if the nth term of a number sequence is n2-5, find the first 3 terms and the 10th term

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

-4, -1, 495

Step-by-step explanation:

Use n = {1, 2, 3, 10}.

  n^2 -5 = {1, 2, 3, 10}^2 -5 = {1, 4, 9, 100} -5 = {-4, -1, 4, 95}

The first three terms are -4, -1, 4.

The 10th term is 95.

When driving in England, Brian drove through several speed cameras. On one drive, Brian left his hotel and after 7 minutes he was 2.5 km away and at that moment was measured going 0.5 kpm (kilometers per minute). Later, 18 minutes after he started driving, he was 14.8 km from the hotel and at that moment was measured going 0.8 kpm.
A. Find the linearization at 7 minutes.
B. Find the linearization at 18 minutes.
C. Compute two approximations for Brian's distance from his hotel at 14 minutes, using the linearizations from parts a and b.
D. Which approximation do you think is better? Why?

Answers

Solution :

The formula for the linearization of a function [tex]$f(x)$[/tex] at a point [tex]$x$[/tex] = a is given as

[tex]$L(x)=f(a)+(x-a)f'(a)$[/tex]

Assuming the time is t and the distance travelled is [tex]$f(t)$[/tex], that makes the speed as [tex]$f'(t)$[/tex].

So substituting them in the linearization formula,

A. At t = 7 minutes

   f(7) = 2.5 km

    f'(7) = 0.5 kpm

  ∴ [tex]$L_7(t)=f(7)+(t-7)f'(7)$[/tex]

             [tex]$=2.5+(t-7)0.5$[/tex]

              [tex]$=2.5+0.5t-3.5$[/tex]

              [tex]$=0.5t-1$[/tex]

B. At t = 18 minutes

      f(18) = 14.8 km

    f'(18) = 0.8 kpm

  ∴ [tex]$L_{18}(t)=f(18)+(t-18)f'(18)$[/tex]

               [tex]$=14.8+(t-18)0.8$[/tex]

              [tex]$=14.8+0.8t-14.4$[/tex]

              [tex]$=0.8t-0.4$[/tex]

C. Substituting the value of t as 14 in both the linearization to determine the position at 14 minutes, we get

[tex]$L_7(14)=0.5(14)-1.0$[/tex]

          = 7 - 1

          = 6 km

[tex]$L_{18}(14)=0.8(14)+0.4$[/tex]

            = 11.2 + 0.4

            = 11.6 km

D. According to the linearization at 7, the distance travelled between the 7 minutes and 14 minutes is = 6 km - 2.5 km

                                           = 3.5 km

And between the 14 minutes and 18 minutes is = 14.8 km - 6 km

                                                                              = 8.8 km

This is an average speed of 0.5 kpm in the first interval and an average speed of 2.2 kpm.

Now, according to the linearization of 18, the distance travelled between the 7 minutes and the 14 minutes is = 11.6 km - 2.5 km

                                                           = 9.1 km

And between 14 minutes and 18 minutes is = 14.8 km - 11.6 km

                                                                       = 3.2 km

This gives an average speed of 1.3 kpm in the first interval and 0.8 kpm in the second interval.

Therefore, the second approximation is the better one since the average speed are closer to the actual readings in the second linearization.

How do I find the range of this rational function, how do I do the steps in order to find it, please help!!!​

Answers

Answer:

Range= (0,∞) and (-∞,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Theres no real process to finding this out you just look at what type of function you have, your graph and your asymptote. We can see that the parts above the asymptote go up and towards ∞ and the part below goes down to -∞ but they can not cross 0

Answer:

(-infinity, -32/81] U (0, positive infintiy).

( use the sideways 8 symbol for infinity).

Step-by-step explanation:

The range is all possible y values in a function.

We can find the inverse of the function to find the range.

[tex]y = \frac{8}{ {x}^{2} - 7x - 8 } [/tex]

Replace x with y

[tex]x = \frac{8}{ {y}^{2} - 7y - 8 } [/tex]

Write the LCD as two binomial,

[tex]x = \frac{8}{(y + 1)(y - 8)} [/tex]

Multiply both sides by both binomial

[tex]x(y + 1)(y - 8) = 8[/tex]

[tex](xy + x)(y - 8) = 8[/tex]

[tex]x {y}^{2} - 8yx + xy - 8x = 8[/tex]

[tex]xy {}^{2} - 8yx + xy = 8 + 8x[/tex]

[tex]y( {x}^{2} - 8x + x) = 8 + 8x[/tex]

[tex] \frac{8 + 8x}{ {x}^{2} - 7x } [/tex]

[tex] {x}^{2} - 7x = 0[/tex]

[tex] {x}^{2} - 7x + 12.25 = 12.25[/tex]

[tex](x - 3.5) {}^{2} = 12.25[/tex]

[tex](x - 3.5) = 3.5[/tex]

[tex]x = 3.5[/tex]

Plug that in to the function to find it range.

We get approximately

[tex] - \frac{35}{81} [/tex]

So this means a point on our function must include -35/81.

The vertical asymptote is 0 so our y cannot be zero but it goes infinitely up so our range is

(-infinity, -32/81]U (0, positive infintiy).

( use the sideways 8 symbol for infinity).

Find the value of x

Answers

Answer: x is 13

Step-by-step explanation:

90 - 67 is 23. Then you figure out what times 2 minus 3 is 23. Which would be 13. 13 times 2 is 26 minus 3 is 23. 67 + 23 is 90 ( right triangle)

Answer:

x=13

Step-by-step explanation:

The two angles are complementary, meaning that they both add up to 90°.

So, since we know that one of the angles is 67°, we can find the other one by subtracting 67 from 90.

90-67=23

So the equation is equal to 23.

2x-3=23

Add 3 to both sides.

2x=26

Divide both sides by 2.

x = 13

D. states conditions under which a variable involving the sum of Y1​,..., Yn i.i.d. variables becomes the standard normal distribution.

Answers

Answer:

Option D (States.......distribution) is the appropriate choice.

Step-by-step explanation:

The superposition principle says that perhaps the sample distribution better reflects the regular distribution.

Because this sample size or group grows, all observations appear identical although irrespective of that same population demographics or distributions.It shows everybody precisely how the measures are to be distributed if we take a friendly reminder from some kind of population group.

The latter choices should not affect the situation involved. The reaction, then, is the right one.
