Answer: a) An = An-1 + An-2
b) 55ways
Step-by-step explanation:
a) a nickel is 5 cents and a dime is 10cent so a multiple of 5 cents is the possible way to pay the tolls in both choices.
Let An represents the number of possible ways the driver can pay a toll of 5n cents, so that
An = 5n cents
Case 1: Using a nickel for payment which is 5 cents, the number of ways given as;
An-1 = 5( n-1)
Case 2: using a dime which is two 5 cents, the number of ways is given as;
An-2 = 5(n-2)
Summing up the number of ways, we have
An = An-1 + An-2
From the relation,
If n= 0, Ao= 1
n =1, A1= 1
b) 45 cents paid in multiples of 5cents will give us 9 ways(A9)
From the relation, we have that
Ao = 1
A1 = 1
An =An-1 + An-2
Ao = 1
A1 = 1
A2 = A1+Ao = 1+1= 2
A3 = A2 + A1 = 3
A4 = A3+A2=5
A5=A4+A3=8
A6=A5+A4=13
A7 =A6+A5 = 21
A8= A7+A6= 34
A9= A8+A7= 55
So there are 55ways to pay 45cents.

Answer:
p(t) = 0 for t = 1
p(t) = 1 for t = 1/8 = 8^-1
Step-by-step explanation:
the graph you will have to do yourself.
just go there and type in

well, don't type "log" in letters.
you start by typing the "-" sign, and then you need to look up the functions by clicking on the "funcs" button and look for the log functions .
pick the

option. and then simply enter 8 as the first parameter in the {} brackets and x as the second in the () brackets.
and then you see.
any logarithm is 0 for x (or t) = 1.
because any a⁰ = 1.
and the logarithm gives you that exponent of the base number that leads to the given x value.
in other words : a logarithm is the inverse function of an exponential function.
the exponential function is
y = a^x
and the logarithm then determines

that is all.
and

means that the logarithm itself delivered -1.
and 8^-1 = 1/8
so, p(t) = 1 for t = 1/8
Just pretend it’s a 3d right angle triangle and find the length of the hypotenuse.
d = sqrt(6^2 + 10^2 + 15^2) = 19
