2. Find the common difference and the recursive formula. a. 22, 19, 16, 13, …

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The common difference d is d = -3

The recursive formula is: [tex]\mathbf{a_n=a_{n-1}-3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the common difference and the recursive formula.

a. 22, 19, 16, 13, …

First we will find common difference

The formula of arithmetic sequence is: [tex]a_n=a_1+(n-1)d[/tex]

where a_n is nth term, a_1 is 1st term and d is the difference

Looking at the sequence we get: a_1=22, a_2=19

Using these values we can find d, the common difference

[tex]a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\\put\:n=2, a_2=19, a_1=22\\19=22+(2-1)d\\19=22+d\\d=19-22\\d=-3[/tex]

So, the common difference d is d = -3

Now, we will find the recursive formula:

The recursive formula is of type: [tex]a_n=a_{n-1}+d[/tex]

We have found common difference d = -3

So, the recursive formula will be:

[tex]a_n=a_{n-1}+d\\a_n=a_{n-1}+(-3)\\a_n=a_{n-1}-3[/tex]

The recursive formula is: [tex]\mathbf{a_n=a_{n-1}-3}[/tex]

A chemist has a solution of 65% pure acid and another solution of 30% pure acid. How many gallons of each will make 350 gallons of 55% pure acid solution?

Answers

Answer:

250 of 65% acid

100 gallons of 30% acid

Really sorry if this is incorrect, I had this question on my Lesson 16 test, and I don't know if it's correct or not...

Following are the calculation to the given question:

Assuming

x=The number of gallons of pure acid [tex](50\%)[/tex]

y = The number of liters of pure acid at [tex](80\%)[/tex] a concentration

[tex]\to x+y = 350[/tex]

The total quantity of gallons of each of the two types of pure acids............(1)

[tex]\to 0.65x+0.30y = 0.55(x+y)[/tex]

the mixture's acidity

[tex]\to 0.65x+0.30y = 0.55(350)\\\\\to 0.65x+0.30y = 192.5 ..........(2)[/tex]

So we have two equations and two variables to work with.

[tex]\to x+y = 350\\\\\to 0.65x+0.30y = 192[/tex]

multiply the first equation by [tex]0.30[/tex]

[tex]\to 0.30x+0.30y = 105\\\\\to 0.65x+0.30y = 192[/tex]

Subtract the second equation from the first

[tex]\to 0.35x = 87\\\\\to x = 248. 57 \approx 248 \ gallons\\\\ \to y = 350-248 = 102\ gallons\\\\[/tex]

As a result, we'll need 248 gallons of 65% pure acid and 102 gallons of 30% pure acid.

LCM of 189024
please give me answer my question​

Answers

Answer:

360

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the LCM of 18,90 and 24.

The prime factorization of 18 = 2 × 3 × 3

The prime factorization of 90 = 2 × 5×3×3

The prime factorization of 24 = 2 × 3×2×2

LCM is least common multiple.

LCM = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 5

= 360

Hence, the LCM of 18,90 and 24 is 360.

how do i write an equation in point-slope form for a horizontal line that passes through(4, –2)??

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y = -2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Horizontal Line

[tex](x_1,y_1) = (4,-2)[/tex]

Required

Determine the equation

The equation is calculated using:

[tex]y - y_1 =m(x-x_1)[/tex]

Where

[tex]m = slope[/tex]

Because the line is a horizontal line, then:

[tex]m = 0[/tex]

Substitute 0 for m and values for x1 and y1 in [tex]y - y_1 =m(x-x_1)[/tex]

[tex]y - (-2) = 0(x -4)[/tex]

[tex]y +2 = 0(x -4)[/tex]

[tex]y +2 = 0[/tex]

Subtract 2 from both sides

[tex]y +2-2 = 0-2[/tex]

[tex]y = -2[/tex]

Hence, the equation is: [tex]y = -2[/tex]

In how many ways can Anna arrange 2 math books, 3 physics books, and 5 chemistry books on her shelf if all books of the same subject must be adjacent? (The books are distinguishable.)

Answers

Answer:

8640 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Arranging the books of each subject:

Math:

Combination of 2 books → 2! = 2

Physics:

Combination of 3 books → 3! = 6

Chemistry:

Combination of 5 books → 5! = 120

We also need to consider the subjects.

There are 3 subjects, kept separately, they will be arranged in 3! = 6 ways

So the total number of combinations is:

2*6*120*6 = 8640

Answer:

2 maths books can be arranged as (2!=2) ways 3 physics books can be arranged as (3!=6) ways5 chemistry books can be arranged as (5!=120) waysBooks can be arranged in suject-wise in (3!=6) ways

Hence, total ways are (2×6×120×6) ways =8640 ways.

8640 is the right answer.

The total cost = $90

Step-by-step explanation:

As, $75 is the cost of the meal
