1. In an auditorium, there are 21 seats in the first row and 26 seats in the second row. The number of seats in a row continues

kondor19780726 [428]

1. Let $s_n$ be the number of seats in the $n$ -th row. The number seats in the $n$ -th row relative to the number of seats in the $(n-1)$ -th row is given by the recursive rule

$s_n=s_{n-1}+5$

Since $s_1=21$ , we have

$s_2=s_1+5$
$s_3=s_2+5=s_1+2\cdot5$
$s_4=s_3+5=s_1+3\cdot5$
$\cdots$
$s_n=s_{n-1}+5=\cdots=s_1+(n-1)\cdot5$

So the explicit rule for the sequence $s_n$ is

$s_n=21+5(n-1)\implies s_n=5n+16$

In the 15th row, the number of seats is

$s_{15}=5(15)+16=91$

2. Let $p_n$ be the amount of profit in the $n$ -th year. If the profits increase by 6% each year, we would have

$p_2=p_1+0.06p_1=1.06p_1$
$p_3=1.06p_2=1.06^2p_1$
$p_4=1.06p_3=1.06^3p_1$
$\cdots$
$p_n=1.06p_{n-1}=\cdots=1.06^{n-1}p_1$

with $p_1=40,000$ .

The second part of the question is somewhat vague - are we supposed to find the profits in the 20th year alone? the total profits in the first 20 years? I'll assume the first case, in which we would have a profit of

$p_{20}=1.06^{19}\cdot40,000\approx121,024$

3. Now let $p_n$ denote the number of pushups done in the $n$ -th week. Since $3\cdot4=12$ , $12\cdot4=48$ , and $48\cdot4=192$ , it looks like we can expect the number of pushups to quadruple per week. So,

$p_n=4p_{n-1}$

starting with $p_1=3$ .

We can apply the same reason as in (2) to find the explicit rule for the sequence, which you'd find to be

$p_n=4^{n-1}p_1\implies p_n=4^{n-1}\cdot3$

What is the answer to “Animal Cells Are More Interesting Than Plant Cells.”

gladu [14]

Answer:

This is more of a question that involves opinion, I prefer to studdy animal cells but that is merely my opinion. Plant cells are interesting too and may be more interesting to someone else, But for me animal cells are the better choice.

Step-by-step explanation:

Definition. Animal cells are the basic unit of life in organisms of the kingdom Animalia. They are eukaryotic cells, meaning that they have a true nucleus and specialized structures called organelles that carry out different functions.

Plant cells are the basic unit of life in organisms of the kingdom Plantae. They are eukaryotic cells, which have a true nucleus along with specialized structures called organelles that carry out different functions. Plant cells have special organelles called chloroplasts, which create sugars via photosynthesis.
