6th term = 30

12th term = 54

To Find :-

First term

Common difference

Solution :-

We know that

[tex] \sf \: a_{n} = a + (n - 1)d[/tex]

For 6th term

[tex] \sf \: 30 = a + (6 - 1)d[/tex]

[tex] \sf \: 30 = a + 5d[/tex]

For 12th term

[tex]\sf \: a_{n} = a + (n - 1)d[/tex]

[tex] \sf \: 54 = a + (12 - 1)d[/tex]

[tex] \sf \: 54 = a + 11d[/tex]

On subtracting both

[tex] \sf \: 54 - 30 = a + 11d - (a + 5d)[/tex]

[tex] \sf \: 54 - 30 = a + 11d - a - 5d[/tex]

[tex] \sf \: 24 = 6d[/tex]

[tex] \sf \: \dfrac{24}{6} = d[/tex]

[tex] \sf \: 4 = d[/tex]

Now

Using 2

[tex] \sf \: 54 = a + 11d[/tex]

[tex] \sf \: 54 = a + 11(4)[/tex]

[tex] \sf \: 54 = a + 44[/tex]

[tex] \sf \: 54 - 44 = a[/tex]

[tex] \sf \: 10 = a[/tex]

Solve (x + 3)2 – 5 = 0 using the quadratic formula.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

(x+3)² -5 =0 , use the formula (a+b) ² = a²+b²+2ab

x²+9 +6x -5 =0 , combine like terms

x²+6x +4 =0, use the quadratic formula x = (-b±√b²-4ac)/2a

x= (-6 ±√6²-4*1*4)/2*1

x= (-6 ± √36-16) /2

x= (-6±√20)/2

x=(-6 +2√5)/2 and x=( -6-2√5) /2, factor 2 in the numerator and simplify

x= -3 +√5 and x= -3 -√5
