Given The Recursive Formula Below, What Are The First Four Terms Of The Sequence?Please Help As Soon

Answers

Answer 1

The first four terms of the sequence given the sequence definition are 17, 15, 13 and 11

How to determine the first four terms of the sequence?

From the question, we have the definition of the function that can be used in our computation:

f(n) such that

f(1) = 17

f(n) = f(n - 1) - 2 if n > 1

The above definitions imply that we simply subtract 2 from the previous term to get the current term

Using the above as a guide,

So, we have the following representation

f(2) = 17 - 2

f(2) = 15

Also, we have

f(3) = 15 - 2

f(3) = 13

Lastly, we have

f(4) = 13 - 2

f(4) = 11

Hence, the the first four terms are 17, 15, 13 and 11

What sum of money will amount to #5200 in 6 years at the same rate of interest (simple) at which #1706 amount to #3412
in 20years

Answers

The sum of money that will amount to 5,200 in 6 years at the same rate at which #1706 amounts to #3412 in 20 years is 4000.

What is the rate of simple interest?

The rate of simple interest for changing 1706 to 3412 in 20 years is this:

S.I = PRT/100

Since the principal amount doubled, we can call this a 100% increase.

Thus the rate in 20 years

= 100/20

=5%

Since the rate for the principal amount is 5%, we can apply the same in the second sentence which gives us:

5% × 6

= 30%

5200 = 130%X

X = 520,000/130

= 4,000

So, the sum of money that will amount to #5200 in 6 years at the same rate of interest (simple) as the initial figures is 4000.

prove: if a quadrilateral has consecutive angles that are supplementary, then it is a parallelogram.

Answers

A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if its adjacent angles are supplementary.

We are expected to demonstrate that a quadrilateral is a parallelogram if its adjacent angles are supplementary. Writing down what is given and needs to be supported will be our first step.

1) An ABCD quadrilateral is a given.

2) ∡A supplements ∡B, ∡B supplements ∡C, ∡C supplements ∡D and ∡D supplements ∡A.

To demonstrate: Parallelogram ABCD is a quadrilateral.

Consider AC and BD as evidence. The intersection of AC and BD is AB.

Two angles on the same side of the transversal AB are ∡A and ∡B.

A property states that two lines are parallel if a transversal cuts them and the interior angles on the same side of the transversal are additional.

Here, it is given that ∡A supplements ∡B.

⇒∡A+∡B=180∘

The lines AC and BD are therefore parallel to one another.

Now think about AB and CD. The intersection of AB and CD is AC.

Two angles on the same side of the transversal AB are ∡A and ∡D .

A property states that two lines are parallel if a transversal cuts them and the interior angles on the same side of the transversal are additional.

Here, it is given that ∡D supplements ∡A.

⇒∡A+∡D=180∘

The lines AB and CD are therefore parallel to one another.

Now, since both the pairs of opposite sides are parallel, ABCD is a parallelogram.

Hence proved.

Answers

The value of Warren Ford annuity due is $80,878.21

Define Future Value of an Annuity.

The future value of an annuity is the value of a group of recurring payments at a certain date in the future, assuming a particular rate of return, or discount rate. The higher the discount rate, the greater the annuity's future value.

Given,

Payment fund semiannually is = $1,700

Rate = 6% or 0.06

Time = 15 years

The future value is,

FVₙ =PMT( (1+i/m)ⁿ - 1 ) / (i/m) )

Where,

PMT = $1,700

i = 0.06

m = 2

n = 15 * 2 = 30 periods

Now, plug in the values

FV₃₀ =  PMT ( (1 + 0.06/2)³⁰ - 1 ) / (0.06/2) )

       = $1,700( (1.03)³⁰ - 1 ) / (0.03) )

Answers

X (the number that reach a live person) have a binomial distribution.

In this question we have been given when an opinion poll calls residential telephone numbers at random, only 20% of the calls reach a live person. You watch the random dialing machine make 15 calls, X is the number that reach a live person.

We need to state whether X have a binomial distribution.

20% of the calls reach a live person.

So, the probability that any individual call reaches a live person is 0.2

The sample size (n) = 15 calls

X represent the number of calls that actually reach a live person.

So there are 15 attempts, 15 calls that will attempt to reach a live person.

The probability that any one of those individual calls actually reaches a live person is 0.20 and X will represent the number out of those 15 calls that are placed actual represent the number of those calls that actually reached a live person.

Therefore, the X is a binomial random variable.

If roses cost $3 each and carnations cost $2 each, which inequality represents all possible combinations of x roses and y carnations?

Answers

The inequality represents all possible combinations of x roses and y carnations is 3x+2y≤30.

What is meant by inequality?

Different types of inequalities can be represented by a number of different notations. A relationship between two expressions or values that is not equal in mathematics is referred to as an inequality. To correct an inequality, take the following actions: Prior to subtracting any fractions, multiply each phrase by the sum of the least common denominators of all the fractions. Step 2: To make the inequality simpler, combine related terms on both sides. Step 3: To calculate the value of the unknown, subtract or add the amounts from the numbers on either side.

The cost of each rose flower is $3

The cost of each carnation is $2

The cost for x roses will be 3x$

The cost for y carnations will be 2y$

The overall cost must be less than or equal to $30

Therefore, 3x+2y≤30.

Hence, the inequality represents all possible combinations of x roses and y carnations is 3x+2y≤30.

In mathematics, division by zero is division where the divisor (denominator) is zero. Such a division can be formally expressed as a/0, where a is the dividend (numerator). In ordinary arithmetic, the expression has no meaning, as there is no number that, when multiplied by 0, gives a (assuming a ≠ 0); thus, division by zero is undefined. Since any number multiplied by zero is zero, the expression 0/0 is also undefined; when it is the form of a limit, it is an indeterminate form.

What is number line?

A number line is an image of numbers plotted on a straight line, either horizontally or vertically. We can compare numbers and execute simple arithmetic operations on them easily by writing the numbers down on a number line. The starting point of a number line is often regarded as zero (0). These numbers to the left of zero are all negative while the numbers just on right of zero are all positive. As a result, we can argue that on a number line, the value of numbers grows as we approach the right. The numbers on the right are therefore larger than the ones on the left, according to this statement.

In this number line the max point its marked is 2

simplify (1+i) ^18 using the demoivres theorem

Answers

Using De Moivre’s theorem, the complex number (1+i)¹⁸ simplifies to 512√2

How to simplify (1+i)¹⁸ using the demoivres theorem?

For a complex number of the form z = a + ib, its polar form is written as:

z = r(cosθ + isinθ)

Where, r = √(a²+b²) and θ = tan⁻¹(b/a)

De Moivre’s theorem => (cos x + i sinx)ⁿ = rⁿ cos(nx) + i sin(nx)

Given: (1+i)¹⁸

To simplify (1+i)¹⁸, first needs to convert it into its polar form

z = 1 + i

r = √(1²+1²) = √2 and θ = tan⁻¹(1/1) = π/4

polar form:

z = √2 (cos(π/4) + isin(π/4))

Thus, (1+i)¹⁸ = [√2 (cos(π/4) + isin(π/4))]¹⁸

Using DeMoivre’s theorem, (cos x + i sinx)ⁿ = rⁿ cos(nx) + i sin(nx):

[√2 (cos(π/4) + isin(π/4))]¹⁸ = (√2)¹⁸ (cos(π/4) + isin(π/4))

                                            = 512 (cos(π/4) + isin(π/4))

                                            = 512 ((√2)/2 + (√2)/2)

                                            = 512(√2)

Therefore, (1+i)¹⁸ = 512√2

200-84=116

Kate Sanders, a researcher in the department of biology at IPFW University, studied the effect of agriculture contaminants on the stream fish population in Northeastern Indiana (April 2012). Specially designed traps collected samples of fish at each of four stream locations. A research question was: did the differences in agricultural contaminants found at the four locations alter the proportion of the fish population by gender? Observed frequencies were as follows.

From the following obeservation done by Kate, the hypothesis that the population proportions is equal for all four locations is not true. Also, the population of male fish are not equal in all four locations and the p-value is greater than 0.10

What is a p- value or chi square test?

A chi square ( χ2) test is performed in order to find a co relation between two unrelated variables. The main objective of the test is to prove whether the relationship holds true or is just a product of mere chance. For example, if we are conducting a survey of two different paramters, first being the population of people who are married and the other about their educational qualififcation, we will get two distinct table of values without any significant corelation. But now if we wnt to establish a relationship, lets say that married people have less educational qualifications, we need to prove our statement by performing a chi square test. The final value can either be a null hypothesis which states that their is no convinving relationship betwwen the two paramters or can be a alternate hypothesis with significant corelation.

How de we tackle this specific problem with the test?

For this problem lets focus on the male fish population alone and perform the test:

                                                       Population (Observed)

                              A                      B                    C                 D           TOT

Male fish                49                   44                   49               39           181

Female fish            41                    46                   36               44           167

                              90                   90                   85               83           348

                                                        Population(Expected)

Male fish                 46.81              46.81               44.20           43.16

Female fish              43.18             43.18               40.79           39.83

χ2 = ∑[tex]\frac{(Obsereved-Expected)^2}{Expected}[/tex];

=[tex]\frac{4.79}{46.81} +\frac{7.89}{46.81} +\frac{23.04}{44.20} +\frac{17.30}{43.16}[/tex]

= 0.10+0.16+0.52+0.40 = 1.18

Now to calculate degree of freedom= (coulmn-1)(row-1)= 3×1= 3.

Looking at the reference table at 0.05 significance level, the value shows 7.815

Thus as our value of 1.18 is less than the given value, null hypothesis cannot be rejected.

Hence the population proportions are not equal at all four locations. Whether this conclusive difference in gender proportions is due to varied contaminants cant be answered with this single observation and further tests are needed to be performed to construct a well found connection.
