Answer:

155,588

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating future value:

FV = P (1 + r)^n

FV = Future value  

P = Present value  

R = growth rate

N = number of years 2021 - 2014 = 7

130,000(1.026)^7 = 155,587.6

rounding off to the nearest whole  number is 155,588

To round off to the nearest whole number, look at the first number after the decimal, if it is less than 5, add zero to the units term, If it is equal or greater than 5, add 1 to the units term.

The square root of a a negative integer is imaginary.
It would still be a negative under a square root if you multiplied it by 2, therefor it will still be imaginary, or I’m assuming as your book calls it, undefined.
2•(sqrt-1) = 2sqrt-1

If you add a number to -1 itself, specifically 1 or greater it will become a positive number or 0 assuming you just add 1. In that case it would be defined.
-1 + 1 = 0
-1 + 2 = 1

If you add a number to the entire thing “sqrt-1” it will not be defined.
(sqrt-1) + 1 = 1+ (sqrt-1)

If you subtract a number it will still have a negative under a square root, meaning it would be undefined.
(sqrt-1) + 1 = 1 + (sqrt-1)

however if you subtract a negative number from -1 itself, you end up getting a positive number or zero. (Subtracting a negative number is adding because the negative signs cancel out).
-1 - -1 = 0
-1 - -2 = 1

If you squared it you would get -1, which is defined
sqrt-1 • sqrt-1 = -1

and if you cubed it, you would get a negative under a square root again, therefor it would be undefined.
sqrt-1 • sqrt-1 • sqrt-1 = -1 • sqrt-1 = -1(sqrt-1)

Sorry if this answer is confusing, I don’t have a scientific keyboard, I’ll get one soon.

What is the explicit formula for the sequence 10, 15, 22.5, 33.75, …?
Flura [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there's no one one number you can add to one number in the sequence to get to the next number, this is not arithmetic. It must be geometric. We need then to find the common ratio. Let's start with the first 2 numbers, find a ratio, and then use it to test for accuracy.

10x = 15 and

x = \frac{15}{10}=\frac{3}{2} If this is in fact a geometric sequence witha common ratio of 3/2, we should be able to multiply 15 by 3/2 to get to the next number in the sequence. Let's try it out:

15(\frac{3}{2})= \frac{45}{2}=22.5 Good. So the common ratio is 3/2. The formula for an explicit geometric formula is

A_n=a_1(r)^{n-1 where a1 is the first number in the sequence and r is the common ratio. Filling in:

A_n=10(\frac{3}{2})^{n-1
