A recipe has a ratio of 2 cups of sugar to 6 cups of flour. How many cups of flour are used for each cup of sugar in the recipe?

statuscvo [17]

The ratio 2 to 6 can be reduced to 1 to 3. That means for every 3 cups of flour there is one cup of sugar.

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

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

3. Lonnie has a gift card worth $600 for a local entertainment store. Movies cost $20 each and newly released video games cost $

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

8 movies and 6 video games

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Gift\ Card = \$600$

$Movies =\ $20$

$Video\ Game = \$50$

$Minimum\ Items = 13$

Required

Determine the items Lonnie can afford

To solve this question, we make use of trial by error method by taking the options one at a time:

Option 1: 6 movies and 4 video games

This option can not be considered because the number of items is not up to the minimum Lonnte must purchase.

Option 2: 14 movies and 7 video games

$Cost = 14 * \$20 + 7 * \$50$

$Cost = \$280 + \$350$

$Cost = \$630$

This option can not be considered because the cost of purchase is greater than Lonnte's worth of Gift card.

Option 3: 2 movies and 10 video games

This option can not be considered because the number of items is not up to the minimum Lonnte must purchase.

Option 4: 8 movies and 6 video games

$Cost = 8 * \$20 + 6 * \$50$

$Cost = \$160 + \$300$

$Cost = \$460$

Hence, the correct option is 8 movies and 6 video games

A circle is increased to have a circumference that is 4 times larger than the original. Which of the following options best desc

kogti [31]

Area of a circle is directly proportional to the square of radius of the circle while the circumference is proportional to the radius of the circle. This means that if the radius of a circle is increased x times, then its area will be increased to x^2 times the original area, and the circumference will increase to x times the original circumference.

Thus when the radius is doubled, or in other words if radius mad 2 time the original radius, the area of circle will become 2^2 = 4 time the original area. The circumference will become 2 times the original circumference.

We can calculate exact area and circumference of a circle from its radius using the following equations:

Area of circle = (pi/4)*r^2

Circumference of circle = 2*pi*r

Where r is the radius of the circle.

I know this is a lot, sorry.
