Zan has created this rule for generating sequences of whole numbers. If a number is 25 or less, double the number. If a number i

s more than 25, subtract 12 from it. For example, if Zan starts with 10, she gets the sequence 10, 20, 40, 28, 16,... If the third number in Zan's sequence is 36, what is the sum of the four distinct numbers that could have been the first number in her sequence

Answer:

123

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Method to generate the sequence:

If a number is less than or equal to 25, then the number is doubled.

And if the number is more than 25, then 12 is subtracted from it.

Here, we are given a sequence with its third number is 36.

Now, let us have a look by making the number 36 as half of its value.

\frac{36}{2} = 18

This could have been the second number in the.

According to this, the first number will be \frac{18}{2} = \bold{9}

Other option for the first term can be 18 + 12 = 30

By second method, the second method can be:

36 + 12 = 48

By this method, First number 48 + 12 = 60

Other option for first number can be \frac{48}{2 } = \bold{24}

Therefore, sum of four options of first term:

9 + 30 + 60 + 24 = <em>123</em>

The quadratic function h(t)=-16.1t^2 + 150 models a balls height, in feet, over time, in seconds, after it is dropped from a 15
katrin [286]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is: The first graphic representation.

<h2>Why?</h2>

We are given a quadratic equation, meaning that it could be two possible solutions for the exercise, however, we are talking about time, so we have to consider only the obtained positive values.

Let's make the equation equal to 0 in order to find the values of "t"

h(t)=-16.1t^2 + 150\\0=-16.1t^2 + 150\\16.1t^2=150\\t^2=\frac{150}{16.1}=9.32\\t=+-\sqrt{9.32}=+-3.05\\t1=3.05\\t2=-305

So, discarding the negative value, we can use the possitive value to find the correct graphic representation.

To find the correct graphic representation we must take into consideration the following:

- We must remember that the sign of the coefficient of the quadratic term (t^2) will define if the parabola opens downward or upward.

From the given quadratic (or parabola) equation we have:

a=-1\\b=0\\c=150

So, since the coefficient of the quadratic term is negative, the parabola opens downward.

- Since we are looking for a graphic that represents the change in height over time, we need to look for a graphic that shows only positive values for the x-axis (time)

- We are looking for a parabola which y-axis intercept is equal to 150.

Therefore, the graphic representation of the quadratic function that models a ball's height over time is the first graphic representation.

Have a nice day!
