Answer:
an = (n+3)/(n+1)
Step-by-step explanation:
The sequence can be written as ...
4/2, 5/3, 6/4, 7/5, 8/6, ...
where the first numerator is n+3 and the first denominator is n+1. Each numerator and denominator increase by 1 from term to term, so the explicit formula can be written
an = (n+3)/(n+1)
Answer:
(2x+1)(x+7)
Step-by-step explanation:
Guess and Check
(2x+7)(x+1) = 2x^2+9x+7. NOPE
(2x+1)(x+7) = 2x^2+15x+7. YES
7 million because 1 is closer to 7 than to 8
Answer:
5 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the time when it landed, we will have to find the x-intercepts.
Equation given to us : -16t² + 48t + 160
Let's take the GCD, which is -16.
-16( t² - 3t - 10 )
Factoring what's inside the brackets, we get the x-intercepts.
What multiples to -10 but adds up to -3? The numbers are -5 and 2
-16 ( t - 5 ) ( t - 2 )
X-intercepts are t - 5 and t - 2
Which is 5 and 2 seconds. But one of this is an extraneous solution and that is 2.
If we substitute the value of 2 in the equation, we will not get 0.
During the x-intercept, the x has a value and y is 0. If we substitute 5 ans x. we will get y as 0.
Hence, the answer is 5 seconds.
