Purse A which contains $1,000 today. If you leave it alone, it will contain $1,200 tomorrow (by magic). The next day, it will ha

The next day, there will be 4 pennies. The amount in the purse will continue to double each day. How much money will be in each purse after a week? After two weeks?

Answer:

<u>After a Week(7 days)</u>

Purse \:A: \$2200\\Purse B: \$0.64

<u>After 2 Weeks(14 days)</u>

<u />Purse \:A: \$3600\\Purse B: \$81.92<u />

<u>After 3 Weeks(21 days)</u>

<u />Purse \:A: \$5000\\Purse B: \$10485.76<u />

<u>After 30 days</u>

<u />Purse \:A: \$6800\\Purse B: \$5368709.12<u />

Therefore, Purse B contains more money after 30 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Purse A</u>

The amount of money($1000) in purse A for each consecutive day grows with $200. The sequence is written as:

1000,1200,1400,...

This is an arithmetic sequence with the first term being $1000 and the common difference $200.

Therefore, for any number of day, n, the amount of money in the purse,

T_n=1000+200(n-1)

<u>Purse B</u>

1 Penny=$0.01

The amount of money(1 Penny) in purse B for each consecutive day doubles. The sequence is written as:

0.01,0.02,0.04,...

This is a geometric sequence with the first term being $0.01 and the common ratio 2.

Therefore, for any number of day, n, the amount of money in  purse B,

T_n=0.01(2)^{n-1}

<u>After a Week(7 days)</u>

Purse \:A: T_7=1000+200(7-1)=\$2200\\Purse B: T_7=0.01(2)^{7-1}=\$0.64

<u>After 2 Weeks(14 days)</u>

<u />Purse \:A: T_{14}=1000+200(14-1)=\$3600\\Purse B: T_{14}=0.01(2)^{14-1}=\$81.92<u />

<u>After 3 Weeks(21 days)</u>

<u />Purse \:A: T_{21}=1000+200(21-1)=\$5000\\Purse B: T_{21}=0.01(2)^{21-1}=\$10485.76<u />

<u>After 30 days</u>

<u />Purse \:A: T_{30}=1000+200(30-1)=\$6800\\Purse B: T_{30}=0.01(2)^{30-1}=\$5368709.12<u />

Algebra 2 will give points and brainly
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In the 3rd question, we are given the equation x ^ 3 + x ^ 2 + 2x + 24. One of the factors is x + 3. Now, we can use long division to find that the equation we have left is x^2 - 2x - 8. We can just factor this to get (x - 4) (x + 2). In the 3rd question, possible factors for the coefficient are 1, 2, -1, -2. Possible factors for the constant are 1, 7, -1, -7. Now, we can try out all of them. The possible factors are 1, 7, -1, -7, 2, 14, -2, -14.

Answer:

i) Equation can have exactly 2 zeroes.

ii) Both the zeroes will be real and distinctive.

Step-by-step explanation:

x^{2} - 7x + 3 is the given equation.

It is of the form of quadratic equation a^{2} + bx + c and highest degree of the polynomial is 2.

Now, FUNDAMENTAL THEOREM OF ALGEBRA

If P(x) is a polynomial of degree n ≥ 1, then P(x) = 0 has exactly n roots, including multiple and complex roots.

So, the equation can have exact 2 zeroes (roots).

Also, find discriminant D = b^{2}  - 4ac = (-7)^{2}  - 4(1)(3) = 49 - 12 = 37

⇒ D = 37

Here, since D > 0, So both the roots will be real and distinctive.
