A recursive rule for a geometric sequence is
a1 = 9; an = 2/3 (an−1)

What is the iterative rule for this sequence?

A.) an = 9 • (2/3)^n
B.) an = 2/3 • 9^n
C.) an = 9 • (2/3)^n-1

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C. [tex]a_n=(9)(\frac{2}{3})^{n-1}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Iterative geometric sequence:

[tex]a_n=a_1x^{n-1}[/tex]

Recursive geometric sequence:

[tex]a_n=xa_{n-1}[/tex]

The equations are very similar and you only really need to rearrange it. The factor (2/3) and the first term (9) are given, so you can write the iterative equation:

[tex]a_n=(9)(\frac{2}{3})^{n-1}[/tex]

And so the answer is C.

Answers

a) Since the corresponding y-value is -0.6, hence the point (-0.8, -0.6) is a solution to the system of  equations

b) since  the corresponding x-value is not 1/3, hence the point (1/3, 2) is not a solution to the system of  equation

In order to show if the given point corresponds to the given function, we will have to substitute the value of x into the function to see if we will have its corresponding y-value

For the point (-0.8, -0.6), substitute x = -0.8 into both functions as shown:

f(x)  = 2x + 1

f(-0.8) = 2(-0.8) + 1

f(-0.8) = -1.6  + 1

f(-0.8) = -0.6

Simiarly;

y = -3(-0.8)- 3

y = 2.4 - 3

y = -0.6

Since the corresponding y-value is -0.6, hence the point (-0.8, -0.6) is a solution to the system of  equations

For the point (1/3, 2), substitute x = 1/3 into both functions as shown:

x = (y+2)/2

x = (2+2)/2

x = 4/2

x = 2

Simiarly;

x + 2 = 3

x = 3-2

x = 1

Since the corresponding x-value is not 1/3, hence the point (1/3, 2) is not a solution to the system of  equations

The probability that a randomly selected girl does not have brown hair is 34.54%.

Given that in a certain school, 45% of the students are boys, and 80% of the boys have brown hair while 50% of those with brown hair are girls, to determine what is the probability that a randomly selected girl does NOT have brown hair, the following calculation must be performed:

45 x 0.80 = 36% of the school are brown hair boys 36% of the school are brown hair girls 55 - 36 = 55 = 100 19 = X 19 x 100/55 = X 1900/55 = X 34.54 = X

Therefore, the probability that a randomly selected girl does not have brown hair is 34.54%.

tickets at a particular movie theater have different rates for adults and children. On tuesday the theater sold 8 adult tickets and 9 tickets for 174. the next day the theater sold 5 adult tickets and 7 children tickets for 117. What is the price for the adult ticket and the price for the child ticket

Answers

Answer:

Adult = $15 pp

Child =  46 pp

Step-by-step explanation:

  Let A and C be the price of Adult and Child's tickets, respectively.

 We can set up equations for each of the two days, Tuesday and Wednesday.  Each equation adds the totals paid for the two ticket levels and set it equal to the total income for that day:

Tues:  8A+9C=174

Wed:   5A+7C=117

We have two equations and two unknowns.  Let's manipulate one of the equations in a way that allows us to eliminate one of the two variables, A or C.  [One can also solve either equation to isolate one of the variables, and then use that in the second equation.]

I chose to multiply the first by 5 and the second by -8, in order to make the coefficients for A the same value in both equations, but opposite in sign:

Tues:   40A+45C   =  870   [Multiply by 5]

Wed:  -40A -56C = -936     [Multiply by -8]

                      -11C = -66      [Add the two equations]

C = 6                                    [Ta Da.  Now use this price for a child's ticket in either of the original equations to find the cost of an adult ticket.]

8A+9C=174

8A+9*(6)=174

8A+54=174

8A   = 120

A  =  15

====

Use these two prices in the original equations to see if they indeed add up to the correct totals for each day.

                                                       Total Sales

Price     Tues     Wed          Tues  Wed    

A   15           8          5              120    75

C    6           9            7               54    42

If 0 < x < π/2, then both sin(x) and cos(x) are positive.

From the Pythagorean identity, we then have

cos²(x) + sin²(x) = 1

⇒   cos(x) = + √(1 - sin²(x))   and   sin(x) = + √(1 - cos²(x))

Then

√(1 - cos²(x))/sin(x) = sin(x)/sin(x) = 1

and

√(1 - sin²(x))/cos(x) = cos(x)/cos(x) = 1

so that the overall expression reduces to

1 - 1 = 0

Use the linear combination method to solve the system of equations. â€"2. 1x 4y = 5. 3 2. 1x â€" 5. 5y = â€"0. 2 What is the solution to the system? ( , ).

Answers

The solution to the systems of equations is (7, 3)

Given the systems of equations expressed as:

-x + 4y = 5 ....................1

x - 5y = -2 ...................... 2

Add both equations to have:

-x+x + 4y - 5y = 5 - 2

4y-5y = -3

-y = -3

y = 3

Substitute y = 3 into equation 1:

-x + 4(3) = 5

-x + 12 = 5

-x = 5 - 12

-x = -7

x = 7

Hence the solution to the systems of equations is (7, 3)

The cost of a bottle of milk is (2w – 11) cents.
A certain number of bottles of water costs $4.80.
The same number of bottles of milk costs $7.80 .
Find the value of w

Answers

Answer:

w= 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of water= (w -1)¢

Cost of milk= (2w -11)¢

Let the certain number be x.

x(w -1)¢= 480¢ -----(1)

x(2w -11)¢= 780¢ -----(2)

From (1):

wx -x= 480 -----(3)

From (2):

2wx -11x= 780 -----(4)

(3) ×2:

2wx -2x= 960 -----(5)

(5) -(4):

(2wx -2x) -(2wx -11x)= 960 -780

Expand:

2wx -2x -2wx +11x= 180

9x= 180

Divide both sides by 9:

x= 180 ÷9

x= 20

Substitute x= 20 into (3):

w(20) -20= 480

20w -20= 480

20w= 480 +20

20w= 500

w= 500 ÷20

Graph the line y= 2/3x +1

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the linear equation, y = ⅔x + 1, where the slope, m = ⅔, and the y-intercept, (0, 1) where b = 1.

Start at the y-intercept:

In order to graph the given linear equation, start by plotting the coordinates of the y-intercept, (0, 1). As we know, the y-intercept is the point on the graph where it crosses the y-axis. It coordinates are (0, b), for which the value of b represents the value of the y-intercept in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b.

Plot other points using the slope:

From the y-intercept, (0, 1), we must use the slope, m =  ⅔ (rise 2, run 3) to plot the other points on the graph. Continue the process until you have sufficient amount of plotted points on the graph that you could connect a line with.

Attached is a screenshot of the graphed linear equestion, which demonstrates how I plotted the other points on the graph using the "rise/run" techniques" discussed in the previous section of this post.    

[tex]\huge\boxed{Hello,\:hope\:you\:are\:having\:a\:wonderful\:day.}[/tex]We are asked to graph the line y=2/3x+1.

2/3 is the slope of this line (Rise/Run)

The rise is how many units we move up; the run is how many units we move left or right.

For this line, 2 is the rise, and 3 is the run.

Now, 1 is the y-intercept. (where the graph touches the y-axis)

First, plot this point: (0,1)

Then, move 2 units up and 3 to the left (Up 2, over 3, up 2, over 3)

When you have a line, take a ruler and connect these points, and you will have the graph of y=2/3x+1.

Answers

Scatter plots are used to relate variables using scattered dots.

The best prediction for the number of baskets made in 16 minutes is (c) 14 baskets

From the graph, we can see that the number of baskets made in 14 minutes is 12.

Also, from the graph; as the minutes increases, the number of baskets either remain the same or increases.

This means that, for 16 minutes, the number of baskets would either be 12 (same as 14 minutes) or greater.

The closest to 12 baskets in the option is 14.

Hence, the best prediction for the number of baskets made in 16 minutes is (c) 14 baskets

The bar graph represents the value of Profit (X) for the different probabilities of stocks x and y.

It can be drawn as follows.

Let x and y denote the two stocks .

The probability of success of x is p=50%= 50/100=1/2 = 0.5

The probability of failure of x is q= 50%= 50/100= 1/2= 0.5

Similarly

The probability of success of y is p=50%= 50/100=1/2 = 0.5

The probability of failure of y is q= 50%= 50/100= 1/2= 0.5

Then their joint distribution can be calculated from the following table.

        x              0.5               0.5               h(y)

g(x)                 0.5                 0.5               1.0
