Recall the scenario about Eric's weekly wages in the lesson practice section. Eric's boss have been very impressed with his work

. He has given him a $2 raise and now Eric earns $12 an hour. His boss also has increased Eric's hours to 10 to 25 hours per week. The restrictions remain the same; he needs to work a full-hour in order to get the hourly wage working 1.5 hour does not pay him for 1.5 hours but for one hour. Tasks: Consider the scenario and restrictions and interpret the work hour and potential earning relation as a function. Express the relation in the following formats: 1. Function equation 2. Domain of the function in the set notation (Would domain (work hours) be infinite?(write the domain in the set notation) 3. Range of the function in the set notation (Would the range (weekly wage) be infinite(write the range in the set notation) 4. Sketch the function and plot the points for his earnings.

Answer:  

1)\quad f(x)=\bigg\{\begin{array}{ll}12x&0\leq x

2) D: x = [0, 24]

3) R: y = [0, 384]

4) see graph

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

Eric's regular wage is $12 per hour for all hours less than 9 hours.

The minimum number of hours Eric can work each day is 0.

f(x) = 12x    for   0 ≤ x < 9

Eric's overtime wage is $18 per hour for 9 hours and greater.

The maximum number of hours Eric can work each day is 24 (because there are only 24 hours in a day).

f(x) = 18(x - 8) + 12(8)

    = 18x - 144 + 96

    = 18x - 48           for 9 ≤ x ≤ 24

The daily wage where x represents the number of hours worked can be displayed in function format as follows:

f(x)=\bigg\{\begin{array}{ll}12x&0\leq x

2) Domain represents the x-values (number of hours Eric can work).

The minimum hours he can work in one day is 0 and the maximum he can work in one day is 24.

D:  0 ≤ x ≤ 24        →        D: x = [0, 24]

3) Range represents the y-values (wage Eric will earn).

Eric's wage depends on the number of hours he works. Use the Domain (given above) to find the wage.

The minimum hours he can work in one day is 0.

f(x) = 12x

f(0) = 12(0)

     =  0

The maximum hours he can work in one day is 24 <em>(although unlikely, it is theoretically possible).</em>

f(x) = 18x - 48

f(24) = 18(24) - 48

       = 432 - 48

       = 384

D:  0 ≤ y ≤ 384        →        D: x = [0, 384]

4) see graph.

Notice that there is an open dot at x = 9 for f(x) = 12x

and a closed dot at x = 9 for f(x) = 18x - 48

How many terms of the arithmetic sequence {1,22,43,64,85,…} will give a sum of 2332? Show all steps including the formulas used
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

There's a slight problem with your question, but we'll get to that...

Consecutive terms of the sequence are separated by a fixed difference of 21 (22 = 1 + 21, 43 = 22 + 21, 64 = 43 + 21, and so on), so the <em>n</em>-th term of the sequence, <em>a</em> (<em>n</em>), is given recursively by

• <em>a</em> (1) = 1

• <em>a</em> (<em>n</em>) = <em>a</em> (<em>n</em> - 1) + 21 … … … for <em>n</em> > 1

We can find the explicit rule for the sequence by iterative substitution:

<em>a</em> (2) = <em>a</em> (1) + 21

<em>a</em> (3) = <em>a</em> (2) + 21 = (<em>a</em> (1) + 21) + 21 = <em>a</em> (1) + 2×21

<em>a</em> (4) = <em>a</em> (3) + 21 = (<em>a</em> (1) + 2×21) + 21 = <em>a</em> (1) + 3×21

and so on, with the general pattern

<em>a</em> (<em>n</em>) = <em>a</em> (1) + 21 (<em>n</em> - 1) = 21<em>n</em> - 20

Now, we're told that the sum of some number <em>N</em> of terms in this sequence is 2332. In other words, the <em>N</em>-th partial sum of the sequence is

<em>a</em> (1) + <em>a</em> (2) + <em>a</em> (3) + … + <em>a</em> (<em>N</em> - 1) + <em>a</em> (<em>N</em>) = 2332

or more compactly,

\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^N a(n) = 2332

It's important to note that <em>N</em> must be some positive integer.

Replace <em>a</em> (<em>n</em>) by the explicit rule:

\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^N (21n-20) = 2332

Expand the sum on the left as

\displaystyle 21 \sum_{n=1}^N n-20\sum_{n=1}^N1 = 2332

and recall the formulas,

\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^n1=\underbrace{1+1+\cdots+1}_{n\text{ times}}=n

\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^nk=1+2+3+\cdots+n=\frac{n(n+1)}2

So the sum of the first <em>N</em> terms of <em>a</em> (<em>n</em>) is such that

21 × <em>N</em> (<em>N</em> + 1)/2 - 20<em>N</em> = 2332

Solve for <em>N</em> :

21 (<em>N</em> ² + <em>N</em>) - 40<em>N</em> = 4664

21 <em>N</em> ² - 19 <em>N</em> - 4664 = 0

Now for the problem I mentioned at the start: this polynomial has no rational roots, and instead

<em>N</em> = (19 ± √392,137)/42 ≈ -14.45 or 15.36

so there is no positive integer <em>N</em> for which the first <em>N</em> terms of the sum add up to 2332.

The angles of a pentagon are x, x − 5 0 , x + 100 , 2x + 150and 2x + 300 . Find all the angles.
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

The interior angles are 70°,65°,80°,155° and 170°

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the sum of the interior angles of the pentagon

The sum is equal to

S=(n-2)*180°

where

n is the number of sides of polygon

n=5 (pentagon)

substitute

S=(5-2)*180°=540°

step 2

Find the value of x

Sum the given angles and equate to 540

x+(x-5)+(x+10)+(2x+15)+(2x+30)=540°

7x+50=540°

7x=490°

x=70°

step 3

Find all the angles

x=70°

(x-5)=(70-5)=65°

(x+10)=(70+10)=80°

(2x+15)=(2*70+15)=155°

(2x+30)=(2*70+30)=170°
