Aaron is interested in biking because his friends ride a lot. He doesn’t want to spend a lot of money on his first good bike because he is not sure how much he
will like riding. Aaron figures he can always upgrade if he enjoys the sport. He
went to the bike shop and found their prices to be expensive for a beginner. Does
he have to pay retail to get a good bike? Explain

168

step-by-step explanation:

first off, we know that he drove 3.5 hours at a rate of 48 mph.

knowing that, we want to see how many miles he drove all-together.

in this case, we can just multiply 48 by 3.5.

48 * 3.5 = 168

step-by-step explanation:

part a. the differences are decreasing, so we know the sequence is not arithmetic. the ratios are constant (=3/4), so we know the sequence is geometric.

part b. from part a, we know the common ratio is 3/4, so each term is 3/4 of the one before. the initial term is the number of gallons at h=1.

g[h] = (3/4)·g[h-1]

g[1] = 384 . . . . initial value required for a recursive definition

part c. the general formula for a geometric sequence is

a[n] = a[1]·r^(n-1)

we have a[1] = 384, r = 3/4, and the term number given by h. the formula that follows is

g[h] = 384·(3/4)^(h-1)

part d. filling in the value and doing the arithmetic, we have

g[12] = 384·(3/4)^11 ≈ 384·0.042235136 ≈ 16.2183 . . gallons

part e. each gallon is 4 quarts, so

16.2183 gal × 4 qt/gal = 64.8732 qt

we are given polynomial 2x^2 +4x +7.

we need to determine the number of roots of the given polynomial using the fundamental theorem of algebra.

a) for the given polynomial 2x^2+4x+7, we have degree =2.

b) let us find the roots of the given polynomial.

2x^2+4x+7= 0
