Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

If a1 = 7 and an = An-1 – 3

a4 = a3 - 3

Get a2;

a2 = a1 - 3

a2 = 7 - 3

a2 = 4

Get a3;

a3 = a2 - 3

a3 = 4 - 3

a3 = 1

GEt the required a4

a4 = a3 - 3

a4 = 1 - 3

a4  = -2

Hence the value of a4 is -2

If f(x)=4x+2, find f(-3)
almond37 [142]

Answer:

f(x)=-10

Step-by-step explanation:

when you have f of x...any x gets the filled in by the number that is next to f

so f(x)=4x+2

f(x)=4*-3+2

f(x)=-10

A cylinder shaped can needs to be constructed to hold 600 cubic centimeters of soup. The material for the sides of the can costs
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

the dimensions that minimize the cost of the cylinder are R= 3.85 cm and L=12.88 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

since the volume of a cylinder is

V= π*R²*L → L =V/ (π*R²)

the cost function is

Cost = cost of side material * side area  + cost of top and bottom material * top and bottom area

C = a* 2*π*R*L + b* 2*π*R²

replacing the value of L

C = a* 2*π*R* V/ (π*R²) + b* 2*π*R²  = a* 2*V/R + b* 2*π*R²

then the optimal radius for minimum cost can be found when the derivative of the cost with respect to the radius equals 0 , then

dC/dR = -2*a*V/R² + 4*π*b*R = 0

4*π*b*R = 2*a*V/R²

R³ = a*V/(2*π*b)

R=  ∛( a*V/(2*π*b))

replacing values

R=  ∛( a*V/(2*π*b)) = ∛(0.03$/cm² * 600 cm³ /(2*π* 0.05$/cm²) )= 3.85 cm

then

L =V/ (π*R²) = 600 cm³/(π*(3.85 cm)²) = 12.88 cm

therefore the dimensions that minimize the cost of the cylinder are R= 3.85 cm and L=12.88 cm
