Consider The First 2 Terms Of The Sequence 28, 14, ...Determine Whether The Sequence Is Arithmetic Or

Answers

Answer 1

1. The given sequence 28, 14 ..... will be either arithmetic or geometric sequence.

2. The common difference of the sequence 28, 14 ..... will be;

d = - 14

And, Next three terms of the arithmetic sequence are;

0, -14, -28

What is Geometric sequence?

An sequence has the ratio of every two successive terms is a constant, is called a Geometric sequence.

Given that;

The first two terms of the sequence,

28, 14 .....

Now,

Let the sequence is in arithmetic sequence, then;

28, 14 ......

The common difference of the sequence is;

d = 14 - 28

d = - 14

And, Let the sequence is in geometric sequence, then;

28, 14 ......

The common difference of the sequence is;

d = 14/28

d = 1/2

Thus, The given sequence 28, 14 ..... will be either arithmetic or geometric sequence.

2. If the given sequence is in arithmetic sequence, then;

28, 14 ......

The common difference of the sequence is;

d = 14 - 28

d = - 14

And, The nth term of the arithmetic sequence is;

⇒ [tex]a_{n} = a + (n - 1)d[/tex]

Where, 'a' is the first term and 'd' is the common difference of the sequence.

So, The 3rd term of the arithmetic sequence is,

⇒ [tex]a_{n} = a + (n - 1)d[/tex]

[tex]a_{3} = 28 + (3-1)(-14)\\ \\a_{3} = 28 - 2 * 14\\\\a_{3} = 28 - 28\\\\a_{3} = 0[/tex]

And, The 4th term of the arithmetic sequence is,

[tex]a_{4} = 28 + (4-1)(-14)\\ \\a_{4} = 28 - 3 * 14\\\\a_{4} = 28 - 42\\\\a_{4} = -14[/tex]

And,  The 5th term of the arithmetic sequence is,

[tex]a_{5} = 28 + (5-1)(-14)\\ \\a_{5} = 28 - 4 * 14\\\\a_{4} = 28 - 56\\\\a_{5} = -28[/tex]

Therefore,  Next three terms of the arithmetic sequence are;

⇒ 0, -14, -28

Thus,

1. The given sequence 28, 14 ..... will be either arithmetic or geometric sequence.

2. The common difference of the sequence 28, 14 ..... will be;

d = - 14

And, Next three terms of the arithmetic sequence are;

0, -14, -28

Step-by-step explanation:

2. Each year a certain amount of money is deposited in an account which pays an
annual interest rate of r so that at the end of each year the balance in the account is
multiplied by a growth factor of x = 1+r. $500 is deposited at the start of the first
year, an additional $200 is deposited at the start of the next year, and $600 at the
start of the following year.
a. Write an expression for the value of the account at the end of three years in
terms of the growth factor x.
b. What is the amount (to the nearest cent) in the account at the end of three
years if the interest rate is 2%?
3. Consider the polynomial function p given by p(x) = 5x³ + 8x²-3x + 1. Evaluate the

Answers

Answer:

  2a.  ((500x +200)x +600)x

  2b.  $1350.68

  3.  -1

Step-by-step explanation:

2. You want to know the balance in an account at the end of 3 years with deposits at the beginning of successive years being $500, $200, and $600, and with deposits having an annual growth factor of x. You want (a) an expression for the balance in terms of x, and (b) the balance when x=1+2%.

3. You want the value of p(-2) for p(x) = 5x³ +8x² -3x + 1.

2. Account Balancea. Expression

$500 is deposited at the beginning of the first year. The problem statement tells us that this has been multiplied by growth factor x by the end of the year, so the balance at that point is 500x.

At the beginning of the second year, $200 is added to the account, and the entire amount is multiplied by the growth factor for the year. That makes the balance at the end of the second year be ...

  (500x +200)x

Then $600 is added, and again the account grows by a factor of x. At the end of the third year, the balance is ...

  balance = ((500x +200)x +600)x

b. Balance for r=2%

The growth factor is given as x = 1 +r. When r = 2%, this becomes x = 1.02. Then the balance at the end of year 3 is ...

  ((500·1.02 +200)·1.02 +600)·1.02 = 1350.68

The amount in the account at the end of three years is $1350.68.

__

3. Polynomial value

The value of p(x) = 5x³ +8x² -3x +1 for x=-2 is found by substituting -2 where x is found. Evaluation can be easier by rewriting the polynomial to Horner form:

  p(x) = ((5x +8)x -3)x +1

  p(-2) = ((5(-2) +8)(-2) -3)(-2) +1 = ((-2)(-2) -3)(-2) +1 = (1)(-2) +1 = -1

The value of the function for x=-2 is -1.

__

Additional comment

You will note that the expression in problem 2 is also written in Horner form. If it were expanded, it would be 500x³ +200x² +600x. Evaluation takes fewer steps when Horner form is used.

Janell is standing on a set of bleacher and throws a ball in the air at an initial velocity of 35 ft/s. The height of the ball, h, at t seconds is modeled by the equation h=-16t^2+35t+6. How many seconds will it take the ball to reach the ground?

Answers

The time taken by the ball to reach the ground is 0.067 seconds

Given,

The initial velocity of the ball (speed) = 35 feet/second

The height of the ball (distance), h = -16t² + 35t + 6

We have to find the time, (t in seconds) taken by the ball to reach the ground.

Speed = distance/time

So, Time = distance/speed

Here,

Time = (-16t² + 35t + 6) / 35

We have to solve the equation first.

-16t² + 35t + 6 = 0 is in quadratic form. So, we can solve this by using quadratic formula.

Quadratic formula = [tex]\frac{-b(+-)\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}[/tex]

Here,

a = -16, b = 35, c = 6

Now,

[tex]\frac{-b(+-)\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{-35(+-)\sqrt{35^{2}-4(-16)(6) } }{2(-16)}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{-35(+-)\sqrt{1225 +384} }{-32}[/tex]

= (-35±√1609) / -32

= (-35±40.11) / -32

Now,

Solve for:

(-35 + 40.11) / -32 = 5.11/-32 = -0.15

Solve for

(-35 - 40.11) / -32 = -75.11 / -32 = 2.35

Lets take the height as 2.35 feet.

Now,

Time = distance/speed

Time = 2.35/35 = 0.067

Therefore, the time taken by the ball to reach the ground is 0.067 seconds.

the average life of a certain type of small motor is 10 years with a standard deviation of 2 years. the manufacturer replaces free of charge any motor that fails during a warranty period. if she is willing to replace only 3% of the motors that fail, how long should should the warranty period last? assume that the lifetime of a motor follows a normal distribution.

Answers

using the normal distribution, the warranty period of motor last at 6.24 years.

According to given question , the average life of motor = 10 years and standard deviations = 2 years .

let X be the time period in which the warranty period of motor last . X ~ N( μ, σ²) where u is mean and s is standard deviations. X ~ N( 10, 2²) ⁼ N(μ, σ²)

it is given that only 3% number of motors are replaced and 3% = 0.03

Using normal distribution , P( X≤ x)= P(( X - μ )/ σ ≤ (x- μ)/σ ) = P ( Z ≤ (x- μ ) / σ ) =0.03

Z = (X- μ) / σ => X = Z (σ) + μ

p (Z ≤ -1.88) = 0.03 so, Z-value is - 1.88..

put all the value of variables in above formula we get , -1.88 ( 2) + 10 = X => X = - 3.76 + 10

=> X = 6.24

Thus , the motor's warranty period lasted about 6.24 years.

For each ordered pair, determine whether it is a solution to 5x + 2y = -1. (x, y) (1, − 3) (2,8) (-4, -6) (-3,7) what is the soulsion

Answers

The following ordered pairs are the solutions to 5x+2y=-1 :

(1,-3) and (-3,7)

Given we have the ordered pairs and the equation.

To find out whether the ordered pair is a solution or not, we just need to replace the x and y values from the ordered pair (x,y) and check if both the sides equate.

a. (1,-3)

5x+2y=-1

5(1)+2(-3) = -1

consider L.H.S

5-6

= -1

Therefore, L.H.S = R.H.S

hence the ordered pair (1,-3) is a solution to 5x+2y=-1.

b. (2,8)

5x+2y=-1

5(2)+2(8) = -1

consider L.H.S

10+16

= 16

Therefore, L.H.S ≠ R.H.S

hence the ordered pair (2,8) is not a solution to 5x+2y=-1.

c. (-4,-6)

5x+2y=-1

5(-4)+2(-6) = -1

consider L.H.S

-20-12

= -32

Therefore, L.H.S ≠ R.H.S

hence the ordered pair (-4,-6) is not a solution to 5x+2y=-1.

d. (-3,7)

5x+2y=-1

5(-3)+2(7) = -1

consider L.H.S

-15+14

= -1

Therefore, L.H.S = R.H.S

hence the ordered pair (2,8) is a solution to 5x+2y=-1.

Therefore the ordered pairs which are solutions to 5x+2y=-1 are:

(1,-3) and (-3,7)
