Just plug in 2 for p. 3*2 - 2 = 6-2 = 4

F(p)=3(2)-2
f(p)= 6-2
f(p)= 4
Just substitute my dude :)

If the balance at the end of eight years on an investment of $630 that has been invested at a rate of 9% is $1,083.60, how much

Contact [7]

The interest is $453.60.

The total amount includes principal + interest. The principal was 630 and the total amount was 1083.60.
1083.60 - 630 = 453.60.

0/1 For positive integer n, n? = n! · (n − 1)! · … · 1! And n# = n? · (n − 1)? · … · 1?. What is the value of 4# · 3# · 2# · 1#?

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

331776

Step-by-step explanation:

Since n? = n! · (n − 1)! · … · 1! And n# = n? · (n − 1)? · … · 1?

Then 4# = 4? · (4 − 1)? · (4 − 2)?· 1?

= 4? · 3? · 2?· 1?

Now, n? = n! · (n − 1)! · … · 1!

So, 4? = 4! · (4 − 1)! · (4 − 2)! · 1! = 4! · 3! · 2! · 1! = 288

Thus, 3? = 3! · (3 − 1)! · 1! = 3! · 2! · 1! = 12

Also, 2? = 2! · (2 − 1)! · 1! = 2! · 1! · 1! = 2

and 1? = 1! · (1 − 1)! · 1! = 1! · 0! · 1! = 1

So, 4# = 4? · 3? · 2?· 1? = 288 × 12 × 2 × 1 = 6912

We now find 3#

3# = 3? · (3 − 1)? · 1? = 3? · 2?· 1?

Now, n? = n! · (n − 1)! · … · 1!

So, 3? = 3! · (3 − 1)! · 1! = 3! · 2! · 1! = 12

Thus, 2? = 2! · (2 − 1)! · 1! = 2! · 1! · 1! = 2

and, 1? = 1! · (1 − 1)! · 1! = 1! · 0! · 1! = 1

So, 3# = 3? · 2?· 1? = 12 × 2 × 1 = 24

We now find 2#

2# = 2? · (2 − 1)? · 1? = 2? · 1?· 1?

Now, n? = n! · (n − 1)! · … · 1!

So, 2? = 2! · (2 − 1)! · 1! = 2! · 1! · 1! = 2

1? = 1! · (1 − 1)! · 1! = 1! · 0! · 1! = 1

So, 2# = 2?· 1? = 2 × 1 = 2

We now find 1#

1# = 1? · 1? = 1? · 1?

Now, n? = n! · (n − 1)! · … · 1!

So, 1? = 1! · (1 − 1)! · 1! = 1! · 0! · 1! = 1

And, 1# = 1? · 1? = 1 × 1 = 1

So, 4# · 3# · 2# · 1#? = 6912 · 24 · 2 · 1? = 331776

A pail hold 6 3/4 gallon of water. how much is this in cups

Ber [7]

There are 16 cups in 1 gallon so you would have to turn the denominator in the fraction into a 16 meaning you would multiply by 4 (because 4 goes into 16, 4 times). Your new fraction is 12/16. now you do 6 gallons*16 cups and you get 96 cups. Then you add the fraction onto 96 and you would be adding 12. Your final answer is 108 cups in 6 3/4 gallons

Given the sequence 1/2 ; 4 ; 1/4 ; 7 ; 1/8 ; 10;.. calculate the sum of 50 terms

miv72 [106K]

Hint :-

Break the given sequence into two parts .
Notice the terms at gap of one term beginning from the first term .They are like $\dfrac{1}{2},\dfrac{1}{4},\dfrac{1}{8}$ . Next term is obtained by multiplying half to the previous term .
Notice the terms beginning from 2nd term , $4,7,10,13$ . Next term is obtained by adding 3 to the previous term .

Solution :- 

We need to find out the sum of 50 terms of the given sequence . After splitting the given sequence ,

$\implies S_1 = \dfrac{1}{2},\dfrac{1}{4},\dfrac{1}{8}$ .

We can see that this is in Geometric Progression where 1/2 is the common ratio . Calculating the sum of 25 terms , we have ,

$\implies S_1 = a\dfrac{1-r^n}{1-r} \\\\\implies S_1 = \dfrac{1}{2}\left[ \dfrac{1-\bigg(\dfrac{1}{2}\bigg)^{25}}{1-\dfrac{1}{2}}\right]$

Notice the term $\dfrac{1}{2^{25}}$ will be too small , so we can neglect it and take its approximation as 0 .

$\implies S_1\approx \cancel{ \dfrac{1}{2} } \left[ \dfrac{1-0}{\cancel{\dfrac{1}{2} }}\right]$

$\\\implies \boxed{ S_1 \approx 1 }$

$\rule{200}2$

Now the second sequence is in Arithmetic Progression , with common difference = 3 .

$\implies S_2=\dfrac{n}{2}[2a + (n-1)d]$

Substitute ,

$\implies S_2=\dfrac{25}{2}[2(4) + (25-1)3] =\boxed{ 908}$

Hence sum = 908 + 1 = 909
