Step-by-step explanation:

al nth term:

numerator:

[tex] = {n}^{2} [/tex]

denominator:

[tex] = n + 1[/tex]

so nth term :

[tex] = \frac{ {n}^{2} }{n + 1} [/tex]

b). 1; 11; 27; 49

first difference: 10; 16; 22

second difference :6

formula for 1st difference:3a+b

formula for 2nd difference:2a

Therefore:

2a=6

a=3

3a+b=10

sub in a

3(3)+b=10

9+b=10

b=1

sub into quadratic formula

[tex] {an}^{2} + bn + c[/tex]

[tex](3) {(1)}^{2} + (1)(1) + c = 1[/tex]

[tex]3(1) + 1 + c = 1[/tex]

[tex]3 + 1 + c = 1[/tex]

[tex]4 + c = 1[/tex]

[tex]c = - 3[/tex]

So Tn:

[tex]3 {n }^{2} + 1n - 3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

it is clearly a sequence of the square numbers over the numbers+1.

1/2 = 1²/(1+1)

4/3 = 2²/(2+1)

9/4 = 3²/(3+1)

16/5 = 4²/(4+1)

so, the nth term would be

n²/(n+1)

b)

an² + bn + c creates the sequence with increasing n (n = 1, 2, 3, 4, ...)

since for sequence the first starting value is often not generated by the general expression, we have to focus on n = 2, n = 3 and n = 4, and with that we get 3 equations with 3 variables (a, b, c) that we can solve :

n = 2

a×2² + b×2 + c = 11 = 4a + 2b + c

n = 3

a×3² + b×3 + c = 27 = 9a + 3b + c

n = 4

a×4² + b×4 + c = 49 = 16a + 4b + c

the first equation gives us

c = 11 - 4a - 2b

when we use this in the second equation, we get

27 = 9a + 3b + 11 - 4a - 2b = 5a + b + 11

b = 16 - 5a

now we use both of that in the third equation :

49 = 16a +4(16 - 5a) + 11 - 4a - 2(16 - 5a) =

= 16a + 64 - 20a + 11 - 4a - 32 + 10a =

= 2a + 43

2a = 6

a = 3

b = 16 - 5a = 16 - 5×3 = 16 - 15 = 1

c = 11 - 4a - 2b = 11 - 4×3 - 2×1 = 11 - 12 - 2 = -3

Answers

Answer:

p = - [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] , p = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the discriminant to solve for p

Δ = b² - 4ac

The condition on the discriminant for 2 eeal and equal roots is

b² - 4ac = 0

Given

p²x² - (p + 2)x + 1 = 0

with a = p² , b = - (p + 2) , c = 1 , then

(- (p + 2) )² - 4p² = 0

(p + 2)² - 4p² = 0

p² + 4p + 4 - 4p² = 0

- 3p² + 4p + 4 = 0 ( multiply through by - 1 )

3p² - 4p - 4 = 0 ← in standard form

(3p + 2)(p - 2) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for p

3p + 2 = 0 ⇒ 3p = - 2 ⇒ p = - [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

p - 2 = 0 ⇒ p = 2

The half life of a radioactive substance is 10 years. If 64 grams are placed in a
container, how much will remain after 50 years?

Answers

Answer:

2 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

50 years is 5 half lives as 1 half life is 10 years.

64 divide 2 = 32-1 half life

32 divide 2 =16-2nd half life

16 divide 2 = 8-3rd half life

8 divide 2 = 4-4th half life

4 divide 2 = 2-5th half life

This means we will have 2 grams left of the radioactive substance after 50 years.

_________________

For this problem I will show you 2 methods.

[tex]{\huge{\boxed{\mathbb{METHOD\:ONE}}[/tex]

Cross multiplication, cross multiplication involves algebra to use.

Let x be our answer for this problem. Here is our it would look like

[tex]\frac{6}{144}=\frac{15}{x}[/tex], now we will cross multiply, here is what it'd look like now.

[tex]6x=2160[/tex], then do simple algebra and divide both sides by 6. and then we get [tex]x=360[/tex] miles in 15 hours.

_________________

[tex]{\huge{\boxed{\mathbb{METHOD\:TWO}}[/tex]

For method two we can look for the unit rate. Also known as our rate for one.

divide 144 by 6 and we get 24, then multiply it by 15 and we get 360.

write the equation of the line that is parallel to y=4x+12 through the point (2,3).​

Answers

Answer:

y = 4x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = 4x + 12 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 4

Parallel lines have equal slopes , then

y = 4x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (2, 3 ) into the partial equation

3 = 8 + c ⇒ c = 3 - 8 = - 5

y = 4x - 5 ← equation of parallel line
