Short answer: I don't know, but that doesn't mean I can't give you something that you can decide for yourself.
y = 4*2^(2n - 2) is the pattern.
Go for broke. Try n = 4. You should get 256. Let's try it.
y = 4 * 2^(2*4 - 2)
y = 4 * 2^(8 - 2)
y = 4 * 2^6
y = 4 * 64
y = 256 yup it works.
The other end is just as important. Suppose n = 1
Then y = 4 * 2^(2*1 - 2) = 4 * 2^0 = 4*1 = 4 Both work.
If this formula is correct, we can abbreviate it to make your task easier.
y = 4 * 2^(2n - 2)
y = 2^2 * 2^(2n - 2)
y = 2^(2n - 2 + 2)
y = 2^(2n) Now try the two end points again.
n = 4
y = 2^(2*4)
y = 2^8
y = 256
n = 1
y = 2^(2*1)
y = 2^2
y = 4 which again checks.
so y = 2^(2n) I think is an exponential function.
Sorry my explanation is so long.
Answer:
option B
Step-by-step explanation:
Given in the question a complex fraction
<h3>Step1</h3>
To divide complex numbers, you must multiply by the conjugate. To find the conjugate of a complex number all you have to do is change the sign between the two terms in the denominator.
<h3>Step2</h3>
Distribute (or FOIL) in both the numerator and denominator to remove the parenthesis.
<h3>Step3</h3>
Simplify the powers of i, specifically remember that i² = –1.
<h3>Step4</h3>
<h3>Step5</h3>
simply
Answers:
- Choice B) y = (1/4)x
- The unit rate is <u> 3.89 </u> dollars per pound. It costs <u> 23.34 </u> dollars for a turkey that weighs 6 pounds.
=====================================================
Explanations:
- Direct proportional equations are always in the form y = kx, where k is some constant. In the case of choice B, we have k = 1/4. Visually, direct proportion equations are always straight lines and go through the origin.
- Divide $34.99 over 9 to get 34.99/9 = 3.88777 approximately. This rounds to 3.89, so it costs $3.89 per pound. That's the unit rate. Multiply this by 6 to get 6*3.89 = 23.34 which is the cost of the 6 pound turkey.
