Allen is on the football team this year but he has poor time management skills. His mother told him that he is off the team if h

e fails anything. On his first quiz he got a 90, the second he earned an 86, then he earned an 82 on the next two quizzes. Is this sequence arithmetic or geometric? Recursion equation? Function formula? On what quiz will he no longer to play football? How many total points did Allen earn on all the quizzes he has taken up to his removal of the team?

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see that the sequence is 90, 86,82,.......

The common difference is  86 - 90 = -4

                                             82 - 86 = -4

Hence the sequence is arithmetic

The function is;

t(n) = 90 + (n - 1)(-4) = 90 + 4 - 4n

t(n) = 94 - 4n

Since it is AP, we have the sequence as;

90, 86, 82, 78, 74, 70, 66, 62......

He will no longer play football after the eighth quiz.

The total points earned is the sum of the first eight terms of the AP

Sn =n/2[2a + (n - 1) d]

Sn = 8/2[2(90) + (8 - 1) (-4)]

Sn = 608 points

in a company 95% of the workers are women if 220 people work for the company who aren't women how many workers are there in all?
dybincka [34]
So 5% of workers are not women, and 220 workers are not women, so 220 is 5% of the total workers. 220 is 5% of 4400, so there are 4400 workers in all.

4. The reflecting dish of a parabolic microphone has a cross-section in the shape of a parabola. The microphone itself is placed
elixir [45]
Assume the parabola is placed on a graph where the x-axis is the top of the dish.
The vertex is then at (0,-30)  The x-intercepts or zeros are at (-30,0) and (30,0)

The equation of such parabola would be:
y = a(x+30)(x-30)
Plug in vertex to find value of 'a'
-30 = a(0+30)(0-30) \\  \\ a = \frac{-30}{(-30)(30)} = \frac{1}{30}

Now find the focus given that p = \frac{1}{4a}
p = \frac{1}{4(1/30)} = \frac{30}{4} = 7.5

Answer: the microphone should be placed 7.5 inches from vertex.
