Mathematics

Answer:

a_{n} = - 3n

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a common difference between consecutive terms, that is

- 6 - (- 3) = - 9 - (- 6) = - 12 - (- 9) = - 3

This indicate the sequence is arithmetic with n th term

a_{n} = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Here a₁ = - 3 and d = - 3 , thus

a_{n} = - 3 - 3(n - 1) = - 3 - 3n + 3 = - 3n

The n th term is - 3n

Sergio039 [100]
Answer: 1/3 (x + 6)

Explanation: given f(x) = 3x - 6.
Let y = f(x) and so y = 3x - 6.
Trade places between x and y.
x = 3y - 6
Solve for y
x + 6 = 3y
y = x + 6/3
Now the new y is the inverse and so y = f-1(x)
f-1(x) = 1/3(x + 6)

A sum of $4000 is invested at 5.5% interest per year. Find the amount of time needed to double the money if it’s compounded mont

Answer:

  C)  12y 8m

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of principal P at compound monthly at interest rate r per year is given by ...

  A = P(1 +r/12)^(12t) . . . . after t years

Here, we want to find t, so ...

  A/P = (1 +r/12)^(12t)

  log(A/P) = (12t)·log(1 +r/12)

  t = log(A/P)/(12·log(1 +r/12))

Filling in the given values, we find t to be ...

  t = log(8000/4000)/(12·log(1 +0.055/12)) ≈ 12.6315 ≈ 12 years 7.6 months

It will take about 12 years 8 months to double the money.
