Plug in n = 1 into the nth term formula
a(n) = 4n-1
a(1) = 4*1-1
a(1) = 3
So the first term is 3
The second term will be 7 because we add on 4 each time, as indicated by the slope of 4. This is also known as the common difference.
So the nth term is found by adding 4 to the (n-1)st term, in other words,
a(n) = a(n-1)+4
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
In summary, the answer is
a1=3; an=an-1+4
which is choice B
A³ b² 4ab³
Rearrange order:
4 a³ a b² b³
Now add up the exponents from same base:
4 a³⁺¹ b²⁺³
4 a⁴ b⁵
Final answer: 4 a⁴ b⁵
Answer:
It will take 6 hours for the new pump to drain the pool.
Step-by-step explanation:
As the complete question is not given, the complete question is found online and is attached herewith
Let the rate of new pump is given as x=W/t_1
Let the rate of the old pump is given as y=W/t_2
it is given that the time t_2=2t_1
So by substituting the values of t_2 in the rate equation of y
y=W/2t_1
y=(W/t_1*2)=x/2
Also the total rate of both the pumps is given as W/t3 where t3 is given as 4 hours so the equation becomes
x+y=W/4
x+x/2=W/4
3x/2=W/4
As x=W/t_1
3W/2t_1=W/4
Now as W is same on both sides so
3/2t_1=1/4
12=2t_1
t_1=6 hours
So it will take 6 hours for the new pump to drain the pool.
5) The relation between intensity and current appears linear for intensity of 300 or more (current = intensity/10). For intensity of 150, current is less than that linear relation would predict. This seems to support the notion that current will go to zero for zero intensity. Current might even be negative for zero intensity since the line through the points (300, 30) and (150, 10) will have a negative intercept (-10) when current is zero.
Usually, we expect no output from a power-translating device when there is no input, so we expect current = 0 when intensity = 0.
6) We have no reason to believe the linear relation will not continue to hold for values of intensity near those already shown. We expect the current to be 100 for in intensity of 1000.
8) Apparently, times were only measured for 1, 3, 6, 8, and 12 laps. The author of the graph did not want to extrapolate beyond the data collected--a reasonable choice.
