il63 [147K]

Answer:

341

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of people who know the art of quilting in each successive generation is

1, 4, 16, …

These numbers represent a geometric sequence where each term has the form

aₙ = a₁rⁿ⁻¹

In your sequence, a₁ = 1 and r = 4.

Then, the formula for your sequence is

aₙ = 4ⁿ⁻¹

Sum over five generations

The formula for the sum of the first n terms of a geometric series is

Sum = a₁[(1 - rⁿ)/(1 - r)]

Sum = 1[(1 - 4⁵)/(1 - 4)

= (1 - 1024)/(-3)

= -1023/-3

= 341

If the process continues for five generations, 341 people will know the art of quilting.

A biologist is studying the elk population in a county park. She starts with only 2 elk and observes that the number of elk trip

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

The expression that represents the population of elk is: $\text{elk}(t) = 2*3^t$ . It'll take 6 years for the population to reach 1,458 individuals.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the number of elks triples every year and starts at $\text{elk}(0) = 2$ , then after the first year the population will be:

$\text{elk}(1) = \text{elk}(0)*3 = 2*3$

While on the second year, it'll be:

$\text{elk}(2) = \text{elk}(1)*3 = 2*3*3 = 2*3^2$

On the third year:

$\text{elk}(3) = \text{elk}(2)*3 = 2*3^2*3 = 2*3^3$

And so on, therefore the expression that describes the population of elk as the years passes is:

$\text{elk}(t) = 2*3^t$

If we want to know the number of years until the population reach 1,458 elk, we need to apply this value to the left side of the equation and solve for t.

$1458 = 2*3^t\\3^t = \frac{1458}{2}\\3^t = 729\\ln(3^t) = ln(729)\\t*ln(3) = ln(729)\\t = \frac{ln(729)}{ln(3)} = 6$

The population will reach 1,458 elk in 6 years.

In triangle ABC segment DE is parallel to the side AC. (The endpoints of segment DE lie on the sides AB and BC respectively).

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

6 dm

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle DBE is similar to triangle ABC, so their side lengths are proportional.

DE/AC = DB/AB

The length of DB can be found from ...

DB +AD = AB

DB = AB -AD = (15 -10) dm = 5 dm

So, we can fill in the proportion:

DE/(18 dm) = (5 dm)/(15 dm)

DE = (18 dm)·(1/3) . . . . . . . . . . simplify, multiply by 18 dm

DE = 6 dm
