A company has made a rubber ball for $0. 02 per square foot. The company wants to spend a maximum of $1 each on a new ball.

The diameter of the new rubber ball, to the nearest foot, must be D =  4.0 ft (in the case of the maximum cost).

<h3>How to find the diameter of the ball?</h3>

Remember that for a sphere of diameter D, the surface area is:

A = 4*pi*(D/2)^2

In this case, the cost is $0.02 per square foot, and the company wants to expend (at maximum) $1 per ball, so first we need to solve:

$0.02*A = $1

A = $1/$0.02 = 50

So the surface of the ball must be 50 square feet.

Then we solve:

50ft^2 = 4*3.14*(D/2)^2

D = 2*√(50 ft^2/(4*3.14)) = 4.0 ft

Im solving variables i need to simplify -5x + 3 (x+5) = -3
victus00 [196]

Answer:

x=9

Step-by-step explanation:

Add similar elements: -5x+3x=-2x

-2x+15=-3

Subtract 15 from both sides

-2x + 15-15=-3-15

Simplify

-2x=-18

Divide both sides by -2

-21/-2 = -18/-2

Simplify

x=9

Can a math god help me out?
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

f(1)=70

f(n)=f(n-1)+6

Step-by-step explanation:

One is given the following function:

f(n)=64+6n

One is asked to evaluate the function for (f(1)), substitute (1) in place of (n), and simplify to evaluate:

f(1)=64+6(1)

f(1)=64+6

f(1)=70

A recursive formula is another method used to represent the formula of a sequence such that each term is expressed as a function of the last term in the sequence. In this case, one is asked to find the recursive formula of an arithmetic sequence: that is, a sequence of numbers where the difference between any two consecutive terms is constant. The following general formula is used to represent the recursive formula of an arithmetic sequence:

a_n=a_(_n_-_1_)+d

Where (a_n) is the evaluator term (a_(_n_-_1_)) represents the term before the evaluator term, and (d) represents the common difference (the result attained from subtracting two consecutive terms). In this case (and in the case for most arithmetic sequences), the common difference can be found in the standard formula of the function. It is the coefficient of the variable (n) or the input variable. Substitute this into the recursive formula, then rewrite the recursive formula such that it suits the needs of the given problem,

a_n=a_(_n_-_1_)+d

a_n=a_(_n_-_1_)+6

f(n)=f(n-1)+6
