Is 40,10,5/2,5/8 geometric or arithmetic

Answer:

Geometric because there is a common ratio of (1/4)

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine if a series is arithmetic there must be a common difference.  A common difference is when you take consecutive terms and find the difference (10 - 40 = -30).  Then to see if it holds true you apply it to the next term (10 - 30 = -20).  If they match, then there is a common difference.  In this case they do not match thus no common difference.

If it is geometric, then there is a common ratio.  A common ratio is when you divide the second term from the first (10/40 = 1/4).  Once you have the possible ratio you multiply the second term by the common ratio to see if it holds (10 * 1/4 = 5/2).  In this case it does hold, and thus a common ratio, and a geometric sequence.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is a geometric sequence because it has common ratio not common difference.

a = 40

r =  \frac{a2}{a1}  =  \frac{10}{40}  =  \frac{1}{4}

again \:  \:  \frac{a3}{a2}  =  \frac{ \frac{5}{2} }{10}  =  \frac{5}{20}  =  \frac{1}{4}

Find the rate of change of total​ revenue, cost, and profit with respect to time. Assume that​ R(x) and​ C(x) are in dollars. ​R
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the Total revenue R(x) = 2x

Cost C(x) = 0.01x²+0.3x+30 where;

x = 30 and dx/dt = 9units per day.

Rate of change of revenue dR/dt = dR/dx • dx/dt

dR/dt = 2dx/dt

dR/dt = 2(9) = $18

Rate of change of revenue with respect to time is 18dollars/day.

Rate of change of cost dC/dt = dC/dx • dx/dt

dC/dt = (0.02x+0.3)dx/dt

dC/dt at x = 30 and dx/dt = 9 will give;

dC/dt = {0.02(30)+0.3}×9

dC/dt = (0.6+0.3) × 9

dC/dt = 0.9×9

dC/dt = $8.1

Rate of change of cost with respect to time is 8.1dollars/day

Profit = Revenue - Cost

Profit = 18-8.1

Daily Profit = $9.9

2. Write an equation in slope intercept form with the given Information Goes through points (1, 8) and (5, 0)
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

y = -2x + 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope: m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}}

Slope-Intercept Form: y=mx+b

m=\frac{8-0}{1-5}

m = -2

y = -2x + b

0 = -2 (5)+b

0=(-10)+b

b = 10

y = -2x + 10
