A store finds that the number of shirts sold increases each week. In the first week, only 15 shirts were sold. In the next week,

22 shirts were sold and in the third week 29 shirts were sold. The number of shirts sold each week represents an arithnetic sequence.
What is the explicit rule for the arithmetic seuquence that defines the number of shirts sold in week n?

Answer:

a_n=8+7n

Step-by-step explanation:

No. of T-Shirts sold in first week = 15

No. of T-Shirts sold in second week = 22

No. of T-Shirts sold in third week = 29

The number of shirts sold each week represents an arithmetic sequence.

15,22,29,....

So, a = first term = 15

d = common difference = 22-15= 29-22= 7

Formula of nth term :a_n=a+(n-1)d

a is the first term

d is the common difference

n is the number of term

Now substitute the values in the formula :

a_n=15+(n-1)7

a_n=15+7n-7

a_n=8+7n

Where n is the number of weeks

Hence the explicit rule for the arithmetic sequence that defines the number of shirts sold in week n is a_n=8+7n

Answer:

b) Take the current height, and add up 15.

c) y = 80x + 15

where y is the height of the water in the pool, in centimeters

where x is the time since the hose is in the pool, in hours

d) 180 = 80x + 15

165 = 80x

x = 165/80 = 2.0625 hours, which is also 2 hours and 3 minutes.

Find the derivative of f(x)= e^(4x) + e^-(4x)
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

f'(x)=4e^{4x} -4e^{-4x}

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this derivative, we will need to use the chain rule.

As there is a variable in the exponent we can use this formula:

f'(x)=u'e^u

In this case, u=4x and u=-4x

This means that u'=4 and u'=-4 respectively

This gives us f'(x)=4e^{4x} -4e^{-4x}

Answer:

Q matches to a and P matches to b

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a volume question so we can use the volume of a cylinder to see which one corresponds to what.  Volume of a cylinder is \pir^{2}h.  We know that the heights of the cylinders are the same since the diagram says so.  We also know pi is the same since thats a constant.  The only thing thats different is the radius (as you can see radius of P is bigger than Q).  If the radius of P is bigger than Q and all the other things are the same (height is the same and pi is the same), then that automatically means that P has more volume than Q.  More volume means more time to fill up.  Since Q has less volume, it will take less time to fill up.  So now we look at the graph.  A shows that the height of water increases at a faster rate than that of B.  This is because there is less volume in that container (less volume=less time to fill up).  Therefore a matches to Q and therefore b matches to P

3x+9=1x what’s the slope and intercept form
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

  this equation cannot be written in slope-intercept form

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is equivalent to ...

  2x +9 = 0 . . . . . subtract 1x

  x + 4.5 = 0 . . . . divide by 2

  x = -4.5 . . . . . . . the equation of a vertical line.

It has no y-intercept and its slope is undefined.
