Answer: - 33

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the speed of scuba diver = 2.5 feet  per second

Thus, the distance covered by her in 7 second = 2.5 × 7 = 17.5 feet

But, According to the question,

She is 15.5 feet below the surface of water when she start swimming.

Thus, her total distance from the surface of water after 7 second

= Her distance from the surface when she start + the distance cover by her in 7 second

= 15.5 + 17.5 = 33 feet.    

Thus, -33 represents her location relative to the surface after 7 seconds when we take surface as x-axis.

2.5 × 7 = 17.5

15.5 + 17.5 = 33


The scuba diver is -33 feet below the surface of water after 7 seconds.

Function g can be thought as scaled version of f(x)=x^2
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

g(x)=-\frac{1}{4} x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph is reflected against the x-axis, meaning it is negative

Next, we see that the graph is stretched out, therefor we have a fraction

The fraction is -1/4

You can check by inputting the x values into the x variable.

What is the recursive rule for an=4n−1? a1=4;an=an−1−1 a1=3;an=an−1+4 a1=−1;an=an−1+4 a1=3;an=an−1−1
navik [9.2K]
Plug in n = 1 into the nth term formula
a(n) = 4n-1
a(1) = 4*1-1
a(1) = 3
So the first term is 3

The second term will be 7 because we add on 4 each time, as indicated by the slope of 4. This is also known as the common difference.

So the nth term is found by adding 4 to the (n-1)st term, in other words,
a(n) = a(n-1)+4

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

In summary, the answer is 
a1=3; an=an-1+4
which is choice B

Larry mixed 15 grams of salt with 210 grams of a 5% salt solution in water. What is the percent of salt in his new solution?
Olegator [25]
When the concentration of a solution is expressed in weight percentages, that is just equal to the mass of solute over the mass of the total solution. For a solution weighing 210 grams, 5% of it is salt. That is equal to

210*0.05= 10.5 g salt

The rest of the amount, determined by difference, is the amount of solvent which is water.

water = 210-10.5 = 199.5 g salt

To solve for the new concentration, you add up 15 g to the already existing 10.5 g of salt in the solution. The water, on the other hand, remains constant. 

Concentration = (15+10.5)/(210+15) = 0.1133 or 11.33%
