Which sequence is generated by the function f(n + 1) = f(n) – 2 for f(1) = 10?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: The sequence generated is 10, 8, 6, 4, 2, ...

This sequence is arithmetic with starting term 10 and common difference -2. This means we add -2 to each term to get the next one (same as subtracting 2 from each term). This common difference is directly connected to the -2 from the recursive rule f(n+1) = f(n)-2

Whatever the nth term f(n) is, we subtract off 2 to get f(n)-2 to get the f(n+1) term, which is right after the nth term.

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(1)=10

n=1

f(1+1)=f(1)-2

f(2)=10-2=8

n=2

f(2+1)=f(2)-2

f(3)=8-2=6

n=3

f(3+1)=f(3)-2

f(4)=6-2=4

so sequence is 10,8,6,4,...

What is the vertex of the graph of y = x2 + 4X?
O (-2, -12)
O (-2,-8)
O(-2,-6)
O (-2,-4)

Answers

Answer:

vertex = (- 2, - 4 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a parabola in standard form

y = ax² + bx + c ( a ≠ 0 )

Then the x- coordinate of the vertex is

x = - [tex]\frac{b}{2a}[/tex]

y = x² + 4x ← is in standard form

with a = 1, b = 4, c = 0 , then

x = - [tex]\frac{4}{2}[/tex] = - 2

Substitute x = - 2 into the equation for corresponding value of y

y = (- 2)² + 4(- 2) = 4 - 8 = - 4

vertex = (- 2, - 4 )

Answer:

  (a) The function that is represented by the equation y=-10x+6 has a steeper slope and a greater y-intercept

Step-by-step explanation:

If we take the "steepness" of the slope to be the absolute value of the slope, then the line y=-10x +6 has a slope with a steepness of 10.

The line y -36 - 8(x -4) has a slope with a steepness of 8, so the first line is steeper.

The line y=-10x+6 has a y-intercept of 6. The line y-36 =8(x -4) has a y-intercept of 4, so the first line has a higher y-intercept.

The appropriate description of the two lines is ...

  The function that is represented by the equation y=-10x+6 has a steeper slope and a greater y-intercept

To find the area of the base, multiply 15 times 16 then divide by 2

Then multiply by 19 to find the volume of the shape

Step-by-step explanation:

The base is a triangle

The area of a triangle = base length times height divided by 2

The triangle has a base length of 16 and a height of 15

So to find the area of the base we multiply 15 times 16 and divide that by 2

The volume of a prism is equal to the area of the base times the length of the prism

The length of the prism is 19 so we would then multiply by 19

i

Step-by-step explanation:

Now, before you think I'm just stealing points, let me explain. The square root of a number is the number that, if you multiply it by itself, it equals that number. The square root of 4 is 2, because 2 * 2 = 4.

Also, a negative number times another negative number, is a positive number. -2 * -2 = 4

With both of those true, then what number could be multiplied by itself to equal a negative number? i.

. In an enlargement with scale factor 2, which of the following statements is not true?
A. Each length is multiplied by 2
B. Each angle remains the same
C. The shape of the figure does not change.
D. The size of the figure does not change

Answers

Answer:

option B , C , D

Step-by-step explanation:

Enlargemet is a rule which transfers an object into an object of the same form by enlarging its size in a given ration.

Remember

If k > 1 , the given object is enlarged. Since the scale fator (k) is 2 and it is greater than 1 the size of the figure enlarges . So according to this definition option B , c and d are incorrect.

only option A satisfies . So out of all these statements only option A is true.

formula :

(x , y) = (kx , ky)   ( k means scale factor)

here scale factor is multiplied to the coordinate x and y.

since the scale factor is 2 it means that the length or the value of both x and y coordinate is multiplied by 2.So, it is true . And rest are not true.

Given:

Two chords intersect each other inside the circle.

To find:

The value of x.

Solution:

According to intersecting chords theorem, if two chords intersect each other inside the circle, then the product of two segments of one chord is equal to  the product of two segments of second chord.

In the given circle,

[tex]AE\times CE=BE\times DE[/tex]

[tex](3x-11)\times (5x-4)=(x+2)\times (-x+17)[/tex]

[tex]15x^2-12x-55x+44=-x^2+17x-2x+34[/tex]

[tex]15x^2-67x+44+x^2-15x-34=0[/tex]

[tex]16x^2-82x+10=0[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2.

[tex]8x^2-41x+5=0[/tex]

Splitting the middle term, we get

[tex]8x^2-40x-x+5=0[/tex]

[tex]8x(x-5)-1(x-5)=0[/tex]

[tex](8x-1)(x-5)=0[/tex]

Using zero product property, we get

[tex](8x-1)=0[/tex] or [tex](x-5)=0[/tex]

[tex]x=\dfrac{1}{8}[/tex] or [tex]x=5[/tex]

For [tex]x=\dfrac{1}{8}[/tex], the side AE is negative. So, [tex]x=\dfrac{1}{8}[/tex] is not possible.

Therefore, the required solution is [tex]x=5[/tex].
