A stack of logs has 22 logs on the bottom layer. Each subsequent layer has 4 fewer logs than the previous layer. If the top layer has two​ logs, how many total logs are there in the​ pile?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

88

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

If the top layer has two​ logs, there are a total of 88 logs in the pile

How to solve

Number of logs in the bottom layer = 22

Number of logs in the top layer = 2

Number of logs in each subsequent layer = 22 - 2 = 20

Number of layers in the pile = 22 - 2 + 1 = 21

Total number of logs in the pile = 22 + 20 + 18 + ... + 2

This is an arithmetic series with first term 22, last term 2, and common difference -4.

The sum of an arithmetic series is given by the following formula:

sum = (first term + last term)/2 * number of terms

sum = (22 + 2)/2 * 21 = 88

Therefore, there are a total of 88 logs in the pile.\

Amount of questions = 30

Success rate = 70% or 0.70

Amount of questions right = 30 x 0.70

What is a quadratic equation?

A quadratic equation is the equation in which the unknown variable is one and the highest power of the unknown variable is two.

The standard form of the quadratic equation is,

The given quadratic equation in the problem is,

a(down)1 = 2

a(down)n=-3a(down)n-1 + 2

Answers

It looks like you're given a recursive sequence [tex]\{a_n\}[/tex] defined by

[tex]\begin{cases}a_1 = 2 \\ a_n = -3a_{n-1} + 2 & \text{for }n>1 \end{cases}[/tex]

and I assume you wish to solve it.

By definition of the n-th term [tex]a_n[/tex], we have

[tex]a_2 = -3a_1 + 2[/tex]

[tex]a_3 = -3a_2+2 = -3(-3a_1+2)+2 = (-3)^2a_1 - 3\times2 + 2[/tex]

[tex]a_4 = -3a_3+2 = -3((-3)^2a_1 - 3\times2 + 2) + 2 = (-3)^3a_1 +(-3)^2\times2-3\times2+2[/tex]

and so on.

Notice the patterns:

• the exponent of -3 in the coefficient of [tex]a_1[/tex] on the right side is always 1 less than the subscript on the left side

• the sum of terms not involving [tex]a_1[/tex] is a geometric sum of (subscript - 1) terms,

[tex]2 = 2 \times(-3)^0[/tex]

[tex]-3\times2+2 = 2 ((-3)^0 + (-3)^1)[/tex]

[tex](-3)^2\times2-3\times2+2 = 2 ((-3)^0 + (-3)^1 + (-3)^2)[/tex]

This suggests that the general n-th term is

[tex]a_n = (-3)^{n-1}a_1 + 2((-3)^0 + (-3)^1 + (-3)^2 + \cdots + (-3)^{n-2})[/tex]

and with [tex]a_1=2[/tex], this becomes

[tex]a_n = 2(-3)^{n-1} + 2((-3)^0 + (-3)^1 + (-3)^2 + \cdots + (-3)^{n-2})[/tex]

[tex]a_n = 2((-3)^0 + (-3)^1 + (-3)^2 + \cdots + (-3)^{n-2} + (-3)^{n-1})[/tex]

or more compactly in sigma notation,

[tex]a_n = 2 \displaystyle \sum_{k=0}^{n-1} (-3)^k[/tex]

We can go on to get a closed form for [tex]a_n[/tex]. Let S denote the sum,

[tex]S = (-3)^0 + (-3)^1 + (-3)^2 + \cdots + (-3)^{n-2} + (-3)^{n-1}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by -3 :

[tex]-3S = (-3)^1 + (-3)^2 + (-3)^3 + \cdots + (-3)^{n-1} + (-3)^{n}[/tex]

Subtract this from S - lots of terms will cancel:

[tex]S - (-3S) = (-3)^0 - (-3)^{n}[/tex]

[tex]S + 3S = 1 - (-3)^n[/tex]

[tex]4S = 1 - (-3)^n[/tex]

[tex]S = \dfrac{1 - (-3)^n}4[/tex]

It follows that the n-th term of the sequence is explicitly given by

[tex]a_n = 2S = \boxed{\dfrac{1 - (-3)^n}2}[/tex]

Edit: Just noticed your comment. You can get the 5th term by plugging the 4th term back into the recurrence:

[tex]a_1 = 2[/tex]

[tex]a_2 = -3a_1 + 2 = -3\times2 + 2 = -4[/tex]

[tex]a_3 = -3a_2 + 2 = -3\times(-4) + 2 = 14[/tex]

[tex]a_4 = -3a_3 + 2 = -3\times14 + 2 = -40[/tex]

[tex]a_5 = -3a_4 + 2 = -3\times(-40) + 2 = \boxed{122}[/tex]

Or, using the n-th term we found above,

[tex]a_5 = \dfrac{1 - (-3)^5}2 = \dfrac{1 - (-243)}2 = \dfrac{244}2 = \boxed{122}[/tex]

Answer:

< x = 120°

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

According to angle sum property,

y + 50 + 70 = 180

Step 2:

x and y are linear pairs, forming a supplementary angle.

Therefore,

x + y = 180

Step 3:

Since they are both equal to 180, equate the values

y + 50 + 70 = x + y

x = 70 + 50

x = 120
