Write a recursive formula and an explicit formula for the following arithmetic sequence.
11, 13, 15, 17, 19, ...
A recursive formula is a = INan=.
(Simplify your answers.)
An explicit formula is an =
(Simplify your answer.)
Answer:
Please check the explanation.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the sequence
11, 13, 15, 17, 19, ...
Determining the Recursive formula:
We know that a recursive formula is termed as a formula that specifies each term of the given sequence using the preceding terms.
From the given sequence it is clear that every term can be obtained by adding two to the previous term.
i.e. 13 = 11+2, 15 = 13+2, 17 = 15+2, 19 = 17+2
so
aₙ₊₁ = aₙ+2, for n ≥1
Therefore, a recursive formula is:
aₙ₊₁ = aₙ+2, for n ≥1Determining the Explicit formula:
Given the sequence
11, 13, 15, 17, 19, ...
An arithmetic sequence has a constant difference 'd' and is defined by
[tex]a_n=a_1+\left(n-1\right)d[/tex]
computing the differences of all the adjacent terms
[tex]3-11=2,\:\quad \:15-13=2,\:\quad \:17-15=2,\:\quad \:19-17=2[/tex]
The difference between all the adjacent terms is the same and equal to
[tex]d=2[/tex]
also
[tex]a_1=11[/tex]
so substituting [tex]d=2[/tex], [tex]a_1=11[/tex] in the nth terms
[tex]a_n=a_1+\left(n-1\right)d[/tex]
[tex]a_n=2\left(n-1\right)+11[/tex]
[tex]a_n=2n+9[/tex]
Therefore, the Explicit formula is:
[tex]a_n=2n+9[/tex]

Helllpp ASAP The sum of -14.3 and a number is positive. Identify a possible value for that
number. Explain your selection.
Answer: Any number larger than 14.3; one possible value is 20
Note how 20 + (-14.3) = 20-14.3 = 5.7 which is positive.
If we picked something smaller than 14.3, like say 10, then
10+(-14.3) = 10-14.3 = -4.3 which is negative.
----------------
When adding a positive to a negative, you basically subtract the two values. Then whatever the largest value is, that's the sign of your result. For 20+(-14.3), the positive 20 is larger in absolute value so the overall result is positive. On the other hand, the -14.3 is larger in magnitude compared to the 10, which is why 10+(-14.3) has a negative result.

What is the smallest initial velocity that is required to throw a stone 49 feet up on top of a silo?
Answer: the smallest initial velocity that is required to throw the stone is 56 ft/s
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that;
u = initial velocity
v = final velocity = 0
a = acceleration = -g = -32,
s = distance travelled = 49 feet
V² - u² = 2aS
we substitute
0² - u² = 2 × -32 × 49
0 - u² = -3136
u² = 3136
u = √3136
u = 56 ft/s
Therefore the smallest initial velocity that is required to throw the stone is 56 ft/s

A set of pencils sells for $1.75 and costs $0.40 to make. Twenty percent of the profit (the difference between the purchase price and the amount it costs to make) from each set of pencils goes to a school. If 500 sets are sold, what is the amount of money that will go to the school?
Answer:
$135
Step-by-step explanation:
If each set cost $0.40 to make and sells for $1.75, the profit for each pack is $1.35.
To get 20% of this you do the following: 1.35×0.20
20% of $1.35 is $0.27.
If 500 sets of pencil are sold and the school gets $0.27 from each pack sold, you would multiply $0.27 by 500, which would give you the answer $135.
Find the missing dimensions in the table. Write the dimensions in simplest form.
Parallelogram
Base
Height
Area
Answer/Step-by-step explanation:
Parallelogram A:
Area = 5x + 20
Base = x + 4
Height = h = ?
Area of Parallelogram = base * height
Plug in the values
5x + 20 = (x + 4) * h
Divide both sides by x + 4
[tex] \frac{5x + 20}{x + 4} = h [/tex]
[tex] \frac{5(x + 4)}{x + 4} = h [/tex]
[tex] 5 = h [/tex]
Height = 5
Parallelogram B:
Area = 8x - 24
Base = b
Height = 8
Area of Parallelogram = base * height
Plug in the values
8x - 24 = b * 8
Divide both sides by 8
[tex] \frac{8x + 24}{8} = b [/tex]
[tex] \frac{8(x + 3)}{8} = b [/tex]
[tex] x + 3 = b [/tex]
Base = x + 3
Parallelogram C:
Area = 12x + 6y
Base = 6
Height = h = ?
Area of Parallelogram = base * height
Plug in the values
12x + 6y = 6 * h
Divide both sides by 6
[tex] \frac{12x + 6y}{6} = h [/tex]
[tex] \frac{6(2x + y)}{6} = h [/tex]
[tex] 2x + y = h [/tex]
Height = 2x + y

If the angles of a traingle are in the ratio 2:3:4 , Find Them
Answer:
40°, 60°, and 80°
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the sum of the angles of a triangle is equal to 180°.
We can use this equation to solve for these angles:
180 = 2x + 3x + 4x
180 = 9x
20 = x
Then substitute the solution in for x to solve for the angles:
2(20) = 40°
3(20) = 60°
4(20) = 80°
Therefore, the angles are 40°, 60°, and 80°.
At a school of 900 students, 20% have blue eyes. A student randomly selects 100 students and finds 17% of them have blue eyes. A second student takes another random sample of 90 students and finds 24% of them have blue eyes. Which of the following explains why there is a difference between the two percentages?
a. The sample sizes were both too small.
b.The samples were not random samples.
c. Both samples suffered from non-response bias.
d. Random error; the numbers were different due to variability inherent in sampling.
Answer:
d.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
In a school;
Population mean = 900
First student:
Sample size = 100
Sample proportion = 0.17
Second student:
Sample size = 90
Sample proportion = 0.24
The difference between the two percentages is a result of the random error because numbers were not the same as a result of variability inherent in sampling.
Rewrite the following equation as a function of x 2x^(4)-625-500=0
Choices are below. Will give 15 points for this.
Answer:
Option (D) is true.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equation
25x⁴ - 625y - 500 = 0
solving in terms of y as a function of x
[tex]25x^4\:-\:625y\:-\:500\:=\:0[/tex]
Step 1: Add -25x⁴ to both sides
[tex]25x^4\:-\:625y\:-\:500\:+\:\left(-25x^4\right)=0+\left(-25x^4\right)[/tex]
[tex]-625y-500=-25x^4[/tex]
Step 2: Add 500 to both sides
[tex]-625y-500\:+500=-25x^4\:+500[/tex]
[tex]-625y=-25x^4\:+500[/tex]
Step 3: Divide both sides by -625
[tex]\frac{-625y}{-625}=\frac{\left(-25x^4\:+500\right)}{-625}[/tex]
[tex]\:\:y=\:\frac{1}{25}x^4-\frac{4}{5}[/tex]
Therefore,
[tex]\:f\left(x\right)=\:\frac{1}{25}x^4-\frac{4}{5}[/tex]
Thus, option (D) is true.

On a typical day, the snow on Pike Mountain melts at a rate modeled by the function
M(t), given by M(t)=π/6sin(πt/12)
A snow maker adds snow at a rate modeled by the function S, given by
S(t)=0.006t^2−0.12t+0.87
Both M and S have units in inches per hour and t is measured in hours for 0≤t≤6. At time t = 0, the mountain has 40 inches of snow.
a. How much snow will melt during the 6 hour period? Indicate units of measure.
b. Write an expression for I(t), the total number of inches of snow at any time t.
c. Find the rate of change of the total amount of snow at time t = 3.
Answer:
a. 2in
b. [tex]l(t)=0.002t^{3}-0.06t^{2}+0.87t+2cos(\frac{\pi}{12}t)+38[/tex]
c. l'(3)=0.1938 in/hr
Step-by-step explanation:
a.
In part a, the problem is asking us to find how much snow will melt during the 6 hour period. In order to do so we need to take the M(t) function and integrate it in the given period of time, so we get:
[tex]\int\limits^6_0 {\frac{\pi}{6}sin(\frac{\pi}{12}t)} \, dt[/tex]
So now we solve:
[tex]\frac{\pi}{6}\int\limits^6_0 {sin(\frac{\pi}{12}t)} \, dt[/tex]
this is a known integral, so we get:
[tex]\frac{\pi}{6}[-\frac{12}{\pi}cos(\frac{\pi}{12}t)]^{6}_{0}[/tex]
we can simplify this so we get:
[tex]-2[cos(\frac{\pi}{12}t)]^{6}_{0}[\tex]
[tex]-2[cos(\frac{\pi}{12}(6))-cos(\frac{\pi}{12}(0))][/tex]
[tex]-2[cos(\frac{\pi}{2})-cos(0)][/tex]
[tex]-2[0-1][/tex]
2 in
b)
For part b they want us to write an expression for l(t), the total number of inches of snow at any time t.
in order to do so we need to find an expression for the rate of change of snow. A snowmaker is adding some snow while another amountn of snow is melting, so this rate of change is found by subtracting the two functions, so we get:
l'(t)=S(t)-M(t)
so:
[tex]l(t)=\int {(0.006t^{2}-0.12t+0.87-\frac{\pi}{6}sin(\frac{\pi}{12}t))} \, dt[/tex]
so we integrate this to get:
[tex]l(t)=\frac{0.006}{3}t^{3}-\frac{0.12}{2}t^{2}+0.87t+2cos(\frac{\pi}{12}t)+C[/tex]
and we can simplify this:
[tex]l(t)=0.002t^{3}-0.006t^{2}+0.87t+2cos(\frac{\pi}{12}t)+C[/tex]
so now we need to find what C is equal to, we can use the fact that l(0)=40in so we get:
[tex]40=0.002(0)^{3}-0.006(0)^{2}+0.87(0)+2cos(\frac{\pi}{12}(0))+C[/tex]
which yields:
40=2+C
so
C=40-2
C=38
So the final function is:
[tex]l(t)=0.002t^{3}-0.06t^{2}+0.87t+2cos(\frac{\pi}{12}t)+38[/tex]
c)
for part c we need to find the rate of change of the total amount of snow at time t=3, so in this case we can use the equation we found previously:
l'(t)=S(t)-M(t)
[tex]l'(t)=(0.006t^{2}-0.12t+0.87-\frac{\pi}{6}sin(\frac{\pi}{12}t))[/tex]
and substitute t=3
[tex]l'(3)=(0.006(3)^{2}-0.12(3)+0.87-\frac{\pi}{6}sin(\frac{\pi}{12}(3)))[/tex]
which yields:
l'(t)=0.1938 in/hr
