\large\underline{\sf{Solution-}}

<u>Let us assume that:</u>

\sf \longmapsto x =  \sqrt{6 +  \sqrt{6 +  \sqrt{6 + ... \infty } } }

We can also write it as:

\sf \longmapsto x =  \sqrt{6 +  x }

Squaring both sides, we get:

\sf \longmapsto  {x}^{2}  =6 +  x

\sf \longmapsto  {x}^{2} - x - 6  =0

By splitting the middle term:

\sf \longmapsto  {x}^{2} - 3x + 2x - 6  =0

\sf \longmapsto x(x - 3) + 2(x - 3 ) =0

\sf \longmapsto (x+ 2)(x - 3 ) =0

<u>Therefore:</u>

\longmapsto\begin{cases} \sf (x+ 2) =0 \\ \sf (x - 3) = 0 \end{cases}

\sf \longmapsto x =  - 2,3

<u>But x cannot be negative. </u>

\sf \longmapsto x = 3

Therefore, the value of the expression is 3.

\large\underline{\sf{Verification-}}

Given:

\sf\longmapsto x=3

We can also write it as:

\sf\longmapsto x = \sqrt{9}

\sf\longmapsto x = \sqrt{6+3}

\sf\longmapsto x = \sqrt{6 + \sqrt{9}}

\sf\longmapsto x = \sqrt{6 + \sqrt{6+3}}

\sf\longmapsto x = \sqrt{6 + \sqrt{6+\sqrt{9}}}

\sf\longmapsto x = \sqrt{6 + \sqrt{6+\sqrt{6+3}}}

This pattern will continue.

\sf\longmapsto x = \sqrt{6 + \sqrt{6+\sqrt{6+...\infty}}}

A motorboat goes downstream in river and covers a distance between to coastal towns in 5 hours . It covers this distance upstrea
Radda [10]

Answer:

The speed of the boat in still water is 33 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us denote the speed of the boat in still water as x km/h.

Thus;

Since the speed of the stream is 3 km/h, then while going downstream, the total speed on the boat would be; (x + 3) km/h

Formula for distance = speed x time

Since we are told that the time taken to cover the distance downstream is 5 hours, then;

Distance covered in 5 hours = 5(x + 3) km

Therefore, distance between A and B is 5(x + 3) km

However, while going upstream the boat will work against the water current.

Therefore, its speed upstream will be (x − 3) km/h.

we are told that the time taken to cover the distance downstream is 6 hours, then;

Distance covered in 6 hours = 6(x − 3) km

Therefore, distance between A and B is 6(x - 3) km

The true distance between A and B has to be the same.

So,

5(x + 3) = 6(x - 3)

This gives;

5x + 15 = 6x - 18

15 + 18 = 6x - 5x

x = 33

Therefore, the speed of the boat in still water is 33 km/h

Write an equation to model growth or decay in the following scenario. A stock is declining at a rate of 25% of its value every 2
yawa3891 [41]

The exponential function that models this situation is:

y(t) = 225(0.75)^{\frac{t}{2}}

------------------------------------------

A decaying exponential function has the following format:

y(t) = y(0)(1 - r)^t

In which:

  • y(0) is the initial value.
  • r is the decay rate, as a decimal.

In this problem:

  • The stock started at $225, thus y(0) = 225.
  • Declines at a rate of 25% every 2 weeks, thus r = 0.25, t = \frac{t}{2}

The equation is:

y(t) = y(0)(1 - r)^t

y(t) = 225(1 - 0.25)^{\frac{t}{2}}

y(t) = 225(0.75)^{\frac{t}{2}}

There are 60 tables in a restaurant, with 25% of them seating 2 people.
Ratling [72]
Hello! So, 25% of the 60 tables seat two people. To find this number, multiply 60 by 25%. 60 * 25% (0.25) is 15. 15 of them seat 2 people and 15 * 2 is 30.The other 45 tables seat 4 people. When you multiply both number, you get 180. Now, let's add the numbers together. 180 + 30 is 210. There are 210 seats in the restaurant. The answer is C: 210.

How many terms are in the arithmetic sequence 7, 0, −7, . . . , −175?
Sav [38]
So hmmm 7, 0, -7.... what the dickens is going on?   hmmm is really dropping each time by 7, so, 7-7, 0, and 0-7, -7 and so on.

so, the "common difference" is then -7, and our first term is 7, now, who's -175?  let's check.

\bf a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\qquad &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;n=n^{th}\ term\\&#10;a_1=\textit{first term's value}\\&#10;d=\textit{common difference}\\&#10;----------\\&#10;d=-7\\&#10;a_1=7\\&#10;a_n=-175&#10;\end{cases}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;-175=7+(n-1)(-7)\implies -175=7+7-7n&#10;\\\\\\&#10;7n=14+175\implies 7n=189\implies n=\cfrac{189}{7}\implies n=\stackrel{terms}{27}
