The formula for obtaining the value of a term of a sequence is given as a

as a recursive formula.

Responses:

  • The information as a sequence is; R1, 2·R1, 4·R1, 8·R1, 16·R1, ...
  • The sequence of the information is a geometric sequence

<h3>How is the given information expressed as a sequence?</h3>

The amount of pocket money Smith gets = 2 × The amount he gets in the previous day

The amount Smith gets on the first day = R1

Required:

The given information expressed as a sequence.

Solution:

The amount of money smith gets can be expressed as follows;

Amount he gets on day 1 = R1

On day 2, R2 = 2·R1

On day 3, R3 = 2·R2 = 2·2·R1 = 4·R1

On day 4, R4 = 2·R3 = 2·2·2·R1 = 8·R1

On day 5, R5 = 2·R4 = 2·2·2·2··R1 = 16·R1

The information written as a sequence is therefore;

  • R1, 2·R1, 4·R1, 8·R1, 16·R1, ...

  • The type of sequence is a<u> geometric sequence, or progression</u> where the first term is R1, and the common ratio, r = 2

Morgan is reupholstering an old chair with two circular cushions. Each cushion has a circumference of 7. 85 feet. He will need t
kramer

The total fabric Morgan needs to cover the cushions will be 19.64 square feet.

It is given that each cushion has a circumference of 7.85 feet.

It is known that the circumference of a circle = 2πr, where 'r' is the radius of the circle.

2πr = 7.85

r = 1.25

<h3>What is an area of a circle?</h3>

area of a circle is πr².

now, we can calculate the area = π× 1.25² = 4.91 square feet

since each circular cushion has two circular faces so the total number of faces Morgan needs to cover will be 4.

Therefore, the total fabric needed= 4×4.91 = 19.64 square feet.

6.) the following function represents the profit P(n) in dollars that a concert promoter makes by selling tickets for n dollars
marissa [1.9K]
For Part A, what to do first is to equate the given equation to zero in order to find your x intercepts (zeroes)

0=-250n^2+3,250n-9,000 after factoring out, we get

-250(n-4)(n-9) and these are your zero values.

For Part B, you need to square the function from the general equation Ax^2+Bx+C=0. So to do that, we use the equated form of the equation 0=-250n^2+3,250n-9,000 and in order to have a positive value of 250n^2, we divide both sides by -1

250n^2-3,250n+9,000=0

to simplify, we divide it by 250 to get n^2-13n+36=0 or n^2-13n = -36 (this form is easier in order to complete the square, ax^2+bx=c)

in squaring, we need to apply <span><span><span>(<span>b/2</span>)^2 to both sides where our b is -13 so,
(-13/2)^2 is 169/4

so the equation now becomes n^2-13n+169/4 = 25/4 or to simplify, we apply the concept of a perfect square binomial, so the equation turns out like this 

(n-13/2)^2 = 25/4 then to find the value of n, we apply the square root to both sides to obtain n-13/2 = 5/2 and n is 9. This gives us the confirmation from Part A. 

For Part C, since the function is a binomial so the graph is a parabola. The axis of symmetry would be x=5.

Find the value of b in the graph of y=3x+b if it is known that the graph goes through the point: N(0,5)
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

I believe b is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

When you place the points in the values, you get 5=3(0)+b. When you simplify it, you get 5=b. I really hope this is correct, I apologize if it isn't! I hope this helps! :)

21. Angela until the same restaurant four times. Each time she ordered a salad and left at $ 5 tip. She spent a total of $ 54. W
Natalka [10]

So if Angela entered the same restaurant 4 times, we have 4 "instances" of her entering the restaurant.

Each instance, she ordered a salad. The price of this salad is unknown, so we'll say the price is "S".

Each instance, she payed a $5 tip.

So we have 4 instances of spending S, and 4 instances of spending 5.

We know this totals 54.

Knowing all of this information, we can write our equation like this:

4(S + 5) = 54

Divide

S + 5 = 13.50

Subtract

S = 8.50

The cost of salad is $8.50
