Answer:

The answer is 20 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p represent the number of pounds.

UPS charges $7 for the first pound, and $0.20 for each additional pound.

FedEx charges $5 for the first pound and $0.30 for each additional pound.

To know the number of pounds it will take for UPS and FedEx to cost the same, we will equal both the equations.

=>

=>

=> p = 20

Hence, it will take 20 pounds to make both equal.

Find a general solution of y" + 4y = 0.
klio [65]

Answer:

y(x)=C_{1}cos2x+C_{2}sin(2x)

Step-by-step explanation:

It is a linear homogeneous differential equation with constant coefficients:

y" + 4y = 0

Its characteristic equation:

r^2+4=0

r1=2i

r2=-2i

We use these roots in order to find the general solution:

y(x)=C_{1}cos2x+C_{2}sin(2x)

The first four terms of a sequence are shown below: 9, 5, 1, â’3 Which of the following functions best defines this sequence? f(
matrenka [14]

The function that best defines this arithmetic sequence is:

  • f(n) = f(n - 1) - 4, f(1) = 9

<h3>What is an arithmetic sequence?</h3>
  • In an <em>arithmetic sequence,</em> the <u>difference between consecutive terms is always the same</u>, called common difference d.

The recursive function that defines the sequence is:

f(n) = f(n - 1) + d

f(1) = f_0

  • In which f_0 is the first term.

In this problem, the sequence is: {9, 5, 1, -3}

  • Each term is the previous term subtracted by 4, hence d = -4.
  • The first term is 9, hence f_0 = 9.

Hence, the function is:

  • f(n) = f(n - 1) - 4, f(1) = 9

Suppose Johnny invests $41,745 into an account, which has been earning interest for many years and he now has a total of $39,974
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

A negative number would be reasonable in the solution of the rate of the investment. It would be reasonable because Johnny started out with $41,745 in his account and ended up with $39,974 which means that the rate has to be negative.
