Answer:

452

Step-by-step explanation:

nth term formula: A<em>n=</em>a + (n - 1)d

An=nth term

a= 1st term

n=the term# u need to find

d= common difference

common difference in our case is <em>32-12=20</em>

<em>20 is the common </em>

substitute this value into the nth term formula:

An=-8+(24-1)*20

An=-8+(24-1)*20

An=452

Hope this helps!

You can see that two consecutive terms always differ by 20.

In other words, you generate the next term in the sequence by adding 20 to the previous one.

This implies the following structure:

\begin{array}{l}a_1=8\\a_2=a_1+20\\a_3=a_2+20=(a_1+20)+20 = a_1+2\cdot 20\\\ldots\\a_n = a_1+(n-1)\cdot 20\end{array}

In particular, this implies

a_{24} = a_1+23\cdot 20 = -8+460 = 452

The profits of a company are found by subtracting the company's costs from its revenue. If a company's cost can be modeled by 14
evablogger [386]

Answer:

-0.0002x^2 +26x-120000

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct question should be:

We have been told that all we have to do to get profit is to subtract the cost from revenue.

Revenue = 40x - 0.0002x^2

Cost <em>= </em>14x + 120,000<em />

<em />

Hence:

Profit = 40x - 0.0002x^2 - (14x + 120000)

40x - 0.0002x^2 - 14x - 120000\\\\40x - 14x - 0.0002x^2 - 120000\\\\26x - 0.0002x^2 - 120000

Putting it in ordered form:

-0.0002x^2 +26x-120000

This is an expression for the profit.

How do you know if a graph you are looking at shows a periodic function?
Savatey [412]
You know when it is a periodic function if the values repeats in regular intervals or periods. An example of this is trigonometric functions that repeat over intervals of 2 pi radians.
