Can someone please show me the steps in finding the answers to these two problems ?

Answer:

y = 8^(x-1)
x = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is always to look at the question to see what you are given and what you are asked for. The next step is to identify the relevant relations between what you have and what you need to find.

__

1) You are given a sequence of (x, y) points where x increases by 1 from one point to the next, and y increases by a factor of 8. This tells you the value of y form a geometric sequence that is described by an exponential function.

The general form of the n-th term of a geometric sequence is ...

an = a1·r^(n-1)

where a1 is the value for n=1, and r is the common ratio.

If this were a geometric sequence, we could write the general term using a1=1 and r=8:

an = 1·8^(n-1)

Instead, this is a relation between x and y. It is the same relation as for the geometric sequence, but with different variable names. We have y instead of an, and we have x instead of n. So, the equation is ...

y = 8^(x -1) . . . . . . . or . . y = (1/8)8^x

__

2) This equation is of the form ...

k·∛x = 6

Since k is also a cube root, it is easiest to cube both sides of the equation:

9x = 6³ = 216

Now, you can divide by 9 to find x:

x = 216/9

x = 24

Two sisters like to compete on their bike rides. Tamara can go 4 mph faster than her sister, Samantha. If it takes Samantha 1 ho

Triss [41]

Answer:

16 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

You should first form equations related to this information

Given,Tamara can go 4 mph faster than her sister, Samantha

Lets take speed to ride a bike for Samantha to be= x mph

The speed to ride a bike for Tamara will be= x+4 mph

To cover a distance of 80 miles, Samantha takes 1 hour longer than Tamara

Introduce the formula for time; time=distance/speed=D/S where D is distance in miles and S is speed in miles per hour

Here time Samantha takes to cover a distance of 80 miles is 1 hour more than that taken by Tamara, hence

<u>Time taken by Samantha</u>

$=\frac{80}{x}$

<u>Time taken by Tamara</u>

$=\frac{80}{4+x}$

<u>Equation for difference in time</u>

$=\frac{80}{x} -\frac{80}{4+x} =1$

Solve the equation for difference in time to get value of x which is samantha speed

$=\frac{80}{x} -\frac{80}{x+4} =1\\\\\\=80(4+x)-80(x)=x(4+x)\\\\\\=320+80x-80x=4x+x^2\\\\\\=x^2+4x-320=0$

Solve quadratic equation by the quadratic formula where a=1,b=4 and c=-320

x=(-b±√b²-4ac)÷2a

x=(-4±√4²-4×1×-320)÷2×1

$x=\frac{-4+/-\sqrt{4^2-4*1*-320} }{2} \\\\\\x=(-4+/-\sqrt{1296} )/2\\\\\\x=\frac{-4+36}{2} =\frac{32}{2} =16$

Samantha speed is 16 mph
