The square of a whole number 'n' lies between 80 and 150. Find all possible values for 'n'.

1 answer:

5 0

The square of a whole number n lies between 80 and 150, so n lies between √80 and √150.

$\sqrt{80} \approx 8.9 \\
\sqrt{150} \approx 12.2$

n is a whole number and lies between 8.9 and 12.2, so n can be 9, 10, 11, or 12.

The possible values for n are 9, 10, 11, and 12.

The design of a digital box camera maximizes the volume while keeping the sum of the dimensions at 6 inches. If the length must

love history [14]

H = x, L = 1.5 x;
L + W + H = 6
x + 1.5 x + W = 6
W = 6 - 2.5 x
Dimensions of the camera in terms of x:
x, 1.5 x, 6 - 2.5 x.
V = L x W x H
V = x * 1.5 x * ( 6 - 2.5 x ) = 9 x² - 3.75 x³
V ` = 18 x - 11.25 x² ( V max is when V` = 0 )
18 x - 11.25 x² = 0
x ( 18 - 11.25 x ) = 0
11.25 x = 18
x = 18 : 11.25
x = 1.6
The dimensions are:
L = 2.4
W = 2.0
H = 1.6

What is the explicit rule for the sequence? −3, 0,3,6,9,... Enter your answer in the box.

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

aₙ = 3n - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given sequence:

−3, 0,3,6,9,...

This is AP with:

The first tern a₁ = - 3
Common difference d = 3

The rule for the nth term of the sequence is:

aₙ = a₁ + (n - 1)d

Substitute values:

aₙ = -3 + (n - 1)(3) =
-3 + 3n - 3 =
3n - 6
