A savings account accrues interest at a rate of 3.0% yearly. If someone opens an account with $2,500, how much money would the a

Dmitriy789 [7]

To answer the question above we first need to know how much is the interest per year. In equation, 3% of $2500 is 75. 75 per year in 4 years is 300. So add $300 to the principal amount, the money after 4 years would be $2800.

Find the values of A B C AND D of <br> 4x^2 (2x^3+5x)= Ax^B +Cx^D

iren2701 [21]

The values are $A=8, B=5, C= 20$ and $D=3$

Explanation:

The expression is $4x^{2} (2x^{3} +5x)=Ax^{B} +Cx^{D}$

Simplifying, we get,

$8x^{5} +20x^3=Ax^{B} +Cx^{D}$

Since, both sides of the expression are equal, we can equate the corresponding values of A, B, C and D.

Thus, we get,

$8 x^{5}=A x^{B}$ ⇒ $A=8$ and $B=5$

Also, equating, $20 x^{3}=C x^{D}$ , we get,

$C=20$ and $D=3$

Thus, the values are $A=8, B=5, C= 20$ and $D=3$

Mohamed and Li Jing were asked to find an explicit formula for the sequence -5, -25, -125, -625,....

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

Li Jing's formula i.e. $\boxed{g_n=-5\cdot \:5^{n-1}}$ is right.

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the sequence

$-5,\:-25,\:-125,\:-625,...$

A geometric sequence has a constant ratio r and is defined by

$g_n=g_0\cdot r^{n-1}$

$\mathrm{Compute\:the\:ratios\:of\:all\:the\:adjacent\:terms}:\quad \:r=\frac{g_{n+1}}{g_n}$

$\frac{-25}{-5}=5,\:\quad \frac{-125}{-25}=5,\:\quad \frac{-625}{-125}=5$

$\mathrm{The\:ratio\:of\:all\:the\:adjacent\:terms\:is\:the\:same\:and\:equal\:to}$

$r=5$

So, the sequence is geometric.

as

$\mathrm{The\:first\:element\:of\:the\:sequence\:is}$

$g_1=-5$

$r=5$

so

$g_n=g_1\cdot r^{n-1}$

$\mathrm{Therefore,\:the\:}n\mathrm{th\:term\:is\:computed\:by}\:$

$g_n=-5\cdot \:5^{n-1}$

Therefore, Li Jing's formula i.e. $\boxed{g_n=-5\cdot \:5^{n-1}}$ is right.

A cubical block of metal weighs 6 pounds. How much will another cube of the same metal weigh if its sides are twice as long?

ser-zykov [4K]

I believe it would be 12, I believe this because its states that it is TWICE as long therefore is made from the same metal so 6x2=12
