ANSWER

$16,384

EXPLANATION

From the question we have that,

Nadir saves $1 the first day of a month, $2 the second day, $4 the third day, and so on.

This forms a geometric sequence,

1,2,4,...

The first term of this sequence is

a = 1

The common ratio is

r =  \frac{2}{1}  =  \frac{4}{2}  = 2

The general term of a geometric sequence is given by the formula:

f(n) = a {r}^{n - 1}

To find the 15th term, we plug in a=1, r=2 and n=15.

f(15) = 1 {(2)}^{15 - 1}

f(15) =  {2}^{14}

f(15) = 16384

The amount he will save on the 15th day is $16,384

Explain why all linear angle pairs must be supplementary, but all supplementary angles do not have to be linear pairs?
dimulka [17.4K]
Two angles are supplementary if their measures sum 180°.

Linear angle pairs are adjacent angles (they are together) and they form a straight angle, which is 180°. Therefore, they are supplementary.

But two angles may be separated and yet add 180°, then they are supplementary but are not linear angle pairs.

How do I solve this equation n^2=18n+40.
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

n = 20 or n = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for n over the real numbers:

n^2 = 18 n + 40

Subtract 18 n + 40 from both sides:

n^2 - 18 n - 40 = 0

The left hand side factors into a product with two terms:

(n - 20) (n + 2) = 0

Split into two equations:

n - 20 = 0 or n + 2 = 0

Add 20 to both sides:

n = 20 or n + 2 = 0

Subtract 2 from both sides:

Answer:  n = 20 or n = -2
