The wildflowers at a national park have been decreasing in numbers. There were 1200 wildflowers in the first year that the park

started tracking them. Since then, there have been one fourth as many new flowers each year. Create the sigma notation showing the infinite growth of the wildflowers and find the sum, if possible.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We have total 1200 wildflowers in first year that is first term a  is 1200

We have to find sigma notation  showing the infinite growth of the wildflowers.

wildflowers=\sum_{i=1}^{\infty }1200(\frac{1}{4})^{i-1}

Formula for infinite sum of GP is S_{\infty}=\frac{a}{1-r}

Here, a=1200,r=\frac{1}{4}

On substituting the values in the formula of sum we get:

S_{\infty}=\frac{1200}{1-\frac{1}{4}}

On simplification we get:

S_{\infty}=\frac{1200}{\frac{3}{4}}=1600

Therefore, total sum of wildflowers 1600.

A skyrocket is launched from a 30–foot-high platform, with initial speed 300 ft/s. If the polynomial −16t2 + 300t + 30 gives the
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

566 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the polynomial equation

-16t² + 300t + 30 = 0

We're asked to find how high the rocket would rise in a 2 second fuse rise. This is a simple instruction that can be obtained by setting the unknown, t, in the equation to 2. Doing this, we have

-16 * 2² + 300 * 2 + 30

-16 * 4 + 600 + 30

-64 + 630 = 566 ft

Then, we can therefore conclude that the rocket will rise high up to a distance of 566 ft
