The n-th term of a geometric sequence is given by the formula:
[tex]\begin{gathered} U_n=a_1r^{n-1} \\ r=\text{ common ration} \\ a_1=\text{ first term} \end{gathered}[/tex]Given that:
[tex]\begin{gathered} a_2=64 \\ r=\frac{1}{4} \\ n=2 \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence,
[tex]\begin{gathered} a_2=a_1(\frac{1}{4})^{2-1}=64 \\ a_1(\frac{1}{4})=64 \\ a_1=64\times4 \\ =256 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the rule for the nth term of the sequence is
[tex]\begin{gathered} U_n=a_1r^{n-1} \\ U_n=256_{}(\frac{1}{4})^{n-1} \end{gathered}[/tex]Cai says you can divide both quantities in a ratio by the same non-zero number to find an equivalent ratio. Explain why cai is correct.
In this case, Cai is right.
Basically, Cai is right because a ratio is a fraction. So, if you divide the numerator and denomirator by the same number, the fraction won't be changed, in that case you would get an equivalent fraction.
For example, if we have 4/6, and we divide both numbers by 2, we get 2/3, these operations are valid because you are dividing both numbers by the same (2).
5) 40,20,10,5, _,_,_a) Explain and Complete the sequence.B) write an explicit and recursive formula for the sequence
We have the sequence: 40, 20, 10, 5,...
Each term is half the previous term, so it is a geometrical sequence with common ratio r = 0.5.
We can not complete the sequence, as it becomes infinitely smaller and does not have a last term.
But we can write the three next terms to complete the blank spaces: 2.5, 1.25, 0.625.
We can start by writing the recursive formula. We know that each term is half the value of the previous term, so we wil have:
[tex]a_n=0.5\cdot a_{n-1}[/tex]From this recursive formula, we can deduce the explicit formula (in terms of n) as:
[tex]\begin{gathered} a_1=40 \\ a_2=0.5\cdot40=20 \\ a_3=0.5\cdot20=0.5\cdot(0.5\cdot40)=0.5^2\cdot40=10 \\ a_4=0.5\cdot10=0.5\cdot(0.5^2\cdot40)=0.5^3\cdot40 \\ \Rightarrow a_n=40\cdot0.5^{n-1} \end{gathered}[/tex]Answer:
a) Geometric sequence with r = 0.5.
The sequence first terms are: 40, 20, 10, 5, 2.5, 1.25, 0.625.
b) The recursive formula is a(n) = 0.5*a(n-1).
The explicit formula is a(n) = 40*0.5^(n-1).
find the area of the semicircle round to the nearest tenth use 3.14 for pi do not include units with your answer 12 in
226.08
1) Since the area of the semicircle is half the circle area, then we can write:
[tex]S=\frac{1}{2}\cdot\pi\cdot r^2[/tex]2) So we can plug into that the size of that radius:
[tex]\begin{gathered} S=\frac{1}{2}\cdot\pi\cdot(12)^2 \\ S=\frac{1}{2}\cdot\pi\cdot144 \\ S=72\pi\Rightarrow S=72\times3.14\Rightarrow S=226.08 \end{gathered}[/tex]3) Hence, the area of that semicircle is 226.08 in²

Evaluate g(-3)Determine the coordinates of the point given by the answer aboveEvaluate g(2a)Step By Step Explanation Please
Given the quadratic equation:
[tex]g(x)=3x^2-5x+4[/tex]Let's solve for the following:
• (a) g(-3)
To solve for g(-3), substitute -3 for x and evaluate.
Thus, we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} g(x)=3x^2-5x+4 \\ \\ g(-3)=3(-3)^2-5(-3)+4 \\ \\ g(-3)=3(9)+15+4 \\ \\ g(-3)=27+15+4 \\ \\ g(-3)=46 \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence, we have:
g(-3) = 46
• (b) To determine the coordinates of the point given in question (a).
In the function, g(x) can also be written as y.
Thus, from g(-3), we have the following:
x = -3
y = 46
When x = -3, the value of y = 46
In point form, we have the coordinates:
(x, y) ==> (-3, 46)
Therefore, the coordinates of the given point by the answer in (a) is:
(-3, 46)
• (c) Evaluate g(2a).
To evaluate g(2a), substitute 2a for x in the equation and evaluate.
Thus, we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} g(x)=3x^2-5x+4 \\ \\ g(2a)=3(2a)^2-5(2a)+4 \\ \\ g(2a)=3(4a^2)-5(2a)+4 \\ \\ g(2a)=12a^2-10a+4 \end{gathered}[/tex]ANSWERS:
• (a) g(-3) = 46
• (b) (-3, 46)
• (c) g(2a) = 12a² - 10a + 4

consider the function f(x) whose second derivative is f' '(x)=4x+4sin(x). If f(0)=3 and f'(0)=4, what is f(5)?
Problem: consider the function f(x) whose second derivative is f' '(x)=4x+4sin(x). If f(0)=3 and f'(0)=4, what is f(5)?.
Solution:
Let the function f(x) whose second derivative is:
[tex]f^{\prime\prime}(x)\text{ = 4x+4sin(x)}[/tex]Now, the antiderivative (integral) of the above function would be:
EQUATION 1:
[tex]f^{\prime}(x)=\int f^{\prime\prime}(x)\text{ }dx\text{= }2x^2-4\cos (x)\text{ +C1}[/tex]where C1 is a constant because we have an indefinite integral. Now the antiderivative (integral) of the above function f´(x) is:
[tex]f(x)=\int f^{\prime}(x)\text{ }dx\text{=}\int \text{ (}2x^2-4\cos (x)\text{ +C1)}dx\text{ }[/tex]that is:
EQUATION 2:
[tex]f(x)=\text{ }\frac{2x^3}{3}-4\sin (x)+C1x+\text{ C2}[/tex]where C2 is a constant because we have an indefinite integral.
Now using the previous equation, if f(0)= 3 then:
[tex]3=\text{ C2}[/tex]Now, using equation 1 and the fact that f ´(0) = 4, then we have:
[tex]4=f^{\prime}(0)\text{= }^{}-4\text{ +C1}[/tex]That is:
[tex]4=\text{ }^{}-4\text{ +C1}[/tex]Solve for C1:
[tex]8=\text{ }^{}\text{C1}[/tex]Now, replacing the constants C1 and C2 in equation 2, we have an expression for f(x):
[tex]f(x)=\text{ }\frac{2x^3}{3}-4\sin (x)+8x+3[/tex]Then f(5) would be:
[tex]f(5)=\text{ }\frac{2(5)^3}{3}-4\sin (5)+40+3=\text{ }125.98[/tex]
then the correct answer is:
[tex]f(5)=\text{ }125.98[/tex]d1 = 16 m; d2 = 14 m what's the rhombus?
Step 1 : To determine the area of the rhombus
[tex]\begin{gathered} d_1=16m,d_2\text{ = 14m } \\ Area\text{ = }\frac{1}{2}\text{ }\times d_1\text{ }\times d_2 \\ Area\text{ = }\frac{1}{2}\text{ }\times\text{ 16 }\times\text{ 14} \\ Area\text{ = }\frac{224}{2} \\ Area=112m^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore the area of the rhombus = 112m²

If 12 gallons of gas cost $26.68, howmuch will 15 gallons cost? (proportion)
It is expected that the cost of gas will increase as the number of gallons increases and decrease as the number of gallons decrease. This is a direct proportion
As such, if
12 gallons of gas cost $26.68
15 gallons will cost 15/12 * $26.68
= $33.35
15 gallons of gas will cost $33.35

The values of f(0), f(2) and f(-2) for the polynomial f(x) = [tex]-x^{3} +7x^{2} -2x+12[/tex] are 12, 28 and 52 respectively.
According to the question,
We have the following information:
f(x) = [tex]-x^{3} +7x^{2} -2x+12[/tex]
Now, to find the value of f(0), we will put 0 in place of x.
f(0) = [tex]-0^{3} +7(0)^{2} -2(0)+12[/tex]
f(0) = 0+7*0-0+12
(When a number has some power then it means that in order to solve this we have expand the expression and multiply the number as many times as the power is given. For example, in the case of 3 as power, we will multiply any number 3 times and in case of 2 as power, we will multiply the given number 2 times.)
f(0) = 0+0-0+12
f(0) = 12
Now, to find the value of f(2), we will put 1 in place of x:
f(2) = [tex]-2^{3} +7(2)^{2} -2(2)+12[/tex]
f(2) = -8+7*4-4+12
f(2) = -8+28-4+12
f(2) = 40 -12
f(2) = 28
Now, to find the value of f(2), we will put -2 in place of x:
f(-2) = [tex]-(-2)^{3} +7(-2)^{2} -2(-2)+12[/tex]
f(-2) = -(-8) + 7*4+4+12
f(-2) = 8+28+4+12
f(-2) = 52
Hence, the value of f(0) is 12, f(2) is 28 and f(-2) is 52.

14 = -y after combining the like terms
The correct answer here is the subtraction property of equality
We simply subtract 3y from both sides of the equation to arrive at this answer
c) -14 = y
We have the multiplication property of equality
The reason for this is that we multiplied both sides by -1 to arrive at this answer
d) y = -14
This is the symmetric property of equality
We have this here because if two values are equal on both sides, we can switch each to the opposite sides and still retain the same equality values

A landscape supply business charges $35 to deliver mulch. The cost of the mulch is
$29 per cubic yard. Write a linear equation to find the cost of having x cubic yards of
mulch delivered to a site.
The linear function to represent the number of mulch delivered to a site is y = 29x + 35
What is a linear function?In mathematics, the term linear function refers to two distinct but related notions: In calculus and related areas, a linear function is a function whose graph is a straight line, that is, a polynomial function of degree zero or one.
For this question, we can represent the cost of having x cubic yards of mulch delivered to a site. For a standard linear function, it can be represented as y = mx + c
m = slope
c = intercept
We can use this concept to write a linear function to represent this problem:
y = mx + c
y = 29x + 35
In this case, the slope is 29 and the intercept is 35. The slope in this situation is the cost of the mulch and the amount charged by the business is the intercept.
The equation representing this problem is y = 29x + 35
