Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line is y = mx + c

where

m is the slope

c is the y intercept

To find the equation of a line given two points first find the slope of the line and use the formula

y - y1 = m( x - x1) to find the Equation of the line using any of the points given

Slope of the line using points

(3,2) and (4,6) is

$m = \frac{6 - 2}{4 - 3} = \frac{4}{1} = 4$

So the equation of the line using point

( 3 , 2 ) and slope 4 is

If S_1=1,S_2=8 and S_n=S_n-1+2S_n-2 whenever n≥2. Show that S_n=3⋅2n−1+2(−1)n for all n≥1.

Snezhnost [94]

You can try to show this by induction:

• According to the given closed form, we have $S_1=3\times2^{1-1}+2(-1)^1=3-2=1$ , which agrees with the initial value S₁ = 1.

• Assume the closed form is correct for all n up to n = k. In particular, we assume

$S_{k-1}=3\times2^{(k-1)-1}+2(-1)^{k-1}=3\times2^{k-2}+2(-1)^{k-1}$

and

$S_k=3\times2^{k-1}+2(-1)^k$

We want to then use this assumption to show the closed form is correct for n = k + 1, or

$S_{k+1}=3\times2^{(k+1)-1}+2(-1)^{k+1}=3\times2^k+2(-1)^{k+1}$

From the given recurrence, we know

$S_{k+1}=S_k+2S_{k-1}$

so that

$S_{k+1}=3\times2^{k-1}+2(-1)^k + 2\left(3\times2^{k-2}+2(-1)^{k-1}\right)$

$S_{k+1}=3\times2^{k-1}+2(-1)^k + 3\times2^{k-1}+4(-1)^{k-1}$

$S_{k+1}=2\times3\times2^{k-1}+(-1)^k\left(2+4(-1)^{-1}\right)$

$S_{k+1}=3\times2^k-2(-1)^k$

$S_{k+1}=3\times2^k+2(-1)(-1)^k$

$\boxed{S_{k+1}=3\times2^k+2(-1)^{k+1}}$

which is what we needed. QED

The height of a triangle is 3cm less than the length of its base and is area is 27m,find the height

Shkiper50 [21]

Area of a triangle=bh/2

27= x(x-3)/2
27= (x^2-3x)/2
54= x^2-3x
x^2-3x-54=0
(x-9)(x+6)=0

x=9, x=-6.
In this case, x must equal 9 since the base cannot be a negative number.

Final answer: Height=6 m

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

The number of small mowers are 19 and the large mowers are 11.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A garden supply store sells two types of lawn mowers. Total sales of mowers for the year were $8379.70. The total number of mowers sold the 30. The small mower cost $249.99 and the large mower costs $329.99.

Now, to find the number of each type of mower sold.

Let the number of small mower be $x.$
