Of course.

You can only say for sure that 1/4 of a whole thing is less than 1/3 of a whole thing
if the whole things are equal size.

If Marty's pizza was 1/3 bigger than Luis' pizza, then they both ate the same amount.
If Marty's was MORE than 1/3 bigger than Luis', then Marty ate more pizza.

Find the exact value of each expression, if it defined. ( if answer is undefined, enter undefined) tan (-1)

Triss [41]

Answer:

$tan(-1) \approx -0.02$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

$tan(-1)$

The tangent of -1 is defined, it's around -0.02.

The tangent is a trigonometric function with a period of $\pi$ , where each period is separated by a vertical asymptote which indicates that the function is not determined through all its domain, that's what the question refers to when it says "if is undefined, enter undefined".

However, at $x=-1$ , the tangent is determined, that means, there's no asymptote on that coordinate, that's why it has a "determined value", which is -0.02 approximately.

$tan(-1) \approx -0.02$

A sequence is constructed according to the following rule: its first term is 7, and each next term is one more than the sum of t

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the described rule, we have

$a_1=7\\ \\a_1^2=7^2=49\Rightarrow a_2=4+9+1=14\\ \\a_2^2=14^2=196\Rightarrow a_3=1+9+6+1=17\\ \\a_3^2=17^2=289\Rightarrow a_4=2+8+9+1=20\\ \\a_4^2=20^2=400\Rightarrow a_5=4+0+0+1=5\\ \\a_5^2=5^2=25\Rightarrow a_6=2+5+1=8\\ \\a_6^2=8^2=64\Rightarrow a_7=6+4+1=11\\ \\a_7^2=11^2=121\Rightarrow a_8=1+2+1+1=5\\ \\\text{and so on...}$
