The formula for determining the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is expressed as
f(n) = f(1) + (n - 1)d
Where
f(1) represents the first term
d represents the common difference
n represents the number of terms
From the information given,
f(1) = 16
d = 48 - 16 = 80 - 48 = 32
a) The first term of the sequence is 16
b) the common difference is 32
c) The explicit is
f(n) = 16 + 32(n - 1)
d) To find the distance the stone travels in the 5th second, it means that n = 5
Thus
f(5) = 16 + 32(5 - 1)
f(5) = 16 + 32 * 4
f(5) = 144
the distance the stone travels in the 5th second is 144 feet
Use complete sentences to explain the process you would use to find the volume of the shipping box.(Trying to help my son with this)
Part A)
The given shipping box is a cuboid.
Recall that the longest length of the cuboid is diagonal.
The length of the longest item that fits inside the shipping box is the measure of the diagonal of the given box.
Given that measure breadth=16 inches and measure height = 12 inches.
Recall the formula for the diagonal d of the cuboid is
[tex]d=\sqrt[]{l^2+b^2+h^2}[/tex]We need to find the measure of the length of the cuboid.
Consider the base of the cuboid which is in rectangle shape.
Here breadth of the rectangle is 16 inches and diagonal of the rectangle is 24 inches.
Recall the formula for the diagonal of the rectangle is
[tex]diagonal_{}=\sqrt[]{l^2+b^2}[/tex]Substitute diagonal =24 inches and breath =16 inches, we get
[tex]24_{}=\sqrt[]{l^2+16^2}[/tex][tex]24_{}=\sqrt[]{l^2+256}[/tex]Taking square on both sides, we get
[tex]24^2_{}=l^2+256[/tex][tex]576-256=l^2[/tex][tex]320=l^2[/tex]Taking square root on both sides, we get
[tex]\sqrt[]{320}=l[/tex][tex]l=17.89\text{ inches}[/tex]Now, substitute l=17.89, b=16, and h=12 in the diagonal of the cuboid equation to find the diagonal of the cuboid.
[tex]d^{}=\sqrt[]{17.89^2+16^2+12^2}[/tex][tex]d^{}=\sqrt[]{320+256+144}=\sqrt[]{720}=26.83\text{ inches}[/tex]Hence the length of the longest item that fits inside the shipping box is 26.8 inches.
Part B)
Consider the length l=17.89 inches, b=16 inches, and height h=12 inches.
Recall the formula for the volume of the cuboid is
[tex]V=l\times w\times h[/tex]Substitute the length l=17.89 inches, b=16 inches, and height h=12 inches, we get
[tex]V=17.89\times16\times12[/tex][tex]V=3434.88inches^3[/tex]Hence the volume of the given shipping box is 3434.88 cubic inches.

One group (A) contains 75 people. Two fifths of the people in group A will be selected to win $20 fuel cards. There is another group (B) in a nearby town that will receive the same number of fuel cards, but there are 154 people in that group. What will be the ratio of no winners in group A to nonwinners in group B after the selections are made? Express your ratio as a fraction or with a colon.
group A contains 75 people
Two-fifths of the people in group A (75*2/5=30) win $20 fuel cards.
so there are 30 fuel cards and 75-30=45 non-winners in group A
group B are 154 people and the same number of fuel cards, so 30
the number of non-winners in group B is 154-30=124
So the ratio of no winners in group A to nonwinners in group B is:
45/124

Write the equation in standard form for the hyperbola with vertices (-9,0) and (9,0) and a conjugate axis of length 16
The given vertices are (-9,0) and (9,0).
Notice that they lie on the x-axis since they have 0 as their y-coordinate.
Hence, the hyperbola is a horizontal hyperbola.
Recall that the equation of a horizontal hyperbola is given as:
[tex]\frac{(x-h)^2}{a^2}-\frac{(y-k)^2}{b^2}=1[/tex]Where (h,k) is the center and a>b.
As both vertices are equidistant from the origin, the center of the hyperbola is (0,0), and the equation becomes:
[tex]\frac{x^2}{a^2}-\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1[/tex]Note that the vertices are at (-a,0) and (a,0).
Compare with the given vertices (-9,0) and (9,0). It follows that a=9.
Substitute this into the equation:
[tex]\frac{x^2}{9^2}-\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1[/tex]Recall that the length of the conjugate axis is given as 2b, it follows that:

We have the next equation line:
[tex]3x-y\text{ = 5}[/tex]We need to solve the equation for y to get the equation form
[tex]-y\text{ =5-3x}[/tex]Multiply the equation by -1
[tex](-1)-y\text{ =(-1)(5-3x)}[/tex][tex]y\text{ = -5+3x}[/tex]Where the y-intercept is -5 and the slope is 3x.
To find the line parallel we need to know that the parallel lines have the same slope.
The parallel line also intercepts y at point (0,-7).
[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]Replace the slope=m = 3

Given:
The principal amount is P = $3000.
The rate of interest is r = 5% = 0.05.
The interest rate is A = $600.
The objective is,
a) To find the number of years.
b) To find the monthly payment.
Explanation:
a)
The general formula for simple interest is,
[tex]A=P\times n\times r\text{ . . . . . .(1)}[/tex]To find n:
On plugging the given values in equation (1),
[tex]\begin{gathered} 600=3000\times n\times0.05 \\ n=\frac{600}{3000\times0.05} \\ n=4 \end{gathered}[/tex]b)
Since, the total amount of the item can be calculated as,
[tex]T=A+P\text{ .. . . . (2)}[/tex]On plugging the obtained values in equation (2),
[tex]\begin{gathered} T=600+3000 \\ T=3600 \end{gathered}[/tex]To find monthly payment:
Now, the monthly payment can be calculated as,
[tex]m=\frac{T}{n\times12}\text{ . . . . .(3)}[/tex]Here, m represents the monthly payment, the product of 12 is used to convert the number of years into the number of months.
On plugging the obtained values in equation (3),
[tex]\begin{gathered} m=\frac{3600}{4\times12} \\ m=75 \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence,
a) The number of years is 4 years.
b) The monthly payment is $75.

13. A 640 kg of a radioactive substance decays to 544 kg in 13 hours. A. Find the half-life of the substance. Be sure to show your work including the formulas you used. Round to the nearest tenth of an hour. Only solutions using formulas from the 4.6 lecture notes will receive credit.B. How much of the substance is present after 3 days? Be sure to show the model you used.C. How long does it take the substance to reach 185 kg? Be sure to show your work.
EXPLANATION
The equation for half-life is given by the following formula:
[tex]H=\frac{t\cdot\ln(2)}{\ln(\frac{A_0}{A_t})}[/tex]Replacing terms:
[tex]H=\frac{t\cdot\ln(2)}{\ln(\frac{A_0}{A_t})}=\frac{13\cdot\ln(2)}{\ln(\frac{640}{544})}=\frac{9.0109}{0.1625}=55.45[/tex]The half-life time is H =55.4 hours.
B) After three days, that is, 72 hours, the amount of substance will be given by the following relationship:
[tex]A=A_o\cdot e^{-(\frac{\ln2}{H})t}=640\cdot e^{-(\frac{\ln2}{55.4})\cdot72}=640\cdot e^{-0.90084}[/tex]Multiplying terms:
[tex]A=640\cdot0.4062=259.96\text{ Kg}[/tex]There will be 259.96 Kg after 3 days.
C) In order to compute the number of days that will take to the substance to reach a concentration equal to 185 Kg, we need to apply the following formula:
[tex]t=\frac{\ln (\frac{A}{A_o})}{-\frac{\ln (2)}{t\frac{1}{2}}}[/tex]Replacing terms:
[tex]t=\frac{\ln (\frac{185}{544})}{-\frac{\ln (2)}{55.45}}=\frac{-1.0785}{-0.0125}=\frac{1.0785}{0.0125}=86.28\text{ hours}[/tex]It will take 86.28 hours to the substance to reach 185 Kg.

[tex]\begin{gathered} S=25+7t \\ A=0+15t \end{gathered}[/tex]when t is the number of weeks. if we made equal the ecuation we will have the time when they would have the same amound:
[tex]\begin{gathered} S=A \\ 25+7t=15t \end{gathered}[/tex]and we solve for t
[tex]\begin{gathered} 25=15t-7t \\ 25=8t \\ \frac{25}{8}=t \\ 3.125=t \end{gathered}[/tex]This means that in the next full number Australia will have more money than Samantha, so in 4 weeks this is going to happen.
Consider the following graph. Determine the domain and range of the graph? Is the domain and range all real numbers?
ANSWER
Domain = [-10, 10]
Range = [4]
EXPLANATION
Domain of a graph is the set of all input values on x-axis; while
Range is the set of all possible output values on y-axis.
Determining the Domain from the given graph,
The set of all INPUT values on x-axis are -10, -9, -8,....0......5,6,7,8,9,10.
So the Domain = [-10, 10].
Determining the Range from the given graph,
For the set of all possible OUTPUT values on y-axis, we only have 4,
So the Range = [4]
Hence, Domain = [-10, 10] and Range = [4]
