Enter the explicit rule for the geometric sequence.



1/4, 1/2, 1, 2, 4, …

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]a_n = (\frac{1}{4})2^{n-1}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Geometric sequence:

In a geometric sequence, the quotient between consecutive terms is the same, and this quotient is given by q.

The explicit rule of a geometric sequence is given by:

[tex]a_n = a_1q^{n-1}[/tex]

In which [tex]a_1[/tex] is the first term.

1/4, 1/2, 1, 2, 4

This means that [tex]a_1 = \frac{1}{4}[/tex], and:

[tex]q = \frac{4}{2} = \frac{2}{1} = \frac{1}{\frac{1}{2}} = \frac{\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{1}{4}} = 2[/tex]

So the explicit rule is:

[tex]a_n = (\frac{1}{4})2^{n-1}[/tex]

In ΔTUV, the measure of ∠V=90°, TV = 28, UT = 53, and VU = 45. What ratio represents the cosecant of ∠U?

Answers

Answer:

Cosecant U = 53 / 28

Step-by-step explanation:

Please see attached photo for diagram.

We'll begin by calculating the ratio of sine U. This can be obtained as follow:

Angle U = θ

Opposite = 28

Hypothenus = 53

Sine U =?

Sin θ = Opposite / Hypothenus

Sine θ = 28 / 53

Thus,

Sine U = 28 / 53

Finally, we shall determine the ratio of cosecant U. This can be obtained as follow:

Sine U = 28 / 53

Cosecant U =?

Cosecant U = 1 / Sine U

Cosecant U = 1 ÷ 28 / 53

Cosecant U = 1 × 53 / 28

Cosecant U = 53 / 28

Answers

Answer:

Point [tex]J(4,0)[/tex] lies on [tex]x-[/tex]axis and point [tex]M(-2,-3)[/tex] lies quadrant III.

Step-by-step explanation:

A coordinate plane is a plane that is divided into four quadrants by the coordinate axes.

Here, coordinate axes are [tex]x-[/tex]axis and [tex]y-[/tex]axis.

Let's first mark the points in the coordinate plane.

See the attached figure.

From the figure, it can be observed that point [tex]J(4,0)[/tex] lies on [tex]x-[/tex]axis and point [tex]M(-2,-3)[/tex] lies quadrant III.

Answers

Answer:

d. c = 100; (x – 10)²

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that (x+a)²=x²+2ax+a².

In our case, 2a=-20, so 'a' must be -10.

Since c=a², and a=-10, c=(-10²)=100.

Since a=-10, the perfect square is (x – 10)²

When money is spent on goods and services, those who receive the money also spend some of it. The people receiving some of the twice-spent money will spend some of that, and so on. Economists call this chain reaction the multiplier effect. In a hypothetical isolated community, the local government begins the process by spending D dollars. Suppose that each recipient of spent money spends 100c% and saves 100s% of the money that he or she receives. The values c and s are called the marginal propensity to consume and the marginal propensity to save and, of course, course, c + s = 1. Let Sn be the total spending that has been generated after n transactions.

Required:
Find an equation for Sn.

Answers

Solution :

If [tex]S_n[/tex] is the total spending generated after n transactions, then [tex]a_n[/tex] is the spending generated during the n-th transaction. Since the government spends D dollars, then [tex]a_1[/tex] = D.

Then the second person will receive D dollars and spend [tex]D_c[/tex] dollars. Therefore, [tex]a_2=D_c[/tex]. The next person will receive [tex]D_c[/tex] dollars, which means they are spending [tex]a_3 = (D_c)c = Dc^2[/tex] dollars. Therefore,

[tex]a_1 = D[/tex]

[tex]a_2=D_c[/tex]

[tex]a_3 = Dc^2[/tex]

[tex]a_4 = (Dc^2)c= Dc^3[/tex]

....

[tex]a_n=Dc^{n-1}[/tex]

∴ [tex]S_n=a_1+a_2+a_3+....+a_n[/tex]

  [tex]S_n = D+Dc+Dc^2+Dc^3+...+Dc^{n-1}[/tex]

  [tex]S_n= D(1+c+c^2+...+c^{n-1})[/tex]

  [tex]S-n=D . \frac{1-c^n}{1-c}[/tex]

(25points) Which of the following is the ratio of the area of the shaded region to the total area of the square
a)1/2
b)1/3
c)3/8
d)3/4

Answers

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find ratio of the area of the shaded region to the total area of the square.

First, we can find the total area of the square. Since QR = 7, each side of the square measures 7. Therefore, its area is:

[tex]A=(7)^2=49\text{ units}^2[/tex]

Instead of finding the shaded area, we can find the areas that are not shaded. Subtracting that into the total area will then give us the shaded area.

QRP is a triangle. Since PQRS is a square, QR = 7 = RS = SP = PQ.

So, the area of ΔQRP is:

[tex]\displaystyle A_{\Delta QRP}=\frac{1}{2}(7)(7)=24.5[/tex]

UTS is also a triangle. We are given that RU = US and PT = TS. So, Points U and T bisect RS and SP, respectively. Since RS = SP = 7, RU = US = PT = TS = 3.5. So, the area of ΔUTS is:

[tex]\displaystyle A_{\Delta UTS}=\frac{1}{2}(3.5)(3.5)=6.125[/tex]

Therefore, the total area of the white region is:

[tex]A_{\text{white}}=6.125+24.5=30.625[/tex]

Thus, the shaded region is:

[tex]A_{\text{shaded}}=49-30.625=18.375[/tex]

Then the ratio of the shaded region to the total area of the square will be:

[tex]\displaystyle R_{\text{shaded:total}}=\frac{18.375}{49}=\frac{3}{8}[/tex]

Our answer is C.

A motor cycle purchased for $9,000 today will be worth 6% less each year. For what can you expect to sell the motorcycle at the end of 5years

Answers

Answer:

$5,956.2

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the amount after 5years using the formula

A =P(1+r)^n

A = 9000(1+0.06)^5

A = 9000(1.06)^5

A = 9000(1.3382)

A = 12,043.8

Interest after 5 years = 12,043.8 - 9000

Interest after 5 years = 3,043.8

Since it will be worth 6% less each year, the amount after 5years will be 9000 - 3,043.8 = $5,956.2
