Part a .

A arithmetic sequence with a third term of 8 and a common difference of 5 .

To find the first five therms, since the common difference is 5, so we add 5 to get the fourth term and add 5 to fourth term to get the fifth term .

And for first two terms, we will subtract 5 from 8 to get the second term and subtract 5 from the second term to get the first term. And we will get

8-5-5,8-5,8, 8+5+5 = -2 ,3,8,13,18

Part b:A geometric sequence with a fifth term of 1/3 and constant ratio of 1/3.

TO find the first five terms, since the constant ratio of 1/3, so we multiply 1/3 to third term to get fourth term, and multiply fourth term by 1/3 to get fifth term .

And to get the first two terms, we will divide third term by 1/3, to get the second term and divide the second term by 1/3 to get the first term, that is

3,1,\frac{1}{3}, \frac{1}{9},\frac{1}{27}

4. The diagram at right shows the graph of 3x + 4y = 12. The shaded figure is a square, three of whose vertices are on the coord
nikklg [1K]

Remark

This is a very interesting question.  Draw a line from the origin to where the upper right vertex of the square touches the line. That line has the property that the its equation is y = x. So the "solution" to the point of intersection is the solution of the two equations.

y =  x            (1)

3x + 4y = 12 (2)

Put x in for y in equation 2

3x + 4x = 12

7x = 12

x = 12/7

x = 1.714

y = 1.714

Problem A

<em><u>x intercept</u></em>

The x intercept occurs when y = 0

3x + 4(0) = 12

3x = 12                Divide by 3

x = 12/3

x = 4

the x intercept = (4,0)

<em><u>y intercept</u></em>

The y intercept occurs when x =0

3(0) + 4y = 12

4y = 12

y = 12/4

y = 3

y intercept = (0,3)

Problem B

x and y both equal 1.714 so they are also the length of the square's side.

Problem C

See solution above. x =y is the key fact.

x = y = 1.714

using compound interest, how long does it take to double a 1000 dollar investment that pays 6.5% annual interest, compounded mon
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

11 years approx

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

P=$1000

A=2000

R=6.5%

T= ?

Calculate time, solve for t

t = ln(A/P) / r

substitute

t=ln(2000/1000)/0.065

t=ln(2)/0.065

t=0.693/0.065

t=10.66

Hence the time is 11 years approx

Ingrid makes quilts in designs that follow a specific pattern. The first three designs are shown. In designs, the white blocks r
Gekata [30.6K]

The number of white and grey blocks in the quilts follows a sequence given by the Design number of the quilt

The numbers and patterns of the blocks are;

a. Patterns;

  • The height of the white blocks is the Design number, while the rows are one more than the design number
  • The height of the outer grey blocks is 2 blocks more than the Design number, while their rows are 3 blocks more than the Design number

b. The function is \underline{p(n) = n \cdot (n + 1)}

c. The function is \underline{b(n) = (n + 2) \cdot (n + 3) -  n \cdot (n + 1)}}

d.  \underline{t(n) = (n + 2) \cdot (n + 3)  = b(n) - p(n) }

e. The design chosen is <u>Design 9</u>

The number of blocks is <u>132 blocks</u>

Reasons:

The pattern of the design are;

a. The column height of the grey blocks = 2 blocks more than the column height of the white blocks

Width of the outer grey blocks = 2 blocks more than the width of the inner white blocks

The number of white blocks in a design, <em>n</em> is the product of <em>n</em> and (n + 1)

The number of grey blocks in a design <em>n</em>, is the product of (n + 2) and (n + 3) less the number of white blocks in the design

b. Based on the above, the function that represent the number of picture blocks in Design <em>n</em>, is therefore;

  • p(n) = n·(n + 1)

c. Based on the above, the function that represent the number of border blocks in Design <em>n</em>, is therefore;

  • b(n) = (n + 2)·(n + 3) - n·(n + 1)

d. The total number of blocks, t(n) = (n + 2)·(n + 3)

t(n) = (n + 2)·(n + 3) - n·(n + 1) + n·(n + 1)

  • t(n) = p(n) + b(n)

e. The given number of picture blocks = 90

The number of picture blocks in a design, n = n × (n + 1)

Therefore, given that the number of picture blocks is 90, we have;

90 = n × (n + 1)

n² + n - 90 = 0

(n + 10)·(n - 9) = 0

n = 9, or n = -10

Therefore, the design museum chooses is <u>Design 9</u>

The total number of blocks in a quilt design, t(n) = (n + 2)·(n + 3)

Total blocks in the design the art museum choses, t(9), is given as follows;

t(9) = (9 + 2)·(9 + 3) = <u>132 blocks</u>
