a sequence starts a 200 and 30 is subtracted each time 200,170,140 what are the first two numbers in the sequence that are kess

Snowcat [4.5K]

<h3>Answer: -10 and -40</h3>

===============================================================

Explanation:

a = 200 = first term

d = -30 = common difference

Tn = nth term

Tn = a + d(n-1)

Tn = 200 + (-30)(n-1)

Tn = 200 - 30n + 30

Tn = -30n + 230

Set Tn less than 0 and isolate n

Tn < 0

-30n + 230 < 0

230 < 30n

30n > 230

n > 230/30

n > 7.667 approximately

Rounding up to the nearest whole number gets us $n \ge 8$

So Tn starts to turn negative when n = 8

We can see that,

Tn = -30n + 230

T7 = -30*7 + 230

T7 = 20

and

Tn = -30n + 230

T8 = -30*8 + 230

T8 = -10 is the 8th term

and lastly

Tn = -30n + 230

T9 = -30*9 + 230

T9 = -40 is the ninth term

Or once you determine that T7 = 20, you subtract 30 from it to get 20-30 = -10 which is the value of T8. Then T9 = -40 because -10-30 = -40.

Question 9 of 2

vagabundo [1.1K]

Company A charges a $125 annual fee plus $7 per hour car share fee.

Company B charges $110 plus $10 per hour. The minimum number of hours that a car share needs to be used per year to make company A a better deal is 6 hours.

A: y=125+7 x

B: y=110+10 x

for A to be a better deal than B, 125+7 x<110+10 x has to be true

subtract 7x from both sides and subtract 110 from both sides of the inequality: 15<3 x

divide by 3: 5<x

so x has to be greater than 5 , im pretty sure it's 6 hours but it might also be 5 depending on how it's taught for you.

Equations are not always balanced on both sides using a "equal to" symbol in mathematics. Sometimes it can be about a "not equal to" relationship, meaning that something is superior to or inferior to another. In mathematics, an inequality is a relationship between two numbers or other mathematical expressions that results in an unequal comparison. Inequalities are the name given to certain algebraic mathematical expressions.

Swimming speed of salmon. The graph is showed below shows the influence of the temperature T on the maximum sustainable swimming

Doss [256]

Answer:

Here we have the relation between the speed of the salmon and the temperature.

a) the relation dS/dT tell us how the speed of the salmon changes as the temperature changes, and the units should be (if speed is m/s and temperature is in °C )

[dS/dT ] = [m/s*°C ].

b) I can not do a draw of the figure, but i can give a aproximation.

For T = 18°C, we can see that we are around the maximum of the curve, this means that around this point we will find the zero in the first derivate.

then S'(18) ≈ 0 m/s*°C

this means that around this point the changes are small.

for T = 10°C

Around this region, we can see almost a linear behavior.

so we can take a range of +-2°C

S(12°C) = 25m/s

S(8°C) = 20m/s

then the slope can be obtained using the relation:

S = (Y2 - Y1)/(X2 - X1) where this is the slope for the line that goes trough the pairs. (X1, Y1) and (X2, Y2)

S = (25 - 20)/(12 - 8) = 5/4

then we have that S´(10°C) ≈ 5/4 m/s*°C

Those two results are approximations, you may find better approximations by doing this with a ruler and drawing the tangents.

Which graph represents the function h(x) = –(x + 6)3 – 3?

suter [353]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Please, if you're indicating exponentiation, use the symbol " ^ " to indicate it. Thanks.

The parent function here is f(x) = x^3.

g(x) = (x + 6)^3 has the same graph as does

f(x) = x^3, except that the entire graph of x^3 is translated 6 units to the left.

h(x) = -(x + 6)^3 has the same graph as

does g(x), except that the entire graph of g(x) is reflected in the x-axis.

The graph of h(x) = h(x) = –(x + 6)3 – 3 is the same as that of h(x) except that the entire graph is translated downward by 3 units.
