Tasya [4]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

<u>The first five terms of the sequence are 5, 7, 9, 11 and 13.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

The first five terms of the sequence are:

a₁ = 2 * (2 - 1) + 3 = 2 * 1 + 3 = 2 + 3 = 5

a₂ = 2 * (3 - 1) + 3 = 2 * 2 + 3 = 4 + 3 = 7

a₃ = 2 * (4 - 1) + 3 = 2 * 3 + 3 = 6 + 3 = 9

a₄ = 2 * (5 - 1) + 3 = 2 * 4 + 3 = 8 + 3 = 11

a₅ = 2 * (6 - 1) + 3 = 2 * 5 + 3 = 10 + 3 = 13

<u>The first five terms of the sequence are 5, 7, 9, 11 and 13.</u>

Classify each number according to which sets of numbers it belongs in:
True [87]

Answer:

Natural, integer, rational:  10, 9, 3(12-\frac{2}{2})

Integer, rational:  -6

Rational:  3.7, 3.3333333

Irrational: \pi, 1.41421356

Step-by-step explanation:

Given numbers:

10,\pi, -6, 3.3333333333, 9, 3.7, 3(12-2/2),1.41421356

To classify them in natural integer, whole rational or irrational numbers.

Solution:

Natural numbers are whole numbers stating from 1.

{1,2,3,4,5,6..........}

Whole numbers are integers starting from 0.

{0,1,2,3,4,5...........}

Integers are all real numbers that do not include decimals or fractions.

{.............-4,-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3,4.........}

Rational numbers are those numbers which can be represented as fraction of whole numbers. For example:

-1.5=-\frac{3}{2}

0.1111.....=\frac{1}{9}

5=\frac{5}{1}

Irrational numbers are those numbers which cannot be represented as simple fractions.

<em>Based on the above definitions, we can classify numbers.</em>

1) 10

Natural, Integer, Rational

2) \pi

Irrational

3) -6

Integer, Rational

4) 3.33333333333

Rational

5) 9

Natural, Integer, Rational

6) 3.7

Rational

7) 3(12-\frac{2}{2})=3(12-1)=3(11)=33

Natural, Integer, Rational

8) 1.41421356

Irrational

Find cos θ given that cos 2θ = 5/6 and 0 ≤ θ &lt; π/2. Give an exact answer
trasher [3.6K]
\bf \textit{Double Angle Identities}&#10;\\ \quad \\&#10;sin(2\theta)=2sin(\theta)cos(\theta)&#10;\\ \quad \\&#10;cos(2\theta)=&#10;\begin{cases}&#10;cos^2(\theta)-sin^2(\theta)\\&#10;1-2sin^2(\theta)\\&#10;\boxed{2cos^2(\theta)-1}&#10;\end{cases}&#10;\\ \quad \\&#10;tan(2\theta)=\cfrac{2tan(\theta)}{1-tan^2(\theta)}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;

\bf cos(2\theta)=\cfrac{5}{6}\implies 2cos^2(\theta)-1=\cfrac{5}{6}\implies 2cos^2(\theta)=\cfrac{5}{6}+1&#10;\\\\\\&#10;2cos^2(\theta)=\cfrac{11}{6}\implies cos^2(\theta)=\cfrac{11}{12}\implies cos(\theta)=\pm\sqrt{\cfrac{11}{12}}


now, bear in mind, the square root gives us +/- versions, so, which is it? well, we know the angle is in the range of "<span>0 ≤ θ < π/2", that simply means the 1st quadrant, so, we'll use the positive one then

</span>\bf cos(\theta)=\cfrac{\sqrt{11}}{\sqrt{12}}\implies cos(\theta)=\cfrac{\sqrt{11}}{2\sqrt{3}}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\textit{now, let's rationalize the denominator}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{\sqrt{11}}{2\sqrt{3}}\cdot \cfrac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}}\implies \cfrac{\sqrt{11}\cdot \sqrt{3}}{2\sqrt{3^2}}\implies \cfrac{\sqrt{11\cdot 33}}{2\cdot 3}\implies \boxed{\cfrac{\sqrt{33}}{6}}<span>
