Write an equation that describes the nth term of the arithmetic sequence –2, –1.5, –1, –0.5, 0, 0.5, ….

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = 0.5n - 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Here a₁ = - 2 and d = a₂ - a₁ = - 1.5 - (- 2) = - 1.5 + 2 = 0.5 , then

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = - 2 + 0.5(n - 1) = - 2 + 0.5n - 0.5 = 0.5n - 2.5 ← explicit equation

What is the logarithmic formula 10000= 625/8*2^t ?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

     log(128) = t·log(2)

Step-by-step explanation:

You can take logarithms the way the formula is, or you can simplify it first.

As is

  log(10000) = log(625) -log(8) +t·log(2)

__

Simplified

  8·10000/625 = 2^t . . . . . multiply by 8/625

  128 = 2^t

  log(128) = t·log(2)

_____

Solution:

  t = log(128)/log(2) = 7

MONEY PRIZE FOR THE FIRST PERSON TO GET THIS RIGHT AT THE END OF THE PROBLEM LIST METHOD OF ONLINE PAYMENT YOU WANT!
Situation: You love to knit sweaters and you want to start a small business to make money from your talent. You want to do the math first to find out how long it will take for you to make a profit. You must pay a fixed fee of $90.00 to start the company up plus $15.00 for each sweater to pay for the yarn. You want to charge $30.00 for each sweater that you sell.

1. Write an equation for the cost of the company
Choose and define your variables in words:
x:
Equation: y:

2. Write an equation for the money made, INCOME (NOT PROFIT ALL INCOME), selling sweaters
Choose and define your variables in words:
x:
Equation: y:

After you have your equations:
-Find the cost and income when you sell 2 sweaters. (You should have two different answers because you had two different equations one for the INCOME and one for the COST!)

Hints: REMEMBER X is your independent variable so look at the independent number or thing about the problem and write it for x: . Also REMEMBER Y is your dependent variable so whatever your x is y will depend on it if X changes Y also changes look at the problem and ask yourself "What has an effect on what? and "What is effected by what?" This will help you answer the problem.

Answers

Answer:

1. y = 90x

x: the amount of companies to start

y: The total amount it will cost.

2. y = 30x

y: the total income

x: the amount of sweaters being sold.

The answer to the last question(I think would be):

cost:  $30

income: $60

as:

equation to find cost = y = -15x

equation to find income = y = 30x

Answers

After talking with you here are two different options I think you are trying to ask:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If you are talking about: [tex](\frac{-12}{3}) ^{3}[/tex]

Answer: -62

Explanation:

PEMDAS tells us we need to do the exponent first:

-12³ = (-12)³ = -1728

The parentheses are important so you cube the negative sign as well!

3³ = 27

-1728 / 27 = -62

                           [tex](\frac{-12}{3}) ^{3}[/tex] simplified is -62

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If you are talking about (-1[tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex])³

Answer: -[tex]\frac{125}{27}[/tex]

Explanation:

First, let us turn -1 and two thirds into a mixed number:

Ignoring the negative for now, we can 1 times 3 is 3. 3 plus 2 is 5. 5/3 is 5/3. Adding in the negative we get [tex]-\frac{5}{3}[/tex]

To cube it we must do:

([tex]-\frac{5}{3}[/tex])([tex]-\frac{5}{3}[/tex])([tex]-\frac{5}{3}[/tex])

3 times 3 (9) times 3 is 27

5 times 5 (25) times 5 is 125

So we have 125/27

For the negative, we have three - - -

Two cancel each other out, and we are left with one (-) so our answer is negative

                           (-1[tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex])³ simplifed is -[tex]\frac{125}{27}[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

A

5x² – 2x = x(5x - 2)

B

x² – 12x – 45 = x² + 3x - 15x - 45 = x(x + 3) - 15(x + 3) = (x + 3)(x - 15)

C

2x² - x - 15 =  2x² + 5x - 6x - 15 = x(2x + 5) - 3(2x + 5) = (2x + 5)(x - 3)

D

9x² - 16 = (3x)² - 4² = (3x + 4)(3x - 4)​

Given :-

A.5x^2 – 2x = B.x^2 – 12x – 45 = C.2x^2-x-15 D.9x^2-16

To Find :-

Factorised form into two binomials .

Answer :-

A) 5x² - 2x

= x ( 5x -2 )

B) x² - 12x -45

= x² -15x + 3x -45

= x(x -15) +3( x -15)

= (x-15) ( x +3)

C) 2x² - x -15

= 2x² +5x - 6x -15

= x(2x +5) -3(2x +5)

= (x-3)(2x+5)

D) 9x² -16

=(3x)² -4²

= (3x+4)(3x-4) [using a²-b² = (a+b)(a-b) ]

x + 2y = 9
5x – y = – 10

Answers

Answer:

(- 1, 5 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

x + 2y = 9 → (1)

5x - y = - 10 → (2)

Multiplying (2) by 2 and adding to (1) will eliminate the y- term

10x - 2y = - 20 → (3)

Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate y

11x + 0 = - 11

11x = - 11 ( divide both sides by 11 )

x = - 1

Substitute x = - 1 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y

Substituting into (1)

- 1 + 2y = 9 ( add 1 to both sides )

2y = 10 ( divide both sides by 2 )

y = 5

solution is (- 1, 5 )

x + 2y = 9 x + 2y = 9

=====》

5x - y = - 10 (×2) 10x - 2y = - 20

+____________

11x + 0 = - 11

11x = - 11

x = - 1

Thus :

- 1 + 2y = 9

Add both sides 1

2y - 1 + 1 = 9 + 1

2y = 10

Divide both sides by 2

2y ÷ 2 = 10 ÷ 2

y = 5

Forman1911THE MATCHThere never was a time when the world was without fire, but there was a time when men did not know how to kindle fire; and after they learned how to kindle one, it was a long, long time before they learned how to kindle one easily. In these days we can kindle a fire without any trouble, because we can easily get a match; but we must remember that the match is one of the most wonderful things in the world, and that it took men thousands of years to learn how to make one. Let us learn the history of this familiar little object, the match.Fire was first given to man by nature itself. When a forest is set on fire by cinders from a neighboring volcano, or when a tree is set ablaze by a thunderbolt, we may say that nature strikes a match. In the early history of the world, nature had to kindle all the fires, for man by his own effort was unable to produce a spark. The first method, then, of getting fire for use was to light sticks of wood at a flame kindled by natureby a volcano, perhaps, or by a stroke of lightning. These firebrands were carried to the home and used in kindling the fires there. The fire secured in this way was carefully guarded and was kept burning as long as possible. But the flame, however faithfully watched, would sometimes be extinguished. A sudden gust of wind or a sudden shower would put it out. Then a new firebrand would have to be secured, and this often meant a long journey and a deal of trouble.In 1827, John Walker, a druggist in a small English town, tipped a splint with sulphur, chlorate of potash, and sulphid of antimony, and rubbed it on sandpaper, and it burst into flame. The druggist had discovered the first friction-chemical match, the kind we use to-day. It is called friction-chemical because it is made by mixing certain chemicals together and rubbing them. Although Walker's match did not require the bottle of acid, nevertheless it was not a good one. It could be lighted only by hard rubbing, and it sputtered and threw fire in all directions. In a few years, however, phosphorus was substituted on the tip for antimony, and the change worked wonders. The match could now be lighted with very little rubbing, and it was no longer necessary to have sandpaper upon which to rub it. It would ignite when rubbed on any dry surface, and there was no longer any sputtering. This was the phosphorus match, the match with which we are so familiar.In the last paragraph, what is the main point of the section that discusses the chemicals involved in match making?
