Mathematics
1 answer:
Reptile [31]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

common ratio=0.5, a1= 0.08

Step-by-step explanation:

r=a3/a2

r=a4/a3

compare both we get:

a3/a2=a4/a3

subtitute a2=0.04 and a4=1

a3/0.04=1/a3

(a3)^2=0.04*1

(a3)^2=0.04

taking square root in both sides

a3=0.02

For r, r=a3/a2

subtitute a3 and a2 above

r=0.02/0.04

r=0.5 common ratio

For a1

r=a2/a1

0.5=0.04/a1

a1=0.04/0.5

a1=0.08

Determine the 1-unit growth factor for f f. [We encourage you to write the expression that represents the value of the growth fa
timofeeve [1]

Answer: The complete question is found in the attachment

Step-by-step explanation:

a) To determine the 1-unit growth factor for <em>f</em>

= 2.1/1.75 = 1.2

b) To determine the 1-unit percent change for <em>f</em>

<em>=100 x 1-1.2/1 = 0.2 x 100= 20%</em>

<em>c) to determine the initial value of f</em>

<em>f(x)= abˣ , b =1.2   a=initial value</em>

<em>at (-1,2.1)</em>

<em>2.1= (1.2)⁻¹ x a</em>

<em>a = 2.1/(1.2)⁻¹ </em>

<em>a = 2.1 x 1.2 = 2.52</em>

<em />

<em>d) to determine the function formula for f</em>

<em>f(x)= abˣ = 2.52(1.2)ˣ</em>

Verify seca(1-sina)(seca+tana)=1
beks73 [17]
Seca(1-sina)(seca+tana)=1
Left hand side
=(1-sina) (seca +tana) / cosa
=seca +tana - sinaseca - sinatan / cosa
=seca + tana -tana -(sin^2a/cosa) / cosa
=(1/cosa - sin^2a/cosa) / cosa
= (1-sin^2a / cosa) / cosa
= (1-sin^2a)/ (cos^2a)
=1 (verified)
