Start with the basic function f(x)=2x. If you have an initial value of 1, then you end up with the following iterations. f(1)=2*

1=2 f^2(1)=2*2*1=4 f^3(1)=2*2*2*1=8 1. If you continue this pattern, what do you expect would happen to the numbers as the number of iterations grows? Check your result by conducting at least 10 iterations. 2. Repeat the process with an initial value of −1. What happens as the number of iterations grows?

<span>f(x)=2x

f(1)=2*1=2

f^2(1)=2*2*1=4

f^3(1) =2*2*2*1=8

1. If you continue this pattern, what do you expect would happen to the numbers as the number of iterations grows?

I expect the numbers continue growing multiplying each time by 2.

Check your result by conducting at least 10 iterations.

f^4(1) = f^3(1) * f(1) = 8*2 = 16

f^(5)(1) = f^4(1) * f(1) = 16 * 2 = 32

f^6 (1) = f^5 (1) * f(1) = 32 * 2 = 64

f^7 (1) = f^6 (1) * f(1) = 64 * 2 = 128

f^8 (1) = f^7 (1) * f(1) = 128 * 2 = 256

f^9 (1) = f^8 (1) * f(1) = 256 * 2 = 512

f^10 (1) = f^9 (1) * f(1) = 512 * 2 = 1024

2. Repeat the process with an initial value of −1. What happens as the number of iterations grows?

f(-1) = 2(-1) = - 2

f^2 (-1) = f(-1) * f(-1) = - 2 * - 2 = 4

f^3 (-1) = f^2 (-1) * f(-1) = 4 * (-2) = - 8

f^4 (-1) = f^3 (-1) * f(-1) = - 8 * (-2) = 16

f^5 (-1) = f^4 (-1) * f(-1) = 16 * (-2) = - 32

As you see the magnitude of the number increases, being multiplied by 2 each time, and the sign is aleternated, negative positive negative positive ...

1. Adam burns 850 calories when he runs for one hour, suppose he runs 3 hours .
LiRa [457]

Answer:

1. If Adam burns 850 calories per hour

850×3=2550 calories for 3 hours

2. If the original price is 200$ and the discount is 30%

We get:

200 × 30

Which can be written as

200×0.3

=60

So 30% of 200 is 60

now to calculate the new price

200-60=140$

The new price is 140$

This is what I am supposed to do, I’m confused on what to do on 3,4, and 5. PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!!!! 30 POINTS!!!!!
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

To calculate m use the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

3

Using (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 3, 6)

m = \frac{6-0}{-3-0} = \frac{6}{-3} = - 2

Since the line passes through the origin (0, 0) then y- intercept is 0

y = - 2x ← equation of line

4

let (x₁, y₁ ) = (6, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, 3)

m = \frac{3-0}{0-6} = \frac{3}{-6} = - \frac{1}{2}

note the line crosses the y- axis at (0, 3) ⇒ c = 3

y = - \frac{1}{2} x + 3 ← equation of line

5

let (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (-2, - 3)

m = \frac{-3-3}{-2-0} = \frac{-6}{-2} = 3

note the line crosses the y- axis at (0, 3) ⇒ c = 3

y = 3x + 3 ← equation of line
