Answer:

52

Step-by-step explanation:

f(n) is purely based on the previous value of f(n), or f(n-1), so we can start with f(1) and work our way up. We know f(1) = 2, so to find f(2), we plug f(1) into

f(n-1)²+3 to get

f(1)²+3 = 2²+3 = 4+3=7

Thus, f(2) =7. Similarly,

f(3) = f(3-1)²+3 = f(2)² + 3 -= 7² + 3= 52

Find the trigonometric form of the number 3 + √3i.
sattari [20]

Any complex number z can be written in trigonometric form as

z = |z| e^{i\arg(z)} = |z| \left(\cos(\arg(z)) + i \sin(\arg(z))\right)

where |z| is the modulus of z and \arg(z) is its argument, i.e. the angle z makes with the positive real axis in the complex plane.

We have

|z| = \sqrt{3^2 + \left(\sqrt3\right)^2} = \sqrt{12} = 2\sqrt3

and

\arg(z) = \tan^{-1}\left(\dfrac{\sqrt3}3\right) = \tan^{-1}\left(\dfrac1{\sqrt3}\right) = \dfrac\pi6

Then

3 + \sqrt3 \, i = \boxed{2\sqrt 3 \left(\cos\left(\dfrac\pi6\right) + i \sin\left(\dfrac\pi6\right)\right)}

Wendy has $17 to buy seed for her birdfeeders. Each bag of seed costs $2. How many bags of seed can she buy?
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

It depends if there is tax or not, if there isn't she can buy 8 of them.

Step-by-step explanation:

$17 is the total so we need to see how many $2 fit in $17.

8×2=16, and 16 is the closest number we can get to.

“Write five sentences about proportional relationships”
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

Now, we’re going to consider an example of proportional relationship in our everyday life: When we put gas in our car, there is a relationship between the number of gallons of fuel that we put in the tank and the amount of money we will have to pay. In other words, the more gas we put in, the more money we’ll pay.

Step-by-step explanation:

hope this helps

A foam toy is 2 inches wide. It doubles in size for every minute it is in water. Write an expression for the width of the toy af
Solnce55 [7]

it would be 2(2^5), which is two times two to the fifth power. you take the original size and double it for every minute, which is like squaring it, but to the power of five, because it doubles once every minute for five minutes. i hope this makes sense!:)
