Let's find the rates at which Melinda and Marcus are saving money and compare them.
Based on the table, we can see that Melinda originally had $75. Then she got $135 in 5 weeks. So the rate of saving money is (135–75)/5 = $12 per week.
This rate is unchanged for the next weeks. As we can see, she got $195 in the next 5 weeks. So she saved $60 more those 5 weeks, or the rate is $60/5 = $12 per week again.
So Melinda saved $12 per week.
As for Marcus, the equation tells us that the rate of saving money is $14 which is the coefficient in front of x.
Hence, t<span>he rate at which Melinda is adding to her savings each week is 2$
less than the rate at which Marcus is adding to his savings each week.</span>
F(x) = x - 2sinx
To find for what values of x graph has tangents we need to differentiate function f(x).
f'(x) = 1-2cosx
Now, if we want to have horizontal tangents we need to make function f'(x) equal to 0 because at minimum or maximum of function f(x) tangent is horizontal.
1-2cosx = 0
cosx = 1/2
x = pi/3 + 2*n*pi and
x = -pi/3 + 2*n*pi
Explanation: cosx = 1/2 for both 60° and -60°. If we make one circle cosx will be equal to 1/2 for 420 and 300 degrees. Writing degrees in radians (using pi) we can write formulas above where 2*pi represents one full circle and n is an integer which represents how many circles we made.
Firstly, seeing that the sequence is based on odd numbers I would say that this is the formula (which will allow you to know whatever term):
nth term = 2n-1
Hope this helps!
This is just to easy the correct answer is A
Answer:
-55
Step-by-step explanation:
the sqeuence seems to be subtracting by 2 everytime.
so it will be -1,-3,-5,-7,-9,-11,-13,-15,-17,-19,-21,-23,-25,-27,-29..
the answer will be 27*-2(-54) -1(because we start at -1 , not 0)
