A sequence is defined by the recursive function f(n + 1) = one-half(n). If f(3) = 9 , what is f(1) ?

Answers

Answer 1

The value of f(1) is 81

What is Recursive function?

Recursive Function is a function that repeats or uses its own previous term to calculate subsequent terms and thus forms a sequence of terms

Given:

f(n + 1) = 1/3* f(n)

f(3) = 9

let n=0

f(0+1) = 1/3 * f(0)

f(1) = 1/3 * f(0)

Let n=1

f(1+1) = 1/3 * 1/3*f(0)

f(2) = 1/9 * f(0)

let n=2

f(2+1) = 1/3 * 1/9* f(0)

f(3) = 1/27 * f(0)

Also, f(3) =9

So,

9 = 1/27 * f(0)

f(0) = 27 * 9

f(0) = 243

Now,

f(1) = 1/3 * f(0)

f(1) = 1/3/ 243

f(1) = 81

Ali had 3 times as many marbles as cho does. After cho gives 4 marbles to Ali, Ali has 18 more marbles than cho does. How many more marbles does cho have in the beginning

a. 5
b. 9
c. 10
d. 15

Answers

Answer:

d. 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A and C be the initial number of marbles Ali and Cho have, respectively.

We are told that:

A = 3C  [Ali had 3 times as many marbles as cho does]

We then discover that  

C-4 = A-18   [After cho gives 4 marbles to Ali, Ali has 18 more marbles than cho does]

How many more marbles does cho have in the beginning?

We have 2 equations and 2 unknowns (A and C).  That means we can likely rearrange one of the equations and isolate one unknown on the left, and then use that in the second equation.

The first equation already has one of the unknowns isolated (A) so I'll use that in equation 2.

Eq. 1:   A = 3C

Eq. 2:  C-4 = A-18

Use the definition of A from Eq. 1 (=3C) to replace A in Eq. 2:

Eq. 2:  C-4 = A-18

          C-4 = (3C)-18    [Replace A with 3C, as promised in E1q. 1]

        -2C = -14

            C=7

If C = 7, then from Eq. 1,  A = 21

In the beginning, Ali has 21 marbles and Cho has 7.

Cho has 15 more marbles than Ali in the beginning.

a. 5

b. 9

c. 10

and curry potato filling left. How much tuna filling did he make at first?
Give your answer as a mixed number in its simplest form

Answers

At first, he made [tex]2\frac{5}{8}[/tex] kg of tuna filling.

Mr Abdul made tuna and curry potato filling for some puffs.

3/5 of the filling he made was tuna and the rest was curry potato.

So, amount of curry potato = 1- 3/5 = 2/5

Ratio of tuna & curry potato = tuna : curry potato

                                               = 3/5 : 2/5  = 3 : 2

Let amount of tuna = 3x & amount of curry potato = 2x

After he used 1/8kg of the tuna filling and made another 3/4 kg of curry potato filling.

According to the question, he then had equal amounts of tuna filling and curry potato filling left.

So, 3x - 1/8 = 2x + 3/4

Multiplying 8 in both sides we get,

⇒ 24x - 1 = 16x +6

⇒ 24x - 16x = 7

⇒ 8x = 7

⇒ x = 7/8

So, 3x = (3×7/8) = 21/8 kg = [tex]2\frac{5}{8}[/tex] tuna filling at first.

Dixie lives in a $67,000 wood house in the country whose contents are valued at $12,000. She wants to know her monthly property insurance premium. Use the table above to calculate her monthly property insurance premium.

Answers

Without the table indicating the stated premium rates and applicable discounts, the monthly property insurance cannot be computed. Hence, on the assumption that the rate is 2.5% and the discount applicable is 7.5% the premium per month will come to $152.24

What is Property Insurance?

The simple definition of Property Insurance is, it is an insurance policy that covers a policyholder for the structure of a building and its contents against stated or agreed perils.

What is the calculation for the above?

Given (based on assumption) that the applicable annual rate is 2.5%

and that:

Value of Wooden House = $67,000Value of the contents of the House = $12,000Applicable discount = 7.5% of premium/annum

Hence annual premium will be:

= (67,000 + 12000) * (2.5/100) * 0.925

Annual Premium Payable = $1,826.89.............A

Recall that we are asked to derive the monthly Insurance premium.

This is thus given as: Answer in A/12

→  1,826.89/12

The function gives the mass, m, of a radioactive substance remaining after h half-lives. Cobalt-60 has a half-life of about 5.3 years. Which equation gives the mass of a 50 mg Cobalt-60 sample remaining after 10 years, and approximately how many milligrams remain?

Answers

The equation is [tex]f(t)=50(0.5)^{\frac {10}{5.3}}[/tex] and approximately 13.52  milligram remains

How to determine the equation?

The missing information in the question is:

[tex]f(t)=m(0.5)^{\frac th}[/tex]

When the mass is 50 mg, it means that:

m = 50

So, we have:

[tex]f(t)=50(0.5)^{\frac th}[/tex]

When 10 years remain in the life of the substance, it means that:

t = 10

So, we have:

[tex]f(t)=50(0.5)^{\frac {10}h}[/tex]

The half life is 5.3. So, we have

[tex]f(t)=50(0.5)^{\frac {10}{5.3}}[/tex]

Evaluate the equation

f(t) = 13.52

Which are the solutions of the equation ?

The given equation is, 4x²-12x+9 = 5

So, 4x²-12x+9 = 5

⇒ 4x²-12x+9-5 = 0

⇒ 4x²-12x+4 = 0

Comparing this equation with ax²+bx+c = 0 we get,

a = 4, b = -12, c = 4

Applying sridharacharya formula we get,

x = (-(-12)±√((-12)²-4×4×4))/(2×4)

Given inequalities:

No. the point (-1, 1) is not included in the solution area for the system.



How do we justify this mathematically?

Step 1 - Plug in (-1, 1) in to the first equation. where y = -1 and x = 1.

Hence,

-1 > -4(1) -1

4 +1 < -1

4 < 0 (This is False)

Step 2  - Plug in (-1, 1) in to the second equation. where y = -1 and x = 1.

-1 < (3/2)(1) - 1

-1 < 1/2 (This is true).

Thus (-1, 1) is only partially included in the solution area.)
