1 1. Find the x-intercepts for y= 2(x - 7)(x+2)?

Mathematics
1 answer:
givi [52]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

b.) (7,0) and (-2,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the x-intercept, substitute 0 for y and solve for x:

0=2(x-7)

Divide both sides by 2:

\frac{0}{2}=\frac{2(x-7)}{2}

0=x-7

Add 7 to both sides to isolate x:

0+7=x-7+7\\7=x

The x-intercept for y=2(x-7) is 7 at point (7,0).

0=(x+2)

Remove parentheses:

0=x+2

Subtract 2 from both sides:

0-2=x+2-2

-2=x\\x=-2

The x-intercept for y=(x+2) is -2 at point (-2,0).

Finito.

The dot product will have you multiply the corresponding coordinates and add up the products

v dot w = (6*(-7)) + (7*5) + (-3*2)
v dot w = -42 + 35 - 6
v dot w = -7 - 6
v dot w = -13

Prove for any positive integer n, n^3 +11n is a multiple of 6
suter [353]

There are probably other ways to approach this, but I'll focus on a proof by induction.

The base case is that n = 1. Plugging this into the expression gets us

n^3+11n = 1^3+11(1) = 1+11 = 12

which is a multiple of 6. So that takes care of the base case.

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

Now for the inductive step, which is often a tricky thing to grasp if you're not used to it. I recommend keeping at practice to get better familiar with these types of proofs.

The idea is this: assume that k^3+11k is a multiple of 6 for some integer k > 1

Based on that assumption, we need to prove that (k+1)^3+11(k+1) is also a multiple of 6. Note how I've replaced every k with k+1. This is the next value up after k.

If we can show that the (k+1)th case works, based on the assumption, then we've effectively wrapped up the inductive proof. Think of it like a chain of dominoes. One knocks over the other to take care of every case (aka every positive integer n)

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

Let's do a bit of algebra to say

(k+1)^3+11(k+1)

(k^3+3k^2+3k+1) + 11(k+1)

k^3+3k^2+3k+1+11k+11

(k^3+11k) + (3k^2+3k+12)

(k^3+11k) + 3(k^2+k+4)

At this point, we have the k^3+11k as the first group while we have 3(k^2+k+4) as the second group. We already know that k^3+11k is a multiple of 6, so we don't need to worry about it. We just need to show that 3(k^2+k+4) is also a multiple of 6. This means we need to show k^2+k+4 is a multiple of 2, i.e. it's even.

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

If k is even, then k = 2m for some integer m

That means k^2+k+4 = (2m)^2+(2m)+4 = 4m^2+2m+4 = 2(m^2+m+2)

We can see that if k is even, then k^2+k+4 is also even.

If k is odd, then k = 2m+1 and

k^2+k+4 = (2m+1)^2+(2m+1)+4 = 4m^2+4m+1+2m+1+4 = 2(2m^2+3m+3)

That shows k^2+k+4 is even when k is odd.

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

In short, the last section shows that k^2+k+4 is always even for any integer

That then points to 3(k^2+k+4) being a multiple of 6

Which then further points to (k^3+11k) + 3(k^2+k+4) being a multiple of 6

It's a lot of work, but we've shown that (k+1)^3+11(k+1) is a multiple of 6 based on the assumption that k^3+11k is a multiple of 6.

This concludes the inductive step and overall the proof is done by this point.

Find the savings plan balance after 2 years with an APR of 4% and monthly payments of $250. The balance is $ (Do not round until
alexdok [17]

Answer:

$6,506.51

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that increasing an amount C in x% is equivalent to multiply it by (1+x/100)

As we have 4% APR, the monthly interest would be (4/12)% = 0.04/12

<u>Month 0</u> (first payment)

$250

Month 1

250 + 250 \frac{0.04}{12}= 250(\frac{12.04}{12})

<u>Month 2</u>

250(1+\frac{12.04}{12}+(\frac{12.04}{12})^2)

<u>Month 3</u>

250(1+\frac{12.04}{12}+(\frac{12.04}{12})^2+(\frac{12.04}{12})^3)

<u>Month 24 (2 years)</u>

250(1+\frac{12.04}{12}+(\frac{12.04}{12})^2+(\frac{12.04}{12})^3+...+(\frac{12.04}{12})^{24})

The sum  

1+\frac{12.04}{12}+(\frac{12.04}{12})^2+(\frac{12.04}{12})^3+...+(\frac{12.04}{12})^{24}

is the sum of the first 24 terms of a geometric sequence with common ratio \frac{12.04}{12} which is

\frac{1-(12.04/12)^{25}}{1-(12.04/12)}=26.02603071

so, after 2 years the saving balance is

250*26.02603071 = 6,506.50767= $6,506.51 rounded to the nearest cent.
