<span>In an explicit formula, n represents any term number and a(n) represents the value of the n-th term. Therefore, in order to find the fifth term, we simply solve for a(n) when n = 5. Plugging that value into the equation gives us a(5)=6(5)-4, or a(5) = 26. The fifth term is of the sequence is 26.</span>

Source of magnetic force - Nail

Source electric force - battery cell

<h3>What is an electromagnet?</h3>

We know that the electromagnet is a type of magnet whose magnetic property depends on the interaction of the magnetic material with an electric field. We can see in the image that the nail which serves as the magnetic material is connected to a cell which is the source of the given electric current.

It the follows that the nail above is the source of the magnetic force because the coils of wire while the battery cell is the source of the electrical force.

Plz help with this word problem

Well, this problem is best solved by setting up a system of two linear equations.

A linear equation can be defined 
y=mx+b
where 
b=initial value (when x=0), and
m=rate of increase or decrease.

In the given example, the x-axis represents hour, and the y-axis, number of cells.

Chemical #1 
initial value = b = 12000 cells
rate = m = -4000 / hr
The equation is therefore 
y1=-4000x+12000......................(1)

Similarly, for chemical #2
initial value = b = 6000 cells
rate = m = -3000 / hr
The equation is therefore
y2=-3000x+6000 .......................(2)

The time the two will have an equal sized colony would represent the solution of the system of equations (1) and (2), i.e. when  y1=y2
which means
-4000x+12000 = -3000x+6000
transpose and solve for x
4000x-3000x = 12000-6000
1000x=6000
x=6 hours.

At 6 hours from the start, 
y=-4000x+12000 = -4000*6+12000 = -24000+12000 = -12000 cells

So the solution is x=6, y=-12000, or (6,-12000)

Physical interpretation
Since cells cannot have a negative number, the two are actually equal before six hours, when they are both zero.
Case 1: y=0 when x=3
Case 2: y=0 when x=2

Therefore, after three hours, both trials will have zero cells.

You have to judge whether to give the mathematical solution (x=6,y=-12000) or the physical interpretation (x=3, y=0) as the answer.

Nadir saves $1 the first day of a month, $2 the second day, $4 the third day, and so on. He continues to double his savings each
zheka24 [161]

ANSWER

$16,384

EXPLANATION

From the question we have that,

Nadir saves $1 the first day of a month, $2 the second day, $4 the third day, and so on.

This forms a geometric sequence,

1,2,4,...

The first term of this sequence is

a = 1

The common ratio is

r =  \frac{2}{1}  =  \frac{4}{2}  = 2

The general term of a geometric sequence is given by the formula:

f(n) = a {r}^{n - 1}

To find the 15th term, we plug in a=1, r=2 and n=15.

f(15) = 1 {(2)}^{15 - 1}

f(15) =  {2}^{14}

f(15) = 16384

The amount he will save on the 15th day is $16,384
