Answer: fourth option

\frac{1}{4} 4^{x-1}-4

Explanation:

1) the pair x = 3 f(x) = 0, leads you to probe this:

f(3) = 0 = A [4 ^ (3 - 1) ] + C = 0

=> A [4^2] = - C

A[16] = - C

if A = 1/4

16 / 4 = 4 => C = - 4

That leads you to the function f(x) = [1/4] 4 ^( x - 1) - 4

2) Now you verify the images for that function for all the x-values of the table:

x = 2 => f(2) + [1/4] 4 ^ (2 - 1) - 4 = [1/4] 4 - 4 = 4 / 4 - 4 = 1 - 4 = - 3 => check

x = 3 => f(3) = [1/4] 4^ (3 - 1) - 4 = [1/4] 4^2 - 4 = 16 / 4 - 4 = 4 - 4 = 0 => check

x = 4 -> f(4) = [1/4] 4^ (4-1) - 4 = [1/4] 4^(3) - 4 = (4^3) / 4 - 4 = 4^2 - 4 = 16 - 4 = 12 => check.

Therefore, you have proved that the answer is the fourth option.

Helppp!! Instructions: Find the missing side. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
natita [175]

Answer:

x ≈ 14.4

Step-by-step explanation:

using the cosine ratio in the right triangle

cos59° = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} = \frac{x}{28} ( multiply both sides by 28 )

28 × cos59° , then

x ≈ 14.4 ( to the nearest tenth )

Given that curl F = 2yi – 2zj + 3k, find the surface integral of the normal component of curl F (not F) over (a) the open hemisp
Dimas [21]

Use Stokes' theorem for both parts, which equates the surface integral of the curl to the line integral along the surface's boundary.

a. The boundary of the hemisphere is the circle x^2+y^2=9 in the plane z=0, where the curl is \mathrm{curl}\vec F=2y\,\vec\imath+3\,\vec k. Green's theorem applies here, so that

\displaystyle\iint_S\mathrm{curl}\vec F\cdot\mathrm d\vec S=\int_{\partial S}\vec F\cdot\mathrm d\vec r=3\int_{x^2+y^2=9}\mathrm d\vec r

which means the value of the line integral is 3 times the area of the circle, or 27\pi.

b. The closed sphere has no boundary, so by Stokes' theorem the integral is 0.

why do whole numbers raised to an exponent get greater while fractions raised to an exponent get smaller?
Scrat [10]
Because 3^2 = 9
When you do (⅓)^2 what you are really doing is
(1^2)/(3^2) = 1/9


If you have (⅔)^2 you do
(2^2)/(3^2) = 4/9

Fractions get smaller because the denominator is also being squared which makes the denominator get bigger and when the denominator is bigger, you are dividing by a larger number which gives you a smaller answer. Whereas when you raise a whole number to an exponent, only the numerator get bigger because the denominator is 1 and 1 raised to any exponent is still 1

3^2 = (3^2)/(1^2) = 9/1 = 9
