here are the first four terms of a sequence. 1/2 4/3 9/4 16/5. find the nth term of this sequence.

Immediately, we can factor an x out of each term to simplify the polynomial.

x(x^2 + 2x - 24)

In doing this, we know the first zero will be x = 0.

Using the AC method, we can find the next two zeros.

x(x - 4)(x + 6)

The zeros of the polynomial function f(x) = x^3 + 2x^2 -24x are x = -6, 0, and 4.

The question requires finding the zeros of the polynomial function f(x) = x^3 + 2x^2 -24x. The zeros of this function can be found by setting the function equal to zero and solving for x. So, we have 0 = x^3 + 2x^2 - 24x. All terms have an 'x', so we can factor out 'x' to give: 0 = x (x^2 + 2x - 24). The quadratic formula (which is used for expressions of the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0) to solve x^2 + 2x - 24 = 0, we get x = -6 and x = 4. Therefore, the zeros of the function are x = -6, 0, and 4.

Answer:

Brand A = 21 heart-rate watches.

Brand B = 13 heart-rate watches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the number of Brand A heart watches and B be the number of Brand B heart watches.

We have been given that a nonprofit community health organization purchased 34 ​heart-rate watches for use at a wellness center.

We can represent this information in an equation as:

[tex]A+B=34...(1)[/tex]

We have been given that in a certain​ year, brand A of​ heart-rate watch cost ​$39.99 and brand B cost ​$59.99 and the organization spent ​$1619.66 for the​ watches.

We can represent this information in an equation as:

[tex]39.99*A+59.99*B=1619.66...(2)[/tex]

We will use substitution method to solve our system of equations.

From equation (1) we will get,

[tex]A=34-B[/tex]

Substituting [tex]A=34-B[/tex] in equation(2) we will get,

[tex]39.99*(34-B)+59.99*B=1619.66[/tex]

[tex]1359.66-39.99*B+59.99*B=1619.66[/tex]

[tex]-39.99*B+59.99*B=1619.66-1359.66[/tex]

[tex]20*B=260[/tex]

[tex]B=\frac{260}{20}[/tex]

[tex]B=13[/tex]

Therefore, the organisation purchased 13 heart-rate watches of brand B.

Now let us substitute B=13 in equation (1).

[tex]A+13=34[/tex]

[tex]A+13-13=34-13[/tex]

[tex]A=21[/tex]

Therefore, the organisation purchased 21 heart-rate watches of brand A.

ΔABC and ΔCBD are similar. Therefore we have the proportion:

[tex](x)(x)=(6)(2)\\\\x^2=12\to x=\sqrt{12}\\\\x=\sqrt{4\cdot3}\\\\x=\sqrt4\cdot\sqrt3\\\\\boxed{x=2\sqrt3}[/tex]

Answer:

640 kilocalories are there in this 2-cup serving.

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportion states that the two ratios or fractions are equal.

As per the given statement: There are 1600 kilocalories in 5 cups of dog food that mike gives his adult dog. Mike gives his puppy 2 cups of the same dog food.

Let x kilocalories are there in 2-cup serving.

then, by definition of proportion;

[tex]\frac{1600}{5} =\frac{x}{2}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 2 we get;

[tex]x = \frac{1600}{5} \times 2[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]x = 320 \times 2 = 640 kilocalories[/tex]

Therefore, 640 kilocalories are there in this 2-cup serving.

Answer:

1 and 3/4 days are equal to 42 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

42 hours = (42 hours) (1 day / 24 hours)

42 hours = 42/24 days

Simplyfing the fraction: Dividing the numerator and denominator by 6:

42 hours = (42/6) /  (24/6) days

42 hours = 7/4 days

42 hours = (4+3)/4 days

42 hours = (4/4+3/4) days

42 hours = 1 3/4 days

To determine how many days are equal to 42 hours, you divide 42 by 24 which results in 1.75. Therefore, 42 hours is equivalent to 1 and 3/4 days.

In this mathematics problem, we are asked to convert 42 hours into a measurement of days. To begin with, we know that 1 day equals 24 hours. Therefore, to convert 42 hours into days we will divide 42 by 24.

The result of this division is 1.75. In terms of a day fraction, this value represents 1 and 3/4 days. As such, we can say that 42 hours is equivalent to 1 and 3/4 days.

Answer: 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, if you buy 2 sweaters at full price (100%)

$48 x 2 = $96

"Buy one get one 1/2 off sale"´price

48 + (48/2) = 48 +24 = $72

So, the normal price for both sweaters (96) multiplied by a percentage is equal to the "buy one get one 1/2 off sale” price.

96 x =72

x =72/96 = 0.75  

Multiplying by 100 to obtain the percentage form

0.75 =75%

So, the sale price is %75 of the full price.

To obtain the percent discount.

100%-75% = 25%

This rounded number has three zeros. The number 38,469 rounded to the nearest thousand is 38,000.

To find the number of zeros in 38,469 when rounded to the nearest thousand, we first need to round the number appropriately. We look at the hundreds place (the third digit from the right), which is '4'. Since 4 is less than 5, we do not round up.

You would need 12 gallons of paint A. You can find this answer by finding what 60% of 20 is, and do that by multiplying 20 • (0.6). This is what gives you 12. Following that, you’ll need 3 gallons of C, and 5 gallons of B.

The value of x can be any real number because raising 1 to any exponent will always result in 1.

The question needs us to solve for x in the equation [tex](6 to the 0 power)^x[/tex]= 1. We know that any non-zero number raised to the 0 power is 1 (e.g.,[tex]10^0[/tex] = 1). Thus, 6 to the 0 power is 1 regardless of the value of 6. From this, we have[tex]1^x[/tex], which is still 1 for any value of x because 1 raised to any power is always 1. Hence, the equation remains true for any real number value of x.

To find the real zeros of the given function, set it equal to zero and solve the resulting equation.

Answer: q²x² - p³x + 3pqx + q = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a and B are the roots of x² - px + q = 0, then x = a and x = B

⇒ (x - a)(x - B) = 0

⇒ x² - ax - Bx + aB = 0

⇒ x² - (a + B)x + aB = 0

Comparing this to the given equation of x² - px + q = 0, we discover that

Next, given the roots for the new equation as [tex]x = \dfrac{a}{B^2} \quad\text{and}\quad\ x=\dfrac{B}{a^2}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]\bigg(x - \dfrac{a}{B^2}\bigg)\bigg(x-\dfrac{B}{a^2}\bigg)=0[/tex]

⇒ (B²x - a)(a²x - B) = 0

⇒ a²B²x² - a³x - B³x + aB = 0

⇒ a²B²x² - (a³ + B³)x + aB = 0

Let's look at each term individually:

1st term: a²B²x² = (aB)²x²   = q²x²  (since q = aB)

2nd term: (a³ + B³)x  cubic formula can be used

             = [(a + B)(a² - aB + B²)]x

              = [(a + B)(a² + (2aB - 3aB) + B²)]x

              = [(a + B)(a² + 2aB + B² - 3aB)]x

              = [(a + B)(a + B)² - 3aB)]x

              = [(   p   )(  p²     -  3 q      )]x      since p = a + B and q = aB

              = (p³ - 3pq)x       distributed "p" into p² - 3q

              = p³x - 3pqx       distributed "x" into p³ - 3pq

3rd term: aB = q       since q = aB  

Put it all together:

   q²x² - (p³x - 3pqx) + q = 0

⇒ q²x² - p³x + 3pqx + q = 0

Answer:

y = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

here m = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex], hence

y = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute (4, 9) into the partial equation

9 = 2 + c ⇒ c = 9 - 2 = 7

y = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x + 7 ← equation in slope-intercept form

Given : (5b - 9) - 3(8 - 26)

⇒ (5b - 9) - 3(-18)

⇒ (5b - 9) + 54

⇒ 5b - 9 + 54

Step-by-step explanation:

In a ski club fundraiser, the ratio of Italian hoagies sold to the total number of hoagies sold, when the numbers of Italian and roast beef hoagies are 42 and 53 respectively, is 42:95.

The student is asking for the ratio of Italian hoagies sold to the total number of hoagies sold at a ski club fundraiser. To calculate this ratio, one must add the number of Italian hoagies to the number of roast beef hoagies to determine the total hoagies sold. In this case, 42 Italian hoagies were sold, and 53 roast beef hoagies were sold, yielding a total of 95 hoagies sold. Thus, the ratio of Italian hoagies sold to total hoagies sold is 42:95. In ratio terms, this expresses that for every 42 Italian hoagies sold, there were 95 total hoagies sold.
