Answer:

an = 4 • -1^n

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute in the value of  n  to find the  n th term.

a 2 = 4 ⋅ ( − 1 2 )  One to any power is one.  a 2 = 4 ⋅ ( − 1 ⋅ 1 )

Multiply  − 1  by  1 .

a 2 = 4 ⋅ − 1

Multiply  4  by  − 1 .

a 2 = − 4

-1 x 4= -4

-4 x 4= -16

-16 x 4= -64

-64 x 4= -256

-256 x 4= -1024

-1024 x 4= -4096

-4096 x 4= -16384

-16384 x 4= -65536

On a snow day, Jada created two snowmen in her yard. Snowman A was built to a height of 51 inches and Snowman B was built to a h
MaRussiya [10]

From the graph of the linear functions, we have that both snowman's will have the same height of 21 inches after 5 hours.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

For this problem, we have that:

  • The initial height is the intercept.
  • The melting rate, as a negative, is the slope.

Hence the functions are given as follows:

  • A(t) = 51 - 6t.
  • B(t) = 36 - 3t.

The functions are graphed at the end of the answer, with <u>A(t) in red and B(t) in blue,</u> and they intersect at (5,21), meaning that both snowman's will have the same height of 21 inches after 5 hours.

If you divide the total distance traveled on a car trip (as determined by the odometer) by the elapsed time of the trip, are you
PSYCHO15rus [73]

In general, you're calculating the magnitude of average velocity. In fact, speed is a vector, and as such it also has a direction and orientation.

So, if you compute the average speed, you're assuming that you went directly from point A to point B, which is basically never the case.

If, instead, you actually moved on a straight line from point A to point B, then the two quantities are the same.

To find the distance across a lake, a

<h3>Right angle triangle:</h3>

Right angle triangle have one of its angles as 90 degrees. Therefore, the side a can be found using trigonometric ratios,

Therefore,

tan 47° = opposite / adjacent

tan 47° = a / 570

cross multiply

a = 570 tan 47°

a = 570 × 1.07236871002

a = 611.250164714

a = 611 yards

A new car's original price is $13,999. If it's on sale<br> for 10% off, what's the new price?
blsea [12.9K]
To find new price after discount we are going to find 10% of $13,999.00, then subtract the discount amount from $13,999.00.

13,999.00 × ¹⁰/₁₀₀ = $1,399.90

13,999.00 - 1,399.90 = $12,599.10

Therefore, new price = $12,599.10
