Consider we need to find f(n).
Given:
Achilles ordered a pizza with 16 slices.
Every hour, he ate half of the remaining slices.
To find:
The function f(n) that is the number of slices Achilles ate in the hour since he got home.
Solution:
Initial number of slices = 16
Every hour, he ate half of the remaining slices. So, the number slices Achilles ate in the hour since he got home are:
8, 4, 2, 1, ...
It is a geometric sequence with first term 8 and common ratio [tex]\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex].
The explicit formula for a geometric sequence is:
[tex]f(n)=ar^{n-1}[/tex]
Where, a is the first term and r is the common ratio.
Substituting [tex]a=8,r=\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex], we get
[tex]f(n)=8\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^{n-1}[/tex]
Therefore, the function f(n) that is the number of slices Achilles ate in the hour since he got home is [tex]f(n)=8\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^{n-1}[/tex].

5x^2-45=0
Step-by-step explanation:
5x²-45=05x²=45x²=9x=√9x=3hope it helps.
Answer:
x=±√9 or x= 3, x=-3
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem requires us to find the x.
So we must isolate the variable, as so-
[tex]5x^2-45=0\\5x^2=45[/tex] (add 45 to both sides)
Now we can divide both sides by -
[tex]5x^2=45\\x^2=9[/tex]
Now we must square root both sides to find the root of x.
[tex]\sqrt{x^2} =\sqrt{9}[/tex]
x=±√9
or x= 3, x=-3

The number of texts Lee and John received each day for 8 days is shown. Lee's Text messages: (36, 31, 33, 35, 40, 29, 34, 34)
John's Text messages: (20, 15,45,5,23,22, 12, 18)
Lee's mean number of texts per day is 34 and John's mean number of texts per day is 20.
What statement involving MAD (mean absolute deviation) is true?
A. Lee has less variation in the number of text messages per day than John because Lee's MAD of texts per day is less than John's.
B. Lee has less variation in the number of text messages per day than John because Lee's MAD of texts per day is greater than John's.
C. Lee has greater variation in the number of text messages per day than John because Lee's MAD of texts per day is less than John's.
D. Lee has greater variation in the number of text messages per day than John because Lee's MAD of texts per day is greater than

Can anyone solve for x? Please.
Answer:
[tex] \frac{20}{24} = \frac{22}{x + 22} \\ 24 \times 22 = 20x + 20 \times 22 \\ 20x = 4 \times 22 \\ x = 88 \div 20 = 4.4[/tex]
In the figure above, ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral. What ja the value of x in degrees?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Remark
The diagram makes the line AB look like it is tilted a bit to the right. I'm going to assume that isn't right. AB extended is a straight line. ADC is supplementary to the 80o angle.
Solution
<ADC + 80o = 180 They are on the same straight line
<ADC = 180 - 80 Subtract 80 from both sides
<ADC = 100o
Opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilatral are supplementary
<ADC + <ABC = 180 Property of cyclic quadrilaterals
100 + <ABC = 180 Subtract 100 from both sides
<ABC = 80 degrees.
<x + <ABC = 180
<x + 80 = 180
<x = 100 degrees
Discussion
I cannot be sure what the arc at B is equal to. Is the arc = 80 o or is <ABC = 80. And it is unresolvable. My suggestion is that you ask your teacher.

Rewrite the logarithmic equation: log4x = 5 in exponential form.
Answer:
4^5=x
x= 1045
Step-by-step explanation:
4 to the power of 5 is 1045:)
Answer:
The base of the log is the same as the base of the exponential form and in our case the base is 4. The value of the exponent is what the log is equal too and in our case it is 5. We already know the base is 4 and we want to raise it to the exponent of 5 so we get

C. 62x+239=672
Step-by-step explanation:
X represents hours , which means 62 miles per hours equals 62x. Since Ed has already traveled 239 miles the opposite would be to add in order to subtract in the equation. 672 would be the equivalent of traveling 672 miles in x hours.

can you guys help me with this
Answer:
BD = 3.2.
CD = 2.4.
Step-by-step explanation:
By Pythagoras:
AB^2 = 3^2 + 4^2 = 25
AB = 5.
Triangles ADC and ACB are similar, so
AC / AB = AD / AC
3 / 5 = AD / 3
AD = 3*3/5
AD = 9/5 = 1.8
So BD = 5 - 1.8
= 3.2.
CD^2 = AC^2 - AD^2 (Pythagoras)
CD^2 = 3^2 - 1.8^2 = 5.76
CD = 2.4.
Find the variable in the figure. The diagram is not to scale.
Volume=16π
r = 2
The volume of a cone can be found using the following equation
[tex]V = r^2\frac{h}{3} \pi[/tex]
After putting in the information that we already know we get
[tex]16\pi = r^2\frac{12}{3} \pi \\16\pi = r^2(4) \pi \\4 = r^2\\ r = 2\\[/tex]
For proof's sake, we can try the equation again with the information we know
[tex]V = r^2\frac{h}{3} \pi \\V = 2^2\frac{12}{3} \pi \\V =4(4) \pi \\V = 16\pi[/tex]
