HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mathematics
1 answer:
Alekssandra [29.7K]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

4) a₁₅ = 128

5) B. a_n=a_{n-1}+6

Step-by-step explanation:

4)

This is an arithmetic sequence, where all terms have a common difference:

a_n=a_1+(n-1)d

Here, the common difference is 9.

11-2=9\\20-11=9

Use that to write the equation and solve for a₁₅:

a_n=2+(n-1)9\\\\a_{15}=2+(15-1)9\\a_{15}=2+(14)9\\a_{15}=2+126\\a_{15}=128

5)

This is also an arithmetic sequence, but it is a recursive arithmetic sequence in the form of:

a_n=a_{n-1}+d

This simply states that each term is d more than the term before it.

Here, the common difference is 6:

2--4=6\\8-2=6\\14-8=6

And the equation for this is B. a_n=a_{n-1}+6

elixir [45]
  You can set up a proportion to solve for the percentage of the coins that are pennies. Of course, there are alternate methods as well, but this is one method. First, you define the percentage of the coins that are pennies to be equal to a variable, such as x. Next, you write 240/600 = x/100, due to how "x" is the amount out of 100 (since per cent is for every cent (out of 100)), and 240 would correspond to x while 600 would correspond to 100. This proportion may also be written as 100/x = 600/240, or 240/x = 600/100. In order to solve for x, you use cross-products, or you multiply each denominator by the numerator of the other fraction. You will be left with a numerical value that's equal to a number times x, and then you divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of x in order to isolate x. As a result, you will have the percentage of the coins that are pennies to be your answer. Remember to write the units for every numerator and denominator in your proportion.

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

a)45min

b)900min

Step-by-step explanation:

We were told that it takes Matt 3 minutes to read one page in a book.

It implies that 3minutes = 1page of the book

Then he continues to read at the same pace, he can read 15 similar pages in minutes.

a)Then, he can read 15 similar pages in

15x3 minutes.which is 45minutes.

b)Then if the book has 300 pages, it will take him. 300×3 minutes to read it.which is 900mins

Mrac [35]

At the same rate, the price of 12 bottles of water at the convenience store would be

(12/10)·$11.80 = $14.16 . . . . . this is more than $13.80

On average the cost for the same number of bottles of water is higher at the convenience store. The grocery store has the better buy.

What are the first five terms of a geometric sequence in which the second term is 6 and the fourth term is 54
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

  2, 6, 18, 54, 162

Step-by-step explanation:

In a geometric sequence, terms that are 2 terms apart (2nd & 4th, for example) have a ratio that is the 2nd power of the common ratio. Since 54/6 = 9 = 3², the common ratio is 3.

The first term will be the 2nd term divided by that ratio; the 5th term will be the 4th term multiplied by that ratio. You can figure the 3rd term any of several ways (and they should all give the same value): multiply the 2nd term, divide the 3rd term, or find the geometric mean of the 2nd & 4th terms: √(6·54) = 18.

If a certain cannon is fired from a height of 8.8 meters above the​ ground, at a certain​ angle, the height of the cannonball ab
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

It would take approximately 6.50 second for the cannonball to strike the ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided function.

h(t)=-4.9t^2+30.5t+8.8

We need to find the time takes for the cannonball to strike the ground.

Substitute h(t) = 0 in above function.

-4.9t^2+30.5t+8.8=0

Multiply both sides by 10.

-49t^2+305t+88=0

For a quadratic equation of the form ax^2+bx+c=0 the solutions are: x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

Substitute a = -49, b = 305 and c=88

t=\frac{-305+\sqrt{305^2-4\left(-49\right)88}}{2\left(-49\right)}=-\frac{-305+\sqrt{110273}}{98}\\t = \frac{-305-\sqrt{305^2-4\left(-49\right)88}}{2\left(-49\right)}= \frac{305+\sqrt{110273}}{98}

Ignore the negative value of t as time can't be a negative number.

Thus,

t=\frac{305+\sqrt{110273}}{98}\approx6.50

Hence, it would take approximately 6.50 second for the cannonball to strike the ground.
