An arithmetic progression is a sequence of numbers in which the distance (or difference) between any two successive numbers if t
notsponge [240]

Answer:[m, m+d, m+2d, - - - - -, n]

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the formula for arithmetic progression is a_(n) = a_(1) + (n-1)d

Where a_(n) is the nth term of the sequence

a_(1) is the first term of the sequence

n is the number of the term like if we are talking about 7th term so the n is 7.

d is the difference between two successive terms.

For this problem we know our first term that is m, our last term that is n and our difference that is d.

For second term we will use the formula

a_(2) = m + (2-1)d

a_(2) = m + (1)d

a_(2) = m + d

Similarly,

a_(3) = m + (3-1)d

a_(3) = m + (2)d

a_(3) = m + 2d

Write the linear function for the given function values.<br> f(-2)=9 and f(6)=7
BigorU [14]

Answer:

y = -\frac14x + 8.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

A linear function is written in the form of y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Each of these expressions can be converted to coordinate form, (-2,9) and (6,7).

<h2>Slope</h2>

Slope can be calculated by the difference in the x-values divided by the difference in the y-values.

Solve

  • \frac{9 - 6}{-2 - 6}
  • \frac{2}{-8}
  • -\frac14

The slope is -1/4.

<h2 /><h2>Y-intercept</h2>

The y-intercept is found by plugging in the x and y values of a coordinate and the slope and then solving for b.

Solve

  • y = mx + b
  • 9 = -\frac14(-2) + b
  • 9 = 0.5 + b
  • 8.5 = b

<h2>Equation</h2>

We can find the equation by simply plugging in all the values that we found.

Equation: y = -\frac14x + 8.5

A car valued at £18000 at the start of 2017, depreciated in value by 5% each year for 3 years. How much did it lose in value ove
Anna11 [10]

<u>Answer:</u>

The amount lost over the 3 years s 2567.25£  

<u>Explanation:</u>

$\mathrm{F}=\mathrm{I} \times\left(1-\left(\frac{r}{100}\right)\right)^{\mathrm{n}}$

where F = final value after n years

I = initial value of the car in 2017 = £18000 (given)

Since the value is depreciated 5% every year for 3 years,

r = percentage rate of depreciation = 5% (given)

n = 3 years

Substituting these values in formula, we get

$\mathrm{F}=18000 \times\left(1-\frac{5}{100}\right)^{3}$

= $18000 \times\left(\frac{95}{100}\right)^{3}$

 = 15432.75£ which is the value of the car after 3 years

Finally 18000-15432.75 = 2567.25£ is the amount lost over this period.

Which function is f(x) equal to f^-1(x)?
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

c. f(x) x+1/x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question, we need to check each answer one by one until we find the right one.  

y = (x+6)/(x-6)  

switch x and y  

x = (y+6)/(y-6)  

solve for y  

x(y-6) = y+6  

xy - 6x = y+6  

y(x-1) = 6x+6  

y = (6x+6) /(x-1) = 6(x+1)/(x-1)  

f^-1(x) = 6(x+1)/(x-1)  

y = (x+2)/(x-2)  

switch x and y  

x = (y+2)/(y-2)  

solve for y  

x(y-2) = y+2  

xy -2x = y+2  

y(x-1) = 2x+2  

y = (2x+2)/(x-1)  

f^-1(x) = 2(x+1)/(x-1)  

y = (x+1)/(x-1) ------ correct one  

switch x and y  

x = (y+1)/(y-1)  

solve for y  

x(y-1) = y+1  

xy - x = y+1  

y(x-1) = x+1  

y = (x+1)/(x-1)  

f^-1(x) = (x+1)/(x-1)  

f(x) = f^-1(x)
