Here Are The First Four Terms Of A Quadratic Sequence.The Nth Term Of This Sequence Is An + Bn + C.1,

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a = 3, b = 1, c = - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute n = 1, 2, 3 into the n th term

a + b + c = 1 → (1)

4a + 2b + c = 11 → (2)

9a + 3b + c = 27 → (3)

Subtract (1) from (2) term by term to eliminate c

Subtract (2) from (3) term by term to eliminate c

3a + b = 10 → (4)

5a + b = 16 → (5)

Subtract (4) from (5) term by term to eliminate b

2a = 6 ( divide both sides by 2 )

a = 3

Substitute a = 3 into (4) and evaluate for b

3(3) + b = 10

9 + b = 10 ( subtract 9 from both sides )

b = 1

Substitute a = 3, b = 1 into (1) and evaluate for c

3 + 1 + c = 1

4 + c = 1 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

c = - 3

Then a = 3, b = 1 and c = - 3

Answer 2

The measure of a, b and c is  3, 1 and - 3 respectively.

What is a quadratic sequence?

A quadratic sequence is a sequence whose nth term is given by the general formula -

A{n} = an² + bn + c.

Given are the 4 terms of the quadratic sequence as 1, 11, 27 and 49.

Now, we can the following equations as -

A{1} = a + b + c = 1

a + b + c = 1

c = 1 - a - b              ........ Eq[1]

A{2} = 4a + 2b + c = 11

4a + 2b + c = 11

c = 11 - 4a - 2b           ........ Eq[2]

A{3} = 9a + 3b + c = 27

9a + 3b + c = 27

c = 27 - 9a - 3b               ........ Eq[3]

A{4} = 16a + 4b + c = 49

16a + 4b + c = 49

c = 49 - 16a - 4b             ........ Eq[4]

Equate Eq[1] and Eq[2] -

1 - a - b  =  11 - 4a - 2b  

1 - 11 = - 4a - 2b + a + b

- 10 = - 3a - b

3a + b = 10                ........... Eq[5]

Equate Eq[3] and Eq[4] -

27 - 9a - 3b = 49 - 16a - 4b  

- 9a - 3b + 16a + 4b = 49 - 27

7a + b = 22          .......... Eq[6]

We can write -

7a + 10 - 3a = 22

4a + 10 = 22

4a = 12

a = 3

and

b = 10 - 3a

b = 10 - 9

b = 1

At last -

c = 1 - a - b

c = 1 - 3 - 1

c = - 3

Therefore, the measure of a, b and c is  3, 1 and - 3 respectively.

What is a circle?

A circle is a two-dimensional geometry on the plane having a centre point and the circular line is drawn equidistant from the centre point.

In the unit circle, Ф is the angle between the terminal side and the positive part of the x-xis.

The terminal point on the positive part of the x-axis is (1, 0),which means Ф = 0° or 360° and cosФ = 1, sinФ = 0The terminal point on the positive part of the y-axis is (0, 1),which means Ф = 90° and cosФ = 0, sinФ = 1The terminal point on the negative part of the x-axis is (-1, 0),which means Ф = 180° and cosФ = -1, sinФ = 0The terminal point on the negative part of the y-axis is (0, -1),which means Ф = 270° and cosФ = 0, sinФ = -1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use Pythagorean theorem.

Hypotenuse² = base² + altitude²

5)  x²  = 12² + 6²

         = 144 + 36

  x²  = 180

x = √180

x = 13.42 ft

6) 25² = x² + 19²

625 = x² + 361

625 - 361 = x²

x² = 264

x = √264

x = 16.25 m

7)  x² = 7² + 576

        = 49 + 576

        = 625

x = √625

x = 25 in

8)  2.5² = 2²+ x²

6.25 = 4 + x²

6.25 - 4 = x²

x² = 2.25

x = √2.25

2/5 of a number is 40. What is 1/10 of the number

Please help me

Answers

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

1/10 of the number is 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 40 is 2/5 of this unknown number, so 4/5 would be 80. Then, to fill up the other 1/5, we must split 40 into half.

1/2 of the number 40 is equal to the number 20.

80 + 20 = 100, so 5/5 would be equal to 100.

Now, we have to find one tenth of the number 100.

1/10 of the number 100 is the number 10. (1/10 of 100 = 10)

The answer to the question is 10.

Crazy cakes makes wedding cakes and birthday cakes. One week they made 2 wedding cakes and 5 birthday cakes and made $500. The next week they made 1 wedding cake and 7 birthday cakes but only made $430. What is the cost of a wedding cake? What is the cost of a birthday cake?

Answers

Answer:

Cost of Wedding cakes = x = $150

Cost of Birthday cakes = y = $40

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us represent:

Cost of Wedding cakes = x

Cost of Birthday cakes = y

Crazy cakes makes wedding cakes and birthday cakes. One week they made 2 wedding cakes and 5 birthday cakes and made $500.

2x + 5y = 500..... Equation 1

The next week they made 1 wedding cake and 7 birthday cakes but only made $430.

x + 7y = 430..... Equation 2

x = 430 - 7y

We substitute 430 - 7y for x in Equation 1

2x + 5y = 500..... Equation 1

2(430 - 7y ) + 5y = 500

860 - 14y + 5y = 500

860 - 500 = 14y - 5y

360 = 9y

y = 360/9

y = $40

Solving for x

x = 430 - 7y

x = 430 - 7(40)

x = 430 - 280

x = $150

Therefore:

Cost of Wedding cakes = x = $150

Cost of Birthday cakes = y = $40

Find the set of values of x for which x^2-x-6>0 and 10-2x<5

Answers

Answer:

No Solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

For starters, here are our two equations:

[tex](x^2-x-6)>0[/tex]

[tex]10-2x<5[/tex]

The first option is to solve for x in our second equation. First, we add 2x to both sides to get [tex]10<5+2x[/tex]. Then, we subtract 5 from both sides to get [tex]2x<5[/tex]. Finally, we divide both sides by 2 to get [tex]x<2.5[/tex]. We can plug in 2.5 into our second equation to test if it works. If it does not work, then anything less than 2.5 won't work, and the solution would be impossible.

Now we can plug in our values into our first equation. We now have the equation [tex]2.5^2-2.5-6>0[/tex]. We can simplify to get [tex]-2.25>0[/tex]. This test failed, so there are no solutions. A solution would be impossible.

At a pizza restaurant, Mason earns $7.25 per hour to deliver pizzas and $9.00 per hour to make pizzas. One week he earned total of $288.75. During that week he made pizzas for 20 hours. The equation 7.25h + 9(20) = 288.75 could be used to find h, the number of hours he spent delivering pizzas. How many hours that he spent delivering pizzas?

Answers

7.25h + 9(20) = 288.75

Multiply 9 by 20:

7.25h + 180 = 288.75

Subtract 180 from both sides:

7.25h = 108.75

Divide both sides by 7.25

h = 108.75 / 7.25

h = 15

He spent 15 hours delivering pizzas.

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

9x20=180 288.75-180=108.75 108.75÷9=12.0833333333

Write the equation of the line, in slope-intercept form, that has a slope of -8/5and contains the point

Answers

Answer:

y = -8/5x + 23/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Complete question

Write the equation of the line, in slope-intercept form, that has a slope of -8/5and contains the point (6, –5)

The equation of a line in pint slope form is expressed as;

y - y0 = m(x-x0)

Given

m = -8/5

(x0, y0) = (6, -5)

Substitute into the formula

y - (-5) = -8/5(x-6)

y+5 = -8/5(x-6)

Multiply through by 5

5(y+5) = -8(x-6)

5y + 25 = -8x + 48

5y = -8x +48 - 25

5y = -8x + 23

y = -8/5x + 23/5

Hence the equation in slope intercept form is y = -8/5x + 23/5
