Answer:

A(n) = 19 - 7n

Step-by-step explanation:

12, 5, -2, -9,...

First term, a = 12

Common difference, d = a2 - a1

a2 = 5

a1 = 12

Common difference, d = a2 - a1

= 5 - 12

= -7

d = -7

A(n) = a + (n - 1)d

A(n) = 12 + (n - 1) -7

= 12 + (-7n + 7)

= 12 - 7n + 7

= 12 + 7 - 7n

= 19 - 7n

A(n) = 19 - 7n

Use the formula t=ln2/k that gives the time for a population, with a growth rate k, to double, to answer the following question.
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

  • k = 0.005
  • doubling time ≈ 139 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Matching the form

  A = A0·e^(kt)

to the given equation

  A = 8·e^(.005t)

we can identify the value of k as being 0.005.

  k = 0.005

___

The doubling time is given by the formula ...

  t = ln(2)/k = ln(2)/0.005 ≈ 138.63

It will take about 139 years for the population to double.

In ΔXYZ, x = 71 cm, y = 91 cm and z=71 cm. Find the area of ΔXYZ to the nearest square centimeter.
anyanavicka [17]

since its an isoscelies trangle, they probably wanted you to do base times height

make a 71-91/2-x x triangle

where x is the height of the triangle to the base 91 and 71 is the hypothenuse

and then do bh/2

or

use heron's formula

s= 71+91/2

area= \sqrt{(71+91/2)(71+91/2-71)(71+91/2-71)(71+91/2-91)}

have fun solving that

Victoria read a 160-page historical fiction novel followed by a science fiction novel of the exact same length. Her average read
postnew [5]

The answer is C: the average reading speed of the science fiction novel.

If x is her reading speed for the historical fiction novel, and her reading speed for the sci-fi novel is just two pages more than that of the historical fiction novel, then the equation to find out how fast she reads the science fiction novel would be x + 2, as you’re adding 2 to the reading speed of the historical fiction book (x)
