A diver jumps up and over from a cliff in order to avoid rocks and land in the deeper water. The path of the dive can be modeled

using the function f(x)=−16x2+2x+48, where f(x) is the height, in feet, of the diver at x time in seconds. What is the maximum height, in feet, the diver will reach? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth if necessary. Do not include units in your answer.

Answer:

48.06  to the nearest hundredth.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = -16x^2 + 2x + 48

To find the maximum height we convert to vertex form:

= -16(x^2 + 1/8x) + 48

= -16[x + 1/16)^2 - 1/256] + 48

= -16(x + 1.16)^2  + 16/256 + 48

= 48.0625.

The question is in the image below.
sineoko [7]

Answer:

The Recursive Formula for the sequence is:

\:a_n=\frac{1}{5}\left(a_{n-1}\right)     ; a₁ = 125

Hence, option D is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a geometric sequence has a constant ratio 'r'.

The formula for the nth term of the geometric sequence is

a_n=a_1\cdot r^{n-1}

where

aₙ is the nth term of the sequence

a₁ is the first term of the sequence

r is the common ratio

We are given the explicit formula for the geometric sequence such as:

a_n=125\left(\frac{1}{5}\right)^{n-1}

comparing with the nth term of the sequence, we get

a₁ = 125

r = 1/5

Recursive Formula:

We already know that

  • a₁ = 125
  • r = 1/5

We know that each successive term in the geometric sequence is 'r' times the previous term where 'r' is the common ratio.

i.e.

a_n=ra_{n-1}

Thus, substituting r = 1/5

\:a_n=\frac{1}{5}\left(a_{n-1}\right)  

and a₁ = 125.

Therefore, the Recursive Formula for the sequence is:

\:a_n=\frac{1}{5}\left(a_{n-1}\right)     ; a₁ = 125

Hence, option D is correct.
