Answer: D, neither A nor B

Step-by-step explanation: In a function, the x (the input) cannot repeat in the given set of ordered pairs. In Set A, 2 repeats in the third and fourth ordered pairs. In Set B, 9 repeats in the third and fourth ordered pairs as well.

Answer: B

Step-by-step explanation:

Functions and Relations

A relation is just a set of ordered pairs (x,y) . In formal mathematical language, a function is a relation for which: if (x1,y) and (x2,y) are both in the relation, then x1=x2 . This just says that in a function, you can't have two ordered pairs with the same x -value but different y -values.

Answer:

Tn = 4(-6)^n-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Write an explicit formula for an, the nth term of the sequence 4, -24, 144, ....

The sequence is a geometric sequence

Tn = ar^n-1

a is the first term

a = 4

r = -24/4 =144/-24

r = -6

Substitute

Tn = 4(-6)^n-1

At noon, ship A is 50 km west of ship B. Ship A is sailing south at 10 km/h and ship B is sailing north at 20 km/h. How fast is

So hmmm check the picture below

so, we're looking for dr/dt then at 4:00pm or 4 hours later

now, keep in mind that, the distance "x", is not changing, is constant whilst "y" and "r" are moving, that simply means when taking the derivative, that goes to 0

$\bf r^2=x^2+y^2\implies 2r\cfrac{dr}{dt}=0+2y\cfrac{dy}{dt}\implies \cfrac{dr}{dt}=\cfrac{y\frac{dy}{dt}}{r}\quad 
\begin{cases}
\cfrac{dy}{dt}=30\\
r=130\\
y=120
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{dr}{dt}=\cfrac{120\cdot 30}{130}$
