A skydiver is 780 meters above the ground when he opens his parachute. After opening the parachute, he descends at a constant sp

eed of 20 meters per second. What is a function that would best model this situation?
y = 20x - 780
y= 20x + 780
y =780 + 20x
y = 780 - 20x

Given: 1; -5; -13 ; -23 ; ...<br><br> Derive a formula for the nth term in the pattern.
mylen [45]

Answer:

  f(n) = -n^2 -3n +5

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose the formula is ...

  f(n) = an^2 +bn +c

Then we have ...

  f(1) = 1 = a(1^2) +b(1) +c

  f(2) = -5 = a(2^2) +b(2) +c

  f(3) = -13 = a(3^2) +b(3) +c

__

Here's a way to solve these equations.

Subtract the first equation from the second:

  -6 = 3a +b . . . . . 4th equation

Subtract the second equation from the third:

  -8 = 5a +b . . . . . 5th equation

Subtract the fourth equation from the fifth:

  -2 = 2a

  a = -1

Then substituting into the 4th equation to find b, we have ...

  -6 = 3(-1) +b

  -3 = b

and ...

  1 = -1 +(-3) +c . . . . . substituting "a" and "b" into the first equation

  5 = c

The formula is ...

  f(n) = -n^2 -3n +5

The coordinate m is 2.5 and mn=4. What are the possible coordinates for n
steposvetlana [31]
Refer to the figure shown below.

The coordinates of point m are (2,5).
Let (x,y) = the coordinates of pont n.

Because mn = 4, use the Pythagorean theorem to obtain
(x - 2)² + (y - 5)² = 4²

This represents a circle with center at (2,5) and radus = 4.

Answer:
Possible coordinates for n lie on the circle (x-2)² + (y-5)² = 16.

The measure of angle x is 18 more than 3 times the measure of its complement.
Alex
Complementary angles = two angles that add to 90° complement each other.


So, angle x = 3y+18
y= complementary angle
(3y + 18) + y =  90
4y+18 = 90
4y=72
y=18°

x= 3y+18
x= 3(18) +18
angle x = 72°

Which of the following is a valid exclusion for the algebraic fraction 8ab^2x/4a^2b - 8ab^2
avanturin [10]

The valid exclusion of the algebraic fraction is (c) a =0, b =0, a =2b

<h3>How to determine the valid exclusion?</h3>

The expression is given as:

8ab^2x/4a^2b - 8ab^2

Set the denominator to 0

4a^2b - 8ab^2 = 0

Divide through by 4ab

a - 2b = 0

Add 2b to both sides

a = 2b

Hence, the valid exclusion of the algebraic fraction is (c) a =0, b =0, a =2b
