Softa [21]3 years ago

5 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute n = 1, n = 2, n = 3 and n = 4 to the equation f(n) = n² - 1:

f(1) = 1² - 1 = 1 - 1 = 0

f(2) = 2² - 1 = 4 - 1 = 3

f(3) = 3² - 1 = 9 - 1 = 8

f(4) = 4² - 1 = 16 - 1 = 15

X/3/4 = 100<br> what does x equal

Crank

Answer:

x=1200

Step-by-step explanation:

x/3/4=100

Step 1: Multiply both sides by 4.

x/3/4=100

(x/3/4)*(4)=(100)*(4)

x/3=400

Step 2: Multiply both sides by 3.

3*(3/x)=(3)*(400)

x=1200

What is 39.79949748 rounded to the nearest hundredth?

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

$Number = 39.80$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Number = 39.79949748$

Required

Approximate (to the nearest 100th)

This means that, we approximate at the second digit after the decimal.

So:

i.e,

Number = 39.79 [Begin approximation] 949748

The first digit after [Begin approximation] is then approximated using the following rule:

$0 - 4 \approx 0$

$5 - 9 \approx 1\\$

Since 9 falls in $5 - 9 \approx 1\\$ category, the number becomes:

$Number = 39.[79+1]$

$Number = 39.80$

Without graphing, tell whether the line containing (4, 2) and (4, 9) is horizontal, vertical, or neither.

telo118 [61]

Answer:

Vertical.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is vertical because 4 + 4 (adding both X-axis, totalling 8) is smaller than 9 + 2 (adding both Y-axis, totalling 11), so the Y-axis, which is vertical, is bigger.
