Write the explicit formula for the sequence shown below
3, -3, -9, -15

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = 9 - 6n

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a common difference d between consecutive terms, that is

d = - 3 - 3 = - 9 - (- 3) = - 15 - (- 9) = - 6

This indicates the sequence is arithmetic with explicit formula

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Here a₁ = 3 and d = - 6 , thus

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = 3 - 6(n - 1) = 3 - 6n + 6 = 9 - 6n

General Formulas and Concepts:

Pre-Algebra

Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

Equality Properties

Algebra I

Combining Like Terms

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define Equation

4x + 5 = 13x + 4 - x - 9

Step 2: Solve for x

Combine like terms:                    4x + 5 = 12x - 5Subtract 4x on both sides:          5 = 8x - 5Isolate x term:                              10 = 8xIsolate x:                                       5/4 = xRewrite:                                        x = 5/4

Step 3: Check

Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.

Substitute in x:                    4(5/4) + 5 = 13(5/4) + 4 - 5/4 - 9Multiply:                               5 + 5 = 65/4 + 4 - 5/4 - 9Add:                                     10 = 81/4 - 5/4 - 9Subtract:                              10 = 19 - 9Subtract:                              10 = 10

Here we see that 10 does indeed equal 10.

∴ x = 5/4 is the solution to the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Parkside High School was having a talent show to raise money. It was x dollars for adults and $8 for students. Stephanie's family had 4 adults and 1 student. Her family paid $48 to see the show. Write an equation for the word problem. Use the variable x and leave no spaces.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x = 10[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$x per adult

$8 per student

Population:

[tex]Students = 1[/tex]

[tex]Adults = 4[/tex]

[tex]Total = \$48[/tex]

Required

Determine the equation and solve for x

The system can be analyzed as thus:

The cost for 4 adults is: 4 * x

The cost for 1 students is: 8 * 1

Total Amount is: 48

From the analysis above, the equation is:

[tex]4 * x + 8 * 1 = 48[/tex]

[tex]4 x + 8 = 48[/tex]

Subtract 8 from both sides

[tex]4 x + 8 -8= 48 - 8[/tex]

[tex]4 x= 40[/tex]

Solve for x

[tex]x = 40/4[/tex]

[tex]x = 10[/tex]

On a bicycle trail, the city is painting arrows like the one shown below: Upper pointing arrow with height of 15 and length of 13. Rectangular base of arrow has length of 11 and height of 12. All units are in centimeters. Calculate the area of the arrow by decomposing it into rectangles and triangles.

Answers

Answer:

229.5[tex]cm^{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calculate the area of the arrow we need to calculate the area of the body of the arrow, and then the head of the arrow. The body of the arrow is a rectangle meaning that the area (Ar) can be calculated by multiplying the length by the height like so...

Ar = l * h

Ar = 11cm * 12cm

Ar = 132 [tex]cm^{2}[/tex]

Now we need to find the area of the head of the arrow, which is a triangle and therefore we can use the formula for the area of a triangle (At) which is height times base divided by 2...

At = [tex]\frac{h * b}{2}[/tex]

At = [tex]\frac{15cm * 13cm}{2}[/tex]

At = [tex]\frac{195cm^{2} }{2}[/tex]

At = 97.5[tex]cm^{2}[/tex]

Now we simply add both areas together to calculate the total area of the arrow...

132[tex]cm^{2}[/tex] + 97.5[tex]cm^{2}[/tex] = 229.5[tex]cm^{2}[/tex]

Richard and Linda enjoy visiting Hilton Head Island, South
Carolina. The distance from their home to Hilton Head is
975 mi, so the drive takes them 2 days. Richard and Linda
travel twice as far the first day as they do the second day.
How many miles do they travel each day?

Answers

Answer:

first day: 650, second day: 325

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of miles travelled on the second day and  2x the number of miles travelled on the first day. They add up to 975.

2x+x=975

3x=975

x=325

x represents the number of miles travelled on the second day so they travelled 650 miles on the first day and 325 miles on the second day.

Answer:

650 miles the first day, 325 miles the second day

Step-by-step explanation:

We can call the distance they traveled on the first day as 2x and the distance they traveled on the second day as x. The former is 2x because they traveled twice as far the first day compared to the second day. Since the total distance traveled is 975 miles, we can write the following equation to solve for x:

[tex]2x + x = 975[/tex]

[tex]3x = 975[/tex] (Simplify LHS; 2x + x = 3x)

[tex]\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{975}{3}[/tex] (Divide both sides of the equation by 3 to get rid of the coefficient on x)

[tex]x = 325[/tex] (Simplify)

Therefore, [tex]2x = 2 * x = 2 * 325 = 650[/tex] so the final answer is they traveled 650 miles the first day and 325 miles the second day. Hope this helps!

How do you get the fully simplified slope-intercept form?​

Answers

Answer:

y = 3x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form:

y = mx + b

Where:

y is the y value.

m is the slope.

x is the x value.

And b is the y-intercept.

First, you want to find your slope. To do this, you can either use the slope formula to find the slope, or just count on the picture:

m = rise/run

m = 3/1

m = 3

With the slope formula, you first need to choose two points.

I chose:

(2, -1) and (3, 2)

Slope formula:

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) {It doesn't matter which point you choose to be x2 and x1, just be consistent when you plug it into the formula}

m = (2 - (-1)) / (3 - 2)

m = 3/1

m = 3

Now that you have your slope, all you need is your y-intercept. To find your y-intercept, you can either look at the graph (again) to see where the line intersects with the y-axis, or you can solve it algebraically:

y-int = -7

To solve algebraically, choose a random point on the line and plug it into what you have for your equation so far and then solve for b.

I chose:

(2, -1)

y = 3x + b

-1 = 3(2) + b

-1 = 6 + b

-1 - 6 = b

b = -7

Now you have your final answer:

y = 3x - 7
