Since the geometric series has 6 terms, increases by a factor of 4, and has a sum of 1365, the value of the first term is 1.

The sum of a geometric series is given by

Sₙ = a(rⁿ - 1)/(r - 1) with r > 1 where

Now, since our Geometric Series has 6 terms, n = 6. Also, it increases by a factor of 4, so, r = 4 and has a sum of 1365, so Sₙ = 1356. So,we have that

Since we require the first term, a , making a subject of the formula, we have

a = Sₙ(r - 1)/(rⁿ - 1)

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

a = Sₙ(r - 1)/(rⁿ - 1)

a = S₆(r - 1)/(r⁶ - 1)

a = 1365(4 - 1)/(4⁶ - 1)

a = 1365(3)/(4096 - 1)

a = 4095/4095

a = 1

So, the value of the first term is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the original price was p, a price reduction would be p- the amount. Per the given answers, $275 is used for the reduction amount.

If the sample of bacteria is growing at an hourly rate of 15% continuously and the  bacteria began with 11 bacteria then there will be 244.178 samples bacteria after 21 hours.

Given growth of bacteria 15% ,bacteria at beginning 11.

We have to find the number of sample of bacteria after 21 hours.

We have to first form exponential function which shows the growth of bacteria in variable t.

Exponential function which shows the sum is y=P[tex]e^{rt}[/tex]

where P is initial amount ,

r is rate and

y is the sum

So in our problem P=11 and r=0.15

y=11*[tex]e^{0.15t}[/tex]

To find the  samples after 21 hours we have to put t=21.

y=11[tex]e^{0.15*21}[/tex]

y=11*[tex]e^{3.1}[/tex]

y=11*22.198  ([tex]e^{3.1}[/tex]=22.198 from e table)

y=244.178

Hence the samples after 21 hours will be 244 approximately.

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The equation we get is 10(1.5 + x) = 80, where x is the number of hours Sheila can afford to hire the babysitter.

b. Sheila can afford the babysitter for 6 hours and 30 minutes.

c. The equation we get is 15(1 + x) = 80, where x is the number of hours Sheila can afford to hire the new babysitter.

d. Sheila can afford to hire the new babysitter for 4 hours and 20 minutes, while the first babysitter was hired for 6 hours and 30 minutes.

Thus, Sheila can't afford the same amount of babysitting from the second sitter as she could from the first sitter.

a. We assume the hours affordable to Sheila be x hours.

Per hour charge of the babysitter = $10.

Time taken by the babysitter traveling = 1.5 hours.

Therefore, total chargeable time = 1.5 + x.

Therefore, the total charge by the babysitter = $10(1.5 + x).

This needs to be equal to the amount Sheila is willing to spend, that is, $80.

Thus, the equation we get is: 10(1.5 + x) = 80.

b. We are asked to determine the hours Sheila can afford to hire the babysitter.

We have got the equation 10(1.5 + x) = 80, where x is the hours Sheila can afford to hire the babysitter.

Thus, by solving this equation, we can determine the hours Sheila can afford to hire the babysitter.

10(1.5 + x) = 80,

or, 1.5 + x = 8,

or, x = 8 - 1.5 = 6.5 = 6 hours and 30 minutes.

Thus, Sheila can afford the babysitter for 6 hours and 30 minutes.

c. Per hour charge of the new babysitter = $15.

Time taken by the new babysitter traveling = 1 hour.

Therefore, total chargeable time = 1 + x.

Therefore, the total charge by the new babysitter = $15(1 + x).

This needs to be equal to the amount Sheila is willing to spend, that is, $80.

Thus, the equation we get is: 15(1 + x) = 80.

d. We are asked whether Sheila affords the same amount of babysitting from the second sitter as she could from the first sitter.

To determine this, we need to find the hours she affords from the second babysitter, for which, we solve the equation 15(1 + x) = 80 as  follows:

15(1 + x) = 80,

or, 1 + x = 80/15,

or, x = 80/15 - 1 = 65/15 = 13/3 = 4 hours and 20 minutes.

Sheila can afford to hire the new babysitter for 4 hours and 20 minutes, while the first babysitter was hired for 6 hours and 30 minutes.

Thus, Sheila can't afford the same amount of babysitting from the second sitter as she could from the first sitter.

No, they aren't equal.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amplitude, Period, Horizontal Shift and Vertical Shift of both graphs are as detailed below.

3)a. Amplitude is the distance between the center line and the positive or negative peak of the graph. Thus, the amplitude is 0.5.

b. The period is the time it takes for the graph to repeat or complete one cycle and in this graph, it is 3.

c. Looking at the graph, ideally the coordinate (3, -1.5) should have been on the y-axis which is at (0, -1.5). This means it was shifted by 3 units to the right side.

d. The positive peak should be equal to the negative peak but in this case, it is not so and as such the center should be on the x-axis which means that the graph was shifted down vertically by 2 units.

4) a. Amplitude is the distance between the center line and the positive or negative peak of the graph. Thus, the amplitude is 3 - 1 = 2

b. The period is the time it takes for the graph to repeat or complete one cycle and in this graph, it is 6.

c. Looking at the graph, ideally the coordinate (4, -1) should have been on the y-axis which is at (0, -1). This means it was shifted by 4 units to the right side.

d. The positive peak should be equal to the negative peak but in this case, it is not so and as such the center should be on the x-axis which means that the graph was shifted up vertically by 1 unit.

π × 12² × [tex]\frac{n}{360}[/tex] = 40π

Using the z-distribution, the confidence interval is given by: (11.95, 12.65).

The confidence interval is:

[tex]\overline{x} \pm z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which:

In this problem, we have a 90% confidence level, hence[tex]\alpha = 0.9[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]\frac{1+0.9}{2} = 0.95[/tex], so the critical value is z = 1.645.

The other parameters are given as follows:

[tex]\overline{x} = 12.3, \sigma = 1.5, n = 50[/tex]

Hence the bounds of the interval are:

[tex]\overline{x} - z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = 12.3 - 1.645\frac{1.5}{\sqrt{50}} = 11.95[/tex]

C) graph of a quadratic function with a minimum at 2.5, negative 2.25 and x intercepts at 1 and 4

Standard Form of a Quadratic Function: ax² + bx + c = 0, where a ≠ 0

Given function: x² - 5x + 4

⇒ a = 1, b = -5, c = 4

The minimum of a function is the lowest point of its parabola. We can use the following formula to find the vertex or the minimum of the function: [tex]x=\dfrac{-b}{2a}[/tex] . This will give us the x-value of the vertex, and we will need to solve for the y-value.

The vertex or minimum.

Step 1: Find the x-value of the vertex.

[tex]\\\implies x=\dfrac{-(-5)}{2(1)}\\\\\implies x=\dfrac{5}{2}=2.5[/tex]

Step 2: Find the y-value of the vertex by substituting 2.5 as the value of x in the given function.

[tex]\\\implies x^2 - 5x + 4\\\\\implies 2.5^2-5(2.5)+4\\\\\implies 6.25-12.5+4\\\\\implies -2.25[/tex]

Vertex: (2.5, -2.25)

The x-intercepts (roots).

We can use the Quadratic Formula to find the roots of this function.

Quadratic Formula: [tex]x=\dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex] when [tex]ax^2+bx+c=0[/tex]

Equation: x² - 5x + 4 = 0

⇒ a = 1, b = -5, c = 4

Step 1: Substitute the values of a, b, and c into the formula. 

[tex]\\\implies x=\dfrac{\bold{-(-5)}\pm\sqrt{\bold{(-5)^2}\bold{-4(1)(4)}}}{\bold{2(1)}}\\\\\implies x=\dfrac{5\pm\sqrt{\bold{25-16}}}{2}\\\\\implies x=\dfrac{5\pm\sqrt{\bold{9}}}{2}\\\\\implies x=\dfrac{5\pm3}{2}[/tex]

Step 2: Separate into two possible cases.

[tex]x_1=\dfrac{5-3}{2}\implies \dfrac{2}{2}\implies \boxed{1}\\\\x_2=\dfrac{5+3}{2}\implies \dfrac{8}{2}\implies \boxed{4}[/tex]
