Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that (x² + 5)(x² - 5) are the factors of a difference of squares

a² - b² = (a + b)(a - b)

with a = x² and b = 5, hence

(x² + 5)(x² - 5) = (x²)² - 5² = $x^{4}$ - 25, thus

3( $x^{4}$ - 25) = 3 $x^{4}$ - 75

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer: <em>(1,5,7,10,11,15)</em>

To get the union of two sets of numbers, all you do is combine the numbers from least to greatest. If a number repeats in the 2 sets, you only put it once.

A principal of $2900 is invested at 4.25% interest, compounded annually. How much will the investment be worth after 7 years?

olga2289 [7]

Let S = Sum after 13 years

So = amount invested

t = time in years

i = annual interest rate = .0325

The S = So(1+i)t = $2,200(1.0325)13 = $3,334.21

Solve this problem please

The formula for depreciation is:

$y=x(1-r)^t$

Where x = Initial value,

y= Amount after depreciation.

r= Rate of depreciation,

t = time (in years)

According to given problem,

x = 1040, y= 944 and t = 12 months =1 year.

So, first step is to plug in these values in the above formula, So,

$944 = 1040(1-r)^1$

944 = 1040 (1 -r)

$\frac{944}{1040} =1-r$ Divide each sides by 1040.

0.907692308 =1 - r

0.907692308 - 1 = -r Subtract 1 from each sides.

-0.092307692 = -r

So, r = 0.09 or 9%.

Now plug in 0.09 in the above equation to get the depreciation equation. So,

$y = x (1- 0.09)^t$

So, $y = 0.91x^t$

b) To find the value of the bike after 5 months,

plug in t = 5 months= 5/12 = 0.41667 years in the above equation of depreciation.

So, $y= 1040 *(0.91)^{0.41667}$

y = 1040 * 0.961465659

y = 999.9242852

y = 1000 (Rounded to nearest integer).

Hence, the value of the bike after 5 months is $1000.

Gretchen has a set of blocks of heights 1, 2, and 4-centimeters. Imagine stacking the blocks one on top of the other to make a t

notsponge [240]

Answer:

$t_{n}$ = $t_{n-1}$ + $t_{n-2}$ + $t_{n-4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$t_{n}$ =multiple ways to climb a tower

When n = 1,

tower= 1 cm

$t_{1}$ = 1

When n = 2,

tower =2 cm

$t_{2}$ = 2

When n = 3,

tower = 3 cm

it can be build if we use three 1 cm blocks

$t_{3}$ = 3

When n = 4,

tower= 4 cm

it can be build if we use four 1 cm blocks

$t_{4}$ = 6

When n > 5

tower height > 4 cm

so we can use 1 cm, 2 cm and 4 cm blocks

so in that case if our last move is 1 cm block then $t_{n-1}$ will be

n —1 cm

if our last move is 2 cm block then $t_{n-2}$ will be

n —2 cm

if our last move is 4 cm block then $t_{n-4}$ will be

n —4 cm

$t_{n}$ = $t_{n-1}$ + $t_{n-2}$ + $t_{n-4}$
