Answer:

an = −1,171,875(1/5)^n-1

Step-by-step explanation:

The given sequence is geometric sequence since they have the same common ratio r. The nth term of a geometric sequence is expressed as;

an = ar^n-1

n is the number of terms

r is the common ratio

a is the first term

From the sequence;

a = −1,171,875

r = −234,375 /−1,171,875 = -46,875/−234,375 = 0.2

r = 1/5

Substitute the values in the formula;

an = −1,171,875(1/5)^n-1

Hence the required explicit formula is an = −1,171,875(1/5)^n-1

Write the equation in standard form for the parabola with vertex (0,0) and directrix y=-6
Serggg [28]
This is a parabola which  has vertex at the origin and opens upwards.

general form  is x^2 = 4ay   where a is the focus

the focus is the same distance from the vertex as the directrix  So it is at the point (0, 6)

required equation is x^2 = 4*6 y

or y = (1/24) x^2

A spherical party balloon is being inflated with helium pumped in at a rate of 10 cubic feet per minute. How fast is the radius
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

The radius is growing at a rate of   \frac{dr}{dt}  = \frac{10}{4 \pi} = 0.795 ft per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given we know that

\frac{dV}{dt} = 10

And we know as well that .

V = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3

Since everything is changing with the time we can compute the implicit  derivative and we would get that

\frac{dV}{dt} = 10 = 4\pi r^2 \frac{dr}{dt}

We are told that we are looking for how fast is the radius growing at the instant when the radius has reached 1 ft, therefore  r = 1.

And when we solve for  \frac{dr}{dt}  = \frac{10}{4 \pi} = 0.795

PLS HELP ASAP!! WILL MARK BRAINLYIST
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

After 5 years, savings account = $241.00

After 8 years, savings account = $269.53

Step-by-step explanation:

If the savings account increases by 3.8% per year, this means it will be 103.8% of the previous year's value since 100% + 3.8% = 103.8%

103.8% in decimal form = 103.8/100 = 1.038

Therefore, the exponential function is:

y = 200 \cdot 1.038^x, where x is the number of years

So when x=5,  

y = 200 \cdot 1.038^5=240.99984...

After 5 years, savings account = $241.00

After 8 years, savings account = $269.53
