The 4th term of an exponential sequence is 108 and the common ratio is 3. Calculate the value of the eighth term of the sequence.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The eighth term is 8748

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the sequence is a geometric sequence

For an nth term in a geometric sequence

[tex]A (n) = a ({r})^{n - 1} [/tex]

where

a is the first term

r is the common ratio

n is the number of terms

To find the eighth term we must first find the first term

4th term = 108

common ratio = 3

That's

[tex]A(4) = a ({r})^{4 - 1} [/tex]

[tex]108 = a ({3})^{3} [/tex]

[tex]27a = 108[/tex]

Divide both sides by 27

a = 4

The first term is 4

For the eighth term

[tex]A(8) = 4 ({3})^{8 - 1} [/tex]

[tex]A(8) = 4({3})^{7} [/tex]

The final answer is

A(8) = 8748

The eighth term is 8748

Your neighbor pays $40 to have her lawn mowed and always adds a 15% tip. You and your friend decide to mow the lawn together and split the earnings evenly.
How much will each of you make?

Answers

Answer:

$23

Step-by-step explanation:

A 15% tip on $40 is $6. The total you and your friend will receive is $46. When you split that evenly, you will each receive $23.

Cost of Mowing = $40

Tip = 15%

= 15/100×40

= $6

So you get $40 + $6

= $46

When you divide it in 2 people

= 46/2

= $23

Therefore each of you will make $23

A baseball league is holding registration for both a men's league and a women's league. Only a total of 546 players can register, and each team consists of exactly 13 players. If 25 women's teams have already registered, which inequality could be used to find m, the number of men's teams that can register? A. 25(13) + 13m 546 C. 25(13 + 13m) 546

Answers

Answer:

546 - 25 x 13 (divided by) 13

546 - (25 x 13) / 13

Step-by-step explanation:

25 x 13 = 325

546 - 325 = 221

221 / 13 = 17

17 mens teams can register.

Answer:

[tex]25(13)+13m\leq 546[/tex]

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Each team can only consists of thirteen players. Therefore, by letting w represent the number of women's teams and m the number of men's teams, the total number of players is represented by the equation:

[tex]13w+13m[/tex]

The total number of players cannot surpass 546. In other words, it must be less than or equal to. Therefore:

[tex]13w+13m\leq 546[/tex]

We are given that that 25 women's teams have already signed up. To find out the possible number of men's teams that can sign up, we can substitute 25 for w and then solve for m.

Therefore:

[tex]25(13)+13m\leq 546[/tex]

In conclusion, the answer is A.

at old oak farm, there are chicken and horses. there are 120 legs and 48 heads altogether. how many horses and how many chickens are there?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We must use system of equations:

horses = h     chickens = c

horses have 4 legs & chickens have 2 and there are 120 legs total so to set up the first part of the equation...

4h + 2c = 120

They both have only 1 head each and there are 48 heads total so to set up the second part of the equation...

h + c = 48

Now we combine the equations and solve:

4h + 2c = 120

h + c = 48

Now we solve...

4h + 2c = 120

h = 48 - c         (subtract c on both sides to single out h)

--------------------

4(48 - c) + 2c = 120

192 - 4c + 2c = 120

-192                  -192

----------------------------

-2c = -72           (divide both sides by -2)

c = 36

Now we go back and find the value of h...

h = 48 - c

h = 48 - 36

h = 12

So there are 36 chickens & 12 horses!

Once upon a time, there was a former whose family raised pigs and chickens. One morning, the farmer's wife looked into the barnyard and told her husband that she counted 24 heads and 80 feet. How many chickens are in the yard? How many pigs are in the yard?

Answers

Using a system of equations, it is found that:

There are 8 chickens in the yard.There are 16 pigs in the yard.

-----------------------------------------

This question is solved using a system of equations. I am going to say that:

x is the number of chickens.y is the number of pigs.

-----------------------------------------

A chicken has 1 head, as do a pig.There are 24 heads.

Thus:

[tex]x + y = 24 \rightarrow y = 24 - x[/tex]

-----------------------------------------

A chicken has 2 feet.A pig has 4 feet.In total, there are 80 feet.

Thus:

[tex]2x + 4y = 80[/tex]

-----------------------------------------

Number of chicken:

Since [tex]y = 24 - x[/tex]

[tex]2x + 4y = 80[/tex]

[tex]2x + 4(24 - x) = 80[/tex]

[tex]2x + 96 - 4x = 80[/tex]

[tex]2x = 16[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{16}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x = 8[/tex]

There are 8 chickens in the yard.

It takes 1.5 seconds for a grandfather clock's pendulum to swing from left (initial position) to right, covering a horizontal distance of 10 inches. Which function models the horizontal displacement as a function of time in seconds? y = 5 cosine (StartFraction 2 pi Over 3 EndFraction x) y = 5 cosine (StartFraction 4 pi Over 3 EndFraction x) y = 10 cosine (StartFraction 2 pi Over 3 EndFraction x) y = 10 cosine (StartFraction 4 pi Over 3 EndFraction x)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given functions are

y = 5 cos ( 2π / 3 ) t

y = 5 cos ( 4π / 3 ) t

y= 10 cos ( 2π / 3 ) t

y = 10 cos ( 4π / 3 ) t

The pendulum half oscillation from left extreme to right extreme takes 1.5 s

So its time period of oscillation T = 1.5 x 2 = 3 s .

standard equation of oscillation is

y = A cos ω t where A is amplitude and ω is angular frequency .

Amplitude of oscillation A = 10 / 2 = 5 inch .

Among the given equation of motion only first two has amplitude equal to 5 . So both the last two are ruled out .

The angular frequency of first motion as per given equation

ω = 2π / 3

If time period is T

2π / T = 2π / 3

T = 3 s

So it matches with the time period of oscillation of pendulum .

Hence the first equation truly represents the oscillation of pendulum.

The function models the horizontal displacement as a function of time in seconds is  [tex]\rm y = 10 sin(\dfrac{2\pi}{3})t[/tex]  and this can be determined by using the given data.

Given :

It takes 1.5 seconds for a grandfather clock's pendulum to swing from left (initial position) to right, covering a horizontal distance of 10 inches.

For the oscillation the standard equation is given below:

[tex]\rm y = A\;cos \;\omega t[/tex]

where A is the amplitude, [tex]\omega[/tex] is the angular velocity, and t is the time.

Now, determine the time period that is:

T = 1.5 [tex]\times[/tex] 2

T = 3sec

Now, the angular frequency is given by:

[tex]\omega = \dfrac{2\pi}{3}[/tex]

So, the function models the horizontal displacement as a function of time in seconds is given below:

[tex]\rm y = 10 sin(\dfrac{2\pi}{3})t[/tex]

[tex]\frac{JK}{AC}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{BK}{BC}[/tex] , substitute values

[tex]\frac{JK}{40}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

5JK = 120 ( divide both sides by 5 )

JK = 24

the triangles are all similar, because they have proportional sides and equal angles.

if you assume the smallest, equal part of side to be x

the biggest triangle has "5 parts" so BC=5x and BK has 3 parts so BK=3x .

since they're similar, ratio of their corresponding sides is constant or equal.

[tex] {BK\over BC}={JK \over AC}[/tex]

BK/BC=3/5

and AC=40

so JK = 40*3/5=24

I absolutely hate math with all of my heart.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The equation graph is a parabola, so the maximum height will be the vertex of the parabola. You can find the vertex coordinate t using the formula:

t = -b/2a

t = -18/2•(-4.9)

t = -18/-9.8

t = 1.84 seconds

2. The height of the ground is 0, so the balls hit the ground when the equation result is 0:

0 = -4.9t²+18t+10

Now you solve it using Bhaskara:

Δ = b² -4ac

Δ = 18² -4•(-4.9)•10

Δ = 520

t = (-b ±√Δ)/2a

t = (-18 ± √520)/2•(-4.9)

t1 = (-18 - 20.8)/-9.8

t1 = 3.96 seconds

t2 = (-18 +20.8)/-9.8

t2 = -0.28

Doesn't exist negative time, so we pick the first value found, t = 3.96 seconds

3. Now you just need to put 3 in place of t to find the result:

h = -4.9•3² +18•3 +10

h = -4.9•9 + 54 + 10

h = -44.1 + 64

h = 19.9 meters

4. You just need to put 1 in place of t to find the height:

h = -4.9•1²+12

h = -4.9+12

h = 7.1 meters
