I do not understand what subscript numbers mean

Mathematics

Answer:

  subscripts identify different instances of objects that have a similar meaning or definition

Step-by-step explanation:

You apparently are interested in the meaning of the subscript N in the explicit formula ...

  A_N=\dfrac{7N}{N+5}

Here, it is used to identify different terms of a sequence. When a value is substituted for N, it replaces all instances of N. Using your example, the first three values of A_N are ...

  \text{for N=1: }A_1=\dfrac{7\cdot 1}{1+5}=\dfrac{7}{6}\\\\\text{for N=2: }A_2=\dfrac{7\cdot 2}{2+5}=\dfrac{14}{7}=2\\\\\text{for N=3: }A_3=\dfrac{7\cdot 3}{3+5}=\dfrac{21}{8}

So, if you're asked to find the 20th term of the sequence, you put 20 where N is, then do the arithmetic.

__

Subscripts are also used to identify elements of a matrix or coordinates in multiple dimensions. For this purpose, there may be 2 (or more) subscripts, whose order has meaning. The subscripts 24, for example, in A_{24} refer to row 2, column 4 of a matrix named A. That is, the subscripts are in row, column order.

In short, subscripts are used to identify different instances of similar objects.

Steven conjectures that for |x|>5, it is true that x^3>125. Is his conjecture correct? Why or why not?
vredina [299]

Conjectures are conclusions formed from evidences. Steven's conjecture that: x^3 > 125 is true because: x > 5 or x > -5 for |x| > 5

Given that:

|x| > 5

Split the inequality as follows:

x > 5 or x > -5

Take the cube of both sides

x^3 > 5^3 or x^3 > -5^3

Evaluate all exponents

x^3 > 125 or x^3 > -125

Steven's conjecture that: x^3 > 125 is true because:

x > 5 or x > -5 for |x| > 5
