What is the 50th term of the sequence that begins with -6, 0, 6, 12...

Mathematics

vazorg [7]3 years ago

Answer:

The 50th term is 288.

Step-by-step explanation:

A sequence that each term is related with the prior by a sum of a constant ratio is called a arithmetic progression, the sequence in this problem is one of those. In order to calculate the nth term of a setence like that we need to use the following formula:

an = a1 + (n-1)*r

Where an is the nth term, a1 is the first term, n is the position of the term in the sequence and r is the ratio between the numbers. In this case:

a50 = -6 + (50 - 1)*6

a50 = -6 + 49*6

a50 = -6 + 294

a50 = 288

The 50th term is 288.

Use numerals instead of words. If necessary, use / for the fraction bar(s). A parabola is given by the equation y = x2 + 4x + 4.

So I'll do the graph as usual:</span></span><span> </span><span>The vertex is obviously at the origin, but I need to "show" this "algebraically" by rearranging the given equation into the conics form:<span>x2 = 4y</span> Copyright © Elizabeth Stapel 2010-2011 All Rights Reserved<span>
(x – 0)2 = 4(y – 0)</span><span>This rearrangement "shows" that the vertex is at </span><span>(h, k) = (0, 0)</span><span>. The axis of symmetry is the vertical line right through the vertex: </span><span>x = 0</span>. (I can always check my graph, if I'm not sure about this.) The focus is "p" units from the vertex. Since the focus is "inside" the parabola and since this is a "right side up" graph, the focus has to be above the vertex.<span>From the conics form of the equation, shown above, I look at what's multiplied on the unsquaredpart and see that </span><span>4p = 4</span><span>, so </span><span>p = 1</span><span>.

(y + 5)2 = –1(x – 0)</span><span>This tells me that </span><span>4p = –1</span><span>, so </span><span>p = –1/4</span><span>.

y</span>2 + 6y + 9 – 15 = –12x + 9</span> <span>

(y + 3)2 = –12x + 9 + 15 = –12x + 24</span> <span>
(y + 3)2 = –12(x – 2)</span> <span>
(y – (–3))2 = 4(–3)(x – 2)</span></span><span><span>Then the vertex is at </span><span>(h, k) = (2, –3)</span><span> and the value of </span>p<span> is </span>–3<span>.

Your hourly salary increased from $14 to $29. What is the percent increase in your<br> salary?
V125BC [204]

Answer:

107%

Step-by-step explanation:

$14 to $29

Original number/start = $14

End number = $29

Increase = $29 - $14 = $15

% increase = Increase ÷ Original Number × 100

Substitute in known values

% increase = 15 ÷ 14 × 100

Divide

% increase = 1.07 × 100

Multiply

% increase = 107%

The percentage increase is 107%

Hope this helps :)

Carla has already written 10 pages of a novel. she plans to write 15 additional pages per month until she is finished. write and
grin007 [14]
Linear Equation: 15m+10=w
15 pages written for every month for 5 months plus the 10 pages she has already written is equal to the total number of pages written in 5 months.
m= number months written. In this case, it is 5 months.
w= number of pages written in 5 months
15(5)+10=w
75+10=w
85 pages written=w
Carla will have written 85 pages in 5 months.
