HELP ILL GIVE BRAINLIEST

Mathematics

Problem 1

To begin with, Aldi has 0 mg of the medicine in his bloodstream.

Then Haidar gives her dog 150 mg of the medicine.

The day progresses along and at the end of the day, 40% of the medicine remains. So 0.40*150 = 60 mg remains.

At the start of day 2, Haidar gives another 150 mg dose. The 60 mg bumps up to 60+150 = 210 mg. This becomes 0.40*210 = 84 mg at the end of day 2.

At the start of day 3, she gives her dog yet another 150 mg dose. So the 84 increases to 84+150 = 234. This decays to 0.40*234 = 93.6 mg at the end of day 3.

Finally, at the start of day 4, the 150 mg dose bumps the 93.6 up to 93.6+150 =  243.6 mg, which then decays to 0.40*243.6 = 97.44 mg.

Here's a table to summarize everything

\begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|} \cline{1-4}
& \text{Start} & \text{When meds are given} & \text{End}\\ \cline{1-4}
\text{Day} & \text{x} & \text{y = 150+x} & \text{z = 40\% of y }\\ \cline{1-4}
\text{1} & \text{0} & \text{150} & \text{60}\\ \cline{1-4}
\text{2} & \text{60} & \text{210} & \text{84}\\ \cline{1-4}
\text{3} & \text{84} & \text{234} & \text{93.6}\\ \cline{1-4}
\text{4} & \text{93.6} & \text{243.6} & \text{97.44}\\ \cline{1-4}
\end{array}\\
\text{All values in the table are amounts in mg}

================================================

Problem 2

The first term is a_1 = 0 to indicate the dog has 0 mg of medicine in his bloodstream to start off with.

Then we add on 150 mg to that amount, and take 40% of the sum.

This indicates that a_2 = 0.40(150+a_1)

Similarly,

a_3 = 0.40(150+a_2)

and so on.

In general, we have this recursive definition

\begin{cases}
a_1 = 0\\
a_n = 0.40(150+a_{n-1})
\end{cases}

The a_n refers to the nth dose while a_{n-1} is the dose amount just before the nth dose.

This sequence is neither arithmetic nor geometric.

It's not arithmetic because we aren't adding the same number to each term to get the next term. It's not geometric because we aren't applying the same common ratio to multiply from term to term.

The mix of "plus 150" and "times 0.40" is almost like this is a hybrid of arithmetic and geometric respectively. However, it's not purely one or the other.

Carlos Martin received a statement from his bank showing a balance of $56.75 as of March 15. His checkbook shows a balance of $8
Alenkinab [10]
Answer is $22.37:
You subtract $56.75 from $87.37,which equals $30.62, then you add the 2 checks that the bank didn't return and subtract that amount from the $30.62.

Lissie set a goal to save $320 for a new computer. So far she has saved $112. What percent of her goal has Lissie saved so far?
Mariulka [41]
These are false. Tami will need to work 11 weeks to get to her goal. To find out this problem, first take out the 100 from the 320 which then gives you 220.  Then divide 220 by 20 which gives you 11. 1 is wrong because Tami does not have to work more than 21 weeks to get to her goal. 2 is also wrong because Tami does not need to save more that 11 weeks to get to her goal, she has to work 11 weeks only.
