I have a word problem with a pattern. I just can't figure it out. - On the first night, Kim's mom gave her a nickel, on the seco

nd, she gave her five nickels, on the third, she gave her fourteen nickels and on the fourth night she gave her thirty nickels. Her mother asked Kim to figure out what she would receive on the tenth night. - I know this must be easy, but I just don't see it.

1st night Nickel - 5 pennies
2nd night 5 nickels - 25 pennies
3rd night 14 nickels - 70 pennies
4th night 30 nickels - 150 pennies
5th night 46 nickels
6th night 78 nickels
7th night 126 nickels
8th night 206 nickels
9th night 334 nickels
10th night 542 nickels

So her mother would give Kim 542 nickels on the 10th night.

Differences between number of nickels: 4, 9, 16

9 - 4 = 5
16 - 9 = 7

The pattern is Kim's mom gives her child two more nickels plus the amount of nickels she got the day before.

This was a little tricky so I don't know if this is right but I hope this helps you!

What is the general equation of a sine function with an amplitude of 6, a period of pi/4, and a horizontal shift of pi/2?
agasfer [191]

The general equation of the sine function y=f(x) is defined as

Y=AsinB(x-C)+D

where A is the Amplitude

B represents the frequency of the function with period equals 2\pi/B

C represents the Horizontal shift, For Phase shift= -C/B

D represents the Vertical shift.

The data given that the amplitude of the function A=6

B=\frac{2\pi}{Current\,  period}=\frac{2\pi}{\pi/4}=8

Vertical shift D= 0

Horizontal Shift C= \pi/2

Now plug in \neq A=6, B=8\,  and \, C=\pi/2 in the general equation of sine function, we get

y=6\sin8(x-\pi/2)+0\\y=6\sin 8(x-\pi/2))

Pleasee help!!!!<br> 20 points
Usimov [2.4K]

The function with the same end behavior of f(x) is the last option:

g(x) = (-\frac{1}{3} )*x

<h3>Which function has the same end behavior of f(x)?</h3>

By looking at the graph, we can see that the end behavior of f(x) is:

as x → ∞; f(x) → -∞

as x → -∞; f(x) → ∞

Then we just want a function that depends linearly with x and that has a negative coefficient.

The correct option is the last one:

g(x) = (-\frac{1}{3} )*x

Where clearly, when x tends to infinity the function tends to negative infinity, and when x tends to negative infinity, the function tends to infinity.

Below are two parallel lines with a third line intersecting them.
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

  x° = 131°

Step-by-step explanation:

The two marked angles are on opposite sides of the transversal, so they are called "alternate" angles. They are both between the parallel lines, so they are called "interior" angles.

In this geometry, <em>alternate interior</em> angles are congruent. They have the same measure. x° = 131°.

Find the coordinates of point B on AC such that AB is 1/4 of AC
kvasek [131]

Find the vertical and horizontal difference between the two given points:

Horizontal  is the Y values: 4 - -4 = 4+4 = 8

Vertical is the X values 7 - -1 = 7+1 = 8

Multiply the changes by the ratio:

Now copy the dot on A 2 places to the left and down 2 places and the dot lands on point (5,2)

8 * 1/4 = 2
