The amount that it rises each minute forms a geometric sequence...
a(n)=ar^(n-1), and we know that a=100 ft and r=1/2 so
a(n)=100(1/2)^(n-1)
And the sum of a geometric sequence is:
s(n)=a(1-r^n)/(1-r)
s(n)=100(1-0.5^n)/(1-0.5)
s(n)=200(1-0.5^n)
So we can call these sums the height function
h(t)=200(1-0.5^t)
So after 5 minutes...
h(5)=200(1-0.5^5)
h(5)=193.75 ft
Answer:
The discriminant of the quadratic equation is -7.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following quadratic equation in the question:

Comparing to general quadratic equation:

We have to find the discriminant of the quadratic equation.
Formula:

Putting values, we get,

Thus, the discriminant of the quadratic equation is -7.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Yes, it is a line of slope 1.
J

j=agv where a is a constant of proportionality.
j=1 when g=4 and v=5
1=a*4*5
1=20a
a=1/20
a= 0.05
j=0.05gv
When g=10 and v=9,
j=0.05*10*9
j=0.5*9
j=4.5
