What is the 50th term of the sequence that begins -4, 2, 8, 14....?

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

$a_{50}=290$

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that we are in the presence of an arithmetic sequence (there is a common difference of 6 between a term and the next). So thisis an arithmetic sequence with first term $a_1=-4$ . and common difference "d" = 6.

Recall now the formula for the nth term ( $a_n$ ) of an arithmetic sequence:

$a_n=a_1+(n-1)\,d$

Then, using our values in the formula, we get:

$a_n=a_1+(n-1)\,d\\a_{50}=-4+(50-1)\,6\\a_{50}=-4+(49)\,6\\a_{50}=290$

A recipe calls for 3 cups of flour to make 2 batches of dinner rolls. One batch makes 15 rolls. Laura is making dinner for 12 pe

Maru [420]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3 cups of flour produces 2 batches of dinner rolls. So, if one batch makes 15 rolls, then 2 batches makes 30 rolls. Therefore, 3 cups of flour produces 30 rolls.

Laura wants to find how much flour she needs to make 12 rolls.

Here's the setup:

Let x be the number of cups of flour needed. Then,

(3 cups of flour)/(30 rolls)=(x cups of flour)/(12 rolls)

This is the set up for all equations involving ratios. The units should be consistent. Notice how I have flour/rolls=flour/rolls.

It is not necessary to solve the equation, but you should to make sure your answer makes sense. By cross-multiplying, we get x=(3*12)/30 or 1.2 cups.

This solution makes sense. Because 3 cups of flour produces 30 rolls, one cup produces 10 rolls. We need slightly more than 1 cup to get 12 rolls.

We looking for distance

drek231 [11]

Answer:

240 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Figure is attached.

The distance the particle travels is the area under the v-t graph over the time interval from 0 min to 4 min. The reason you can't just multiply velocity by time is that the velocity is changing at a constant rate over the given time interval (the line is going upward--the particls is speeding up).

What's the area under the graph?

The red outline forms a trapezoid. The area of a trapezoid is $A=\frac{1}{2}h(b_1+b_2)$ where the b's are the lengths of the two parallel base and h is the height (the distance between the bases).

Reading the graph carefully (notice the scales!)...

$A=\frac{1}{2}(4)(30+90)=(2)(120)=240 \text{m}$

\boxed{b=-21}$

The value of b is -21.
