For this case, the first thing we should do is observe that we have a linear equation.
 Therefore, we have a sequence of the form:
 an = k * n

 Where, k: is the slope of the line.
 We have then:
 k = (an2 - an1) / (n2 - n1)

 k = (42 - 21) / (2 - 1)

 k = (21) / (1)

 k = 21
 Substituting we have:
 an = 21 * n

 Answer:
 
An explicit formula for the sequence of the number of bacterium is:
 
an = 21 * n

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

  a) V = 4w²h

  b) SA = 4w² +10wh

  c) SA = 4w² +37.5/w

  d) C = 40w² +225/w

Step-by-step explanation:

The relevant formulas are ...

  V = LWH

  base area = LW

  lateral area = H(2(L+W))

__

a) The length is 4 times the width, so the volume is ...

  V = (4w)(w)(h)

  V = 4w²h

__

b) The total surface area is the sum of the base area and the lateral area:

  SA = base area + lateral area

  SA = (4w)(w) + 2h(4w +w)

  SA = 4w² +10wh

__

c) The volume is 15 m³, so the height in meters in terms of the width in meters is ...

  15 = 4w²h

  h = 15/(4w²)

Then the surface area is ...

  SA = 4w² +10w(15/(4w²))

  SA = 4w² +37.5/w

__

d) The equation we have for surface area has one term for base area and a second term for lateral area. We can apply the cost factors to those terms to get the cost of materials:

  C = 10(4w²) +6(37.5/w)

  C = 40w² +225/w

Answer:

x = 2π3

Step-by-step explanation:

csc(x)csc(x) , x=πx=π

3x+2y+zx+y+z3x+2y+zx+y+z , x=2x=2 , y=3y=3 , z=1z=1

cot(3x)cot(3x) , x=2π3

Hope this helps :)

Dillon says that 4b and -2b are not like terms because 4b is positive and -2b is negative. Is he correct? Explain.

No, that is not a factor to make it not a like term.

Len [333]

Answer:

F = $11,421.90

Final value after 5 years F = $11,421.90

Complete question;

You purchased a vehicle for $32,000. It's value will depreciate at a rate of 18.62%. What will it's value be in 5 years, when you finally have it paid off

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Initial value P = $32,000

Depreciation rate r = 18.62% = 0.1862

Time t = 5

Final value = F

Using the compound depreciation formula;

F = P(1 - r)^t

Substituting the values;

F = $32,000(1 - 0.1862)^5

F = $11,421.90

Final value F = $11,421.90
