2. You are given the 3rd and 5th term of an geometric sequence. Describe how to determine the 10th term without finding the general term.

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

1. In an arithmetic sequence, the general term can be written as

xₙ = y + d(a-1), where xₐ represents the ath term, y is the first value, and d is the common difference.

Given the third term and the fifth term, and knowing that the difference between each term is d, we can say that the 4th term is x₃+d and the fifth term is the fourth term plus d, or (x₃+d)+d =

x₃+2d. =x₅ Given x₃ and x₅, we can subtract x₃ from both sides to get

x₅-x₃ = 2d

divide by 2 to isolate d

(x₅-x₃)/2 = d

This lets us solve for d. Given d, we can say that

x₃ = y+d(2)

subtract 2*d from both sides to isolate the y

x₃ -2*d = y

Therefore, because we know x₃ and d at this point, we can solve for y, letting us plug y and d into our original equation of

xₙ = y + d(a-1)

2.

Given the third and fifth term, with a common ratio of r, we can say that the fourth term is x₃ * r. Then, the fifth term is

x₃* r * r

= x₃*r² = x₅

divide both sides by x₃ to isolate the r²

x₅/x₃ = r²

square root both sides

√(x₅/x₃) = ±r

One thing that is important to note is that we don't know whether r is positive or negative. For example, if x₃ = 4 and x₅ = 16, regardless of whether r is equal to 2 or -2, 4*r² = 16. I will be assuming that r is positive for this question.

Given the common ratio, we can find x₆ as x₅ * r, x₇ as x₅*r², and all the way up to x₁₀ = x₅*r⁵. We don't know the general term, but can still find the tenth term of the sequence

let a function F:A➡️B be defined by f(x)=x+1÷2x-1 with A={-1,0,1,2,3,4} and B= {-1,0,4/5,5/7,1,2,3,}.Find the range of f. plzzzz help​

Answers

Answer:

Range: {-1, 0, 5/7, 4/5, 1, 2}

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

f(x) = (x + 1)/(2x - 1)

And:

f: A ⇒ B

where:

A={-1,0,1,2,3,4}

B= {-1,0,4/5,5/7,1,2,3,}

We want to find the range of f(x).

The range of f(x) will be the set of the outputs of f(x) (and because f goes from A to B, we will only take the outputs that belong to B).

Then we only need to evaluate all the values of A in f(x), and see if the output belongs to B.

we have:

f(x) = (x + 1)/(2x - 1)

f(-1) = (-1 + 1)/(2*-1 - 1) = 0   (this does belong to B)

f(0) = (0 + 1)/(2*0 - 1) = -1  (this does belong to B)

f(1) = (1 + 1)/(2*1 - 1) = 2  (this does belong to B)

f(2) = (2 + 1)/(2*2 - 1) = 1 (this does belong to B)

f(3) = (3 + 1)/(2*3 - 1) = 4/5  (this does belong to B)

f(4) = (4 + 1)/(2*4 - 1) = 5/7  (this does belong to B)

So the range of f(x) is the set with all these outputs, which is:

Range: {-1, 0, 5/7, 4/5, 1, 2}

3. What is the difference between a vertex, a focus, and a directrix?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Explanation:

1.

A cone is a 3-dimensional object created by revolving a line about an axis that intersects that line. This figure is a "double-napped" cone. The point where the revolved line and the axis meet is the a.pex, or vertex, of the cone. Typically, we're concerned with a finite portion of the cone, from the vertex to a base that is a circle in a plane perpendicular to the axis.

A "conic" is a 2-dimensional figure that results from the intersection of a plane and a cone. There are four general categories, named according to the angle the plane makes with the axis and/or the side of the cone. These are illustrated in the attachment.

a circle - the plane of intersection is perpendicular to the axisan ellipse - the plane of intersection is at an angle between 90° and the angle of the side relative to the axis. Both an ellipse and a circle are closed figures.a parabola - the plane of intersection is at the same angle as the side of the cone. A parabola is a one-sided open figure.a hyperbola - The plane of intersection is at an angle between that of the side of the cone and the axis of the cone. The plane will intersect both parts of a double-napped cone producing a double-sided open figure.

Producing these at home can be an interesting project. A circle can be made using a compass.

An ellipse can be drawn using a pair of pins and a loop of string. The pins would be placed at the foci of the ellipse, and the string would constrain the drawing instrument (pen or pencil) to have a constant total distance to the two foci.

A parabola can be drawn on graph paper using coordinates derived from an equation for it. It can also be drawn using a compass and a set square by plotting points that are equidistant from the focus and a line that is called the directrix. If you have a physical cone-shaped object, you can cut it at an angle that will produce a parabola.

A hyperbola can be drawn on graph paper from an equation. It can also be drawn using a compass by plotting points that have a constant difference in their distance to the two foci, or by plotting points whose ratio of distance to focus and directrix is a constant. A physical cone-shaped object can be cut to produce a hyperbola.

2.

The general form equation for a conic is ...

  Ax² +Bxy +Cy² +Dx +Ey +F = 0

Usually, we're concerned with conics that have axes parallel to the coordinate axes, so B=0. The equation of an ellipse has A and C with the same sign. The equation of a hyperbola has A and C with opposite signs,

In standard form, the equations for figures centered at the origin are ...

ellipse: x²/a +y²/b = 1hyperbola: x²/a -y²/b = 1 (opens horizontally)hyperbola: y²/a -x²/b = 1 (opens vertically)

__

3.

The vertex of a conic is an extreme point on the (major) axis of the conic. The focus is a point used in the definition of the conic. The focus is "inside" the curve, on the axis of symmetry. The directrix is a line used in the definition of the conic. The directrix is "outside" the curve, perpendicular to the axis. The second attachment shows these for a parabola.

Answers

Answer:

Mean of sampling distribution = 50

Standard deviation of sampling distribution, = 0.625

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Mean, μ = 50

Standard deviation, σ = 5

Sample size, n = 64

The mean of sampling distribution, μxbar = population mean, μ

μxbar = μ

According to the central limit theorem, the sampling distribution converges to the population mean as the sample size increases, hence, , μxbar = μ = 50

Standard deviation of sampling distribution, σxbar = σ/√n

σxbar = 5/√64 = 5 / 8 = 0.625

h(t) - 16^2 + 88ft +9. How long will it take the rocket to reach its maximum height? What is the maximum height?
The rocket reaches its maximum height at ____ second(s) after launch.
(Simplify your answer.)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The position function for this is:

[tex]s(t)=-16t^2+88t+9[/tex]. We can use this equation to find the position (or height) of the rocket at ANY TIME during its flight. I could find out the height of the rocket at 3 seconds by plugging in a 3 for t and solving for s(t); I could find the height of the rocket at 12 seconds by plugging in a 12 for t and solving for s(t), etc.

The first derivative of position is velocity:

v(t) = -32t + 88.

If we are looking for the time the rocket reaches it max height, we need to remember from physics class that this happens when the velocity of the object is at 0. We set the velocity equation equal to 0 then and solve for t:

0 = -32t + 88 and

-88 = -32t so

t = 2.75 seconds. This means that 2.75 seconds after the rocket is launched, it reaches its max height. In order to find what that max height is we plug 2.75 into the position equation for t and solve:

[tex]s(2.75)=-16(2.75)^2+88(2.75)+9[/tex] to get that

s(2.75) = 130

The max height is 130 feet and it reaches this point at 2.75 seconds into its motion.

A triangle can be defined as a two-dimensional shape that comprises three (3) sides, three (3) vertices and three (3) angles.

Simply stated, any polygon with three (3) lengths of sides is a triangle.

In Geometry, a triangle is considered to be the most important shape.

Generally, there are three (3) main types of triangle based on the length of their sides and these include;

I. Equilateral triangle: it has all of its three (3) sides and interior angles equal.

II. Isosceles triangle: it has two (2) of its sides equal in length and two (2) equal angles.

III. Scalene triangle: it has all of its three (3) sides and interior angles different in length and size respectively.

In Geometry, an acute angle can be defined as any angle that has its size less than ninety (90) degrees.

Hence, we can deduce that the greatest number of acute angles that a triangle can contain is three (3) because the sum of all the interior angles of a triangle is 180 degrees.

Assume a random variable representing the amount of time it takes for a customer service representative to pick up has a uniform distribution between 15 and 20 minutes. What is the probability that a randomly selected application from this distribution took less than 18 minutes

Answers

Answer:

0.6 = 60% probability that a randomly selected application from this distribution took less than 18 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Uniform probability distribution:

An uniform distribution has two bounds, a and b.  

The probability of finding a value of at lower than x is:

[tex]P(X < x) = \frac{x - a}{b - a}[/tex]

The probability of finding a value between c and d is:

[tex]P(c \leq X \leq d) = \frac{d - c}{b - a}[/tex]

The probability of finding a value above x is:

[tex]P(X > x) = \frac{b - x}{b - a}[/tex]

Uniform distribution between 15 and 20 minutes.

This means that [tex]a = 15, b = 20[/tex]

What is the probability that a randomly selected application from this distribution took less than 18 minutes?

[tex]P(X < 18) = \frac{18 - 15}{20 - 15} = 0.6[/tex]

0.6 = 60% probability that a randomly selected application from this distribution took less than 18 minutes.
