What is the answer to the problem?

1. Ruth Lockwood earns $2,917 a month as a supervisor for Acme

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

a. 25%

b. $1560

c. $130

Step-by-step explanation:

a.

If 75% is paid by company, the rest is paid by Ruth.

Out of 100%, 75% is paid by company, so Ruth pays 100 - 75 = 25%

b.

Per year, the total amount paid is 6240, but Ruth pas 25% of this. So,

25% = 0.25

To get the answer, we multiply 0.25 with 6240.

0.25 * 6240 = 1560

So, $1560 is paid by Ruth annually.

c.

Since 1560 is paid annually (in 12 months), each month Ruth has to pay:

1560/12 = $130

Hence, $130 is deducted each month from her paycheck

I need help with this.

Answer:

61.4

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of two semicircles of diameter 10 is the circumference of a circle of that diameter:

C = πd = 10π ≈ 31.4

The perimeter includes that length plus the lengths of two straight sides that are 15 units each.

P = 31.4 + 2×15

P = 61.4 . . . . units

State whether each sequence is arithmetic and justify your answer. If the sequence is arithmetic, write a recursive and an expli

nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

Part A

$f(n)=52-12(n-1)$

$f(n)=\left\{\begin{matrix}52\: \:if \: \:n=1 & \\f(n+1)+12& if\: n\geq 2 \end{matrix}\right.$

Part B

$(2,4,8,16,32)\: \:$ Geometric Sequence

Part C

1/4,3/4,5/4,7/4,9/4

$g(n)=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{2}{4}(n-1)\\f(n)=\left\{\begin{matrix}1/4if \: \:n=1 & \\ f(n+1)+2/4& if\: n\geq 2 \end{matrix}\right$

Part D:

$h(n)=1.1+0.4(n-1)\\h(n)=\left\{\begin{matrix}1.1 & if\:n=1 \\ h(n+1)+0.4 & if\:n\geq 2\end{matrix}\right$

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, an Arithmetic Sequence holds the same difference between each following number.

Part A

$(52,40, 28, 16)\\52-40=12\\40-28=12\\28-16=12\\d=12$

Explicit Formula

To write an explicit formula is to write it as function.

$f(n)=52-12(n-1)$

Recursive Formula

To write it as recursive formula, is to write it as recurrence given to some restrictions:

$f(n)=\left\{\begin{matrix}52\: \:if \: \:n=1 & \\f(n+1)+12& if\: n\geq 2 \end{matrix}\right.$

Part B

$(2,4,8,16,32)\: \:$

Geometric Sequence, since 2*2=4 8*2=16 and 16*2=32 and 8+2=10 8+16=24

Part C

$(\frac{1}{4},\frac{3}{4},\frac{5}{4},\frac{7}{4},\frac{9}{4})\\\$

Arithmetic Sequence, difference

$d=\frac{2}{4}$

Explicit Formula:

$g(n)=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{2}{4}(n-1)$

Recursive Formula

$g(n)=\left\{\begin{matrix}\frac{1}{4} &if\:n=1 \\ g(n+1)+\frac{2}{4} &if\: n\geq 2\end{matrix}\right.$

Part D

(1.1,1.5,1.9,2.3,2.7) Arithmetic Sequence, difference d=0.4

Explicit formula

$h(n)=1.1+0.4(n-1)\\$

Recursive Formula

$h(n)=\left\{\begin{matrix}1.1 &if\:n=1 \\ h(n+1)+0.4 &if\: n\geq 2\end{matrix}\right.$

C) How could you use estimation to determine if your answer is reasonable? Explain.

Sliva [168]

Estimation would give you an answer close to the actual answer so you can see if your answer is reasonable depending on how close the estimate is
