Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a1 = 6

an =  3 + 2(an-1),

Substitute n = 2 into the formula

a2 = 3 + 2(a1)

a2 = 3 + 2(6)

a2 = 3+12

a2 = 15

Hence the second term of the sequence is 15

Justin is working two summer jobs, making $8 per hour babysitting and $14 per hour lifeguarding. Last week Justin earned a total
alexdok [17]

Answer:

Justin worked as a babysitter  8 hours and worked as a lifeguard 2 hours last week

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> number of hours worked as a babysitter  last week

y ----> number of hours worked as a lifeguard last week

we know that

8x+14y=92 ----> equation A

x=4y ----> equation B

Solve the system by substitution

Substitute equation B in equation A

8(4y)+14y=92

solve for y

32y+14y=92

46y=92

y=2

Find the value of x

x=4(2)=8

therefore

Justin worked as a babysitter  8 hours and worked as a lifeguard 2 hours last week

Elliott has some yarn that she wants to use to make hats and scarves. Each hat uses 0.2 kilograms of yarn and
erastova [34]

Answer:

The equation are:

1) h + s = 20

2) 4h = 1s

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of hats Elliott made = h

Number of scarfs Elliott made = s

total number of items Elliott made = 20

h + s = 20 ..[1]

1 hat uses 0.2 kilograms of yarn

1 hat = 0.2 kg of yarn

Then h hats will use = 0.2h kg of yarn

1 scarf uses 0.1 kilograms of yarn

1 scarf= 0.1 kg of yarn

Then s scarfs will use = 0.1s kg of yarn

She wants to twice as much as yarn for scarves for hats:

2 × (0.2h kg of yarn) = 0.1s kg of yarn

0.4h = 0.1s

4h = 1s...[2]

The equation are:

1) h + s = 20

2) 4h = 1s

Translate triangle a by vector (-3/1)to give triangle b. Then rotate your triangle b 180 degrees around the origin to give trian
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

Rotation of triangle A across a point (1.5, -0.5) by 180°.

Step-by-step explanation:

Translation of a figure about a vector \binom{-3}{1} means translation of a figure by 3 units to the left on x-axis and 1 unit in the positive direction of the y-axis.

Rule for the translation will be,

(x, y) → [(x - 3), (y + 1)]

From the figure attached,

Vertices of the triangle A are A(1, -1), B(1, -4) and C(3, -4)

After translation new image points will be A'(-2, 0), B'(-2, -3), C'(0, -3).

After rotation of these image points 180° about the origin will be,

Rule for the rotation,

(x, y) → (-x, -y)

A'(-2, 0) → A"(2, 0)

B'(-2, -3) → B"(2, 3)

C'(0, -3) → C"(0, 3)

Therefore, A(1, -1) → A"(2, 0) is the single transformation.

Rule for this transformation which maps triangle C to A will be defined by,

Rotation of triangle A across a point (1.5, -0.5) by 180°.
