Answer:

4 m/s downwards

Step-by-step explanation:

Velocity is given by dividing the distance by time taken to cover the diatance. Therefore, expressed as v=d/t

The distance is given as 24 m but the time given covers only half the distance. Therefore, the distance is 0.5*21=12 m

Time taken is given as 3 s

Substituting 12 m for d and 3 s for t then

V=12/3= 4 m/s

Velocity must have direction component hence velocity is 4 m/s downwards

Write an explicit formula for an,the Nth term of the sequence 4,12,36
Rudik [331]

Answer:

3^{n}+3^{n-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the sequence is geometric (it multiplies the previous number each time). The nth term sequence would be x^n + yn

Because the sequence multiplies by 3 each time, The base number in that equation would be 3^n +yn.

So 3^n of the equation would be:
3, 9, 27.

Compare the 2 equations:
4, 12, 36

3, 9 ,27

The difference between the 2 equations is: 1, 3, 9 which itself is a geometric sequence so the nth term of this new equation is: 3^{n-1}.

Combine these 2 equations together and you get:

3^{n}+3^{n-1}.

Find the slope given the points (-5,-3) and (2,4)
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

The slope of the line is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given two coordinate points:

  • (-5, -3)
  • (2, 4)

We can use the rate of change formula to find the slope of the points.

  • \displaystyle \frac{\triangle y}{\triangle x}

In mathematics, coordinate pairs are labeled as:

(x_1, y_1) \ \text{and} \ (x_2, y_2)

Therefore, we can relabel our points:

  • x_1 = -5
  • y_1 = -3
  • x_2 = 2
  • y_2 = 4

After we do this, we can expand the rate of change formula:

\displaystyle m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Now, we can use simple substitution to solve for m, or the slope.

\displaystyle m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\m = \frac{4-(-3)}{2-(-5)}\\\\m = \frac{7}{7}\\\\m = 1

Therefore, the slope of the line is 1.
