Nathan has 80 stamps in his collection. He adds 1 stamp to it today. Each day he plans to add twice the number of stamps as the

previous day. If he keeps adding stamps at this rate for n days, which recursive function represents the number of stamps he has on any day in the future? The recursive function is , starting at .

We start with 80 and we add 1 on the first day, 2 on the 2nd, 4 on the 3rd, etc.. Looking at the numbers being added 1 = 20 2 = 21 4 = 22 8 = 23 16 = 24 . . . We start with 80 and we add 2n to it where n represents the number of days into the iteration with n starting at 0 The function that shows how many stamps we have on any given day is D S = 80 + ∑ 2n Where D is the number of days we are into the iteration n=0 NOTE: This starts at day 0 which would be S = 80 + 20 = 80 + 1 = 81 stamps Example: To find how many stamps we have on D = 4 we would have S = 80+20+21+22+23+24 = 80+1+2+4+ 8+16 = 111 stamps

garri49 [273]

Answer:

y = -5

o = 35 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

If you replace y with -5, the statement  7y = 4y - 15 is correct. You get -35 =  -35. Hope this helped!

If the cost, C(x), for manufacturing x units of a certain product is given by
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

99 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost function for manufacturing <em>x</em> units of a certain product is:

C(x)=x^2-15x+34

We want to find the number of units manufactured at a cost of $8350. Therefore:

8350=x^2-15x+34

Subtract 8350 from both sides:

x^2-15x-8316=0

This equation can be a bit difficult to factor, if even possible, so we can use the quadratic formula:

\displaystyle x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

In this case, a = 1, b = -15, and c = -8316. Thus:

\displaystyle x=\frac{-(-15)\pm\sqrt{(-15)^2-4(1)(-8316)}}{2(1)}

Simplify:

\displaystyle x=\frac{15\pm\sqrt{33489}}{2}

Evaluate:

\displaystyle x=\frac{15\pm183}{2}

Therefore, our solutions are:

\displaystyle x=\frac{15+183}{2}=99\text{ and } x=\frac{15-183}{2}=-84

We cannot produce negative items, so we can ignore the second answer.

Therefore, for a cost of $8350, 99 items are being produced.

Solve 3 log 2x = 4. Round to the nearest thousandth if necessary.
dybincka [34]

Answer:

x is approximately 10.772

Step-by-step explanation:

3log(2x) = 4

To solve for x, we convert this log form to exponential form

If log x= a , then x= 10^a

3log(2x) = 4

to convert it into exponential form we make log alone

Divide by 3 on both sides

log(2x)= \frac{4}{3}

2x= 10^{\frac{4}{3}}

Then divide by 2 on both sides

so x= 10.772
