The formula for the nth term of a sequence with first term a1 and common ratio r is
an=a1(r)^(n-1)
r=a(n+1)/an

to find the common ratio, divide a term by the previous term
8/2=4
2/(1/2)=4
(1/2)/(1/8)=4
(1/8)/(1/32)=4
common ratio is 4
first erm is 1/32

an=(1/32)(4)^(n-1)

How is the parent function y=x2 related to the given function Y=3(x+1)2?
Nuetrik [128]
Parent function: y = f(x) = x^2

given function: y = g(x) = 3 (x+1)^2

=> g(x) = 3 * f(x + 1)^2

So, from the point of view of graphs, the given function, g(x), is the parent function, f(x) = x^2, shifted one unit to the left and amplified by a factor of 3.

John needs to divide the sample in half once the number of bacteria has reached 1000. How many hours after the initial time must
Reil [10]

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is attached here

The rate of increase of bacterial population  be K

As we know

Y = Y_0 * e^{kT}

where Y is the final population. In this case it is 1000

K is the rate of increase of population i.e 3 times per hour

T is the time in hours

Y0 is the initial population = 5

Substituting the given values, we get -

1000 = 5 *e^{3*T}\\200 = e^{3*T}

Taking log on both sides, we get -

ln 200 = ln e^{3T}

2.718 * 2.301 = 3T

T = 2.084 hours

hence, option A is correct

Four students are competing in a race. In how many different combinations could the four students place in the race?
VMariaS [17]

"Combinations" isn't really the right word, because a combination doesn't take order of elements into account, and the outcome of a race certainly does depend on order. "Permutations" would be the correct term.

If 4 students are competing, then the race has

4! = 4 • 3 • 2 • 1 = 24

possible outcomes.
