Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A.

–2; –250; –156,250

Step-by-step explanation:

A(1) = -2 x 5(1) - 1 = -11

A(4) = -2 x 5(4) -1 = -41

A(8) = -2 x 5(8) -1 = -81

...............................................................................................................................................

an=a1(r)^(n-1)

a1=first term

r=common ratio

n=which term

so

an=-2(5)^(n-1)

first term is -2

4th term is subsitue 4 for n

a4=-2(5)^(4-1)

a4=-2(5)^3

a4=-2(125)

a4=-250

4th term is -250

--------------------------

8th term

a8=-2(5)^(8-1)

a8=-2(5)^7

a8=-2(78125)

a8=-156250

8th term is -156250

...............................................................................................................................................

A(1)=2*5^1-1=2*5^0=2*1=2

a(4)=2*5^4-1=2*5^3=2*125=250  

a(8)=2*5^8-1=2*5^7=2*78,125=156,250

...............................................................................................................................................

2, 250, 156, 250

Whose perfect square should be added to the sum of the greatest three digit prime number and the smallest two-digit prime number, so that the resultant number is perfect square of 32? ​pls give me ans pls pls pls

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y is the required number.

a/c to question,

y² + greatest three digit prime number + smallest two digit prime number = 32²

we know, greatest three digit prime number = 997

smallest two digit prime number = 11

now, y² + 997 + 11 = 32²

or, y² + 1008 = 1024

or, y² = 1024 - 1008

or, y² = 16

or, y = 4

hence, required number number is one digit even number e.g., y = 4

The average rate of change of f(x) in the closed interval [ a, b ] is

[tex]\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}[/tex]

Here [ a, b ] = [ 1, 3 ] , then

f(3) = 18 ← value of y when x = 3

Answers

Answer:

3300cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

30cm+30cm=60cm 60cm is the lengh of the whole joint structure.We will put it in the equation as "a".

heigh stays the same(10cm) because the pieces are not stacked one on top of the other.They are joined on their sides.We will put it as "c".

Widht also stays the same.its 15 cm and we will put it as letter "b".

So

a=60cm

b=15cm

c=10cm

We need to calculate the surface area of the entire joint structure.

1.First thing to do is to calculate the top part which is:

a*b=15*60=900cm²

2.The bootom side is the same 900cm².

3.The front side is:

a*c=60*10=600cm²

4.The back side is the same as front so it is 600cm².

5.The left side is:

c*b=10*15=150cm²

6.The right side is the same as the left and it is 150cm²

Now we just add it up.

S(surface)=900*2+600*2+150*2=3300cm²

If you want the whole exercise in one equation:

S=2*(a*b)+2*(a*c)+2*(b*c)

Answers

Answer:

15 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the coordinates of point B are (x, y).

Since the rotation is clockwise the angle measure between OA and OB is -60° (IV quadrant).

x = 15 cos (-60°) = 7.5y = 15 sin (-60°) = -12.99

The distance between A and B is:

AB = [tex]\sqrt{(15-7.5)^2+(0+12.99)^2} = \sqrt{225}[/tex] = 15 unitsAnother solution

Since OA = OB = 15 units and AOB is 60° angle the triangle OAB is equilateral. Hence AB is same as OA and OB, so AB = 15 units.

The sum of angles in a triangle is 180, so you add up the angles and set it equal to 180.

6c+5c+37=180
11c+37=180
11c=143
c=13

Then if you need the values of the angles, just substitute 13 for c.

Answer:

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = 16 - 7n

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a common difference between consecutive terms , that is

2 - 9 = - 5 - 2 = - 12 - (- 5) = - 7

This indicates the sequence is arithmetic with nth term

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Here a₁ = 9 and d = - 7 , then

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = 9 - 7(n - 1) = 9 - 7n + 7 = 16 - 7n

Draw the graphs of the pair of linear equations : x + 2y = 5 and 2x - 3y = -4 Also find the points where the lines meet the x - axis .

Answers

Answer:

(1, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation of the lines x + 2y = 5 and 2x - 3y = -4

First we need to make x the subject of the formulas

For x+2y = 5

x = 5 - 2y ... 1

For 2x - 3y = -4

2x = -4+3y

x = (-4+3y)/2 ... 2

Equate 1 and 2

5 - 2y =  (-4+3y)/2

2(5-2y) = -4+3y

10 - 4y = -4+3y

-4 -3y = -4-10

-7y = -14

y = 14/7

y = 2

Substitute y = 2 into 1

x = 5 = 2y

x = 5 - 2(2)

x = 5 - 4

x = 1

Hence the point where the lines meet will be at (1, 2)

When a sprinkler is installed in the ground, the spray of water goes up and falls in the pattern of a parabola. The height, in inches, of a spray of water is given by the equation h(x)=160x−16x2 where x is the number of feet away from the sprinkler head the spray is. What is the height of the spray 2 feet away from the sprinkler head?

Answers

Answer:

(1) 256 inches

(2) 5 feet

(3) 400 inches

(4) 10 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

(1) The function that gives the height in inches of the spray of water at a distance x from the sprinkler head is given as follows;

h(x) = 160·x - 16·x²

At x = 2 feet, we have;

h(2) = 160 × 2 - 16 × 2² = 256

Therefore, the height of the spray water at a horizontal distance of 2 feet from the sprinkler head h(2) = 256 inches

(2) The x-coordinate, [tex]x_{max}[/tex], of the maximum point of a parabola given in the form, y = a·x² + b·x + c is found using the following formula;

[tex]x_{max}[/tex] = -b/(2·a)

The x-coordinate, [tex]x_{max}[/tex], of the maximum point of the given equation of the parabola, h(x) = 160·x - 16·x², (a = -16, b = 160) is therefore;

[tex]x_{max}[/tex] = -160/(2 × (-16)) = 5

Therefore, the number of feet along the way, the function will reach maximum height, [tex]x_{max}[/tex] = 5 feet

(3) The function, h(x) = 160·x - 16·x², will reach maximum height, [tex]h_{max}[/tex], at x = 5, therefore;

[tex]h_{max}[/tex] =  h(5) = 160 × 5 - 16 × 5² = 400

The maximum height of the spray, [tex]h_{max}[/tex] = 400 inches

(4) The water is at ground level where h(x) = 0, therefore;

At ground level, h(x) = 0 = 160·x - 16·x²

160·x - 16·x² = 0

∴ 16·x × (10 - x) = 0

By zero product rule, we 16·x = 0, or (10 - x)  = 0, from which we have;

x = 0, or x = 10

The water is at ground level at x = 0 and x = 10 feet, therefore, the water will hit the ground again (the second time after leaving the sprinkler head at x = 0) at x = 10 feet.
