Find a formula for the general term an of the sequence, assuming that the pattern of the first few terms continues. text({)1, 1/4, 1/16, 1/64, 1/256, ... text(})

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]T_n = \frac{1}{4^{n-1}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]({)1, 1/4, 1/16, 1/64, 1/256, ... (})[/tex]

Required

The general term

The given sequence is geometric.

So first, we calculate the common ratio (r)

[tex]r = T_2/T_1[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]r = 1/4 \div 1[/tex]

[tex]r = 1/4[/tex]

The function is then calculated using:

[tex]T_n =T_1 * r^{n-1}[/tex]

This gives

[tex]T_n =1 * 1/4^{n-1}[/tex]

[tex]T_n = \frac{1}{4^{n-1}}[/tex]

Mark draws one card from a standard deck of 52. He receives $ 0.30 for a heart, $ 0.55 for a queen and $ 0.90 for the queen of hearts. How much should he pay for one draw

Answers

Answer

$0.1346

Explanation:

Find probability of each card and the value of each card and then add them together.

Probability of getting a heart = 13/52

Price of one heart =$0.30

Pay for one heart = 13/52×0.30=$0.075

Probability of getting a queen =4/52

Price of one queen =$0.55

Pay for one queen =4/52×$0.55=$0.0423

Probability of getting a queen of hearts =1/52

Price of one queen =$0.90

Pay for one queen =1/52×$0.90=$0.0173

Therefore the pay for one draw= $0.075+$0.0423+$0.0173=$0.1346

Sarah invests £2000 for 2 years in a saving account. She earns 3% per annum in compound interest.

How much did Sarah have in her saving account after 2 years?

£

Use the formula:

A=P(1+r100)n

Where;

A = the amount of money accumulated after n years, including interest

P = the principal sum (the initial amount borrowed or invested)

r = the rate of interest (percentage)

n = the number of years the amount is borrowed or invested

Answers

Answer:

£2120.27

Step-by-step explanation:

A = P (1 + r100)

A = 2000 (1+ 0.03/365)^365(2)

A = 2000 ( 1.00008)^730

A = 2000 (1.060)

Answers

Answer:

57 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area of the yellow prism = front + back + right + left + top

✔️Area of the front = L * W

L = 4 cm

W = 3 cm

Area of the front = 4*3 = 12 cm²

✔️Area of the back = L * W

L = 4 cm

W = 3 cm

Area of the back = 4*3 = 12 cm²

✔️Area of the right face = L * W

L = 4 cm

W = 3 cm

Area of the right face = 4*3 = 12 cm²

✔️Area of the left face = L * W

L = 4 cm

W = 3 cm

Area of the left face = 4*3 = 12 cm²

✔️Area of the top = L * W

L = 3 cm

W = 3 cm

Area of the top = 3*3 = 9 cm²

✅Total = 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 + 9 = 57 cm²

Make a substitution to express the integrand as a rational function and then evaluate the integral. int_(25)^(81) sqrt(x)/(x-1) dx

Answers

Let y = √x, so that y ² = x and 2y dy = dx. Then the integral becomes

[tex]\displaystyle \int_{25}^{81} \frac{\sqrt x}{x-1}\,\mathrm dx = \int_{\sqrt{25}}^{\sqrt{81}} \frac y{y^2-1}(2y\,\mathrm dy) = 2 \int_5^9 \frac{y^2}{y^2-1}\,\mathrm dy[/tex]

Now,

y ² / (y ² - 1) = 1 + 1 / (y ² - 1) = 1 + 1/2 (1/(y - 1) - 1/(y + 1))

so integrating gives us

[tex]\displaystyle 2\int_5^9\frac{y^2}{y^2-1}\,\mathrm dy= \int_5^9\left(2+\frac1{y-1}-\frac1{y+1}\right)\,\mathrm dy \\\\= (2y+\ln|y-1|-\ln|y+1|)\bigg|_5^9 \\\\= \boxed{8+\ln\left(\dfrac65\right)}[/tex]

A ice cream shop sells 8 different flavors of ice cream with A choice of three different styles of calls how many different ice cream cones are possible if you select one ice cream flavor with one type of ice cream cone

Answers

Answer:   24

Explanation:

There are 8 different flavors and 3 types of cones. This means there are 8*3 = 24 different combos possible.

Imagine a table with 8 rows and 3 columns. Each row is a different flavor and each column is a different cone type. The table formed has 24 inner cells to represent a different combination of flavor + cone type. So that's why we multiplied those values earlier.

Note: This only works if you're only able to select one type of flavor.

In 1980, the average cost of a pack of cigarettes was $0.88. In 2000, the average cost was $5.31 per pack.

The average rate of change of the cost of a pack is 22 cents per year.

Another name for the average rate of change is slope.

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change of the cost of a pack ([tex]r[/tex]), in monetary units per year, is equal to the change in the average cost of a pack ([tex]\Delta c[/tex]), in monetary units, divided by the change in time ([tex]\Delta t[/tex]), in years. Then, the average rate of change is:

[tex]r = \frac{\$\,5.31-\$\,0.88}{2000-1980}[/tex]

The average rate of change of the cost of a pack is 22 cents per year.

Step-by-step explanation:

tan(1)tan(2)....tan(89)=?

Recall tan(90-x)=cot(x) and cot(x)tan(x)=1.

tan(89)=tan(90-1)=cot(1)

tan(88)=tan(90-2)=cot(2)

tan(87)=tan(90-3)=cot(3)

...

tan(46)=tan(90-44)=cot(44)

tan(45)=tan(90-45)=cot(45)

So we can replace the last half of the factors with cotangent of the angles in the first half.

The only one that doesn't get a partner is the exact middle factor which is tan(45).

So this is whar we have:

tan(1)tan(2)tan(3)....tan(45)....cot(3)cot(2)cot(1)

So you should see that cot(1)tan(1)=1 and cot(2)tan(2)=1 and so on....

So the product equals tan(45) and tan(45)=1 using unit circle.

2. The scale factor is 1/3, which means the length of the image of segment KL will be 1/3 times as long.

3. The scale factor is 3, which means the length of the image of segment KL will be 3 times as long.

4. The scale factor is 1/3, which means the length of the image of segment KL will be 3 times as long.

Answers

Answer:

3. The scale factor is 3, which means the length of the image of segment KL will be 3 times as long.

Step-by-step explanation:

Transformation is the movement of a point from its initial location to a new location. Types of transformation are rotation, translation, reflection and dilation.

Dilation is the increase or decrease in the size of a figure. If a point A(x, y) is dilated about the center of dilation located at O(a, b), the new point is at A'[k(x - a) + a, k(y - b) + b].

Quadrilateral KLMN has vertices at K(2, 1), L(-1, -5), M(6, -5) and N(6, 1). If it is dilated by 3, about the center M(6, -5), the new points are:

K' = (3(2 - 6) + 6, 3(1 - (-5)) + (-5)) = (-6, 13)

L' = (3(-1 - 6) + 6, 3(-5 - (-5)) + (-5)) = (-15, -5)

M' = (3(6 - 6) + 6, 3(-5 - (-5)) + (-5)) = (6, -5)

N' = (3(6 - 6) + 6, 3(1 - (-5)) + (-5)) = (6, 13)

Therefore the image of segment KL will be 3 times long.

Answers

Answer:

60 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

So we see there's a 90 degree angle and a 150 degree larger angle including it.

So to find out the part that the 150 degree large angle that's not a part of the 90 angle we would do: 150 - 90, and we get 60.

So the bottom right angle is 60 degrees.

Now since we have a straight line from the left to right horizontally, we know that one side has to equal 180 degrees. On the side which the x is on, we already have 2 angles: 90 and 30. 90 + 30 = 120.

Since a straight line equals 180, x + 120 has to equal 180.

So now we do simple algebra.

x + 120 = 180

x = 180 - 120

x = 60

So x is equal to 60 degrees.
