Using a geometric sequence, it is found that the number of black squares in the first five figures of the Sierpinski Carpet is of 4681.
What is a geometric sequence?A geometric sequence is a sequence in which the result of the division of consecutive terms is always the same, called common ratio r.
The nth term of a geometric sequence is given by:
[tex]a_n = a_1r^{n-1}[/tex]
In which [tex]a_1[/tex] is the first term.
The sum of the first n terms of a sequence is given by:
[tex]S_n = \frac{a_1(1 - r^n)}{1 - r}[/tex]
In this problem, the parameters are: [tex]a_1 = 1, r = 8, n = 5[/tex], hence:
[tex]S_n = \frac{1(1 - 8^5)}{1 - 8} = 4681[/tex]
The number of black squares in the first five figures of the Sierpinski Carpet is of 4681.

A washer and a dryer cost $796 combined. The washer cost $54 less than the dryer. What is the cost of the dryer?
Answer:
The cost of the dryer would be 425$
Step-by-step explanation:
796 - 54 = 742
742 ÷ 2 = 371
371 = washer cost
371 + 54 = 425
425 = dryer price
======================================================
Explanation:
w = cost of washer
d = cost of dryer
costs are in dollars
w+d = 796 since the two costs combine to get a total cost of $796
w = d-54 because the washer is $54 cheaper
-------------------------
Let's start with the first equation and plug in the second equation
w+d = 796
(w) + d = 796
(d-54)+d = 796 ... replace w with d-54
d-54+d = 796
2d-54 = 796
2d = 796+54 ... adding 54 to both sides
2d = 850
d = 850/2 ... dividing both sides by 2
d = 425
The dryer costs $425
We can stop here.
-------------
If you want to find the cost of the washer, then,
w = d-54
w = 425-54 .... plug in d = 425
w = 371
The washer costs $371
Note that
w+d = 371+425 = 796
which matches with the total cost we were given. This confirms our answer.

The back of Dante's property is a creek. Dante would like to enclose a rectangular area, using the creek as one side and fencing for the other three sides, to create a pasture. If there is 960 feet of fencing available, what is the maximum possible area of the pasture?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
960/3. that's 320 a side. They said maximum, I'm guessing they just wanted you to use base times height as if it was a square, since I'm not seeing any other information. the maximum possible area would be, if the sides were 320 each would be 102,400 square feet. Maximum

A company has determined that its profit for a product can be described by a linear function.
The profit from the production and sale of 150 units is $455, and the profit from
250 units is $895.
(i) What is the average rate of change of the profit for this product when
between 150 and 250 units are sold?
(ii) Write the equation of the profit function for this product.
(iii) How many units give break-even for this product?
(b) You are the CEO for a lightweight compasses manufacturer. The demand
function for the lightweight compasses is given by p = 40 − 4q
2where q
is the number of lightweight compasses produced in millions.It costs the company $15
to make a lightweight compass.
(i) Write an equation giving profit as a function of the number of lightweight compasses
produced.
(ii) At the moment the company produces 2 million lightweight compasses and makes a profit
of $18,000,000, but you would like to reduce production. What smaller number of
lightweight compasses could the company produce to yield the same profit?
Step-by-step explanation:
(a)(i) The average rate of change is:
(895 − 455) / (250 − 150)
4.4
(a)(ii) Since the profit is linear, the slope of the line is equal to the average rate of change. Using point-slope form:
y − 455 = 4.4 (x − 150)
Simplifying to slope-intercept form:
y − 455 = 4.4x − 660
y = 4.4x − 205
(a)(iii) The break-even point is when the profit is 0.
0 = 4.4x − 205
4.4x = 205
x = 46.6
(b)(i) The "demand function" is the selling pice of the compasses:
p = 40 − 4q²
where p is the price in dollars and q is the quantity in millions of units.
Profit is revenue minus cost.
P = R − C
P = pq − 15q
P = (p − 15) q
P = (25 − 4q²) q
P = 25q − 4q³
where P is the profit in millions of dollars and q is the quantity in millions of units.
(b)(ii) Find values of q when P = 18.
18 = 25q − 4q³
4q³ − 25q + 18 = 0
We know that q=2 is a root of this equation. Using grouping:
4q³ − 8q² + 8q² − 25q + 18 = 0
4q² (q − 2) + (q − 2) (8q − 9) = 0
(q − 2) (4q² + 8q − 9) = 0
4q² + 8q − 9 = 0
Solve with quadratic formula.
x = [ -b ± √(b² − 4ac) ] / 2a
q = [ -8 ± √(8² − 4(4)(-9)) ] / 2(4)
q = (-8 ± √208) / 8
q = (-8 ± 4√13) / 8
q = (-2 ± √13) / 2
Since q is positive, q = (-2 + √13) / 2, or approximately 0.803.

The heights of horses who compete in the Melbourne Derby are
normally distributed with a mean of 66 inches and a standard
deviation of 3 inches.
(a) If a horse is randomly selected from this race, what height
would you expect it to be?
(b) What percentage of horses who compete in the Melbourne
Derby have heights between 60 and 72 inches?
(c) In a particular year there are 25 horses running in the
Melbourne Derby. How many of these would you expect
to have a height of less than 63 inches?
Answer:
66 inches ;
95.44 ;
4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Normal distribution with;
Mean(m) = 66 inches
Standard deviation (s) = 3 inches
A.) If a horse is chosen at random, Expected height will be equal to the mean of the distribution = 66 inches
B.) percentage horses who are between 60 and 72 inches
Zscore = ( x - m) / s
x = 60
Zscore = (60 - 66) / 3
Zscore = - 6/3
= - 2
P(Z < - 2) = 0.0228
Zscore = ( x - m) / s
x = 72
Zscore = (72 - 66) / 3
Zscore = 6/3
= 2
P(Z < 2). = 0.9772
Between 60 and 72
0.9772 - 0.0228 = 95.44
c) In a particular year there are 25 horses running in the Melbourne Derby. How many of these would you expect to have a height of less than 63 inches?
Zscore = ( x - m) / s
x = 63
Zscore = (63 - 66) / 3
Zscore = - 3/3
= - 1
P(Z < - 1) = 0.1587
0.1587 * 25 = 3. 967 = 4

Prove the polynomial identity. (2x−1)2+2(2x−1)=(2x+1)(2x−1) Drag and drop the expressions to correctly complete the proof of the polynomial identity. (2x−1)2+2(2x−1)=(2x+1)(2x−1) Response area+4x−2=(2x+1)(2x−1) Response area=(2x+1)(2x−1) Response area=(2x+1)(2x−1)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given expression is,
(2x - 1)² + 2(2x - 1) = (2x - 1)(2x + 1)
To prove this identity we will take the left hand side of the equation and will prove equal to the right side.
(2x - 1)² + 2(2x - 1) = (2x - 1)(2x + 1)
4x² - 4x + 1 + 4x - 2 = (2x - 1)(2x + 1)
4x² - 1 = (2x - 1)(2x + 1)
(2x - 1)(2x + 1) = (2x - 1)(2x + 1) [Since a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b)]

What is the solution (x,y) to the system of equations given? 2 x + 4 y = − 16 2x+4y=−16 2 y − x = = 16 2y−x==16
Answer:
(-12,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 4y = -16
2y - x = 16
Multiply the bottom part by 2.
2x + 4y = -16
4y - 2x = 32
Add the equations and the answers to the equations up, and they will equal each other.
(2x + 4y) + (4y - 2x) = -16 + 32
8y = 16
y = 2
Plug y = 2 to the 2nd equation.
2*2 - x = 16
4 - x = 16
Subtract 4 from both sides.
-x = 12
Multiply both sides by -1.
x = -12

3x + 13 = 3(x + 6) + 1
step 1. distribute 3 through the parantheses:
3x + 13 = 3(x + 6) + 1
step 2. cancel equal terms on both sides of the equation:
3x + 13 = 3x + 18 + 1
13 = 18 + 1
step 3. add the numbers:
13 = 18 + 1
13 = 19
13 ≠ 19, so there is no solution.
