Larry is using an online calculator to calculate the outputs f(n) for different inputs n. The ordered pairs below show Larry's i

nputs and the corresponding outputs displayed by the calculator:
(1, 5), (2, 9), (3, 13), (4, 17)

Which of the following functions best represents the rule that the calculator uses to display the outputs?

a
f(n) = 5n − 1

b
f(n) = 5n + 1

c
f(n) = 4n + 1

d
f(n) = 4n − 1

Answer:

Option c:

f(n)=4n+1

Step-by-step explanation:

The functional relationship between two variables can be easily found if it's represented as a line.

Larry's online calculator collects these points

(1, 5), (2, 9), (3, 13), (4, 17)

We can see there is a linear relation because every time the first component increases by 1, the second increases by 4.

The equation of a line is given by

f(n)=m.n+b

Where m is the slope of the line and can be computed as

\displaystyle m=\frac{d-b}{c-a}

Where (a,b), (c,d) are two known points of the line. Let's use the first two points (1, 5), (2, 9)

\displaystyle m=\frac{9-5}{2-1}=4

We now know that

f(n)=4n+b

To compute the value of b, we use one of the points again, for example (1,5):

5=4(1)+b => b=1

The relation is

f(n)=4n+1

We can test our results by using other points like (3,13)

f(3)=4(3)+1=13

And also

f(4)=4(4)+1=17

All points belong to the same function or rule

f(n)=4n+1

What is the surface area of the composite figure
leva [86]

Answer:

The answer is 672.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, first let's find the surface area of the rectangular prism. To do that, multiply each dimension with each (times 2 | just in case you don't understand [what I'm talking about is down below]).

8 x 8 x 2 = 128

8 x 11 x 2 = 176

8 x 11 x 2 = 176

Then, add of the products together to find the surface area of the rectangular prism.

176 + 176 + 128 = 480

Now, let's find the surface area of the square pyramid. Now, for this particular pyramid, let's deal with the triangles first, then the square. Like we did with the rectangular prism above, multiply each dimension with each other (but dividing the product by 2 | in case you don't understand [what i'm talking about is down below]).

8 x 8 = 64.

64 ÷ 2 = 32.

SInce there are 4 triangles, multiply the quotient by 4 to find the surface area of the total number of triangles (what i'm talking about is down below).

32 x 4 = 128.

Now, let's tackle the square. All you have to do is find the area of the square.

8 x 8 = 64.

To find the surface area of the total square pyramid, add both surface areas.

128 + 64 = 192.

Finally, add both surface areas of the two 3-D shapes to find the surface area of the composite figure.

192 + 480 = 672.

Therefore, 672 is the answer.
