Given
- f(n) values for n=1,2,3,4
- possible candidates for the function
Solution:
Method: Evaluate some of the values, for each function. A function with ANY value not matching the given f(n) values will be rejected.
N=1, f(n)=4
f(1)=4-3(1-1)=4
f(1)=4+3^(1+1)=4+3^2=4+9=13 ≠ 4 [rejected]
f(1)=4(3^(n-1))=4(3^0)=4
f(1)=3(4^(n-1))=3(4^0)=3*1=3 [rejected]
N=2, f(n)=12
f(1)=4-3(2-1)=4-3(1)=1 ≠ 12 [rejected]
[rejected]
f(1)=4(3^(2-1)=4*3^1=4*3=12
[rejected]
Will need to check one more to be sure
N=3, f(n)=3
[rejected]
[rejected]
f(3)=4(3^(n-1))=4(3^(3-1))=4(3^2)=4*9=36 [Good]
[rejected]
Solution: f(n)=4(3^(n-1))
Answer:
m∠PNO = 60°
m∠O = 33°
Step-by-step explanation:
∡NPO is 87° because it's a vertical angle with the 87° angle
3) ∡PNO is supplementary to the 120° angle (they must add to 180°)
4) m∠O = 180 - (60 + 87) = 33
Answer:
43 students were in each bus
Step-by-step explanation:
Total students: 395
Students travelled in cars: 8
Students travelled in buses: 395-8=387
Number of buses filled:9
Number of students in each bus: 387÷9=43
