2x*4=6,641,480
divide both sides by 4
2x= 1660370
divide both sides by 2
x= 830,185 days for the entire day to get infected :) 
x= days
2= people a day infected 
*4= number of zombies
6,641,480= number of people in texas
 Hope this helped you have an amazing rest of the day!!!

Given the rule: an=7(1/2)n-1 identify the first term
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

  • using the rule given: 2.5
  • using an exponential rule: 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Evaluating the linear rule given, for n = 1, we have ...

  a1 = 7(1/2)(1) -1 = 7/2 -1 = 5/2 = 2.5

_____

We suspect you may intend the exponential function ...

  an = 7(1/2)^(n-1)

Then, for n = 1, we have ...

  a1 = 7(1/2)^(1 -1) = 7(1) = 7 . . . . the first term is 7

_____

When writing an exponential expression in plain text, it requires the exponential operator, a caret (^). If the exponent contains any arithmetic, as this one does, it must be enclosed in parentheses.

You borrow $5,000 from your parents to purchase a used car. The arrangements of the loan are such that you make payments of $250
AfilCa [17]
Part A:
1st month: Interest payable = 1% of $5,000 = $50.00
Amount paid in first month = $250 + $50.00 = $300
Unpaid balance = $5,000 - $250 = $4,750

2nd month: Interest payable = 1% of $4,750 = $47.50
Amount paid in second month = $250 + $47.50 = $297.50
Unpaid balance = $4,750 - $250 = $4,500

3rd month: Interest payable = 1% of $4,500 = $45.00
Amount paid in third month = $250 + $45.00 = $295.00
Unpaid balance = $4,500 - $250 = $4,250

4th month: Interest payable = 1% of $4,250 = $42.50
Amount paid in fouth month = $250 + $42.50 = $292.50
Unpaid balance = $4,250 - $250 = $4,000

5th month: Interest payable = 1% of $4,000 = $40.00
Amount paid in fifth month = $250 + $40.00 = $290.00
Unpaid balance = $4,000 - $250 = $3,750

6th month: Interest payable = 1% of $3,750 = $37.50
Amount paid in sixth month = $250 + $37.50 = $287.50
Unpaid balance = $3,750 - $250 = $3,500

7th month: Interest payable = 1% of $3,500 = $35.00
Amount paid in seventh month = $250 + $35.00 = $285.00
Unpaid balance = $3,500 - $250 = $3,250

8th month: Interest payable = 1% of $3,250 = $32.50
Amount paid in eighth month = $250 + $32.50 = $282.50
Unpaid balance = $3,250 - $250 = $3,000

9th month: Interest payable = 1% of $3,000 = $30.00
Amount paid in ninth month = $250 + $30.00 = $280.00
Unpaid balance = $3,000 - $250 = $2,750

10th month: Interest payable = 1% of $2,750 = $27.50
Amount paid in fouth month = $250 + $27.50 = $277.50
Unpaid balance = $2,750 - $250 = $2,500

11th month: Interest payable = 1% of $2,500 = $25.00
Amount paid in seventh month = $250 + $25.00 = $275.00
Unpaid balance = $2,500 - $250 = $2,250

12th month: Interest payable = 1% of $2,250 = $22.50
Amount paid in eighth month = $250 + $22.50 = $272.50
Unpaid balance = $2,250 - $250 = $2,000



Part B:
Number of payments = 5000 / 250 = 20
Total amount of interest = 50 + 47.5 + 45 + . . . + upto the 20th payment.
This is an arithmetic sequence with the first term as 50, common difference as -2.5 and number of terms = 20.

Sum of the first 20th term of the GP is given by
S_n= \frac{20}{2}[2(50)+(20-1)(-2.5)] \\  \\ =10(100-2.5(19))=10(100-47.5) \\  \\ =10(52.5)=\$525.00

Therefore, the <span>total amount of interest paid over the term of the loan is $525.00</span>

cho tứ giác ABCD. Gọi M,N,P,Q là trung điểm của các cạnh AB, CD, AD, BC. Chứng minh rằng vecto MP = vecto QN, vecto MQ = vecto P
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Xét tam giác DAB có: P là trung điểm AD, M là trung điểm AB

=> MP là đường trung bình của tam giác DAB => MP//BD và MP=\frac{1}{2}BD  (1)

Xét tam giác DBC có: N là trung điểm DC, Q là trung điểm BC

=> QN là đường trung bình của tam giác DBC => QN//BD và QN=\frac{1}{2}BD  (2)

Từ (1) và (2) => vecto MP song song cùng chiều với vecto QN

và độ dài MP = độ dài QN = \frac{1}{2}BD

=> vecto MP = vecto QN

Tương tự xét các tam giác DAC và tam giác ABC => vecto MQ = vecto PN
