Answer:

f(5) = 3200

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the recursive formula to generate the terms, that is

f(2) = 2 × f(1) = 2 × 200 = 400

f(3) = 2 × f(2) = 2 × 400 = 800

f(4) = 2 × f(3) = 2 × 800 = 1600

f(5) = 2 × f(4) = 2 × 1600 = 3200

Answer: 6400

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

f(1) = 200

f(n) = 2.f(n-1) , for n = 2 ,3 , 4 , ...

To find the 5th term

when n = 2 , the sequence becomes

f(2) = 2 .f(2-1)

f(2) = 2 f(1)

since f(1) = 200

therefore:

f(2) = 2 x 200

f(2) = 400

When n = 3

f(3) = 2f(2)

f(3) = 2 x 400

f(3) = 800

When n = 4

f(4) = 2 f(3)

f(4) = 1600

When n =5

f(5) = 2f(4)

f(5) = 3200

When n = 6

f(6) = 2f(5)

f(6) = 6400

Since n = 2 , 3 , 4 ... this means that the 5th term if f(6) , therefore ,the 5th term is 6400

Becky put $100 into in the account to use for school expenses. The account earns 11% interest, compounded annually. How much wil

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer: $187 will be in the account after 6 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

We would apply the formula for determining compound interest which is expressed as

A = P(1+r/n)^nt

Where

A = total amount in the account at the end of t years

r represents the interest rate.

n represents the periodic interval at which it was compounded.

P represents the principal or initial amount deposited

From the information given,

P = $100

r = 11% = 11/100 = 0.11

n = 1 because it was compounded once in a year.

t = 6 years

Therefore,.

A = 100(1 + 0.11/1)^1 × 6

A = 100(1 + 0.11)^6

A = 100(1.11)^6

A = $187

During a scuba dive, Lainey descended to a point 19 feet below the ocean surface. She continued her descent at a rate of 25 feet

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

$25t+19\leq 144$

$t\leq5$

The number of minutes she can continue to descend if she does not want to reach a point more than 144 feet below the ocean surface is at most 5 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Initial depth of the scuba dive = 19 ft

Rate of descent = 25 ft/min

Maximum depth to be reached = 144 ft

Now, after 't' minutes, the depth reached by the scuba dive is equal to the sum of the initial depth and the depth covered in 't' minutes moving at the given rate.

Framing in equation form, we get:

Total depth = Initial Depth + Rate of descent × Time

Total depth = $19+25t$

Now, as per question, the total depth should not be more than 144 feet. So,

$\textrm{Total depth}\leq 144\ ft\\\\19+25t\leq 144\\\\or\ 25t+19\leq 144$

Solving the above inequality for time 't', we get:

$25t+19\leq 144\\\\25t\leq 144-19\\\\25t\leq 125\\\\t\leq \frac{125}{25}\\\\t\leq 5\ min$

Therefore, the number of minutes she can continue to descend if she does not want to reach a point more than 144 feet below the ocean surface is at most 5 minutes.

Please, Help. the answer isn't 30°

The missing angle of the right triangle ABC has a measure of 30°. (Correct answer: A)

<h3>How to find a missing angle by triangle properties</h3>

Triangles are geometrical figures formed by three sides and whose sum of internal angles equals 180°. There are two kind of triangles existing in this question: (i) Right triangles, (ii) Isosceles triangles.

Right triangles are triangles which one of its angles equals 90° and isosceles triangles are triangles which two of its sides have equal measures.

According to the statement, we know that triangle BQR is an isosceles triangle, whereas triangles ABC, ANB and NBC are right triangles. Based on the figure attached below, we have the following system of linear equations based on right triangles ABC and NBC:

2 · x + 90 + θ = 180 (1)

(90 - x) + 90 + θ = 180 (2)

By equalizing (1) and (2) we solve the system for x:

2 · x = 90 - x

3 · x = 90

x = 30

And by (1) we solve the system for θ:

θ = 180 - 2 · x - 90

θ = 30

The missing angle of the right triangle ABC has a measure of 30°. (Correct answer: A) $\blacksquare$
