Find an explicit rule for the nth term of the sequence.

The second and fifth terms of a geometric sequence are 20 and 1280, respectively.

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

in a geometric sequence there is a constant factor x that is multiplied with every previous term to create the next one.

a2 = 20

a5 = 1280 = a2×x×x×x = a2×x³ = 20x³

64 = x³

x = 4

=> a1 = 5

therefore

an = an-1×4 =

[tex]a1 \times {4}^{n - 1} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A perpendicular bisector, intersects a line at its mid point and is perpendicular to it.

Calculate slope m using the slope formula

m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 7, 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (9, 13)

m = [tex]\frac{13-1}{9-(-7)}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{12}{9+7}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{12}{16}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

[tex]m_{perpendicular}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{m}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{\frac{3}{4} }[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] ←  slope of perpendicular bisector

Given endpoints (x₁, y₁ ) and (x₂, y₂ ) then the midpoint is

([tex]\frac{x_{1}+x_{2} }{2}[/tex], [tex]\frac{y_{1}+y_{2} }{2}[/tex] )

using (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 7, 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (9, 13) , then

midpoint = ( [tex]\frac{-7+9}{2}[/tex], [tex]\frac{1+13}{2}[/tex] ) = ( [tex]\frac{2}{2}[/tex], [tex]\frac{14}{2}[/tex] ) = (1, 7 )

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = - [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] , then

y = - [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute the midpoint (1, 7) into the partial equation

7 = - [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] + c ⇒ c = [tex]\frac{21}{3}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{25}{3}[/tex]

y = - [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] x + [tex]\frac{25}{3}[/tex] ← equation of perpendicular bisector

Using two independent samples, two population means are compared to determine if a difference exists. The population standard deviations are equal. The number in the first sample is fifteen and the number in the second sample is 12. How many degrees of freedom are associated with the critical value

Answers

Answer:

Hence the degrees of freedom are associated with the critical value is 25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using two independent samples, two population means are  

compared to determine if a difference exists, the population standard deviation is equal.  

sample size 1 = [tex]n_{1}[/tex]= 15 and sample size 2 = [tex]n_{2}[/tex] = 12  

since, population standard deviations are equal, required degrees of freedom

Break it into two shapes, a rectangle that is 7 x 10 x 6

And a triangle with a base of 12-10 = 2 and a height of 7

Volume of rectangle : 7 x 10 x 6 = 420

Volume of triangle: 1/2 x 2 x 7 = 7 x 6 = 42

Total volume = 420 + 42 = 462 cubic centimeters.

Answer: 462

The value of a is:

Answers

Answer:

a is the perimeter which is given as 820 mm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter, P = 820 mm

Length is 100 m less than twice of width

let the length is x and the width is y.

So,

x = 2 y - 100

P = 2 (x + y)

820 = 2 (2y - 100 + y)

410 = 3 y - 100

3 y = 510

y = 170 mm

x = 2 x 170 - 100 = 240 mm

The equation is

2 x = 2 y = a

where, a is the perimeter which is given as 820 mm.

The population of a place in a particular year increased by 15% next year it decreased by 15%. Find the net increase or decrease percent in the initial population

Answers

Answer:

there was a decrease of 2.25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let me illustrate with an example

Assume the population is 100

percentage increase = 100 + 15 = 115% = 1.15%

Population after 15% increase = 100 x 1.15 = 115

Percentage decrease = 100 - 15 = 85% = 0.85

Population after 15% decreases 115 x 0.85 = 97.75

rate of increase = (97.75 / 100) - 1 = -2.25%

determine the dimension of cube when the volume is 1.468mcube​

Answers

Answer:

1.137 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cube is given as the cube of the side. A cube is a 3 dimensional shape with equal sides and 6 faces. If the volume is V and the side is s then

V = s * s * s

Given that the volume is 1.468mcube​ then

s^3 = 1.468

s = cube root of 1.468

An airplane travels 4020 kilometers against the wind in 6 hours and 4800 kilometers with the wind in the same amount of time. What is the rate of the plane in still air and what is the rate of the wind?

Answers

Answer:

Rate of plane 735 km/hr

Rate of wind 65 km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation to determine the rate of the plane in still air

Let Va represent the velocity of the airplane

Let Vw represent the velocity of the wind

When flying with the wind:

(Va+Vw)*(6 hours) = 4800

6Va + 6Vw = 4800

6Vw = 4800 - 6Va

Vw=4800/6-Va

Vw = 800 - Va

When flying against the wind:

(Va-Vw)*(6 hours) = 4020 km

6Va - 6Vw = 4020

Substitute 800-Va for Vw and solve for Va:

6Va - 6(800-Va) = 4020

6Va -4800 + 6Va = 4020

12Va = 8820

Va=8820/12

Va = 735 km/hr

Therefore the rate of the plane in still air is 735 km/hr

Calculation to determine the rate of the wind

Rate of wind:

Vw = 800 - Va

Vw= 800 -735

Vw= 65 km/hr

Therefore the rate of the wind is 65 km/hr
