Answer:

b. 390

Step-by-step explanation:

a_1 =3\\a_n=75\\n=10\\\\use \ the \ arithmetic\  formula \\\\S_n=\frac{n}{2}(a_1+a_n)\\S_1_0=\frac{10}{2} (3+75)\\\\ \\S_1_0= 5 (78)\\\\S_1_0=390\\

The arithmetic sequence general formula is an = a1 + d *(n-1) where d is the arithmetic difference and n is an integer. In this case, upon derivation, the formula that represents the sum of the series is S = (a1  + an)*(n/2). Substituting, S = (3+75)*(10/2) equal to 390

The number of carbon atoms in a fossil is given by the function y= 5100(0.95)^x where x represents the number of years since bei
natita [175]

Answer:

This is a guess!

When looking at the given equation I can not help but think of compound interest. So I am going to convert this into that format.

'~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Within the context of financial interest:

Looking for:

P

(

1

−

x

)

n

Where P is the principle sum,

x

is the interest and n is the number of interest cycles (annual)

'~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Given:

y

=

5100

(

0.95

)

x

But

0.95

=

1

−

0.05

so we have

y

=

5100

(

1

−

0.05

)

x

But

.

0.05

=

5

100

So we have

y

=

5100

(

1

−

5

100

)

x

Thus the percentage change each year is

−

5

%

Solve by factoring:<br><br> 5x^2 + 19x + 12 = 0
Mariulka [41]

When solving polynomial equations, first set the equation

equal to zero, then check for a Greatest Common Factor.

Since there is no greatest common factor, this will make life a

little bit more difficult because we will have to factor the trinomial.

First, find all possible factors for constant term.

I have listed these in red below.

Make sure to reverse the factors since in each binomial,

the first term is different so we need to reverse the factors.

The factors of 5x² will just be 5x and z.

After finding factors for the constant and the leading

coefficient for your trinomial, we can eliminate some factors.

If you have an odd coefficient on the middle term,

you can eliminate any pairs of even factors.

So the group I crossed out in purple below will be eliminated.

Another strategy is to use factors a little closer together.

So I would go with the 4 and 3 group.

Surely enough, our trinomial does factor with the 4 and 3.

Now set the factored trinomial equal to 0.

Then use zero product property and you have your answer.
