A 160-lb man carries a 5-lb can of paint up a helical staircase that encircles a silo with radius 20 ft. If the silo is 90 ft hi

Weight of man and paint = 160 + 5 = 165 total pounds.

Gravitational force is independent of the path taken so we can ignore the radius of the silo.

Work done = total weight x height

The problem says he climbs to the top so overall height is 90 feet

Work = 165 lbs x 90 ft = 14,850 ft-lbs

N+5 - n-10=1 The n=5 and n-10 are in square root symbols
patriot [66]
D:x\geq-5 \wedge x\geq10\\
D:x\geq10\\\\
\sqrt{n+5}-\sqrt{n-10}=1\\
\sqrt{n+5}=1+\sqrt{n-10}\\
n+5=1+2\sqrt{n-10}+n-10\\
2\sqrt{n-10}=14\\
\sqrt{n-10}=7\\
n-10=49\\
n=59

Consider a sequence given by the formula f(n)=3n-1 starting with n=1. Generate the first 5 terms of the sequence
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

The first 5 terms are 2, 5, 8, 11, 14.

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. You use the formula to find out each term.
  2. f(n)=3n-1 starting with n=1. If n=1 that is the 1st term, if n=2 that is the 2nd term, and so on. n means what number term it is.
  3. Now to find each term:
  • n=1: f(1)= 3(1)-1= 3-1= 2 The 1st term is 2
  • n=2: f(2)= 3(2)-1= 6-1= 5 The 2nd term is 5
  • n=3: f(3)= 3(3)-1= 9-1=8 The 3rd term is 8
  • n=4: f(4)= 4(3)-1= 12-1= 11 The 4th term is 11
  • n=5: f(5)= 5(3)-1= 15-1= 14 The 5th term is 14

So the first 5 terms are 2,5,8,11,14
