The sum of the first 15 terms of a geometric sequence with 7 as the first term and a common ratio of -3 is __________.

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

the formula for the sum of the first n terms of a geometric sequence is

Sn = s1(1 - r^n)/(1 - r)

with r being the common ratio and s1 is the first term.

so,

S15 = 7×(1 - (-3)¹⁵)/(1 - -3) = 7×(1 - -14,348,907)/4 =

= 7×14,348,908/4 = 7×3,587,227 = 25,110,589

The length of a rectangle is times the width. If the perimeter is 32 inches, what is the width of the rectangle

Answers

Let width be “w", length = “l" and perimeter = p

Then l = 3w-4

Perimeter = 2(w+l)

p = 2(w+3w-4) = 2w+6w-8 = 8w-8

Perimeter is 32…

8w-8 = 32

8w = 32+8

8w = 40

w = 5

l = (3×5)-4 = 11

Check… p = 2(5+11) = 2 × 16 = 32

Ans = length is 11

A strand of bacteria has a doubling time of 15 minutes. If the population starts with 10 organisms, how long would it take for the population to grow to 700 organisms?

Answers

Answer:

between 1hr 30 and 1hr 45

Step-by-step explanation:

10*2=20                                 15

20*2=40                                 30

40*2=80                                 45

80*2=160                                 60

160*2=320                                 1hr 15

320*2=640                                 1hr 30

In 90 minutes the population to grow to 700 organisms.

Given that,

A strand of bacteria has a doubling time of 15 minutes.

If the population starts with 10 organisms.

We have to determine,

How long would it take for the population to grow to 700 organisms?

According to the question,

A strand of bacteria has a doubling time of 15 minutes.

If the population starts with 10 organisms.

In 15 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 10 organisms.

[tex]\rm = 10 \times 2 = 20 \ bacteria[/tex]

In 15 minutes 20 bacteria for the population to grow.

In 30 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 20 organisms.

[tex]\rm = 20 \times 2 = 40 \ bacteria[/tex]

In 30 minutes 40 bacteria for the population to grow.

In 45 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 40 organisms.

[tex]\rm = 40 \times 2 = 80 \ bacteria[/tex]

In 45 minutes 80 bacteria for the population to grow.

In 60 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 80 organisms.

[tex]\rm = 80 \times 2 = 160 \ bacteria[/tex]

In 60 minutes 160 bacteria for the population to grow.

In 75 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 160 organisms.

[tex]\rm = 160 \times 2 = 320 \ bacteria[/tex]

In 75 minutes 320 bacteria for the population to grow.

In 90 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 320 organisms.

[tex]\rm = 320 \times 2 = 640 \ bacteria[/tex]

In 90 minutes 640 bacteria for the population to grow.

In 120 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 640 organisms.

[tex]\rm = 640 \times 2 = 1280 \ bacteria[/tex]

In 120 minutes 1280 bacteria for the population to grow.

Hence, In 90 minutes the population to grow to 700 organisms.

In the year 2001, a person bought a new car for $12000. For each consecutive year after that, the value of the car depreciated by 10%. How much would the car be worth in the year 2004, to the nearest hundred dollars? i need this asap

Answers

Answer: $8700.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation we can use is p  x  r^years.

p is the original value ($12000).

r is our multiplier, it goes down by 10% so our multiplier is 1-0.1 giving us 0.9.

IT is 2001 to 2004 so 3 years so we do r to the power of 3.

So we use 12000 x 0.9^3.

This is equal to 8748, to the nearest 100 dollars its $8700.

PLEASEEEE HELP!DUE IN 1 HOUR! A housing contractor has subdivided a farm into 100 building lots. She has designed two types of homes for these lots: colonial and ranch style. A colonial requires $30,000 of capital and produces a profit of $3000 when sold. A ranch-style house requires $40,000 of capital and provides an $7000 profit. If the contractor has $3.8 million of capital on hand, how many houses of each type should she build for maximum profit?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A housing contractor has subdivided a farm into 100 building lots. She has designed two types of homes for these lots: colonial and ranch style. A colonial requires $30,000 of capital and produces a profit of $2000 when sold. A ranch-style house requires $40,000 of capital and provides an $8000 profit. If the contractor has $3.2 million of capital on hand, how many houses of each type should she build for maximum profit?

? colonials

? ranches

For maximum profit, the contractor should build 80 colonial houses and 20 ranch-style houses. The maximum profit achievable is $740,000.

Let x be the number of colonial houses built.

Let y be the number of ranch-style houses built.

Now, we can set up the objective function, which represents the total profit:

Total Profit (P) = 3000x + 7000y

The total cost of the houses built cannot exceed the available capital, which is $3.8 million (or $3,800,000):

30,000x + 40,000y ≤ 3,800,000

The number of building lots used cannot exceed the total number of lots available, which is 100:

x + y ≤ 100

Also, we need to consider that the number of houses (x and y) must be non-negative:

x ≥ 0

y ≥ 0

Now, we have the linear programming model with the objective function and constraints.

We need to find the values of x and y that maximize the total profit (P).

Graph the feasible region determined by the constraints (x + y ≤ 100, x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0, 30,000x + 40,000y ≤ 3,800,000), and then evaluate the objective function (P = 3000x + 7000y) at each corner point of the feasible region to find the maximum profit.

The feasible region is a polygon with vertices at the following points:

(0, 0)

(0, 95) (Intersection of x = 0 and y = 95)

(80, 20) (Intersection of x = 80 and y = 20)

(100, 0) (Intersection of x = 100 and y = 0)

Now, evaluate the objective function (P) at each corner point:

(0, 0): P = 0

(0, 95): P = 665,000

(80, 20): P =  740,000

(100, 0): P = 300,000

The maximum profit of $740,000 occurs when the contractor builds 80 colonial houses and 20 ranch-style houses

Hence, for maximum profit, the contractor should build 80 colonial houses and 20 ranch-style houses.

How many 1/4 inch cubes does it take to fill a box with width 1 inches, length 3 3/4 inches and height 1 1/2inches?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

we need to see how many cubes fit into every dimension.

we can fit 4 cubes along the 1 in width. as 4×1/4 = 1 in.

we can fit 15 cubes along the 3 3/4 in length :

3 3/4 = 12/4 + 3/4 = 15/4

15/4 / 1/4 = 15/4 × 4/1 = 4×15 / 4×1 = 15

we can put 6 cubes on top of each other fit the height of 1 1/2 in

1 1/2 = 2/2 + 1/2 = 3/2 = 6/4

6/4 / 1/4 = ... = 6 (as above - simply 1/4 fits 6 times into 6/4).

so, we have

4 × 15 × 6 = 360

we need 360 cubes to fill the box.

All you have to do is subtract 4. Your equation is y=x2 - 4. If you wanted to move the graph up it is addition and if you want to move it down it is subtraction. When you translate right to left it is more complicated! Hope this helps.  :))
