nth term of this quadratic sequence -1,2,7,14,23

Answers

Answer 1

Since we know it's quadratic, the n-th term will follow the pattern

[tex]x_n = an^2 + bn + c[/tex]

for some unknown coefficients a, b, and c.

Given that [tex]x_1=-1[/tex], [tex]x_2=2[/tex], and [tex]x_3=7[/tex], we have the following conditions on these coefficients:

[tex]\begin{cases} a + b + c = -1 \\ 4a + 2b + c = 2 \\ 9a + 3b + c = 7 \end{cases}[/tex]

Solve this system to get a = 1, b = 0, and c = -2. Then

[tex]\boxed{x_n = n^2 - 2}[/tex]

To solve the system, use elimination.

[tex](4a + 2b + c) - (a + b + c) = 2 - (-1) \implies 3a + b = 3[/tex]

[tex](9a + 3b + c) - (a + b + c) = 7 - (-1) \implies 8a + 2b = 8 \implies 4a + b = 4[/tex]

[tex](4a + b) - (3a + b) = 4 - 3 \implies a = 1 \implies b = 0 \implies c = -2[/tex]

Answer:  -∞ < x < ∞

Step-by-step explanation:

      The domain is all the x-values, or inputs, of a function. The range is the y-values, or outputs, of a function.

       In this case, we are looking for the x-values of the function. Since the function will keep going "out forever" in both directions, the answer should be the fourth option;

             - ∞ < x < ∞

The first step that we must take to solving this problem is to fully understand what the problem statement is asking from us and what is given us to solve the problem.  Looking at the problem statement, we can see that they are asking us to determine what the domain of the function is in the graph that was provided.  However, first of all, let us define what domain is.

Domain ⇒ Domain is what x-values can be used in the function that is graphed.  For example, if a line just goes side to side all the way to negative and positive infinity, then the domain would be negative infinity to positive infinity as it includes all of the x-values in it's solutions.

Looking back at our problem, we can see that this is similar to the example that was provided in the definition.  We can see that the parabola reaches out to both positive and negative infinity in the x-direction but at a slope. Although we can only see it reach -2 and 6 we know that the parabola continues going on even after that.  

Therefore, looking at the options that were provided option D, -∞ < x < ∞ would be the best fit as it showcases that x reaches from negative infinity to positive infinity.

a scientist notes that the number of bacteria in a colony is 50.3, hours later she notes that the number of bacteria has increased to 80. if this rate of growth continues, how much more time will it take for the number of bacteria to reach 1119?

Answers

The time it would take for the bacteria to reach 1119 is 5.83 hours

Calculations and Parameters:

Given the function:

[tex]Pt= P_0e^k^t[/tex]

Initial amount= 50amount after 3 hours= 80

To find the exponential growth;

80 = [tex]50e^k^*^3[/tex]

[tex]k= 1.6/3\\k= 0.533[/tex]

If there is a constant growth, then to get to 1119:

1119= [tex]50e^0^.^5^3^3^*t[/tex]

3.8 = 0.533*t

t= 5.83 hours

Therefore, it would take 5.83 hours for the bacteria to increase to 1119.

What is Polynomials?

A polynomial is an expression consisting of indeterminates and coefficients, that involves only the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and non-negative integer exponentiation of variables.

Here, given equation;

          f(x) = (x - 1)(x + 6)

for finding the zeros of the equation we need to put.....f(x) = 0

           0 = (x - 1)(x + 6)

The complete question is

"Segment MP is a diameter of circle O. Circle O is shown. Line segment M P is a diameter. Line segment N O is a radius. Angle N O P is 150 degrees.

Which equation can be used to find mArc M N?

mArc M N + 150 = 180, mArc M N + 150 = 360, mArc M N – 150 = 180, mArc M N – 150 = 360"

The Equation m Arc(MN) + 150  = 180 is used to find mArc MN. Thus, the correct option is A.

What is a system of equations?

A system of equations is two or more equations that can be solved to get a unique solution. the power of the equation must be in one degree.

It is Given:

Segment MP is the diameter of circle O. Circle O is shown.

Line segment M P is a diameter.

Line segment N O is a radius.

∠NOP = 150°

We need to Find the Equation for m Arc MN

We already know the Diameter subtends 180° as it is the half of Circle 360°

∠NOP = 150°  

∴ m(Arc NP) = 150°

The measure of an arc is the measure of its central angle

Therefore,

m Arc Diameter = 180°

m Arc(MN) + m Arc(NP)  = 180

m Arc(MN) + 150  = 180

Therefore, the Equation m Arc(MN) + 150  = 180 is used to find mArc MN.

Thus, the correct option is A.

AB = 5√2

∠A = ∠B = 45

∠A = 90

Step-by-step explanation:

AC = 5 ( Reason : 5 squares are present in between A and C )

Similarly,

BC = 5

By Pythagoras theorem,

(AB)² = (AC)² + (BC)²

        = 5² + 5²

        = 2 * 5²

(AB)² = 2 * 5²

AB = 5√2

Since, sides AC and BC are equal,

∠A = ∠B = 45

Since, AC is perpendicular to BC,

∠A = 90

Graph f(x) = √x + 2 over the domain - 2 ≤x≤7.

Answers

Answer:

The Graph is included Bellow...

Step-by-step explanation:

This function will start at (0,2) and proceed to the right (based on its family function of √x) and since it has been shifted up 2 from f(x) then we will move two units up.

The domain can be considered the range from right to left that the function is restricted in. In this case, it starts at -2 (Which the function doesn't reach) and will stop at 7.

So the Graph you are looking for will start at (0, 2) and proceed to the right until (7, 4.6) ish. I have included a table to help your graph it!
