What Is The Recursive And Explicit Formula Of The Geometric Sequence?2,5, 12.5, 31.25, 78, 125, ...

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Option (2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given geometric sequence is,

2, 5, 12.5, 31.25, 78.125......

First term = a₁ = 2

Common ratio of the sequence = r = [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex]

                                                          = 2.5

Recursive formula of a geometric sequence is given by,

[tex]a_n=a_{n-1}(r)[/tex]

Here, [tex]a_n=[/tex] nth term of the sequence

[tex]a_{n-1}=[/tex] (n - 1)th term

r = common ratio

Therefore, recursive formula for the given sequence will be,

[tex]a_1=2[/tex]

[tex]a_n=a_{n-1}(2.5)[/tex]

Explicit formula of a geometric sequence is given by,

[tex]a_n=a_1(r)^{n-1}[/tex]

Therefore, explicit formula of the sequence will be,

[tex]a_n=2(2.5)^{n-1}[/tex]

Option (2) will be the correct option.

Johnny wants to buy a set of drums that cost $2000, it requires a 15% down payment. The remainder plus an additional finance charge is paid back on a monthly basis of 25 months. the monthly payment is $80. What is the finance charge.

Answers

Answer: The finance charge = $ 300

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: cost of drums = $ 2000

Down payment = 15% of 2000

= 0.15 x 2000

= $300

Total installments = (Number of months) x (Monthly charge)

= 25 x $ 80

= $ 2000

Finance charge  = Down payment + Total installments - cost of drums

= $ (300+2000-2000)

= $ 300

Hence, the finance charge = $ 300

Part A: Explain how you will solve the pair of equations by substitution or elimination. Show the first step you would use. (4 points) Write the solution. (2 points)

Part B: If the two equations are graphed, at what point will the lines representing the two equations intrsect? Explain your answer. (4 points)

Your answer:

Answers

Answer:

(6,21)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

y = 2x + 9 .....(1)

y = 4x − 3 .....(2)

From equations (1) and (2),

2x + 9 = 4x − 3

Taking variables both sides and constants to another side.

9+3 = 4x-2x

12 = 2x

x = 6

Put the value of x in equation (1).

y = 2(6) + 9

y = 12 + 9

y = 21

The solution of the given equations is x = 6 and y = 21. If we graph them, they will intersect at (6,21).

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Square base= 14cm

Height= 19cm

Slant height = 21cm

Area of all four triangular surfaces= 1/2B*H*4

Area of all four triangular surfaces= 1/2*14*19*4

Area of all four triangular surfaces= 1/2*1064

Area of all four triangular surfaces=532 cm^2

Area of square base= 14^2

Area of square base=196cm^2

Total surface area= Area of all four triangular surfaces+Area of square base

Total surface area=532+196

If the quadrilateral below is a trapezoid, find the missing measures.

PLEASE HELP

Answers

Answer:

101°

46°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of angle C and angle F should be 180°as they are parallel.

Hence, angle C ;

Angle C + angle F = 180°

Angle C + 79° = 180°

Angle C = 180° - 79°

Angle C = 101°

Sum of angle in Trapezoid = 360°

Hence,

C + D + E + F = 360°

101° + 134° + E + 79° = 360°

314° + E = 360°

E = (360 - 314)°

E = 46°

Find the 69th term of the arithmetic sequence -13, -33, -53, ...​

Answers

Answer:

-1,373

Step-by-step explanation:

a69 = -13 + (69-1)(-20)

= -13+(68)(-20)

= -13 - 1,360

= -1,373

Answer:

-1373

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN :-

A.P. = -13 , -33 , -53 , ...

TO FIND :-

69th term of A.P.

FACTS TO KNOW BEFORE SOLVING :-

Lets say there's an A.P. whose :-

First term = aCommon Difference = dTotal number of terms = nnth term = aⁿ

Formula for finding nth term of A.P. = aⁿ = a + (n - 1)d

SOLUTION :-

According to the question ,

First term = -13Common difference = -33 - (-13) = -20Number of terms needed to find = 69

By using the formula for finding nth term ,

69th term of A.P. = -13 + (69 - 1)×(-20) = -13 + (-1360) = -1373

Problem Page Suppose we want to choose 2 letters, without replacement, from the 4 letters A, B, C, and D.

Answers

Note: Consider we need to find the possible number of ways to choose 2 letters, without replacement, from the 4 letters A, B, C, and D.

Given:

Number of letters = 4

Number of letters selected without replacement = 2

To find:

The total possible number of ways.

Solution:

We have 4 letters A, B, C and D.

So, the number of ways to select first letter is 4.

After selecting a letter the number of remaining letters is 3.

So, the number of ways to select second letter is 3.

Now, the total number of ways to select 2 letters, without replacement, from the 4 letters A, B, C, and D is:

[tex]4\times 3=12[/tex]

Therefore, the required number of ways is 12.

A basketball tosses a ball to a teammate. The ball reaches a maximum height of 11 feet 3 seconds after it was released. If the ball is thrown from a height of 6 feet, write a quadratic equation that represents the height of the ball as a function of time

Answers

Answer:

h = - 16t² + 49.67t + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression for the height of the basketball, h at time, t is given by

h - h₀ = u₀t - 1/2gt² where h₀ = initial height of ball = 6 feet, h = maximum height of ball = 11 feet, u₀ = initial vertical velocity of ball, t = time taken to reach maximum height = 3 s and g = acceleration due to gravity =9.8 m/s².

We need to find u₀ from u = u₀ -

So, h - h₀ = u₀t - 1/2gt²

h - h₀ + 1/2gt² = u₀t

u₀ = (h - h₀)/t + 1/2gt

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

u₀ = (h - h₀)/t + 1/2gt

u₀ = (11 ft - 6 ft)/3s + 1/2 × 32 ft/s² × 3 s

u₀ = 5 ft/3s + 1/2 × 96 ft/s

u₀ = 1.67 ft/s + 48 ft/s

u₀ = 49.67 ft/s

Using h - h₀ = u₀t - 1/2gt² where h is the height of the basketball at time, t

h = u₀t - 1/2gt² + h₀

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

h = u₀t - 1/2gt² + h₀

h = (49.67ft/s)t - 1/2(32 ft/s²)t² + 6 ft

h = 49.67t - 16t² + 6

h = - 16t² + 49.67t + 6

Answers

Answer:

(a) V = 51200 cubic cm

(b) V' = 38912 cubic cm

(c) V'' = V - V' = 12288 cubic cm

Step-by-step explanation:

side of the square base, s = 32 cm

height, h = 50 cm

height of cake mixture, h' = 38 cm

(a) The capacity of the tin is the volume.  

Capacity of tin, V =  s x s x h = 32 x 32 x 50 = 51200 cubic cm

(b) The volume of the cake mixture is

V' =  s x s x h'

V' = 32 x 32 x 38 = 38912 cubic cm

(c) Volume of unoccupied space is

V'' = V - V' = 51200 - 38912 = 12288 cubic cm
