Terms of geometric sequence are found by the formula T n = ar n - 1. If a = 3 and r = 2, find the first 4 terms of the sequence.

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

 3, 6, 12, 24

Step-by-step explanation:

It helps if the formula is properly written.

 Tn = a·r^(n-1)

Fill in the given values for a, r, and use n = 1 to 4.

 T1 = 3·2^(1-1) = 3

 T2 = 3·2^(2-1) = 6

 T3 = 3·2^(3 -1) = 12

 T4 = 3·2^(4 -1) = 24

__

Additional comment

The value a=3 tells you the first term is 3. The value r=2 tells you each term is 2 times the previous one. Knowing this, you can write down the sequence based on your knowledge of multiplication tables (×2). You can use the formula as we did above, but it isn't necessary.

What constant acceleration is required to increase the speed of a car from 30 miyh to 50 miyh in 5 seconds?

Answers

Answer:

The acceleration is 1.8 m/s^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

initial velocity, u = 30 mph = 13.4 m/s

Final velocity, v = 50 mph = 22.4 m/s

time, t = 5 s

Let the acceleration is a.

Use first equation of motion

v = u + at

22.4 = 13.4 + 5 a

Answers

Answer:

z(max) = 16

z(min) = -24

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - y = 12  multiply by 2

4x - 2y = 24  (1)

4x + 2y = 0  add equations

8x = 24

x = 3

4(3) + 2y = 0

y = -6

so (3, -6) is a common point on these two lines

z = 2(3) + 5(-6) = -24

4x - 2y = 24   (1)

x + 2y = 6   add equations

      5x = 30

        x = 6

6 + 2y = 6

         y = 0

so (6, 0) is a common point on these two lines

z = 2(6) + 5(0) = 12

4x + 2y = 0    multiply by -1

-4x - 2y = 0

  x + 2y = 6  add equations

       -3x = 6

         x = -2

-2 + 2y = 6

         y = 4

so (-2, 4) is a common point on these two lines

z = 2(-2) + 5(4) = 16

what is the value of f(3) in the function below​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is  :  

Here , x= independent variable where we place the input value and f(x) = dependent variable where we get the output value.

Now , when we put x= 3 , we get

That means , the value of f(3) in the given function is 8.

Hence, the correct answer is B=8.

Given that x= 3, all u need to do is plug in 3 in place of x. So that would give us 2 to the power 3 or
2*2*2=8
8 is the answer

The ratio of the number of boys to that of girls in a school is 4:3. If the number of girls in the school is 162, find the number of boys in it. Then find the ratio of the number of girls to the total number of students in the school.​

Answers

Answer:

total number of boys in skool is 216

And

ratio of girls to boys is a 3:4

Step-by-step explanation:

let total no. of boys be X

ACCORDING TO QUESTION

ratio of boys to girls = 4:3

total number of girls = 162

now

4/3=X/162

or, 4×162= 3x

or, 4×162/3= X

hence

X = 216

therefore total number of boys is 216

and

ratio of girls to boys is =162/216

=3/4

a test for diabetes results in a positive test in 95% of the cases where the disease is present and a negative test in 07% of the cases where the disease is absent. if 10% of the population has diabetes, what is the probability that a randomly selected person has diabetes, given that his test is positive

Answers

Answer:

0.9378 = 93.78% probability that a randomly selected person has diabetes, given that his test is positive.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

Event A: Positive test

Event B: Person has diabetes.

Probability of a positive test:

0.95 out of 0.1(person has diabetes).

0.007 out of 1 - 0.1 = 0.9(person does not has diabetes). So

[tex]P(A) = 0.95*0.1 + 0.007*0.9 = 0.1013[/tex]

Probability of a positive test and having diabetes:

0.95 out of 0.1. So

[tex]P(A \cap B) = 0.95*0.1 = 0.095[/tex]

What is the probability that a randomly selected person has diabetes, given that his test is positive?

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.095}{0.1013} = 0.9378[/tex]

0.9378 = 93.78% probability that a randomly selected person has diabetes, given that his test is positive.

Given :

Test of p=0.91 vs p≠0.91

The use if not equal to ≠ sign in the null means we have a tow tailed test, which means a difference exists in the proportion which could be lesser or greater than the stated population proportion.

The test statistic :

A parallelogram is made up of a rectangle with a base of 12 centimeters (cm) and a height of 5 cm, and two triangles, each with a base of 2 cm and height of 5 cm. Jeremy calculates the area of the parallelogram by multiplying the base and height of the rectangle to get 60 cm2.
Is Jeremy's answer correct? Why or why not?

Select the option that correctly answers both questions.

No, he forgot to multiply by 12 when calculating the area of the rectangle.

Yes, he correctly calculated the area of the parallelogram as b⋅h.

No, he forgot to add the area of the triangles to the area of the rectangle.

Yes, he correctly calculated the area of the parallelogram as 12bh.

Answers

No, he forgot to add the area of the triangles to the area of the rectangle.

It is said that Jeremy thought he solved for the area of the whole parallelogram correctly by multiplying the base and height of the rectangle, which is just a part of the whole parallelogram.

Jeremy’s answer is incomplete, he only calculated the area of the triangle as the answer.

This is because one way of finding an area of a parallelogram is dividing the shape into a rectangle with a triangle on each side.

The real area of the parallelogram is 70 cm^2
(with areas of each triangles added)

With that being said, the formula of a parallelogram that is said is:
A = bh
Which means a height perpendicular to the base of the whole paralleogram.

Identify the X intercept and the yIntercept of the line 4x-2y=-12

Answers

Answer:

X-intercept = -3 and y-intercept = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

We can start off by isolating the y term. To do that, we must add 2y to both sides to get

[tex]4x=2y-12[/tex]

Now, we must add 12 to both sides and the y term will be all alone on the right side:

[tex]4x+12=2y[/tex]

Now, to have only y on the right side, we must divide by 2 to get:

[tex]y=2x+6[/tex]

In slope-intercept form, b is the y-intercept, and 'b' in this equation is 6. We have our y-intercept.

To find our x-intercept, y must be equal to zero. We can plug in that value for y and solve for x:

[tex]0=2x+6[/tex]

We can start off by subtracting 6 from both sides to get:

[tex]2x=-6[/tex]

We can then divide both sides to get [tex]x=-3[/tex] when y is equal to 0. Thus, we have our x-intercept.

Answer:

y-intercept= -6

x-intercept= 3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, rearrange the equation to be in y=mx+b.

4x-2y=12

4x-12=2y

(1/2)(4x-12)=y

y=2x-6

From here, we know that the 'b' in an equation in form y=mx+b is the y-intercept, which is -6.

To find the x intercept make y=0 and solve.

You can also solve without rearranging the equation and simply making x=0 and solving to find the y-intercept. and making y=0 and solving to find the x-intercept.
