4th term = 29

to generate the terms, substitute n = 2, 3, 4 into the rule

noting that b(1) = - 7

b(2) = b(2 - 1) + 12 = b(1) + 12 = -7 + 12 = 5

b(3) = b(3 - 1) + 12 = b(2) + 12 = 5 + 12 = 17

b(4) = b(4 - 1) + 12 = b(3) + 12 = 17 + 12 = 29

Answer:  The 4th term in the sequence is 29 .

Step-by-step explanation:

The given recursive formula for the sequence :

b(1)=-7\\\\ b(n)=b(n-1)+12

To find : 4th term

At n=2 , we have

b(2)=b(1)+12=-7+12=5   (Second term)

At n=3 , we have

b(3)=b(2)+12=5+12=17  (Third term)

At n=4 , we have

b(4)=b(3)+12=17+12=29  (Fourth term)

Therefore , the 4th term in the sequence is 29 .

melisa1 [442]
The answer is C. Because it takes 5730 years for half of a sample of carbon-14 atoms to decay. It says that 50% of the carbon atoms have decayed so that means that 5730 years have elapsed for that fossil.

I hope that helps.

P( x) =x^3-6x^2-5x-14 What is the remainder R when the polynomial p(x) is divided by (x-7)
Igoryamba

Answer:

The remainder is zero

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the remainder we will use the long division

\frac{x^{3}-6x^{2}-5x-14}{x-7}=x^{2}\frac{x^{2}-5x-14 }{x-7}⇒(1)

\frac{x^{2}-5x-14}{x-7}=x\frac{2x-14}{x-7}⇒(2)

\frac{2x-14}{x-7}=2⇒(3)

From (1) , (2) and (3)

The quotient of the long division is x^{2}+x+2 and no remainder

So the remainder is zero

* If you want to check your answer Multiply the quotient by the divisor

(x^{2}+x+2)(x-7)=x^{3}-6x^{2}-5x-14

A tennis tournament has 2n contestants. We want to pair them up for the first round of singles matches. Show that the number of
ddd [48]

There are

\dbinom{2n}2 = \dfrac{(2n)!}{2! (2n-2)!}

ways of pairing up any 2 members from the pool of 2n contestants. Note that

(2n)! = 1\times2\times3\times4\times\cdots\times(2n-2)\times(2n-1)\times(2n) = (2n-2)! \times(2n-1) \times(2n)

so that

\dbinom{2n}2 = \dfrac{(2n)\times(2n-1)\times(2n-2)!}{2! (2n-2)!} = \boxed{n(2n-1)}

A rectangular lap pool measures 80 feet long by 20 feet wide if it needs to be filled to 48 and each cubic foot hose 7.5 gallons
zmey [24]

Answer: it will take 576000 gallons to fill the lap pool.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining the volume of water in the rectangular pool is expressed as

Volume = length × width × height

The rectangular lap pool measures 80 feet long by 20 feet wide if it needs to be filled to 48. It means that the volume of water that would be pumped inside the pool is

Volume = 80 × 20 × 48 = 76800 cubic feet

1 cubic foot = 7.5 gallons

76800 cubic feet = 76800 × 7.5 = 576000 gallons
