This is not an arithmetic or geometric sequence. It has no constant velocity, acceleration, or even thrust. You COULD make a higher order function fit each data point, however until you can actually find a constant rate of change at the higher orders it is not certain in any way that that function would predict the next term...

dy/dx=-5, -2, 7, 1, -4, -1
d2y/dx2=3, 9, -6, -5, 3
d3y/dx3=6, -15, 1, 8
d4y/dx4=-21, 16, 7
d5y/dx5=37, -9
d6y/dx6=-46 *note that the data never showed a constant rate of change

From above it can be seen that we COULD create a function to fit all of the points, but there would be no certainty in any way that that function would accurately predict the next number in the sequence.

ax^6+bx^5+cx^4+dx^3+ex^2+fx+g=y

And that would be a tedious amount of work to create that matrix to find a function that is essentially useless in predicting the next number in the sequence with any certainty...

If I think I’m understanding it, the new members out of the 200 original would be adding 28% to the mix

Jamie just bought two boxes.The first box is square with each side measuring 10 units and is 4 units high.The second box is rect

MakcuM [25]

Step 1
find the volume of the square box
volume=area of the base*height
area of the base=10²-----> 100 units²
height=4 units
volume square box=100*4----> 400 units³

step 2
volume rectangular box=2*volume square box
volume rectangular box=2*400------> 800 units³

volume rectangular box=L*W*H
H=5 units
W=10 units
Volume=800 units³
800=L*10*5------> solve for L
L=800/(10*5)------> L=16 units

the answer is
the length of the rectangular box is 16 units

Vlad [161]

Answer:

3 1/3 cups of flour

Step-by-step explanation:

20/4 = 5

20 servings is 5 times 4 servings, so you need 5 times the amount of ingredients.

5 * 2/3 = 10/3 = 3 1/3

Answer: 3 1/3 cups of flour

A dentist is making identical dental care bags for patients using 56 tubes of toothpaste, 112 packets of floss, and 85 toothbrus

marin [14]

Answer : Greatest number of identical dental care bags the dentist can make with the least items leftover is 1.

Number of bags will be 2,4,3 respectively.

Explanation:

Number of tubes of toothpaste = 56

Number of packets of floss = 112

Number of toothbrushes = 85

So, Greatest number of identical dental care bags the dentist can make with the least amount of items leftover from toothbrush = H.C.F of 56,112, 85= 1 ( ∵ as they are coprime to each other )

Since there is no common factor among 56,112,85 but there is common factor between 56 and 112 i.e. 56 remaining bags from toothbrushes will be 85-56=29 .

So we consider 28 ,

Now, 56 can be written as 28×2

112 can be written as 28×4 and

84 can be written as 28× 3

So, there can be 28 bags in which all the three materials can be present and there is no leftover from toothpaste and floss but there is leftover from toothbrushes only as we consider 84 instead of 85 to get divisible by 28 so we get the common factor easily.

so, there will be 2 two bags for toothpastes and 4 bags for floss and 3 bags for toothbrushes.
