Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Total number of members in a sports club = 38

Number of women in the club = 14

Number of women play tennis =10

Number of men play tennis = 8

Since they all play either squash or tennis.

Total number of men in the club is given by

$38-14\\\\=24$

So, number of men playing squash is given by

$24-8\\\\=16$

Number of women playing squash is given by

$20-16\\\\=4$

so, the table is shown below :

Men Women Total

Tennis 16 4 20

Squash 8 10 18

Total 24 14 38

Given the recursive function f(n) = f(n - 1) - 3 ; f(1) = 9 , what would be the first three terms of the sequence ?

Ann [662]

The first three terms of sequence are 9 , 6 , 3

Solution:

Given the recursive function f(n) = f(n - 1) - 3

Where f(1) = 9

To find: First three terms of sequence

Substitute n = 2 , n = 3 and n = 4 in given recursive function

When n = 2

f(n) = f(n - 1) - 3

f(2) = f(2 - 1) - 3

f(2) = f(1) - 3

f(2) = 9 - 3 = 6

f(2) = 6

Thus second term is 6

When n = 3

f(3) = f( 3 - 1) - 3

f(3) = f(2) - 3

f(3) = 6 - 3 = 3

f(3) = 3

Thus the third term is 3

When n = 4

f(4) = f( 4 - 1) - 3

f(4) = f(3) - 3

f(4) = 3 - 3

f(4) = 0

Thus the fourth term is 0

Thus first three terms of sequence are 9 , 6 , 3

Three times the square of a nonzero number is equal to twelve times the number.

dedylja [7]

Well if you write the statement as an equation then that will get you

3*x^2 = 12x

Now we just solve. You can divide both sides by 3x and that gives you x = 4

The triangles are similar. What is the value of x? Enter your answer in the box. x = two right triangles. the larger triangle ha

Mama L [17]

Since the triangles are right triangles, the hypotenuse can be calculated using the Pythagorean theorem:
5²+12²=x²
x²=25+144, x²=169⇒x=√169
x=13
The hypotenuse of a smaller triangle is 13 units.

Amanda and jamie are standing 25 feet apart and spot a bird in the sky between them the angle of elevation from Amanda is 25 fee

finlep [7]

Answer:

25.2294 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this question drawing a triangle using the values given and then using the law of sines. (See image attached to know how to draw the triangle and use the values).

First we need to find the third angle of the triangle, that is, the angle in the vertix where the bird is:

y + 55 + 63 = 180

y = 62°

The relation between the angles and the distances are:

25 / sin(y) = x / sin(63)

25 / 0.8829 = x / 0.8910

x = 25 * 0.8910 / 0.8829 = 25.2294 feet
