! Means starting from that number multiply by every number down to 1.
5!= 5•4•3•2•1 = 20•6=120
2!= 2•1=2
120+2=122 :)
Algebra is Faster And Better Than “Basic” Math
Just as multiplying two by twelve is faster than counting to 24 or adding 2 twelve times, algebra helps us solve problems more quickly and easily than we could otherwise. Algebra also opens up whole new areas of life problems, such as graphing curves that cannot be solved with only foundational math skills.
Answer:
The y-intercept of the equation is 100 and represents the initial studio-use fee.
Step-by-step explanation:
In this equation, our t variable (time) is the equivalent of the x-variable on a graph. This is because it is the variable that we 'change' to see its impact on y. We see how the amount of hours affects the price. So our P variable (price) is the equivalent of y on a graph. The y-intercept is where the line crosses the y-axis on a graph. At this point, x=0.
Since P is our y, and t is our x, to find the y-intercept, we simply need to make t = 0.
P = 50(0) + 100
P = 100
Therefore the y-intercept is 100.
In this context, t represents time, so even though the studio has been used for 0 hours, the price is still 100. This is because the 100 represents the initial studio-use fee, and using it for certain amounts of time adds onto the initial fee of $100. The hourly fee is represented by 50t so it costs $50 more for each hour of use.
Hope this helped!
Formula of the sum of the 1st nth term in a Geometric Progression:
Sum = a₁(1-rⁿ)/(1-r), where a₁ = 1st term, r = common ratio and n= rank nth of term (r≠1)
Sum = (-11)[1-(-5⁸)] /[(1-(-5)]
Sum = (-11)(1- 390625)/(6)
SUM = 716,144
