This is a geometric sequence because each term is twice the value of the previous term. So this is what would be called the common ratio, which in this case is 2. Any geometric sequence can be expressed as:
a(n)=ar^(n-1), a(n)=nth value, a=initial value, r=common ratio, n=term number
In this case we have r=2 and a=1 so
a(n)=2^(n-1) so on the sixth week he will run:
a(6)=2^5=32
He will run 32 blocks by the end of the sixth week.
Now if you wanted to know the total amount he runs in the six weeks, you need the sum of the terms and the sum of a geometric sequence is:
s(n)=a(1-r^n)/(1-r) where the variables have the same values so
s(n)=(1-2^n)/(1-2)
s(n)=2^n-1 so
s(6)=2^6-1
s(6)=64-1
s(6)=63 blocks
So he would run a total of 63 blocks in the six weeks.
F+G:
Then, add the elements that occupy the same position:
Solve
So, we find the element at address h31:
In this case, position h31 is - 8.0
Answer:
The bait is 14 feet below the water surface
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to know the final position of the bait relative to the surface of the water.
Firstly, he starts with the bait at 2 feet below the water surface. The reels out the bait a further 19 feet, the new position of the bait relative to the water surface will be 2 + 19 = 21 feet
Now, he reels the bait back by 7 feet.
Thus, the new depth of the bait relative to the water surface will be 21-7 = 14 feet
Answer:
44u-36
Step-by-step explanation:
42u-36+2u
44u-36
They're not equivalent.
(vertical bars) represents the absolute value of x. How it works is that it turns negative numbers positive but leaves 0 and positive numbers alone (hence it gets a number's distance from 0 on the number line).
![[x]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Bx%5D)
(square brackets) usually represents the floor function, which returns the largest integer that is less than or equal to x. (The floor of x can also be written as 
--- it depends on what your textbook/source says).
To solve 
, you first transform it into the equivalent equation 
. Then by definition of absolute value, there are only two solutions for the first equation: x = 10 or x = -10.
[x] = 10 has infinitely many solutions. For example, the floor of 10 is 10, so ![[10] = 10](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5B10%5D%20%3D%2010)
, thus a solution for the second equation is x = 10
The floor of 10.1 is 10, so ![[10.1] = 10](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5B10.1%5D%20%3D%2010)
, thus another solution for the second equation is x = 10.1.
The two equations do not have the same solution set (as x = 10.1 does not solve |x| - 3 = 7 but solves [x] = 10), so they're not equivalent.
