Answer: The third term is -14

----------------------------------------------

Explanation:

First term = A(1) = 20, which is given

Second term
A(n) = A(n-1) - 17
A(2) = A(2-1) - 17
A(2) = A(1) - 17 .... note: second term = (first term) - 17
A(2) = 20 - 17
A(2) = 3

Third term
A(n) = A(n-1) - 17
A(3) = A(3-1) - 17
A(3) = A(2) - 17 ... note: third term = (second term) - 17
A(3) = 3 - 17
A(3) = -14

I don't get this pls help

Answer:

  d, e

Step-by-step explanation:

The applicable rules of exponents are ...

  (a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)

  a^-b = 1/a^b

__

In this case, it means the product is ...

  (6^1)(6^0)(6^-3) = 6^(1+0-3) = 6^-2 = 1/6^2 = 1/36

__

The 6 without an exponent is equivalent to 6^1, an exponent of 1.

The sum of the exponents is -2.

Add the exponents to simplify the expression.

The value of the expression is 1/36.

An equivalent is any expression that results in 6^-2. One such is (6^5)(6^-7).

__

Only the last two choices, d and e, apply.

The function f(t) = t2 + 4t − 14 represents a parabola. Part A: Rewrite the function in vertex form by completing the square. Sh
Cloud [144]

Answer:

A)  The vertex ( h , k) = ( -2 , -18)

B) The minimum value of the given function = - 18

C) The Axis of the symmetry for f(t) is y -axis

Step-by-step explanation:

A)

Given a parabola   f(t) = t² + 4 t − 14

                               f(t) =  t² + 2(2) t + (2)²-4− 14

                           f(t) = (t +2)² - 18

Let comparing  y = (x +2)² -18

                   (x +2)² = y + 18

                   (x-h))² = 4 a ( y - k))²

<em>The vertex ( h , k) = ( -2 , -18)</em>

B)

  Given a parabola   f(t) = t² + 4 t − 14

  Differentiating with respective to 't'

                                 f¹(t) = 2 t + 4

                                  f¹(t) = 2 t + 4 = 0

now                      t = \frac{-4}{2} = -2

Again Differentiating with respective to 't'

                    f^{ll} (t) = 2 (1) >0

f(x) has a minimum value at t = -2

Given f(t) = t² + 4 t − 14

         f( -2) = 4 + 4(-2) -14 = 4 -8 -14 = -18

The minimum value of the given function = - 18

C)

f(t) = (t +2)² - 18

Let comparing  y = (x +2)² -18

                   (x +2)² = y + 18

                   (x-h))² = 4 a ( y - k))²

The vertex ( h , k) = ( -2 , -18)

The Axis of the symmetry for f(t) is y -axis

Answer:

$337.5

Step-by-step explanation:

He would get $337.5 because if he gets $11.25 every hour you just multiply $11.25 by 30 hours.
