That's a number to the second power or squared or an exponent

Celine works twice as many hours as she spends in class she studies 4 hours for every hour in class to maintain her health and s

natita [175]

Answer:

she will spend 10 hours in class 40 hours studying and 20 hours working

Step-by-step explanation:

if u simply start at 1 hour of class u get to see the pattern example:

class. study. work

1 4. 2

she works twice as long as she is in class and studies 4 times longer than in class so for every hour she is in class do the math for this condition. for every class hour multiply by 4 to get her study time and then multiply her class hour by 2 to get her work hours. keep going until the total time of all activities adds to 70

The function g(x) is a transformation of the quadratic parent function, fx):

77julia77 [94]

Answer: D

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph is narrower, so the coefficient of $x^2$ has an absolute value more than 1.

Eliminate B and C.

Also, because g(x) opens down, the coefficient of $x^2$ is negative.

Eliminate A.

This leaves D as the answer.

How much water would a 8 ft by 25 ft rectangle hold

ziro4ka [17]

what is the height? in order to calculate the amount of water a rectangular prism can hold, you must know the volume of that rectangular prism, therefore needing three unit factors, including the length, width, and height.... you gave me two factors, the length and the width, so i cannot help you

This math my graduation depends on it

In-s [12.5K]

In an arithmetic sequence, consecutive terms have a fixed distance d between them. If a₁ is the first term, then

2nd term = a₂ = a₁ + d

3rd term = a₃ = a₂ + d = a₁ + 2d

4th term = a₄ = a₃ + d = a₁ + 3d

and so on, up to

nth term = $a_n = a_{n-1} + d = a_{n-2} + 2d = a_{n-3} + 3d = \cdots = a_1 + (n-1)d$

so that every term in the sequence can be expressed in terms of a₁ and d.

6. It's kind of hard to tell, but it looks like you're given a₁₃ = -53 and a₃₅ = -163.

We have

a₁₃ = a₁ + 12d = -53

a₃₅ = a₁ + 34d = -163

Solve for a₁ and d. Eliminating a₁ and solving for d gives

(a₁ + 12d) - (a₁ + 34d) = -53 - (-163)

-22d = 110

d = -5

and solving for a₁, we get

a₁ + 12•(-5) = -53

a₁ - 60 = -53

a₁ = 7

Then the nth term is recursively given by

$a_n = a_{n-1}-5$

and explicitly by

$a_n = 7 + (n-1)(-5) = 12 - 5n$

7. We do the same thing here. Use the known terms to find a₁ and d :

a₁₉ = a₁ + 18d = 15

a₃₈ = a₁ + 37d = 72

⇒ (a₁ + 18d) - (a₁ + 37d) = 15 - 72

⇒ -19d = -57

⇒ d = 3

⇒ a₁ + 18•3 = 15

⇒ a₁ = -39

Then the nth term is recursively obtained by

$a_n = a_{n-1}+3$

and explicitly by

$a_n = -39 + (n-1)\cdot3 = 3n-42$

8. I won't both reproducing the info I included in my answer to your other question about geometric sequences.

We're given that the 1st term is 3 and the 2nd term is 12, so the ratio is r = 12/3 = 4.

Then the next three terms in the sequence are

192 • 4 = 768

768 • 4 = 3072

3072 • 4 = 12,288

The recursive rule with a₁ = 3 and r = 4 is

$a_n = 4a_{n-1}$

and the explicit rule would be

$a_n = 3\cdot4^{n-1}$
