A stock loses half its value each week. If the stock started at $125, what is it worth after 4 weeks?

Answer: 7.81

The formula is

y = 125* (1/2)^4

y = 125 / 16

y = 7.81

So at the end of the 4th week, the stock is worth only 7.81 dollars.

If that is not the motive and the first week doesn't count then the formula changes to...

y = 125 * (1/2)^(n-1)

y = 125 * (1/2)^3

y = 15.625 could be the other answer if you looked at it in that perspective

However, I would go with 7.81 as the answer.

Hope I helped :)

Calculus Help Show that one function is not an antiderivative of another

liraira [26]

Just differentiate G and H :

• dG/dx = d(x ² eˣ )/dx = 2x eˣ + x ² eˣ

so G is not an antiderivative of f.

• dH/dx = d(2x eˣ - 2eˣ ) = (2eˣ + 2x eˣ ) - 2eˣ = 2x eˣ = f(x)

so H is indeed an antiderivative of f.

Which inequality is true when n=4?

Nadusha1986 [10]

To find out which inequality is true, we need to plug in n=4.

$2n>6$
$2(4)>6$
$8>6$

And since 8 is really greater than 6, this inequality is true! :)

$n+3$
 $4+3 < 7$
$7 < 7$

7 is not less than 7. So this inequality is false.

$9- n \geq 13$
$9-4 \geq 13$
$5 \geq 13$

5 is not greater than or equal to 13, so this inequality is false

$\frac{n}{12} \geq 3$
$\frac{4}{12} \geq 3$
 $\frac{1}{3} \geq 3$

And 1/3 is not greater than 3, so this inequality is also false.
