<span>Let x = amt of water evaporated :.05(50) = .08(50-x) 2.5 = 4 - .08x .08x = 4 - 2.5 .08x = 1.5 x = 18.75 lb of water evaporated : ; Check; amt of salt remains the same, only the percentage is different, right? .05(50) = .08(50-18.75) .05(50) = .08(31.25) 2.5 = 2.5</span>

Find first 4 terms and the 10th term of each question. 1)n2+3 2) 2n2
irina [24]

Answer:

1) 4, 7, 12 and 19

Tenth term = 103

2) 2, 8, 18, 32

Tenth term =200

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the nth term of the sequence

1) f(n)= n²+3

When n = 1

f(1) = 1²+3

f(1) = 4

When n = 2

f(2) = 2²+3

f(2) =4+3

f(2) = 7

When n = 3

f(3) = 3²+3

f(3) = 9+3

f(3)=12

When n =4

f(4) = 4²+3

f(4) = 16+3

f(4) = 19

The first four terms are 4, 7, 12 and 19

f(10)= 10²+3

f(10) = 103

Tenth term is 103

2) f(n) = 2n²

When n = 1

f(1) = 2(1)²

f(1) = 2

When n = 2

f(2) = 2(2)²

f(2) = 2(4)

f(2) = 8

When n= 3

f(3)= 2(3)²

f(3) = 2(9)

f(3) = 18

When n= 4

f(4) = 2(4)²

f(4) = 2(16)

f(4) =32

The first four terms are 2, 8, 18, 32

f(10) = 2(10)²

f(10) =2(100)

f(20) = 200

The tenth term is 200

if you subtract 12 from my number and multiply the difference by -6 the result is -90 what is my number
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

n must be 27

Step-by-step explanation:

Let this number be x.  Then -6(n - 12) = -90.

Dividing both sides by -6 yields n - 12 = 15.

Add 12 to both sides.

Then n must be 27.

Check:  subtract 12 from 27; this yields 15.  Now multiply this result by -6.  The result is -90, which was expected.

A parallel circuit consists of two capacitor c1=10mF and c2=15mF what is the total Capacitance
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

C = 25 mF

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Two capacitors with capacitances 10mF and 15mF are connected in parallel.

We need to find the total capacitance of the capacitors.

For a parallel combination, the equivalent capacitance is given by :

C_P=C_1+C_2

Substituting the values,

C_P=10+15\\\\=25\ mF

So, the total capacitance of the combination of capacitors is 25 mF.
