the distance the child travels n  swings after the first is  Distance = 10(0.83)^n . Options A) and D) are identical , so kindly match Distance = 10(0.83)^n  with your answer !

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here we have , A child on a swing is pushed just once. The child moves a distance of 10  feet the first swing, and then only 83%  as much as the previous swing for each one after. We need to find Which of the following sequences expresses the distance the child travels n  swings after the first . Let's find out:

Initially the distance is 10 feet from after the first swing . It's given that there is 83% as much as previous distance !

For first swing :

⇒ Distance = S_0 =10(0.83)

For second swing :

⇒ Distance = S_1 =10(0.83)^2

For third swing :

⇒ Distance = S_2 =(10(0.83^2))(0.83) = (S_1)0.83

⇒ Distance = S_2 =10(0.83)^2

So , For n swings :

⇒ Distance = 10(0.83)^n

Therefore , the distance the child travels n  swings after the first is  Distance = 10(0.83)^n .

Express 3 log x^2 + 7 log x as a single log
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

log x^13.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the laws of logarithms

a log b = log b^a and  log a + log b = log ab:

3 log x^2 + 7 log x

= log (x^2)^3 + log x^7

= log x^6 + log x^7

= log (x^6*x^7)

= log x^13.

mariarad [96]
7-4=3
10-7=3
13-10=3
we can see that this is an arithmetic sequence with a difference of 3
the nth term=the first term +(n-1) times the difference
so a(n)=4+3(n-1)
