Answer:

Necesitamos agregar 40 libras del café La Finca

Step-by-step explanation:

Sea x el número de libras de café de La Finca a mezclar.

Entonces, la cantidad total de libras que obtendremos en la mezcla será (x + 80) libras.

Ahora trabajemos con los precios; Tenemos x libras de La Finca a $ 5 por libra, con 80 libras de café a $ 2 por libra para dar una mezcla de (x + 80) a $ 3 Así, sumaremos el precio de La Finca más la otra variante para llegar al costo de la nueva mezcla.

Matemáticamente;

5 (x) + 2 (80) = 3 (x + 80)

5x + 160 = 3x + 240

5x -3x = 240-160

2x = 80

x = 80/2 x = 40

Help asap please ----------------

Answer:

-1 Not in domain

0 In domain

1 In domain

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain for the square root function is all positive numbers including (0). The domain is the set of real numbers which when substituted into the function will produce a real result. While one can substitute a negative number into the square root function and get a result, however, the result will be imaginary. Therefore, the domain for the square root function is all positive numbers. It can simply be expressed with the following inequality:

x\geq0

Therefore, one can state the following about the given numbers. Evaluate if the number is greater than or equal to zero, if it is, then it is a part of the domain;

-1 => less than zero; Not in domain

0 => equal to zero; <em> </em>In domain

1  => greater than zero: In domain

Find the indicated sum of each sequence S8 of -2,-13,-24,-35
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

The sum of the arithmetic sequence is S_{8}=-324.

Step-by-step explanation:

A sequence is a set of numbers that are in order.

In an arithmetic sequence the difference between one term and the next is a constant.  In other words, we just add the same value each time infinitely.

If the first term of an arithmetic sequence is a_1 and the common difference is d, then the nth term of the sequence is given by:

                                                  a_{n}=a_{1}+(n-1)d

For the sequence

                                                -2,-13,-24,-35,...

The pattern is continued by adding -11 to the last number each time.

An arithmetic series is the sum of an arithmetic sequence.  We find the sum by adding the first, a_1 and last term, a_n, divide by 2 in order to get the mean of the two values and then multiply by the number of values, <em>n</em>

<em>                                                     </em>S_{n}=\frac{n}{2}(a_{1}+a_{n})<em />

The sum of the arithmetic sequence is

a_{8}=-2+(8-1)(-11)=-2-77=-79

S_{8}=\frac{8}{2}(-2-79})=4\left(-2-79\right)=4\left(-81\right)=-324

grigory [225]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  \text{c. }f(n)=3f(n-1);f(1)=2

Step-by-step explanation:

The first term is 2, so part of the recursive definition is ...

  f(1) = 2

The common ratio is 6/2 = 3, so each term is 3 times the previous one. That part of the recursive definition is ...

  f(n) = 3·f(n -1)

These two parts of the definition match choice C.
