what are the first 3 terms of the sequence represented by the expression n(n-2)-4

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

-5, -4, -1

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the terms of the sequence, you have to use the given expression.

n ( n - 2 ) - 4

Here,

n ⇒ term number,

Accordingly, let us find the first 3 terms in this sequence.

For that, replace n with the term number

When n = 1,

T₁ = n ( n - 2 ) - 4

T₁ = 1 ( 1 - 2 ) - 4

T₁ = -5

When n = 2,

T₂ = n ( n - 2 ) - 4

T₂ = 2 ( 2 - 2 ) - 4

T₂ = - 4

When n = 3,

T₃ = n ( n - 2 ) - 4

T₃ = 3 ( 3 - 2 ) - 4

T₃ = - 1

By selling a watch for Rs 1275, Javed lost 15%. At what price should he sell to make a profit of 10%

Answers

Answer: Rs. 1,650

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the original price of the watch.

If the watch is sold at Rs. 1,275, there is a 15% loss.

Assume the watch is x.

(1 - 15%) * x = 1,275

0.85x = 1,275

x = 1,275 / 0.85

x = Rs. 1,500

Now add a 10% markup on the original:

= (1 + 10%) * 1,500

= 1.1 * 1,500

= Rs. 1,650

At the end of 3 years, the account had earned $960 in simple interest. a. How much does she have in her account at the end of 3 years?b. At what annual simple interest rate did the account grow? C. How many more dollars would she have in her account if the interest rate were 1% greater?

Answers

Solution :

The amount invested by Yvonne = $ 4,000

Time of investment = 3 years

The simple interest earned by Yvonne in 3 years = $ 960

a). Therefore, the amount Yvonne earned by the end of three years is

= principal + interest earned

= 4,000 + 960

= $ 4,960

b). The formula for simple interest(S.I.) is given by :

   [tex]$S.I. =\frac{P.T.R}{100}$[/tex]

  or [tex]$R = \frac{SI \times 100}{P.T}$[/tex]

          [tex]$ = \frac{960 \times 100}{4000 \times 3}$[/tex]

          = 8%

c). Now if the interest rate is 1% greater, i.e. R = (8+1) = 9%

   ∴ [tex]$SI =\frac{P.T.R}{100}$[/tex]

      [tex]$SI =\frac{4000 \times 3 \times 9}{100}$[/tex]  

      SI = $1,080

Therefore, the amount at the end of 3 years with 9% rate of interest will be

  = 4000 + 1080

  = $ 5080

Thus, Yvonne will have 5080 - 4960 = $ 120 money more in her account if the rate of interest was 1% greater.

Answers

Since chad was charged 1 dollars for each hour for 6 hours, we can represent this as 1 x 6. Now subtract 6 dollars from the bill for the hours and it leaves the initial fee of $4 for rental.

Now check your work:

(1 x 6) + 4 = 10

Answer:

They would pay $28.

Step-by-step explanation:

4 x 3 = 12, 22-12= 10. $10 is initial fee.

6 x 3 = 18, 18+10= 28. $28 for 6 hours

A car ride is drawn on a coordinate plane so that the first card is located at the point by (5,10) what are the coordinates of the first car after a rotation of 270° about the origin

Answers

Answer:

There are two possible solutions:

Clockwise rotation

[tex]P'(x,y) = (-10,5)[/tex]

Counterclockwise rotation

[tex]P'(x,y) = (10, -5)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two possible answers: (i) Clockwise rotation, (ii) Counterclockwise rotation. Vectorially speaking, rotation of point of rotation of a point about another point of reference is defined by:

[tex]P'(x,y) = O(x,y) + r_{OP}\cdot (\cos (\theta_{OP}\pm \theta'),\sin (\theta_{OP}\pm \theta'))[/tex] (1)

Where:

[tex]O(x,y)[/tex] - Point of reference.

[tex]r_{OP}[/tex] - Length of the segment OP.

[tex]\theta_{OP}[/tex] - Direction of segment OP, measured in sexagesimal degrees.

[tex]\theta '[/tex] - Angle of rotation, measured in sexagesimal degrees.

Please notice that clockiwise rotation occurs when [tex]\theta = \theta_{OP}-\theta'[/tex] and counterclockwise rotation when [tex]\theta = \theta_{OP}+\theta'[/tex]. In addition, we define length and direction of the segment below:

[tex]r_{OP} = \sqrt{(x_{P}-x_{O})^{2}+(y_{P}-y_{O})^{2}}[/tex] (1)

[tex]\theta_{OP} = \tan^{-1} \frac{y_{P}-y_{O}}{x_{P}-x_{O}}[/tex]

If we know that [tex]x_{O} = y_{O} = 0[/tex], [tex]x_{P} = 5[/tex], [tex]y_{P} = 10[/tex] and [tex]\theta' = 270^{\circ}[/tex], then the coordinates of the first car after rotation is:

[tex]r_{OP} = \sqrt{(5-0)^{2}+(10-0)^{2}}[/tex]

[tex]r_{OP} \approx 11.180[/tex]

Please notice that original point is located at first quadrant of the Cartesian plane centered at origin, then the direction of the segment OP is:

[tex]\theta_{OP} = \tan^{-1} \frac{10-0}{5-0}[/tex]

[tex]\theta_{OP} \approx 63.435^{\circ}[/tex]

The two solutions are finally presented:

Clockwise rotation

[tex]P'(x,y) = (0,0) + 11.180\cdot (\cos (-206.565^{\circ}),\sin (-206.565^{\circ}))[/tex]

[tex]P'(x,y) = (-10,5)[/tex]

Counterclockwise rotation

[tex]P'(x,y) = (0,0) + 11.180\cdot (\cos (333.435^{\circ}),\sin (333.435^{\circ}))[/tex]

[tex]P'(x,y) = (10, -5)[/tex]
