An airplane can ascend at a rate of 54 1/2 meters 2/3 of a second. how many meters can the airplane acend in one second

The domain are all valid values for x (the independent variable) that can be used in an equation.

We have to look at any potential values of x which won't work. Easily put: in algebra, just look for values of x which cause either division by zero, or the square root of negative numbers.

A couple of examples:
y=2x+4
You can insert any negative or positive value, or zero, for x and get a valid equation. Therefore the domain is the set of all real numbers. Answers are usually written as:
x: {R}, or simply 'all real numbers'.

what about y=2/(x-1)
In this equation, x appears in the denominator. If x-1=0, then division by zero would occur.
Solve: x-1≠0
x≠1
In set notation:
x: (-∞,1)∪(1,∞)
Parentheses are next to the 1, as the domain comes up to 1, but does not include 1.
Read left to right, the domain is "negative infinity to 1, exclusive, in union with 1 to positive infinity"

Write an expression to represent this situation: seven less than the product of four and a number please help me

Studentka2010 [4]

4x-7: "seven less than" means you're going to subtract it from the upcoming value, which is "the product of four and a number". "a number" refers to an unknown variable, which I chose to be x. So put it all together and you get 4x-7

Determine which of these sequences is an arithmetic sequence. Then determine the explicit formula that would be used to define t

vagabundo [1.1K]

6)

34, 43, 52, 61, ...

43-34 = 9; 52-43 = 9; 61-52 = 9

The difference between one term and the next is a constant so it is arithmetic sequence

first term: a = 34

difference: d = 9

so the formula:

$a_n=a+d(n-1)\\\\a_n=34+9(n-1)\\\\a_n = 34+9n-9\\\\\underline{a_n=9n+25}$

7)

10, 6, 2, -2, ...

6-10 = -4; 2-6 = -4; -2-2 = -4

The difference between one term and the next is a constant so it is arithmetic sequence

first term: a = 10

difference: d = -4

so the formula:

$a_n=a+d(n-1)\\\\a_n=10+(-4)(n-1)\\\\a_n = 10-4n+4\\\\\underline{a_n=-4n+14}$

8)

-3, -10, -17, -24, ...

-10-(-3) = -7; -17-(-10) = -7; -24-(-17) = -7

The difference between one term and the next is a constant so it is arithmetic sequence

first term: a = -3

difference: d = -7

so the formula:

$a_n=a+d(n-1)\\\\a_n=-3+(-7)(n-1)\\\\a_n =-3-4n+7\\\\\underline{a_n=-7n+4}$

9)

7, 8.5, 10, 11.5, ...

8.5-7 = 1.5; 10-8.5 = 1.5; 11.5-10 = 1.5

The difference between one term and the next is a constant so it is arithmetic sequence

first term: a = 7

difference: d = 1.5

so the formula:

$a_n=a+d(n-1)\\\\a_n=7+1.5(n-1)\\\\a_n =7+1.5n-1.5\\\\\underline{a_n=1.5n+5.5}$

10)

30, 22¹/₂, 15, 7¹/₂, ...

22¹/₂-30 = -7¹/₂; 15-22¹/₂ = -7¹/₂; 7¹/₂-15 = -7¹/₂

The difference between one term and the next is a constant so it is arithmetic sequence

first term: a = 30

difference: d = -7¹/₂

so the formula:

$a_n=a+d(n-1)\\\\a_n=30+(-7\frac12)(n-1)\\\\a_n =30-7\frac12n+7\frac12\\\\ \underline{a_n=-7\frac12n+37\frac12}$

Wharts the differences between a dialation and a reduction in geometry?

Svetach [21]

A dilation is when the figure is enlarged and a reduction is when the figure is reduced, smaller.
The scale factor for dilation is > 1 and reduction >0,<1
