Answer 1

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The n th term of a geometric sequence is

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = a₁ [tex](r)^{n-1}[/tex]

where a₁ is the first term and r the common ratio, hence

[tex]a_{8}[/tex] = 6 × [tex](-1/3)^{7}[/tex] = 6 × - [tex]\frac{1}{3^{7} }[/tex] = 6 × - [tex]\frac{1}{2187}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{2}{729}[/tex]

Use The function f(x) is graphed below.
the graph of the function to find, f(6).

-2
-1

2

Answers

Answer:

f(6) = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since y is a function of x, that is y = f(x), f(6) implies that we shall be evaluating the value of y when the value of x is 6.

To do this we shall draw a vertical line, x = 6 and check where this line intersects with the graph of the function f(x)

The vertical line x = 6 intersects with the graph of the function f(x) on the horizontal line y = 2. The function f(x) assumes the value 2 for values of x between 4 and 8. Therefore,  f(6) = 2

Answer: Last option.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that input values of a function are the values of the variable "x" and output values of a function are the values of the variable "y".

By definition, in functions each input value have one and only one output value.

Then, find [tex]f(6)[/tex] you can see that the input value is [tex]x=6[/tex] and you need to find the corresponding ouput value (or "y")

You can observe in the figure attached that the value of "y" for  [tex]x=6[/tex] is  [tex]y=w[/tex], obtaining the point (6,2)

Therefore:

[tex]f(6)=2[/tex]

This matches with the last option.

John ran the​ 100-m dash with a time of 9.87sec. If this pace could be maintained for an entire 26-mi marathon, what would his time​ be? (Notice that 1 m ≈ 3.281 ft and 1 mi = 5280 ft.)

Hr____

Minutes____

Seconds____



Answers

Answer:

1 hour

8 min

49 sec

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

1 m=3.281 ft

1 mi=5,280 ft

Convert 26 mi to ft

26 mi=26*5,280=137,280 ft

Convert 137,280 ft to m

137,280 ft=137,280/3.281=41,840.90 m

using proportion

9.87/100=x/41,840.90

x=41,840.90*(9.87)/100

x=4,129.70 sec

Remember that

1 hour=3,600 sec

1 hour=60 min

1 min=60 sec

4,129.70 sec=4,129.70/3,600= 1.147 h

0.147*60=8.82 min

0.82*60=49 sec

therefore

1 hour

8 min

49 sec

John could maintain his 100-m dash pace for an entire 26-mi marathon, his time would be 1 hour, 8 minutes, and approximately 50 seconds.

First, we need to convert John's 100-meter dash time into a pace that can be extrapolated over the marathon distance. Given that John ran a 100-m dash in 9.87 seconds, we need to find out how many meters he runs per second. This would be 100 m / 9.87 s = 10.13 meters per second.

Next, we convert the marathon distance from miles to meters. As there are 5280 feet in a mile and 3.281 feet in a meter, there are 5280 / 3.281 = 1609.34 meters in a mile. The marathon distance is therefore 26 miles * 1609.34 meters/mile = 41842.84 meters.

Using John's pace, we can calculate the time it would take to run the marathon: 41842.84 meters / (10.13 meters/second) = 4129.64 seconds.

Finally, we convert the total seconds to hours, minutes, and seconds. There are 3600 seconds in an hour and 60 seconds in a minute:

Hours: 4129.64 sec / 3600 sec/hr = 1.147 hours (1 hour)Minutes: (4129.64 sec - 1 hour × 3600 sec) / 60 sec/min = 8.827 minutes (8 minutes)Seconds: 4129.64 sec - 1 hour × 3600 sec - 8 minutes × 60 sec = 49.64 seconds (approximately 50 seconds)

Therefore, if John could maintain his 100-m dash pace for an entire 26-mi marathon, his time would be 1 hour, 8 minutes, and approximately 50 seconds.

The function shown in the graph has its vertex in the point (-1, 0)

The transformation made to f (x) that moves its vertex one unit to the left is:

The population of Oak Forest is increasing at a rate of 2% per year. If the population is 53,768 today, what will it be in three years?

Answers

Answer:

56,994

Step-by-step explanation: multiply the population by 0.02, round it to the nearest whole number, and then multiply that number by 3 and add it onto 53,768

Final answer:

The population of Oak Forest in three years will be approximately 57,091.

Explanation:

To find the population of Oak Forest in three years, we can use the formula for exponential growth. The formula is: P = P0 * (1 + r)t, where P is the final population, P0 is the initial population, r is the growth rate, and t is the number of years. In this case, P0 is 53,768, r is 0.02 (2% as a decimal), and t is 3. Plugging these values into the formula, we get:

P = 53,768 * (1 + 0.02)3

Simplifying the expression inside the parentheses:

P = 53,768 * (1.02)3

Calculating (1.02)3:

P = 53,768 * 1.0604

Calculating the final population:

P ≈ 57,091

Therefore, the population of Oak Forest in three years will be approximately 57,091.

In the coordinate plane choose the grap with the conditions given.

Answers

Answer:

(1,9),(3,7),(5,5) (7,2)

Answer with explanation:

The sum of two distinct variables is 10.

  x + y=10

It is linear equation in two variables.

To plot this graph in two dimensional plane find two distinct points satisfying the equation.

x=0, gives , y=10 or , y=0 gives , x=10.

x=1, gives ,y=10 -1,→y=9

So,two ordered pairs lying in the coordinate system are , (0, 10) and (1, 9) or (10,0) and (1,9), you will get the equation of line.

Otherwise , you can Draw the graph of this function by writing the equation in Slope Intercept form which is as:

By writing the slope intercept form of line shows that , the line passes through , (10,0) and (0,10) means cutting x axis and y axis at these two points.

Triangle XYZ has sides XY=3”, YZ =4”, and XZ=5”. If angle Y is a right angle, and side YZ is opposite angle X , what is the tan of angle C ?

Answers

Final answer:

The tan of angle C in triangle XYZ is 0.8.

Explanation:

To find the tan of angle C, we first need to determine the values of angle C, side XC, and side ZC. In triangle XYZ, angle Y is a right angle, so angle C must be angle Z. Since side YZ is opposite angle X, side YZ is equal to side XC.

Using the Pythagorean theorem, we can find side XC:

XC = sqrt(XY^2 + YZ^2)

= sqrt(3^2 + 4^2)

= sqrt(9 + 16) = sqrt(25) = 5.

Now, we can calculate the tan of angle C using the formula tan(C) = opposite side (YZ) / adjacent side (XC).

Therefore, tan(C) = 4 / 5 = 0.8.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to remember that a right angle is an angle that measures 90 degrees.

By definition, when two or more lines intersect (or cross one another ) at a 90-degree angle, then these lines are called "Perpendicular".

Therefore, in this case, we know that these two lines intersects at a right angle (angle of 90 degrees), then, we can conclude that these lines are Perpendicular.

This matches with the third option.

Consider the function f(x)=x^2−6x−2 . Which equation shows function f written in vertex form? f(x)=(x−3)^2−5 ​ f(x)=(x+3)^2−11 ​ f(x)=(x+3)^2−5 ​ f(x)=(x−3)^2−11 ​

Answers

Answer:

f(x) = (x − 3)² − 11

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert to vertex form, complete the square.

f(x) = x² − 6x − 2

f(x) = x² − 6x + 9 − 9 − 2

f(x) = (x − 3)² − 11

We need to complete the square: if we add and subtract 11 from the expression, we have

[tex]f(x)=x^2-6x-2=x^2-6x-2+11-11=x^2-6x+9-11=(x-3)^2+11[/tex]

If VX is the bisector of V, find the perimeter of VUW.
A 35
B. 46
C. 58

Answers

Answer:

D. 70​

Step-by-step explanation:

If VX is the bisector of V, then UX=WX.

This implies that:

[tex]3z-4=z+6[/tex]

Group similar terms:

[tex]3z-z=4+6[/tex]

[tex]2z=10[/tex]

z=5

WU=2(z+6)

WU=2(5+6)

WU=2(11)=22 units

VW=VU=5z-1

Put z=5 to get;

VW=VU=5(5)-1

VW=VU=25-1

VW=VU=24

The perimeter of VWU=24+24+22=70 units

Answer:

Perimeter of triangle VUW = 70.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since VX is angle bisector and VX is perpendicular to UW then triangle UVX is congruent to triangle WVX using ASA property.

then UV=WV...(i) {corresponding sides of congruent triangle are equal.}

and UX=WX ...(ii)  {corresponding sides of congruent triangle are equal.}

then 3z-4=z+6

3z-z=6+4

2z=10

z=5

then UW=(3z-4)+(z+6)=3(5)-4+(5)+6=22

WV=5z-1=5(5)-1=24

UV=WV=24

Then perimeter of triangle VUW is

UV+WV+UW=24+24+22=70

Hence final answer is:

Perimeter of triangle VUW = 70.
