Answer:

  58

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of trees in a row that starts and ends with a rambutan tree is ...

  4n -3 . . . . for n rambutan trees

So, the number of rambutan trees that there can be in a row of 230 trees is ...

  4n -3 ≤ 230

  4n ≤ 233

  n ≤ 233/4 = 58 1/4

The largest possible number of rambutan trees in a row of 230 trees is 58.

_____

1 rambutan tree: R . . . n=1, tree count = 1

2 rambutan trees: RpppR . . . n=2, tree count = 5

3 rambutan trees: RpppRpppR . . . n=3, tree count = 9

The tree count is an arithmetic sequence with first term 1 and common difference 4. Then the n-th term of the sequence is ...

  tn = a1 +d(n -1) = 1 +4(n -1) = 4n -3

Term 58 is ...

  t58 = 4·58 -3 = 229

So, the row of trees might be ...

  RpppRppp ... RpppRpppRp . . . . with 58 R and 172 p.

Round 8,764 to the nearest hundred
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer: 8,800

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the hundredth place is 764 we will round up to 800

which will give you 8,800!

Tip: Rounding the number up only takes place if the last two digits in the number are 50 or above.

If not, Round down if the last two digits in the number are 49 or below.

IF the last digits are 00 no rounding takes place.

Which of the following would be the most logical first step to solving this
NikAS [45]

Answer:

D is correct option

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct option is D.

The standard quadratic equation is ax²+bx+c=0

Where a and b are coefficients and c is constant.

It means that constant are on the L.H.S and there is 0 on the right hand side.

Therefore to make it a quadratic equation first of all you have to add 11 at both sides so that the R.H.S becomes 0.

The given equation is:

2x2-x+ 2 = -11

If we add 11 on both sides the equation will be:

2x2-x+ 2 +11= -11+11

2x^2-x+13=0

Thus the correct option is D

You can further solve it by applying quadratic formula....

The smiths previously lived in a house that had 1450 sq ft of space. The sq ft of their new home is 3800 sq ft. What is the perc
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

162.1%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Size of previous living space = 1450 sq ft

Size of new living space = 3800 sq ft

% increase in living space ;

Increase in living space = 3800 - 1450 = 2350 sq feet

(Increase / previous size) * 100%

(2350 / 1450) * 100%

1.6206 * 100%

= 162.06%

= 162.1%

HELP!! I'm not sure what goes in the blank.
natta225 [31]

Answer:

10sin^{2} (β)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find this two ways, first by seeing in the step after it, cosines are canceled out. Since you already have 10sin^{2} (β) on the next step, you can assume that (since only the cosines changed and the cosine next ot the blank was removed), the value is 10sin^{2} (β).

You can also use double angle formulas from the previous step:

(sin(2β) = 2 sin(β) cos(β))and find that:

5 sin (2β) sin(β) = 5 * (2 sin(β) cos(β)) sin(β)) = (10 sin(β) sin(β)) cos(β) =

10sin^{2} (β) cos(β)

But since cos(β) is already present, we can see that the answer is 10sin^{2} (β)
