Equation 2. If you look at the graph, you see that the slope is negative 3/4 because the rise over run is -3/4. The only equation with the slope -3/4 is 2, so the answer is 2.

Work out the formula of the nth term in the following quadratic sequence:<br> 19, 15, 9, 1...

Butoxors [25]

In a quadratic sequence we'll get a linear first difference and a constant second difference. Let's verify that.

n 1 2 3 4

f(n) 19 15 9 1

1st diff -4 -6 -8

2nd diff 2 2

We see that we got a constant second difference. We could just extend that and work back up to get more values.

n 1 2 3 4 5 6 7

f(n) 19 15 9 1 -9 -21 -35

1st diff -4 -6 -8 -10 -12 -14

2nd diff 2 2 2 2 2

That's just an aside; we're after the general formula. We have

f(1)=19, f(2)=15, f(3)=9

In general we can assume

f(n) = an² + bn + c

We get three equations in three unknowns,

19 = a(1²)+b(1)+c = a+b+c

15 = a(2²) + b(2) + c = 4a + 2b + c

9 = a(3²) + b(3) + c = 9a + 3b + c

That's a 3x3 linear system; it's easy to solve directly. Subtracting pairs,

4 = -3a - b

6 = -5a - b

Subtracting those,

-2 = 2a

a = -1

b = -3a -4 = -1

c = 19-a-b = 21

Answer: f(n) = -n² - n + 21

Check:

f(1) = -1 - 1 + 21 = 19, good

f(2) = -4 - 2 + 21 = 15, good

f(3) = -9 - 3 + 21 = 9, good

f(4) = -16 - 4 + 21 = 1, good

Let's check our extended table, how about

f(7)= -49 - 7 + 21 = -35, good

Find the coordinates of C' after a reflection across the line

iragen [17]

<h3>Answer: (4,2)</h3>

==============================================================

Explanation:

C is at (0,0). Ignore the other points.

Reflecting over y = 1 lands the point on (0,2) because we move 1 unit up to arrive at the line of reflection, and then we keep going one more unit (same direction) to complete the full reflection transformation. I'll call this point P.

Then we reflect point P over the line x = 2 to arrive at the location Q = (4,2). Note how we moved 2 units to the right to get to the line of reflection, and then keep moving the same direction 2 more units, then we have applied the operation of "reflect over the line x = 2"

So we have started at C = (0,0), moved to P = (0,2) and then finally arrived at the destination Q = (4,2). This is the location of C' as well.

All of this is shown in the diagram below.

The function V(t)=1,000(1.06)^t models the value of an investment after t years. What does the ".06" represent in the function?

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the function, we have;

V(t) = 1,000(1.06)^t

Mathematically, the amount earned on an investment that offers a particular constant percentage return to a particular number of years can be written as;

V = I(1 + r)^t

where V is the value of the investment after some certain number of years

I is the initial amount invested

r is the constant percentage increase

and t is the number of years.

Let’s now re-write what we can deduce in the question.

This is;

V(t) = 1000(1 + 0.06)^t

Thus what this 0.06 represents is r which is the constant interest rate
