Answer:

A. $f(n) =0.2n+4.8$

B. The y intercept is 4.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$a_n= 5 + 0.2(n-1)$

Solving (a): Write as a function.

To do this, we simply substitute f(n) for $a_n$

$a_n= 5 + 0.2(n-1)$ becomes

$f(n)= 5 + 0.2(n-1)$

Open Bracket

$f(n) = 5 + 0.2n-0.2$

Collect Like Terms

$f(n) =0.2n-0.2 + 5$

$f(n) =0.2n+4.8$

B. The y intercept.

To get the y intercept, we set n to 0

i.e

$f(0) =0.2 * 0+4.8$

$f(0) =0+4.8$

$f(0) =4.8$

Hence, the y intercept is 4.8

A rectangular floor is 18ft long and 12 ft wide. Lamar wants to carpet the floor with carpet tiles sold by square yard. Use the

WITCHER [35]

Solution

The dimension of the rectangular floor is 18ft long and 12 ft wide

Using the conversion table

It is given that 1yd =3 ft

This shows that

12 feet will be equivalent to

$\frac{12}{3}=4yd$

Also 18ft will be equialent to

$\frac{18}{3}=6yd$

Therefore the new dimension is 6 yard by 4 yard

The area will be

$A=6\times4$

Therefore the required area is

$A=24yd^2$

the volume of a gas varies inversely as the pressure upon it. if the volume of the gas is 160 cubic centimeters at a pressure of

marin [14]

It was stated in the problem that a given volume of a is inversely proportional with the pressure of the system. It means that the as the volume increases, the pressure would decrease and as the volume decreases, the pressure would increase. We would express it as:

V α 1/P

To change it to an equality, we introduce a proportionality constant, k. We do as follows:

V = k/P

So, to determine what is asked, we need to first calculate for the value of k.

V = k/P
At V = 160 m^3 P = 108 cmHg
160 = k / (108)
k = 17280

Thus, at P = 87 cmHg
V = 17280 / 87
V = 198.62 m^3

Andrews [41]

For this case what we should know is that the function that best adapts to this problem is given by:
y = 2 * (4) ^ x
The graph of the function is shown for two different intervals:
A small interval of -1.5 to 0.5
A larger interval of -6.5 to 6.5.
In both intervals the exponential growth of the function is demonstrated.
