ANSWER:

Let r = no. of points Rea scores = 18 points

Let b = no. of points Ben scores

A sequence can be generated by using fn = 2f(n-1)+1, where f1 = 4 and n is a whole number greater than 1. What are the first fou
hoa [83]

Answer:

<em>{9,19,39,79}</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Recursive Sequences</u>

The recursive sequence can be identified because each term is given as a function of one or more of the previous terms. Being n an integer greater than 1, then:

f(n) = 2f(n-1)+1

f(1) = 4

To find the first four terms of the sequence, we set n to the values {2,3,4,5}

  • For n=2

f(2) = 2f(1)+1

Since f(1)=4:

f(2) = 2*4+1

f(2) = 9

  • For n=3

f(3) = 2f(2)+1

Since f(2)=9:

f(3) = 2*9+1

f(3) = 19

  • For n=4

f(4) = 2f(3)+1

Since f(3)=19:

f(4) = 2*19+1

f(4) = 39

  • For n=5

f(5) = 2f(4)+1

Since f(4)=39:

f(5) = 2*39+1

f(5) = 79

Using pythagorean theorem find a, and b, where a is twice of b and the hypotonuse is 5√5
patriot [66]
Measure of Hypotaneous = 5√5

And it's already given that b = 2a

By using pythagoras theorem:

a²+ b² = (5√5)²

Let's substitute for b as 2a in above equation we'll get:

a² + (2a)² = (5√5)²

a² + 4a² = 125
5a² = 125
a² = 25
a = √25 = 5


Therefore,
a= 5
and
b = 2a = 2(5) = 10.

Write an equation describing the relationship of the given variables. y varies inversely as the cube root of x and when x=125, y
notka56 [123]

Answer:

y = 40 / x^1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

y α x^1/3

y = k * 1 / x^1/3

y = k / x^1/3

When x = 125 ; y = 8

8 = k / 125^1/3

Cube root of 125 = 5

8 = k / 5

8 * 5 = k ; k = 40

Hence, expression becomes :

y = 40 / x^1/3

Need some help with this question please.
Ksivusya [100]
Use Pythagorean theorem
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
Plug in the info
b = 53, a = 41
41^2 + 53^2 = c^2
1681 + 2809 = c^2
c^2 = 4490
Squareroot of 4490 = 67.007
Perimeter = adding all sides
53m + 41m + 67.01m = 161.01 m

Solution: 161.01 meters
