a)
Let t represents number of years after 1900
so that means for 1900, value of t is 0
We are given point as (0,55)
and it says that life expectancy increases by 0.2
so that means slope,m=0.2
equation of line is y=mt +b
or y=0.2t +b
now we use point (0,55)
55 =0.2(0) +b
55 =0+b
55= b
so b=55
plug it back into the equation,we get
y=0.2t +55
b)
We are given y=73
so we plug it into the equation we got in part a and solve for t
y=0.2t +55
73 =0.2t +55
73-55 =0.2t
18 =0.2t
18/0.2 =t
90 =t
so t=90
This means the birth year =1900+t =1900+90 =1990
Answer: 7 × ( 3^n - 1 )
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a geometric progression which has its nth term to be
Tn = ar^n- 1. Now from the question given, the sequence are 7, 21, 63, 189. This is an example of a finite sequence, To find the common ratio, you divide the second term by the first term. So
r = 21/7
= 3. , a = 7
Now to find the nth term put the values in the formula above.
Tn =ar^n-1
= 7(3)^n - 1)
= 7 × ( 3^n - 1 ).
Note, it is not 21^n - 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
Here is a helpful method I taught my students in my mini lesson...
For you to remember, 22= 4, and 32= 9. Hence the answer to the root of 8 lies between the numbers 2 and 3. However, since the square of 3 equals to 9 which is larger than 8, the root 8 value lies in between the number 2.8 and 2.9.
If you drove for 425 miles at 60 mph, you would get there in 7 hours and 8-ish minutes. 425 divided by 60 is 7.08333333333333.
Answer:
b = 12.6
Step-by-step explanation:
a*2 + b*2 = c*2
6*2 + b*2 = 14*2
36 + b*2 = 196
Subtract 36 from both sides
36 + b*2 = 196
-36 -36
b*2 = 160
Find the square root of both
b = 12.64911064 or 12.6
