formula representing the ab and nth term of the sequence.

A)4n-1
B)4n
C)4n+1
D) 42n

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a(n) = 4⁽ⁿ⁻¹⁾ is the answer :))))) goodluck!

Step-by-step explanation:

a₁ = 1 = 4⁰

a₂ = 4 =4¹

a₃ =4 x 4=4²

a₄ =4 x 4² =4³

a(n) = 4⁽ⁿ⁻¹⁾

Rayna is building a tapered staircase using wooden boards. The bottom stair is 3 1/2 ft wide, and the top stair is 2 1/6 ft wide. Each stair is 4 in. Shorter than the one below. What is the total length of wooden boards rayna needs for the stair tops, in feet? Enter your answer as an improper fraction.

Answers

   Sum of an arithmetic sequence is defined by the formula,

[tex]T_n=\frac{n}{2}[2a+(n-1)d][/tex]

Total length of the wooden boards will be [tex]14\frac{1}{6}[/tex] feet.

    It's given in the question,

Width of the bottom stair = [tex]3\frac{1}{2}[/tex] feetWidth of the top stair = [tex]2\frac{1}{6}[/tex] feetEach stair is 4 inch shorter than the one below.

Since, 1 inch = [tex]\frac{1}{12}[/tex] feet

Therefore, [tex]4[/tex] inch = [tex]\frac{4}{12}[/tex] feet

                             = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] feet

So, each stair is [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] feet shorter than one below.

Now the sequence formed will be,

[tex]\frac{7}{2},[\frac{7}{2}-\frac{1}{3}],[\frac{7}{2}-\frac{2}{3}],......\frac{13}{6}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{21}{6},\frac{19}{6},\frac{17}{6}....\frac{13}{6}[/tex]

It's an Arithmetic sequence with common difference 'd' = [tex]-\frac{1}{3}[/tex] and first term 'a' = [tex]\frac{7}{2}[/tex] and nth term [tex]T_n=\frac{13}{6}[/tex]

If there are 'n' stairs, expression for the for the top stair of the arithmetic sequence will be,

[tex]T_n=a+(n-1)d[/tex]

[tex]\frac{13}{6}=\frac{21}{6}+(n-1)(-\frac{1}{3})[/tex]

[tex]\frac{13}{6}-\frac{21}{6}=-(n-1)\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{8}{6}=(n-1)\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{4}{3}=(n-1)\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

[tex](n-1)=4[/tex]

[tex]n=5[/tex]

Therefore, there are 5 stairs.

Now total length of the wooden boards = Sum of 5 terms of the sequence

                                                                    = [tex]\frac{n}{2}[2a+(n-1)(d)][/tex]

                                                                    = [tex]\frac{5}{2}[2(\frac{21}{6})+(5-1)(-\frac{1}{3})][/tex]

                                                                    = [tex]\frac{5}{2}[\frac{21}{3}-\frac{4}{3}][/tex]

                                                                    = [tex]\frac{17}{3}\times \frac{5}{2}[/tex]

                                                                    = [tex]\frac{85}{6}[/tex]

                                                                    = [tex]14\frac{1}{6}[/tex] ft

    Therefore, total length of the wooden boards will be [tex]14\frac{1}{6}[/tex] ft.

Answers

Answer:

180-85=95

180-95=85

5x=85

x=17

For given figure, x = 17° and y = 95°

What is an equation?

"It is a mathematical statement which consists of equal symbol between two mathematical expressions."

For given question,

We have been given ∠1 = 5x°, the measure of ∠2 = y°, and the measure of ∠3 = 85°

we know, the sum of all the angles on one side of a straight line is always 180°

So, we get two equations.

∠1 + ∠2 = 180°                   .....................(i)

and ∠2 + ∠3 = 180°            .....................(ii)

First we solve equation (ii) to find the value of ∠2

⇒ ∠2 + ∠3 = 180°

⇒ y + 85° = 180°

y = 95°

Now substitute this value of ∠2 in equation (i)

⇒ ∠1 + ∠2 = 180°

⇒ 5x° + y° = 180°

⇒ 5x° + 95° = 180°

⇒ 5x° = 85°

x = 17°

Therefore,  x = 17° and y = 95°

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula is the same almost as the previous question you posted.

You want to find the major arc. That's almost the whole circle. If it was the whole circle,  the formula would be 2 * pi * r

But we only want a part of it. Just how big is the angle we use in the formula?

A circle has 360 degrees to go around it. We've cut out a slice of it that is 30 degrees.

The remaining part is 360 - 30 = 330

Arc length = angle / 360  * 2 * pi * r

r = 3 m

Arc length = 330 / 360 * 2 * pi * 3

Arc length = 0.9167 * 6 * 3.14

Arc length = 17.27

On a coordinate grid. AB has endpoints A(4,– 2) and B(x, y). The midpoint of AB (-3,1). What is the x-coordinate of point B?

Answers

Answer: -10

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for mid point is :

Mid point = ( (x1+x2)÷2 , (y1+y2)÷2) )

So, X1 = 4

X2 = X

Y1 = -2

Y2 = y

Now, use the formula

(-3,1) = ( (4 + x)÷2 , (-2+y)÷2) )

Now divide the sides for yourself to solve for midpoint for X and y separately

-3 = (4+x) ÷ 2 and 1 = (-2+y) ÷ 2

This is because 3 is the x coordinate of the mid point of A and B , so we equate it to (4+x) ÷ 2 because this expression basically gives us the x coordinate of mid point of A and B. So we already have the x coordinate of midpoint which is -3 so we can use this to find X coordinate of point B

So then we solve it by multiplying the 2 with -3 which gives -6

-6 = 4+X

Shift 4 on the other side and it will become negative 4

-6-4 = X

X = -10

Answers

  If a function 'f' is translated by 'k' units down, image function 'g' will be,

If the function 'g' gets shrink by a factor 'm', the new function 'k' will be,

k(x) = [tex]m[g(x)][/tex]  where, 0 < m < 1

  Following these rules image of the function 'f' given in the question will be g(x) = [tex]\frac{1}{3}x-1[/tex]

Function given in the question is,

f(x) = x

  If the function f is translated by 3 units down, image function 'h' will be,

h(x) = f(x) -3

h(x) = x - 3

  If the image function is vertically shrink by a factor of k, equation of the image function will be,

g(x) = [tex]k[h(x)-3][/tex]

where, k = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex],

g(x) = [tex]\frac{1}{3}}(x-3)[/tex]

Hi there!

We want to find the distance between the points (2, -2) and (-4, 7).

To do that, we can use the distance formula.

The distance formula is given as [tex]\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex], where [tex](x_1, y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2, y_2)[/tex] are points

[tex]x_1=2\\y_1=-2\\x_2=-4\\y_2=7[/tex]

Now substitute those values into the formula and solve

[tex]\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{(-4-2)^2+(7--2)^2}[/tex]
