Answer:

The required formula is:

$\ a_{n}=a_{1}+(n-1)d$

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of squares of the the first term = 4

The total number of squares of the the second term = 7

The total number of squares of the the third term = 10

so,

$a_1=4$

$a_2=7$

$a_3=10$

Finding the common difference d

$d=a_3-a_2=10-7=3$

$d=a_2-a_1=7-4=3$

As the common difference 'd' is same, it means the sequence is in arithmetic.

If the initial term of an arithmetic progression is $a_{1}$ and the common difference of successive members is d, then the nth term of the sequence $(a_n)$ is given by:

$\ a_{n}=a_{1}+(n-1)d$

Therefore, the required formula is:

$\ a_{n}=a_{1}+(n-1)d$

Marine biologists have determined that when a shark detectsthe presence of blood in the water, it will swim in the directionin w

siniylev [52]

Solution :

a). The level curves of the function :

$C(x,y) = e^{-(x^2+2y^2)/10^4}$

are actually the curves

$e^{-(x^2+2y^2)/10^4}=k$

where k is a positive constant.

The equation is equivalent to

$x^2+2y^2=K$

$\Rightarrow \frac{x^2}{(\sqrt K)^2}+\frac{y^2}{(\sqrt {K/2})^2}=1, \text{ where}\ K = -10^4 \ln k$

which is a family of ellipses.

We sketch the level curves for K =1,2,3 and 4.

If the shark always swim in the direction of maximum increase of blood concentration, its direction at any point would coincide with the gradient vector.

Then we know the shark's path is perpendicular to the level curves it intersects.

b). We have :

$\triangledown C= \frac{\partial C}{\partial x}i+\frac{\partial C}{\partial y}j$

$\Rightarrow \triangledown C =-\frac{2}{10^4}e^{-(x^2+2y^2)/10^4}(xi+2yj),$ and

$\triangledown C$ points in the direction of most rapid increase in concentration, which means $\triangledown C$ is tangent to the most rapid increase curve.

$r(t)=x(t)i+y(t)j$ is a parametrization of the most $\text{rapid increase curve}$ , then

$\frac{dx}{dt}=\frac{dx}{dt}i+\frac{dy}{dt}j$ is a tangent to the curve.

So then we have that $\frac{dr}{dt}=\lambda \triangledown C$

$\Rightarrow \frac{dx}{dt}=-\frac{2\lambda x}{10^4}e^{-(x^2+2y^2)/10^4}, \frac{dy}{dt}=-\frac{4\lambda y}{10^4}e^{-(x^2+2y^2)/10^4}$

∴ $\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{dy/dt}{dx/dt}=\frac{2y}{x}$

Using separation of variables,

$\frac{dy}{y}=2\frac{dx}{x}$

$\int\frac{dy}{y}=2\int \frac{dx}{x}$

$\ln y=2 \ln x$

⇒ y = kx^2 for some constant k

but we know that $y(x_0)=y_0$

$\Rightarrow kx_0^2=y_0$

$\Rightarrow k =\frac{y_0}{x_0^2}$

∴ The path of the shark will follow is along the parabola

$y=\frac{y_0}{x_0^2}x^2$

$y=y_0\left(\frac{x}{x_0}\right)^2$

Subvert

nadezda [96]

So...lets first think about what the word means to actually determine its synonyms.

Subvert :- To overthrow, or take down

Since this refers to an action that is upsetting, that would best fit the synonym.

Answer; To upset
