---- PLEASE HELP <3 .. with steps :( <3

Zielflug [23.3K]

1) 6, 18, 54

2) 5/3, 14/9, 41/27

3) 1.5, 2.5, 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The function that we have in this problem is

$g(x)=3x$

We want to find the first 3 iterations.

The initial value is:

x = 2

To find the value of the 1st iteration, we just substitute this value into the expression of the function, and we get:

$g_1(x)=3x=3\cdot 2 = 6$

The to find the value of the 2nd iteration, we just substitute this value into the expression of the function, and we get:

$g_2(x)=3\cdot g_1(x)=3\cdot 6 = 18$

Finally, the 3rd iteraction is given by:

$g_3(x)=3g_2(x)=3\cdot 18=54$

Here in this problem the function that we have to use is

$g(x)=\frac{1}{3}x+1$

The initial value is

$x=2$

So the first iteration is given by

$g_1(x)=\frac{1}{3}\cdot 2 + 1 = \frac{5}{3}$

To find the 2nd iteration, we substitute this value into g(x) again:

$g_2(x)=\frac{1}{3}g_1+1=\frac{1}{3}\cdot \frac{5}{3}+1=\frac{5}{9}+1=\frac{14}{9}$

Finally, to find the 3rd iteration, we substitute this value into g(x) again:

$g_3(x)=\frac{1}{3}\cdot \frac{14}{9}+1=\frac{14}{27}+1=\frac{41}{27}$

The function in this problem is

$g(x)=-|x-2|+3$

The initial value is

x = 0.5

So, the first iteration is:

$g_1(x)=-1|0.5-2|+3=-1|-1.5|+3=-1\cdot 1.5 +3=-1.5+3=1.5$

The second iteration is given by

$g_2(x)=-|g_1-2|+3=-|1.5-2|+3=--0.5+3=2.5$

Finally, the 3rd iteration is

$g_3(x)=-|g_2-2|+3=-|2.5-2|+3=-0.5+3=2.5$

Graph the function y = |1.6x – 2| – 3.2. Over which interval is the function increasing?

klasskru [66]

You are to graph y = |1.6x – 2| – 3.2. I trust you know that the graph of y=|x| is v-shaped, opening up, with vertex at (0,0).

Let's rewrite y = |1.6x – 2| – 3.2 by factoring 1.6 out of |1.6x - 2|:

y = 1.6*|x – 2/1.6| – 3.2

This tells us that the vertex of y = |1.6x – 2| – 3.2 is at (2/1.6, -3.2). If you need an explanation of why this is, please ask.

Plot the vertex at (1.25, -3.2).
Find the y-intercept: Let x = 0 in y = |1.6x – 2| – 3.2 and find y:

y = 2-3.2 = -1.2

The y-intercept is located at 0, -1.2)

Plot this y-intercept.

Now draw a straight line from the vertex to this y-intercept. Reflect that line across the y-axis to obtain the other half of the graph.

Given the rule: an=7(1/2)n-1 identify the first term

Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

using the rule given: 2.5
using an exponential rule: 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Evaluating the linear rule given, for n = 1, we have ...

a1 = 7(1/2)(1) -1 = 7/2 -1 = 5/2 = 2.5

_____

We suspect you may intend the exponential function ...

an = 7(1/2)^(n-1)

Then, for n = 1, we have ...

a1 = 7(1/2)^(1 -1) = 7(1) = 7 . . . . the first term is 7

_____

When writing an exponential expression in plain text, it requires the exponential operator, a caret (^). If the exponent contains any arithmetic, as this one does, it must be enclosed in parentheses.

Hamburger sells 3 pounds for six dollars if Samantha 510 pounds of hamburger how much will she pay

Lina20 [59]

I believe you meant to say that if Samantha bought 510 pounds of hamburger, how much will she pay?

Now from the information we already have, we know that 3 pounds of hamburger will cost 6 dollars.

The next thing we need to know is how much one pound of hamburger will cost. This will help us calculate how much the rest will cost.

we now form an equation to assist us.
3 = 6
1= x

(where x represents the unknown price of one pound of hamburger)

Now we must cross-multiply:

3 * x = 6 x 1

3x = 6

x = 6/3

x = 2

therefore one pound of hamburger costs 2 dollars.

Now, If one pound costs 2 dollars, how about 510 pounds?

We simply multiply: 510 x 2 = 1,020

Therefore Samantha will pay 1, 020 dollars for 510 pounds of hamburger.
