2f(2Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(1)=8

f(2)= 2(8) = 16

f(3) = 2(16) = 32

f(4) = 2(32) = 64

f(5) = 2(64) =128

Answer:

A = 16π cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

We require to find the radius r

Given circumference C = 8π , then

2πr = 8π ( divide both sides by 2π )

r = 4 , then

A = πr² = π × 4² = 16π cm²

117. Sami opens an account and deposits $100 into it at the end of each month. The account earns 2% per year compounded monthly.

Sergio [31]

Answer:

The explicit function is:

$S_{n} =Pz^{n-1} +C(\frac{z^{n-1}-1}{z-1} )$

where

$z=(1+\frac{0.02}{12})$

and we calculate S12:

$S_{12} = $1211.06$

Step-by-step explanation:

Expanding a few steps of the compound interest:

$S_{1}=100\\S_{2}=S_{1}(1+\frac{0.02}{12})+100\\S_{3}=S_{2}(1+\frac{0.02}{12})+100\\...\\S_{n}=S_{n-1}(1+\frac{0.02}{12})+100$

We can write:

$(1+\frac{0.02}{12})=z$

$100=C$ for deposits

Then, expanding the previous equations would yield:

$S_{1}=C\\S_{2}=Cz + C\\S_{3}=Cz^{2}+Cz + C\\S_{n}=Cz^{n-1} +...+Cz+C$

This is a geometric series form, which can be simplified to:

$S_{n}=C(\frac{z^{n}-1}{z-1} )$

plugin in the values for the 12 month gives:

$S_{12}=100(\frac{(1+\frac{0.02}{12})^{12} -1}{\frac{0.02}{12}})=1211.0613$

20 Points - A mathematical model estimates sales (in thousands of dollars) as a function of time t (in years) as S(t) = 5t/t+1,

adelina 88 [10]

The first choice is the correct answer. Note that for S(t) = 5t/(t+1):At t = 0, S = 0At t = 1, S = 5(1/2)At t = 2, S = 5(2/3)And as t increases, S approaches 5. (The pattern 1/2, 2/3, 3/4...gets closer and closer to 1).
