Answer:

The formula would be

T(n) = 64 (-3/4)^n, n=0,1,2,...

or sometimes

T(n) = T(n-1)(-3/4),     T(0) =64, n=0,1,2,...

Step-by-step explanation:

The common ratio is -3/4, i.e.

(-3/4) * 64 = -48

(-3/4) * 48 = 36

(-3/4) * 36 = -27

...

The formula would be

T(n) = 64 (-3/4)^n, n=0,1,2,...

or sometimes

T(n) = T(n-1)(-3/4),     T(0) =64, n=0,1,2,...

Note: Would have been easier if the choices were supplied.

Answer:

3[tex]a^{4}[/tex] - 48

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(a + 2)(3a² + 12)(a - 2)

= (a + 2)(a - 2)(3a² + 12) ← expand the first pair of parenthesis using FOIL

=(a² - 4)(3a² + 12) ← expand using FOIL

= 3[tex]a^{4}[/tex] + 12a² - 12a² - 48 ← collect like terms

= 3[tex]a^{4}[/tex] - 48

Answer:

1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The stick has a length of 5 units

The stick is broken at two points chosen at random

First break: the probability that you get a piece that is 1 unit or longer than 1 units= 1/5.

Second break, the probability that you get a piece that is 1 unit or longer than 1 units is 1/5.

Therefore,

The total probability =probability of first break * probability of second break * original stick unit

=1/5 * 1/5 * 5

= 1/25 *5

=5/25

=1/5

Answer:

17,725/14.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that the blank is represented by x.

Since the question asks what is 16.8% of x, we can set up a proportion where 16.8 out of 100 is equivalent to 212.7 out of x. The 100 represents the "whole" number, which corresponds to x. The 212.7 IS the 16.8 of x.

[tex]\frac{16.8}{100} =\frac{212.7}{x}[/tex]

16.8 * x = 212.7 * 100

16.8x = 21,270

x = 21,270 / 16.8

x = 212,700 / 168

x = 17,725 / 14 = 1,266.071429

To check our work, 1,266.071429 * 0.168 = 212.7.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, for end behavior, the highest power of x is x^3 and it is positive. So towards infinity, the graph will be positive, and towards negative infinity the graph will be negative (because this is a cubic graph)

To find the zeros, you set the equation equal to 0 and solve for x

x^3+2x^2-8x=0

x(x^2+2x-8)=0

x(x+4)(x-2)=0

x=0   x=-4   x=2

So the zeros are at 0, -4, and 2. Therefore, you can plot the points (0,0), (-4,0) and (2,0)

And we can plug values into the original that are between each of the zeros to see which intervals are positive or negative.

Plugging in a -5 gets us -35

-1 gets us 9

1 gets us -5

3 gets us 21

So now you know end behavior, zeroes, and signs of intervals

Answer:

336m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle area is half of base times height so: 1/2*8*12=48m^2

There are 4 triangles so 48*4=192

Then the square base area is side times side so: 12*12=144m^2

Then surface area of model is 192m^2+144m^2=336m^2

Answer:

336 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the surface area of this pyramid by finding the surface area of one of the sides, multiplying it by 4 (as there are 4 sides to the pyramid) then adding it to the surface area of the base.

Each side of this (excluding the base) is a triangle, and to find the area of a triangle we use the equation [tex]\frac{b \cdot h}{2}[/tex].

[tex]\frac{12 \cdot 8}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{96}{2}[/tex]

48.

So, one side of this is 48. Multiplying it by 4 gets us 192.

Now we have to add the area of the base. The area of the bass is a square with side lengths of 12, so we can square 12 to get the area of the bass. 12² = 144.

Now let's add these numbers:

192+144 = 336

So, 336 m² is what this comes out to.

Answer: The length is 15 yards so the answer is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

If  the length is 3 more than the width  the we will represent it by the equation L = w+3    where w is the width and to find the area of a rectangle, we need to multiply the length by the width. so the length is w+3 and the width is w so

w(w+3) = 180   solve for the w

w^2 + 3w = 180     subtract 180 from both sides

w^2 + 3w -180 = 0    find two numbers that their product is -180 and add to 3.

  the number 12 and -15 works out because -12*15= -180  and -15+ 12 =3

We will now have a new quadratic equation as

w^2 - 12w + 15w - 180 = 0  factor by grouping

w(w-12) 15(w-12)= 0     factor out w-12

(w-12)(w+15) = 0    set them both equal  zero.

w -12 = 0      or  w+15= 0  

w =  12      or  w = -15

Since we know that -15 can't represent a distance, then 12 is the width .  

So if we are to find the length and it gives us the information that the length is 3 yards more that the width then we will add 3 to the width to equal the length.

L= 12 +3

L = 15

The length of the rectangular playground is 15 yards. The correct answer would be an option (A).

The area of a rectangle is defined as the product of the length and width.

The area of a rectangle = L × W

Where W is the width of the rectangle and L is the length of the rectangle

Since the length is 3 more than the width

So, we will represent it by the equation L = W+3  ...(i)

A rectangular playground has an area of 180 square yards

So, L × W = 180

Substitute the value of equation (i), and we get

W(W+3) = 180

W² + 3W = 180

W² + 3W -180 = 0  ...(i)

Solving the above quadratic equation, we get the values of W :

W = 12 and W = -15

Take positive value because dimensions can't be negative.

Substitute the value of W = 12 in equation (i), and we get

L = 12 + 3 = 15

Therefore, the length of the playground is 15 yards.

Answer:

TW = 3.2 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

In the picture attached,

Triangle TWV has been given with angle W = 90°

By applying Sine rule in the given right triangle,

Since, Sine of an angle is the ratio of its opposite side and hypotenuse (side opposite to the right angle)

SinV = [tex]\frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}[/tex]

SinV = [tex]\frac{\text{TW}}{\text{TV}}[/tex]

Sin(32)°= [tex]\frac{\text{TW}}{6}[/tex]

TW = 6.Sin(32)°

TW = 3.1795

TW = 3.2 yd

Therefore, measure of the side TW = 3.2 yd.

Answer:

y= 0.15x - 1, y = x, y = x + 100, y = 15x + 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the slope of a line is less than 1 (if the slope is a decimal), the slope will not be steep. But when the slope is more than 1, the slope will be steeper than the average.

According to that rule, the steepest will be y = 15x + 5.

The next steepest equations will be y = x and y = x + 100 (they are both at the same degree of steepness; the intercept does not impact the steepness of the line).

The least steepest will bey = 0.15x - 1.

So, the order, from least steep to most steep, will be y= 0.15x - 1, y = x, y = x + 100, y = 15x + 5.

Answer: 16 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that in triangle ABC, m∠C=90,

it means m∠A +∠B= m∠BAC + m∠ABC = 90

m∠ABC = 90 - m∠BAC

Also given that;m∠BAC = 2m∠ABC

So,

m∠BAC = 2(90 - m∠BAC) = 180 - 2m∠BAC

m∠BAC +2m∠BAC = 180

3m∠BAC = 180

m∠BAC=180/3 = 60

m∠ABC = 60/3 = 30

thus,ΔBAC is a 30-60-90 right triangle, in which the ratio of the side lengths is 1:√3:2AC:BC=1:√3, AC=BC/√3BC=24, So,

AC=24/√3=8√3AL bisects angle A =>m∠LAC=30

ΔALC is a 30-60-90 right triangle, in which the ratio of the side lengths is 1:√3:2AC:AL=√3:2AL=2AC/√3=2x8√3/√3=16
