Answer:

I believe the answer is 121.

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula: (a)n = a + (n - 1)d

(a)n = nth Term of the Sequence

a = First Term in the Sequence

d = Common Difference

112th = 15 + (112 - 1)-5

112th = 15 + 111 - 5

112th = 121

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

{ 15, 5, -5, -15...}

the rule is

$a_{1} = 15, a_{n} = a_{n-1} -10$

the 112th term

$a_{112} = a_{1} + (n-1) *d\\\\a_{112} = 15 + (112 -1) * (-10)\\\\a_{112} = 15 - 1110\\\\a_{112} = -1095$

Answer:

the question is incomplete, the complete question is "find the derivative of the function $y=3e^{x}-xe^{x}$ "

answer: $\frac{dy}{dx}=(2-x)e^{x}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

From the equation, $y=3e^{x}-xe^{x}$ , we approach the question using the differentiation of a product and differentiation of a sum simultaneously,

the differentiation of a sum is express as

f(x)=u(x)+v(x)+.....w(x) then

$\frac{df(x)}{dx}=\frac{du(x)}{dx}+\frac{dv(x)}{dx}+...\frac{dw(x)}{dx}.\\$

For the differentiation of a product we have

f(x)=u(x)v(x), then

$\frac{df(x)}{dx}=\frac{dv(x)}{dx}u(x)+\frac{du(x)}{dx}v(x)$

hence if we go by the formula we arrive at

for $y=3e^{x}$

let u(x)=3 hence du/dx=0 and

$v(x)=e^{x}$ and $\frac{dv(x)}{dx}=e^{x}$

hence $\frac{dy}{dx}=3e^{x}+0e^{x}\\\frac{dy}{dx}=3e^{x}---equation 1\\$

Also for $y=-xe^{x}\\\frac{dy}{dx}=-e^{x}-xe^{x}---equation 2$ .

if we add equation 1 and equation 2 we arrive at

$\frac{dy}{dx}=3e^{x}-e^{x}-xe^{x}\\\frac{dy}{dx}=(3-1-x)e^{x}\\\frac{dy}{dx}=(2-x)e^{x}$ .

A city has a population of 72000 people the population is growing at a rate of 3.4% each year. Which function can be used to fin

dsp73

Answer: A = 72000(1.034)^8

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply an exponential growth function:

A = P (1 + r) t

Where:

p = initial population

r = growing rate (decimal form)

t= years

A = population after t years

Replacing with the values given:

A = 72000 (1+ 3.4/100) ^8

A = 72000(1.034)^8
