Answer:

$u_{n} = 2n^{2} -4n-3$

Step-by-step explanation:

a +b + c = - 5 First term in sequence

3a + b = 2 Difference between first two terms

2a = 4 Difference between the difference of the first two terms and the second third terms (the difference between -5 and -3 is 2 the difference between -3 and 3 is 6; the difference between 6 and two is 4)

2a = 4 so a = 2; 3(2) + b = 2 → 6 + b = 2 so b = -4; 2 - 4 + c = -5 → -2 + c = -5 so c = -3

Answer:

the pattern is +2, +6, +10, +14, +18 etc

so its in increment of 4

the rest is trivial

Answer:

5,095,068

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for this problem is x^y * z where x is the percentage, Y is the number of years, and Z is the original deposit. Multiply 1.9^8 * 30,000 which becomes; 5,095,068.

This was given to me during a summative test and the teacher didn't bother giving me the correction. I just cannot figure it out

Dmitry [639]

Base be y

ATQ

$\\ \sf\longmapsto xy=6050\dots 1$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 2(x+y)=220\implies x+y=110\dots 2$

Now

$\\ \sf\longmapsto (x+y)^2=x^2+y^2+2xy$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 110^2-2(6050)=x^2+y^2$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 12100-12100=x^2+y^2$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto x^2+y^2=0\dots(3)$

From all equations

$\\ \sf\longmapsto (x-y)^2=x^2+y^2-2xy$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto (x-y)^2=0-2(6050)$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto (x-y)^2=-12100$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto (x-y)=110\dots(4)$

Now

Adding 3 and 4

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 2x=220$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto x=110m$

One side won't be covered hence

y=2(110)=220m

What is the value of the expression if m = –5 and n = 3? Negative StartFraction 24 Over 25 EndFraction Negative StartFraction 4

KatRina [158]

You can use the fact that a number raised to negative powers can be written as 1 divided by that number raised to positive number.

The value of the given expression when m = -5 and n= 3 is $-\dfrac{2}{5}$

<h3>How can we rewrite a number raised to negative power?</h3>

Suppose we've got $a^{-b}$ . then it can be rewritten as

$a^{-b} = \dfrac{1}{a^b}$

It is because $a^0 = 1$ for any a except 0, and that $\dfrac{a^0}{a^b} = a^{0-b} = a^{-b}$

If base are same and there is multiplication, then there will be addition in power.

Also, know the fact that if base are same and there is division, there will be subtraction in power(subtracting since that denominator when goes up, its power gets negated(gets negative sign to the existing power)

Thus,

$a^b \timesa ^c = a^{b+c}\\\\\dfrac{a^b}{a^c} = a^{b-c}$

<h3>Using above method to simplify the given expression before evaluating</h3>

The given expression is $\dfrac{2m^{-1}n^5}{3m^0n^4} = \dfrac{2n^5}{3m^0m^1n^4} = \dfrac{2n^5}{3mn^4} = \dfrac{2n^{5-4}}{3m} = \dfrac{2n^1}{3m} = \dfrac{2n}{3m}$

Putting m = -5 and n=3, we get:

$\dfrac{2\times 3}{3 \times -5} = -\dfrac{2}{5}$

Thus,

The value of the given expression when m = -5 and n= 3 is $-\dfrac{2}{5}$
