Write. varible expression to describe the rule for the sequence 8,10,12,14 then find the 100th term

1 answer:

4 0

The first step would be to put in the fact that the sequence starts at 8

y = 8 + _x

The blank is going to include the difference between each number in the sequence; that is, how much it’s increasing by. To find it, get the difference between any two (consecutive!) terms.

10 - 8

12 - 10

14 - 12

All of these are equal to 2. Therefore, our gap is going to include “2”

y = 8 + 2x

To find the hundredth term, simply plug in 99 for x (the reason being that plugging in 0 for x gives us 8, but this is considered the first term. Therefore, x - 1 is the actual term)

y = 8 + 2(99)

y = 8 + 198

y = 206

The position equation for a particle is s of t equals the square root of the quantity t cubed plus 1 where s is measured in feet

vladimir1956 [14]

$\bf s(t)=\sqrt{t^3+1}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{ds}{dt}=\cfrac{1}{2}(t^3+1)^{-\frac{1}{2}}\cdot 3t^2\implies \boxed{\cfrac{ds}{dt}=\cfrac{3t^2}{2\sqrt{t^3+1}}}\leftarrow v(t)
\\\\\\
\cfrac{d^2s}{dt^2}=\cfrac{6t(2\sqrt{t^3+1})-3t^2\left( \frac{3t^2}{\sqrt{t^3+1}} \right)}{(2\sqrt{t^3+1})^2}\implies 
\cfrac{d^2s}{dt^2}=\cfrac{ \frac{6t(2\sqrt{t^3+1})-1}{\sqrt{t^3+1}} }{4(t^3+1)}$

$\bf \cfrac{d^2s}{dt^2}=\cfrac{6t[2(t^3+1)]-1}{4(t^3+1)\sqrt{t^3+1}}\implies 
\boxed{\cfrac{d^2s}{dt^2}=\cfrac{12t^4+12t-1}{4t^3+4\sqrt{t^3+1}}}\leftarrow a(t)\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\a(2)=\cfrac{215~ft^2}{44~sec}$
