HELP ASAP What is the explicit formula for this sequence 5,2,-1,-4

Mathematics
1 answer:
Setler79 [48]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

For an nth term U(n) = a + (n - 1)d

n = number of terms

a = first term

d = common difference

a = 5

d = 2 - 5 = - 3

U(n) = 5 + (n -1)-3

= 5 - 3n + 3

= 8 - 3n

The formula for the sequence is 8 - 3n

Hope this helps

sergij07 [2.7K]

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>this is given that the figure is a hexagon</h3><h3>let give a name to the given hexagon be ABCDEF</h3>

<h3>Angle a + B + C + D = 720 ( Ls sum pro. of hexagon)</h3><h3>3x-20+3x-20+4x+4x+3x-20+3x-20 = 720</h3><h3>3x+3x+3x+3x+4x+4x-20-20-20-20 = 720 (rearranging)</h3><h3>20x - 80 = 720</h3><h3>20x = 720 + 80 </h3><h3>x=800/20</h3>

<h2>x = 40 degrees </h2>

<h3>3x-20 = 100</h3><h3>4x = 160</h3>

A calculator is required to obtain the final answer on this question. A solid metal sphere at room temperature 20oC is dropped i
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

T = 47.1875°C

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Surrounding temp, Ts = 100°C

Initial Temperature ,T0= 20°C

Increase in temperature = 15°C

Final temperature, T = 20 + 15 = 35°C

Time, t = 9 seconds

Let's take Newton's law of cooling:

T - Ts = (T_0 - Ts)e^k^t

We'll solve for k

35 - 100 = (20 - 100)e^9^k

-65 = (-80)e^9^k

Divide both sides by -5

13 = (16)e^9^k

9k = ln (\frac{13}{16})

k = \frac{1}{9} ln (\frac{13}{16})

k = -0.02307104053

Let's now find the temperature of the ball after 18 seconds in boiling water.

Use the Newton's equation again:

T - Ts = (T_0 - Ts)e^k^t

T - 100 = (20 - 100)e^-0.0^2^3^0^7^1^0^4^0^5^3^*^1^8

T - 100 = (-80)e^-0.0^2^3^0^7^1^0^4^0^5^3^*^1^8

T - 100= -52.8125

T = 100 - 52.8125

T = 47.1875°C

Temperature of the ball after 18 seconds in boiling water is 47.1875°C

A helicopter is flying above a town. the local high school is directly to the east of the helicopter at a 20° angle of depressio
guapka [62]
Answer: 4.5 miles

Explanation:

When you draw the situation you find two triangles.

1) Triangle to the east of the helicopter

a) elevation angle from the high school to the helicopter = depression angle from the helicopter to the high school = 20°

b) hypotensue = distance between the high school and the helicopter

c) opposite-leg to angle 20° = heigth of the helicopter

d) adyacent leg to the angle 20° = horizontal distance between the high school and the helicopter = x

2) triangle to the west of the helicopter

a) elevation angle from elementary school to the helicopter = depression angle from helicopter to the elementary school = 62°

b)  distance between the helicopter and the elementary school = hypotenuse

c) opposite-leg to angle 62° = height of the helicopter

d) adyacent-leg to angle 62° = horizontal distance between the elementary school and the helicopter = 5 - x

3) tangent ratios

a) triangle with the helicpoter and the high school

tan 20° = Height / x ⇒ height = x tan 20°

b) triangle with the helicopter and the elementary school

tan 62° = Height / (5 - x) ⇒ height = (5 - x) tan 62°

c) equal the height from both triangles:

x tan 20° = (5 - x) tan 62°

x tan 20° = 5 tan 62° - x tan 62°

x tan 20° + x tan 62° = 5 tan 62°

x  (tan 20° + tan 62°) = 5 tan 62°

⇒ x = 5 tant 62° / ( tan 20° + tan 62°)

⇒ x = 4,19 miles

=> height = x tan 20° = 4,19 tan 20° = 1,525 miles

4) Calculate the hypotenuse of this triangle:

hipotenuese ² = x² + height ² = (4.19)² + (1.525)² = 19.88 miles²

hipotenuse = 4.46 miles

Rounded to the nearest tenth = 4.5 miles

That is the distance between the helicopter and the high school.
