==========================================================
Explanation:
We start with one block at the very left side. This is algebraically written as [tex]a_1 = 1[/tex]. The small subscript '1' means we're dealing with the first term, and that is set equal to 1. In other words, the first term is 1.
The second term is three since we have three blocks as the next figure down the line. So [tex]a_2 = 3[/tex]. We can then see that [tex]a_3 = 6[/tex] and [tex]a_4 = 10[/tex]
The sequence of the first four terms are: 1, 3, 6, 10.
The notation [tex]a_n = a_{n-1} + n[/tex] tells us "to get the nth term [tex]a_n[/tex], we add the previous term ([tex]a_{n-1}[/tex]) to the value of n".
For example, if we wanted the third term, we would add the second term a2 onto the value of n = 2. In order to know a2, we need the diagram or you would have to use the recursive formula to find it.
Furthermore, it means that to find the fifth term [tex]a_5[/tex], we do the following
[tex]a_n = a_{n-1} + n\\\\a_5 = a_{5-1} + 5\\\\a_5 = a_{4} + 5\\\\a_5 = 10+5\\\\a_5 = 15[/tex]
The fifth figure will have 15 small little blocks to it. You can draw this out by copying the fourth figure, and then adding 5 smaller blocks to the very bottom portion. The sixth figure is basically a copy of the fifth one, but we have six little blocks along the bottom. This is the "plus n" being applied in the recursive formula.
So the 6th figure will have 15+6 = 21 blocks in total while the 7th figure has 21+7 = 28 blocks. This points us to choice (3).
Side note: These are known as triangular numbers. Note how the gaps between consecutive values of 1,3,6,10,15,21,28 is +2,+3,+4,+5,+6,+7.
what initial value y=16 (0.75)x
Answer:
The initial value is;
y = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to get the initial value of y
Generally, for an exponential function,
we have the form as;
y = a•b^x
where the initial value is the value we have when x = 0
Looking at the given function, substituting x = 0
We have the function as;
y = 16(0.75)^0
y = 16 * 1
y = 16
So the initial value is 16
x^2 - 9x = x + 24 solve for x
Answer:
x = - 2, x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x² - 9x = x + 24 ( subtract x + 24 from both sides )
x² - 10x - 24 = 0 ← in standard form
(x + 2)(x - 12) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2
x - 12 = 0 ⇒ x = 12

Hello there!
Here, we want to use the Pythagorean Theorem: [tex]a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}[/tex].
For problem number 7, we plug 6 and 8 in for a and b. Like this:
[tex]6^{2} + 8^{2} = c^{2}[/tex]
Now we solve. [tex]6^{2}[/tex] is 36. [tex]8^{2}[/tex] is 64.
64 + 36 = 100
Then, we take the square root of 100 to get c.
[tex]\sqrt{100} = 10[/tex]
(There's something special about this triangle. If you want I'll tell you about it in the comments.)
For problem number 8, we do the same exact thing.
[tex]4^{2} + 12^{2} = c^{2}[/tex]
[tex]4^{2} = 16[/tex] and [tex]12^{2} = 144[/tex]
[tex]144 + 16 = 160[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{160} = 8\sqrt{10}[/tex]
I hope this helps!!

Rosa want to buy a new TV priced at 499.99 The TV is on sale for 15% off but the cashier informs her that if she applies for a store credit card she can have an additional 10% off. How much will Rosa pay after the discounts and 6% tax have been applied? Write and solve an equation to find the final price.
Answer:
$405,44
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation: 499.99 - (499.99 x 15/100) - 1/10[499.99-(499.99 x 15/100)] + 6/100{1/10[499.99-(499.99 x 15/100) = x
Steps: x = (15 x 499.99)/100 = $74.9985
499.99 - 74.9985 = $424,9915
x = (424,9915 x 10)/100 = $42,49915
424,9915 - 42,49915 = $382,49235
x = $22,949541
382,49235 + 22,949541 = $405,441891
That can be rewritten as $405,44.
I hope that helped :)

A movie theater sells popcorn in bags of different sizes. The table shows the volume of popcorn and the price of the bag. If the theater wanted to offer a 60-ounce bag of popcorn, what would be a good price? Explain your reasoning
Answer:
For a volume of 60 ounces, the appropriate price is $16
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly, we need to determine the relationship between volume of popcorn and the price of bag.
Let us try and see if there is a linear relationship
A linear model is of the form ;
y = mx + b
where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
While the price represents the y axis values, the volume represents the x axis values
For the slope;
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (13.6-11)/(48-35) = 2.6/13 = 0.2
So we have the slope value as 0.2
the equation is;
y = 0.2x + b
to get b, substitute any value of (x,y)
6 = 0.2(10) + b
6 = 2 + b
b = 6-2 = 4
If we had substituted (20,8)
8 = 0.2(20) + b
8 = 4 + b
b = 4
if (48,13.6)
13.6 = 48(0.2) + b
13.6 = 9.6 + b
b = 13.6-9.6
b = 4
Hence we have established linear relationship between the volume in ounces and the price in $
So we have this as
Price = 0.2(volume) + 4
So for volume of 60 ounces;
Price = 0.2(60) + 4
price = 12 + 4
price = $16
The reason why this is appropriate is because it follows the rule of the established linear relationship
Answer:
$16

The radius of a circle is 1 yard. What is the circle's circumference?
r=1 yd
Answer:
6.3 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
mathematically, to get the circumference of the circle, we will have to use the formula for the circumference of a circle

Step-by-step explanation:
Hey there!
In (a) part we can see that a person delivers approximately 120 newspapers in 3 hours. Kate will deliver 30 × 3 = 90 newspapers. So, (a) part is the answer.
In (b) part, a person delivers 40 newspapers in 4 hours, Kate delivers 30 × 4 = 120 newspapers. So, Kate is faster, (b) option cancelled.
In (c) a person delivers 110 newspapers in 4.5 hours. Kate will deliver 30 × 4.5 = 135 papers, that's again greater. Option (c) cancelled.
Option (d), we can easily cancel it out. But I'm showing the work; a person delivers 20 newspapers in 4 hours, Kate delivers 30 × 4 = 120 newspapers, much faster than the person.
Hence option (a) is the answer.
Hope it helps :)
Aiden invested $98,000 in an account paying an interest rate of 2 % compounded
continuously. Autumn invested $98,000 in an account paying an interest rate of 2%
compounded quarterly. After 11 years, how much more money would Autumn have in
her account than Aiden, to the nearest dollar?
Answer:
Aiden would have $67 more than Autumn.
Step-by-step explanation:
Aiden compounded continuously, which uses the formula: [tex]P(t)=P_oe^r^t[/tex]
Plugging in what we know about Aiden's investment: [tex]P(11)=98000e^0^.^0^2^*^1^1[/tex]
That gives us: 122115.5196
Autumn invested using regular compound interest, which has the formula: [tex]A=P(1+\frac{r}{t})^n^t[/tex]
Since Autumn's investment is getting compounded quarterly, n=4 because it gets compounded 4 times a year.
Plug in Autumn's investment: [tex]A=98000(1+\frac{0.02}{4})^4^*^1^1[/tex]
That gives us: 122048.5974
Now just subtract the two and round to the nearest dollar:
[tex]122115.5196-122048.5974=66.92215187[/tex]
OR
$67. Aiden would have $67 more than Autumn after 11 years.
9. Lines A and B are parallel lines. Find the measures of angles 1, 2 and 3.
Answer:
<1 = 33
<2 = 90
<3 = 57
Step-by-step explanation:
<3 = 57 because of alternate interior angles
<2 + <3 + 33 = 180
<2 + 57 + 33 = 180
<2 + 90 = 180
<2 = 90
<1 + <2 + 57 = 180
<1 + 90 + 57 = 180
<1 + 147 = 180
<1 = 33

Answer:
Your answer is 8.06.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since you're finding the hypotenuse of the triangle through Pythagorean theorem, you need to use the formula:
a² + b² = c²
Here, you have to remember that x is the same as c in the formula. c is the hypotenuse and x.
a is going to be your smallest leg, so in this case a = 4.
b is going to be your longest leg, so it is b = 7.
Now, you don't know what c yet is so you simply write it as:
4² + 7² = c²
Do the exponents.
16 + 49 = c²
Add.
65 = c²
Now you need to get the exponent away from the c. To do that, all you have to do is square root both sides.
√65 = √c2
Once you do that, you have your answer!
8.0622577483 = c
Now just simplify and you're done :)

Answer:
For the first one it is 5x+2
Step-by-step explanation:
(9x+5) - (4x+3) = ?
First you minus the x's together so,
9x-4x which would equal 5x
then you minus the 5 and 3 together so,
5-3 which would equal 2
then you put the 5x and the 2 together and you get
5x+2 :-)
For the rest of the problems, use this as an example!

Answer:
a + b = 780
Step-by-step explanation:
If we subtract the two equations we can ”eliminate“ a and b and find the value of z.
a-a = 0
b-b = 0
-10z = -700
z = 70
now we have to subistitute this value in the two equations
a + b -4(70) = 500
a + b + 6(70) = 1200
a+b - 280 = 500
a + b + 420 = 1200
If we simplify we have
a + b = 780
a + b = 780
