Hello, would be very nice if someone could help me ! :)

A finite geometric series is the sum of a sequence of numbers. Take the sequence
1, 2, 4, 8, ..., for example. Notice that each number is twice the value of the
previous number. So, a number in the sequence can be represented by the
function f(n) = 2^n-1. One way to write the sum of the sequence through the 5th
number in the sequence is ∑^5 n-1 2^n-1.
This equation can also be written as S5 = 2^0+2^1+ 2^2+ 2^3+ 2^4. If we multiply this equation by 2. the equation becomes 2(S5) = 2^1+ 2^2+ 2^3+ 2^4+ 2^5

What happens if you subtract the two equations and solve for S5? Can you use this information to come up with a way to find any geometric series Sn in the
form ∑^a n-1 b^n-1 ?

The equation that represents the function is [tex]y = 2(\frac 12)^x[/tex]  

The graph is an exponential function, and it passes through the points:

[tex](x,y) = (1,1)\ (0,2)[/tex]

An exponential function is represented with:

[tex]y = ab^x[/tex]

At (0,2), we have:

[tex]ab^0 = 2[/tex]

This gives

[tex]a(1) = 2[/tex]

[tex]a = 2[/tex]

At (1,1), we have:

[tex]ab^1 = 1[/tex]

[tex]ab = 1[/tex]

Substitute 2 for (a)

[tex]2b = 1[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2

[tex]b = \frac 12[/tex]

Substitute values for a and b in [tex]y = ab^x[/tex]

[tex]y = 2(\frac 12)^x[/tex]

Hence, the equation that represents the function is [tex]y = 2(\frac 12)^x[/tex]

Assume running consumes 93 calories per mile. If you run 8 - minute miles, what is your average power output, in watts?

Answers

774 watts so what he said is right

Average power output, in watts = 0.8103 watts

What is average power?

The average power represents the constant energy that has been used throughout the time of the journey at a constant rate.

It can be expressed by the following relation:

P=E/T

Given,

Energy consumed per mile = 93 calories

Time taken to cover 1 mile = 8 minutes

Energy consumed per minute = 93/8 calories

Average power = 93/8 = 11.625 calorie per minute

1 calorie per minute = 0.0697 watt

Average power output in watts = 11.625 × 0.0697

                                                    = 0.8103 watt

Hence, 0.8103 watt is the average power output in watt.

==========================================================

Explanation:

We plug t = 220 into the given function. The 220 is from 2020-1800 = 220, i.e. we have a span of 220 years from 1800 to 2020.

[tex]P(t) = \frac{19.71}{1+61.22e^{-0.03513t}}\\\\P(220) = \frac{19.71}{1+61.22e^{-0.03513*220}}\\\\P(220) = \frac{19.71}{1+61.22e^{-7.7286}}\\\\P(220) \approx \frac{19.71}{1+61.22*0.00044005976972}\\\\P(220) \approx \frac{19.71}{1+0.02694045910226}\\\\P(220) \approx \frac{19.71}{1.02694045910226}\\\\P(220) \approx 19.192933558417\\\\P(220) \approx \boldsymbol{19.193}[/tex]

This indicates that the population of New York state in 2020 is roughly 19.193 million.

This converts to 19,193,000 which is 19 million, 193 thousand.

Answers

Using the exponential function, it is found that:

One week from today, the stock is predicted to close at $65,734.37.One month from today, the stock is predicted to close at $66,327.75.One year from today, the stock is predicted to close at $76,584.35.

The exponential function is:

[tex]y(x) = 30078(1.003)^x[/tex]

x  represents the number of weeks since the first data point, so the value of x today would be 260.

Hence, considering today as an starting point, the function is:

[tex]y(x) = 30078(1.003)^{x + 260}[/tex]

One week from now, we have y(1), hence:

[tex]y(1) = 30078(1.003)^{1 + 260} = 65734.37[/tex]

One week from today, the stock is predicted to close at $65,734.37.

One month from now, we have y(4), hence:

[tex]y(4) = 30078(1.003)^{4 + 260} = 66327.75[/tex]

One month from today, the stock is predicted to close at $66,327.75.

One year from now, we have y(52), hence:

[tex]y(52) = 30078(1.003)^{52 + 260} = 76584.35[/tex]

One year from today, the stock is predicted to close at $76,584.35.
