Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$-17(y-2)=-17y+64\qquad\text{use the distributive property}\\\\(-17)(y)+(-17)(-2)=-17y+64\\\\-17y+34=-17y+64\qquad\text{add}\ 17y\ \text{to both sides}\\\\-17y+17y+34=-17y+17y+64\\\\34=64\qquad\bold{FALSE}\\\\\bold{CONCLUSION:}\ \large\boxed{\text{no solution}}$

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-17(y - 2) = -17y + 64

-17y + 34 = -17y + 64

-17y + 17y = 64 - 34

0 = 30 (incorrect)

this system has NO SOLUTIONS

Mohamed decided to track the number of leaves on the tree in his backyard each year The first year there were 500 leaves Each ye

svetlana [45]

Answer:

The required recursive formula is

$f(n)= 500\times(1.4)^{n-1}\\$

Step-by-step explanation:

Mohamed decided to track the number of leaves on the tree in his backyard each year.

The first year there were 500 leaves

$Year \: 1 = 500$

Each year thereafter the number of leaves was 40% more than the year before so that means

$Year \: 2 = 500(1+0.40) = 500\times 1.4\\$

For the third year the number of leaves increase 40% than the year before so that means

$Year \: 3 = 500\times 1.4(1+0.40) = 500 \times 1.4^{2}\\$

Similarly for fourth year,

$Year \: 4 = 500\times 1.4^{2}(1+0.40) = 500\times 1.4^{3}\\$

So we can clearly see the pattern here

Let f(n) be the number of leaves on the tree in Mohameds back yard in the nth year since he started tracking it then general recursive formula is

$f(n)= 500\times(1.4)^{n-1}\\$

This is the required recursive formula to find the number of leaves for the nth year.

Bonus:

Lets find out the number of leaves in the 10th year,

$f(10)= 500\times(1.4)^{10-1}\\\\f(10)= 500\times(1.4)^{9}\\\\f(10)= 500\times20.66\\\\f(10)= 10330$

So there will be 10330 leaves in the 10th year.

What is the radius of a sphere with a surface area of 100 pi cm2

Ksenya-84 [330]

The surface area of a sphere is 4r^2pi, so dividing 100 by 4pi gives a result of 25/pi. Taking the square root and rationalizing the denominator, we have 5sqrt(pi)/pi as the radius of the sphere.

What is 1,000,000,000,000 as a power of 10?

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

1,000,000,000 as a power of 10, is: 10^12

Step-by-step Solution:

We can expand 1,000,000,000, and write this number as a multiplication sentence using only the number 10. By doing this, we can count the number of tens needed to be multiplied to get to his answer:

1,000,000,000 = 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10

Since 10 is multiplied by itself 12 times, we can therefore say that 10^12 is equal to 1,000,000,000
