F(1) = 160 is given to us. We'll use it to find f(2)
f(n+1) = -2*f(n)
f(1+1) = -2*f(1) ... replace every n with 1
f(1+1) = -2*160 ... replace f(1) with 160
f(2) = -320

Now use f(2) to find f(3)
f(n+1) = -2*f(n)
f(2+1) = -2*f(2) ... replace every n with 2
f(3) = -2*(-320) ... replace f(2) with -320
f(3) = 640

Finally, use f(3) to find f(4)
f(n+1) = -2*f(n)
f(3+1) = -2*f(3) ... replace every n with 3
f(4) = -2*640 ... replace f(3) with 640
f(4) = -1280

Final Answer: -1280

Next-door neighbors Bob and Jim use hoses from both houses to fill Bob's swimming pool. They know that it takes 22 h using both
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

correct answer: Bob's hose required alone 33 hours and Jim's hose required alone 66 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Bob's hose time = 50% of Jim's hose time ⇒

⇒ Jim's hose time = 2 · Bob's hose time

Let be x  Bob's hose time and  2x Jim's hose time

The following equation will solve the problem:

1/x + 1/ 2x = 1/22  

The common denominator for both fractions is 2x, so we will multiply the first fraction by the number 2 and get:

2/2x + 1/2x = 1/22 ⇒ 3/2x = 1/22 ⇒ x = 3 · 22 / 2 ⇒ x = 3 · 11 = 33 hours

Bob's hose time x = 33 hours and

Jim's hose time 2x = 66 hours

God is with you!!!
