Given the following recurrence relation: An=(−2)An−1, with A0=(−1)

Mathematics
1 answer:
kirill [66]3 years ago
4 0
Technically you could answer this one by one, by substituting n with 1, 2, 3, 4, then 5. Like here:
A1=(-2)A1-1
=(-2)A0, then substituting A0 with -1...
=(-2)(-1)
Which would mean A1=2. Then..
A2=(-2)A2-1
A2=(-2)A1
A2=(-2)(2)
Which would mean A2=-4.
By repeating this process you'd eventually get A4..
A5=(-2)A4
if you did the steps right you'd get that A4 is -16..
A5=(-2)(-16).
Then simplify to get your answer.

What is the solution to the following system of equations?
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

(0, -6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following systems of linear equations;

3x - 2y = 12 ...... equation 1

16x - 4y = 24 ........ equation 2

We would solve for the solution using the elimination method;

Multiplying eqn 1 by 2, we have;

2 * (3x - 2y = 12)

6x - 4y = 24

16x - 4y = 24

Subtracting the two equations, we have;

(6x - 16x) + (-4y -[-4y]) = (24 - 24)

-10x - 0 = 0

-10x = 0

x = -0/10 = 0

Next, we would find the value of y;

3x - 2y = 12

3(0) - 2y = 12

0 - 2y = 12

-2y = 12

y = -12/2

y = -6

Check:

3x - 2y = 12

3(0) - 2(-6) = 12

0 - (-12) = 12

12 = 12

Multiply out and simplify to obtain a minimum sum-of-products boolean expression:
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

As per the question, we need to convert product of sum into sum of product,

Given:

(A' +B+C')(A'+C'+D)(B'+D'),

At first, we will solve to parenthesis,

= (A'+C'+BD) (B'+D')

As per the Rule, (A+B)(A+C) = A+BC, In our case if we assume X = A'+C', then,

(A' +B+C')(A'+C'+D) = (A'+C'+B)(A'+C'+D) = (A'+C'+BD)

Now,  

= (A'+C'+BD) (B'+D') = A'B' + A'D' + C'B' +C'D' +BDB' +BDD"

As we know that AA' =  0, it mean

=A'B'+A'D'+C'B'+C'D'+D*0+B0

=A'B'+A'D'+C'B'+C'D'               as B * 0 and D*0 = 0

Finally, minimum sum of product boolean expression is

A''B'+A'D'+C'B'+C'D'

=

The cost per hour of running an assembly line in a
nlexa [21]

Answer:

the minimum production level is costing $800 (0.8×$1000) per hour for 2000 (2×1000) items produced per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

if there is no mistake in the problem description, I read the following function :

C(x) = y = 0.3x² - 1.2x + 2

I don't know if you learned this already, but to find the extreme values of a function you need to build the first derivative of the function y' and find its solutions for y'=0.

the first derivative of C(x) is

0.6x - 1.2 = y'

0.6x - 1.2 = 0

0.6x = 1.2

x = 2

C(2) = 0.3×2² - 1.2×2 + 2 = 0.3×4 - 2.4 + 2 = 1.2-2.4+2 = 0.8

so, the minimum production level is costing $800 (0.8×$1000) per hour for 2000 (2×1000) items produced per hour.
