If a1=2 and an=2an-1 find the first 5 sequences

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The first 5 terms of the sequence are 2, 4, 8, 16 and 32.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

[tex]a_{1}[/tex] = 2

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = 2[tex]a_{n-1}[/tex]   -----------------(i)

To get the first 5 terms of the sequence, substitute in turn, n = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 into equation (i).

The first term (when n = 1) has been given as:

[tex]a_{1}[/tex] = 2

The second term (when n = 2) is given as:

[tex]a_{2}[/tex] = 2[tex]a_{2-1}[/tex]

[tex]a_{2}[/tex] = 2[tex]a_{1}[/tex]    (but [tex]a_{1}[/tex] = 2 )

=> [tex]a_{2}[/tex] = 2(2)

=> [tex]a_{2}[/tex] = 4

The third term (when n = 3) is given as:

[tex]a_{3}[/tex] = 2[tex]a_{3-1}[/tex]

[tex]a_{3}[/tex] = 2[tex]a_{2}[/tex]    (but [tex]a_{2}[/tex] = 4 )

=> [tex]a_{3}[/tex] = 2(4)

=> [tex]a_{3}[/tex] = 8

The fourth term (when n = 4) is given as:

[tex]a_{4}[/tex] = 2[tex]a_{4-1}[/tex]

[tex]a_{4}[/tex] = 2[tex]a_{3}[/tex]   (but [tex]a_{3}[/tex] = 8 )

=> [tex]a_{4}[/tex] = 2(8)

=> [tex]a_{4}[/tex] = 16

The fifth term (when n = 5) is given as:

[tex]a_{5}[/tex] = 2[tex]a_{5-1}[/tex]

[tex]a_{5}[/tex] = 2[tex]a_{4}[/tex]   (but [tex]a_{4}[/tex] = 16 )

=> [tex]a_{5}[/tex] = 2(16)

=> [tex]a_{5}[/tex] = 32

Therefore, the first 5 terms of the sequence are 2, 4, 8, 16 and 32.

the length of a rectangular yard is 4 feet more than the width. the perimeter of the yard is 208 feet. write the equation that represents the perimeter of the yard. let w represent the width. solve the equation. what are the dimensions of the yard?​

Answers

Answer:

Length = 54 ft.

Width = 50 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the rectangle be 'w'.

According to question ,

Length = w + 4

Perimeter = 208 ft.

We know that [tex]perimeter = 2(l + w)[/tex] where l = length & w = width

So,

[tex]2(w + 4 + w) = 208[/tex]

[tex] = > 2(2w + 4) = 208[/tex]

[tex] = > 2w + 4 = \frac{208}{2} = 104 [/tex]

[tex] = > 2w = 104 - 4 = 100[/tex]

[tex] = > w = \frac{100}{2} = 50[/tex]

Width = 50 ft.

=> Length = 50 + 4 = 54 ft.

In a series of 4 one day cricket matches, the runs scored by Pakistan and Australia are given below: (06 Marks) Match Pakistan Australia First 102 208 Second 202 192 Third 360 241 Fourth 276 203 Find: (i) What is the average score of Pakistan in one match? (ii) What is the average score of Australia in one match? (iii) Which team performed better?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Scores of Australia in all four matches starting from 1st 208, 192, 241, 203 respectively.

Similarly, scores of Pakistan in all four matches starting from 1st 102, 202, 360, 276 respectively.

The avg of  Pakistan in one match = (102+202+360+276)/4 = 235

The avg of  Australia in one match = (208+192+241+203)/4= 211

Since, the avg score of Pakistan is more than that of Australia, Pakistan performed better.

A company sells widgets. The amount of profit, y, made by the company, is related to the selling price of each widget, x, by the given equation. Using this equation, find out what price the widgets should be sold for, to the nearest cent, for the company to make the maximum profit.

y=-15x^2+801x-5900​

Answers

Answer:

The widgets should be sold for $26.7 for the company to make the maximum profit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the quadratic equation

[tex]f\left(x\right)=-15x^2+801x-59000[/tex]

As the leading coefficient is (-3), so the graph would be a downward Parabola.

Thus, the maximum profit would be at the vertex.

The selling price 'x' can be determined by determining the x-coordinate of the vertex.

In order to calculate the x-coordinate of the vertex, we can find this by

x = -b/2a

where a = -15 and b = 801

x = -801 / 2(-15)

x = -801/-30

x = 801/30

x = 267/10

x = 26.7

Therefore, the widgets should be sold for $26.7 for the company to make the maximum profit.

Answers

Answer:

7 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the side of square be x.

Perimeter of square = 4x

Diameter of circle = x

Radius of circle = x/2

Circumference of circle = 2 * 22/7 * x/2 = 22/7x

According to Question,

4x + 22/7x = 100

(28+22) / 7x = 100

50x = 700

x = 14

Hence, diameter of circle = 14 cm

Radius of circle = (14/2) cm = 7 cm

In triangle △WXY, XY ≅ WX and m∠X=38 Find m∠W

Answers

Answer:

[tex]71^{\circ}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since two sides of the triangle are equal in length, we can conclude that [tex]\triangle WXY[/tex] is an isosceles triangle. With this information, we can draw an isosceles triangle to find [tex]m\angle W[/tex]. Since the base angles of an isosceles triangle are equal, we can solve for [tex]m\angle W[/tex]:

[tex]38 + m\angle W + m\angle Y = 180[/tex] (Angle sum of triangle is [tex]180^{\circ}[/tex])

[tex]38+2(m\angle W) = 180[/tex] (Base angles of isosceles triangles are equal, there is an image attached to show that [tex]m\angle W[/tex] is one of the base angles)

[tex]2(m\angle W) = 142[/tex]

[tex]m\angle W=71^{\circ}[/tex]

Solve the equation below for x:


0.25(x - 13) = 7

Answers

Answer:

x=41

Step-by-step explanation:

0.25(x-13)=7

We move all terms to the left:

0.25(x-13)-(7)=0

We multiply parentheses

0.25x-3.25-7=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

0.25x-10.25=0

We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

0.25x=10.25

x=10.25/0.25

x=41

The solution to the equation; 0.25(x - 13) = 7 as given is; x = 41

According to the question;

We are required to solve for x in the equation; 0.25(x - 13) = 7

The solution to the given equation can be evaluated as follows;

0.25(x - 13) = 7

0.25x - 3.25 = 7

0.25x = 10.25

x = 41.
