(1 point) Find a formula for the nth term in the sequence: 17,−17/8,17/27,−17/64,17/125,…

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

The sequence is:

[tex]17,-\dfrac{17}{8},\dfrac{17}{27},-\dfrac{17}{64},\dfrac{17}{125},...[/tex]

To find:

The formula for the nth term in the given sequence.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]17,-\dfrac{17}{8},\dfrac{17}{27},-\dfrac{17}{64},\dfrac{17}{125},...[/tex]

The given sequence can be written as

[tex]\dfrac{17}{1^3},-\dfrac{17}{2^3},\dfrac{17}{3^3},-\dfrac{17}{4^3},\dfrac{17}{5^3},...[/tex]

The sign are alternative and the absolute value of each term can be defined by the expression [tex]\dfrac{17}{n^3}[/tex], where n is a natural number.

So, the required formula is:

[tex]a_n=(-1)^{n+1}\dfrac{17}{n^3}[/tex]

Therefore, the formula for nth term in the given sequence is [tex]a_n=(-1)^{n+1}\dfrac{17}{n^3}[/tex].

1. Joshua has a ladder that is 12 ft long. He wants to lean the ladder against a vertical wall so that the top of the ladder is 11.8 ft above the ground. For safety reasons, he wants the angle the ladder makes with the ground to be no greater than 75°. Will the ladder be safe at this height? Show your work and draw a diagram to support your answer.

Answers

Answer:

So we'll use trig to solve this because it's a right triangle. The hypotenuse is the ladder (h) and the two smaller sides are the ground and the vertical wall (w).

That angle ladder makes with the ground = €

SOH: sin € = opposite/hypotenuse

No the ladder won't be safe!!!

Now let's make it safe:

The ladder's length (w) is constant, so stays 12

So now let's ask in an inequality what height will be safe (75° or less)

what does that mean?? well as long as you put the ladder against the wall so that the height from ground to top of the ladder is < 11.6 ft!!

Hope that helps! :-D

What is the graph of the function f(x) = the quantity of x squared plus 4 x minus 12, all over x plus 6 ? (1 point)

Answers

x^2 + 4x -12 = (x+6)(x-2)

so
(x+6)(x-2)
---------------- = x - 2
x + 6

f(x) = x -2


because
if x = -6
then y = -6 - 2 = -8

(-6,-8) is the order pair

Solve for x in the equation x2 + 4x-4-8.
O x= -6 or x = 2
O x--2+/- 2_/2
O x=-2 or x = 6
O x-2+/-2_/3​

Answers

x = 2 , or x = -6
so the first option

The solution of the equation is x= -6 or x = 2.

What is Equation?

Equations are mathematical statements with two algebraic expressions flanking the equals (=) sign on either side.

It demonstrates the equality of the relationship between the expressions printed on the left and right sides. LHS = RHS is a common mathematical formula.

Coefficients, variables, operators, constants, terms, expressions, and the equal to sign are some of the components of an equation. The "=" sign and terms on both sides must always be present when writing an equation.

Given:

We have the Equation x²+ 4x -4 - 8 or x² + 4x - 12.

Now Factorizing the equation we get

x² + 4x - 12

= x² + 6x - 2x  - 12.

= x (x+ 6) - 2( x+ 6)

= (x -2) (x+ 6)

So, x-2 = 0 or x+ 6= 0

x= 2 or x= -6

Thus, the solution of the equation is x= -6 or x = 2.

Can someone please explain the answer step by step pls.

Answers

Answer:

a) x= 29, y= 87

b) x= 19, y= 45

Step-by-step explanation:

Q5. a) Let the first number be x and the second number be y.

The sum of 2 integers is 116.

x +y= 116 -----(1)

The second number is three times the first number.

y= 3x -----(2)

Substitute (2) into (1):

x +3x= 116

4x= 116

x= 116 ÷4

x= 29

Substitute x= 29 into (2):

y= 3(29)

y= 87

b) Let the smaller number be x and the larger number be y.

x +y= 64 -----(1)

y -x= 26 -----(2)

Since we have to use substitution to solve the equations, let's first rewrite an equation to make one of the variables the subject of the equation.

From (1):

x= 64 -y -----(3)

Substitute (3) into (2):

y -(64 -y)= 26

y -64 +y= 26 (expand bracket)

2y= 26 +64 (simplify, +64 on both sides)

2y= 90

y= 90 ÷2

y= 45

Substitute y= 45 into (3):

x= 64 -45

x= 19

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  5/8 or 5/9

Step-by-step explanation:

The fraction will be exactly ...

  5/(8 1/2) = 10/17   ⇒   (8 1/2)×(10/17) = 5

__

The fraction will be approximately ...

  5/8 or 5/9

The denominator will be a number that makes (8 1/2)/(denominator) ≈ 1. For that denominator, the numerator will be 5, so that we have ...

  (8 1/2) × (5/denominator) ≈ 5

  (8 1/2)/(denominator) ≈ 1 .  . . . . . . . divide by 5

If we want the denominator to be an integer, we could choose either 8 or 9. If we choose 8, the result will be slightly more than 5; if we choose 9, the result will be slightly less.

  (8 1/2) × (5/8) = 5.3125 ≈ 5

  (8 1/2) × (5/9) = 4.722... ≈ 5

Either 5/8 or 5/9 will give a product of about 5.

Answer:

it should be the graph on the bottom right

Step-by-step explanation:

The income should be more than the cost in order to make a profit and that happens for Leanne when she sells 8 quilts, so the 8 should be on the x-axis (the axis named "Quilts Sold")

The income should be 0 in the beginning bc when she sells 0 quilts she will be earning 0.

after selling 8 quilts her income will be higher than her costs

(Though naming the y-axis as "profit" is not accurate bc when she sells 0 quilts she will lose money since she will be spend money to make the quilts but not earn the money to compensate for the cost).

with all of these reasons combined the correct should be the one on the bottom right

Answer:

9. B. 32 millimeters

10. C. 7 inches

11. C. 56.24 millimeters

13. B. 14.13 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

9. Radius of a circle or any circular shape = ½ of its diameter

Diameter of the disk = 64 millimeters

Radius of the disk = ½(64) = 32 millimeters

10. Width of the cooler = 6 in.

Length = 8 in.

Volume = 336 in.³

Height = ?

Formula for volume of a rectangular prism = L*W*H

Plug in the values

336 = 8*6*H

336 = 48*H

Divide both sides by 48

336/48 = H

H = 7 inches

A store gives customers a markup of 13%. If the store sells a belt for $25, what was the wholesale price paid for the belt by the store?

Answers

Answer:

$22.12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the wholesale price (the price before adding the markup).

The markup is 13%, so 13% of x is added to x.

x + 13%x = $25

x + 0.13x = 25

1.13x = 25

x = 25/1.13

x = 22.12
