FILL BLANKThe sequence a1, a2, a3, ..., ak, ... is defined by a1 = 1 and ak = ak-1 +3 for all integers k 2. What is the remainder when a2009 is divided by 9? (Enter your answer as an integer or a decimal in the answer box.Backspace to erase.)
Answer(s): A
The recurrence relation ak = ak-1 + 3 means each term increases by 3 from the previous one. Starting from a1 = 1, we have:a2 = a1 + 3 = 1 + 3 = 4a3 = a2 + 3 = 4 + 3 = 7a4 = a3 + 3 = 7 + 3 = 10a5 = a4 + 3 = 10 + 3 = 13...In general, the k-th term of the sequence is:ak = 1 + (k - 1) × 3 = 3k - 2Using the formula ak = 3k - 2, we calculate a2009:a2009 = 3 × 2009 - 2 = 6027 - 2 = 6025To find the remainder when 6025 is divided by 9, we perform the division:6025 ÷ 9 = 669 remainder 4Thus, the remainder when a2009 = 6025 is divided by 9 is 4.
FILL BLANKThe admission price for each child at a certain zoo is of the admission price for each adult. If the admission price for 10 adults and 3 children is $210.80, what is the admission price for each adult? (Enter your answer as an integer or a decimal in the answer box. Backspace to erase.)
The equation for the total cost can be written as:To combine these terms, we need a common denominator. The common denominator between 1 and 5 is 5, so rewrite 10x asNow, combine the terms on the left-hand side:62x = 210.80 × 562x = 1054
What was the range of the average amounts spent per visit at Mall Q in 1998 for the seven age-groups?
Answer(s): E
From the graph, the seven average amounts spent per visit are 39, 51, 60, 70, 72, 62, 48 dollars.Maximum = 72Minimum = 39Range = 72 - 39 = 33 dollars.
For the 45-54 age-group, the average amount spent per visit at Mall Q in 1998 was what percent greater than the corresponding amount for the 25-34 age-group?
Answer(s): C
For the 45 - 54 age-group the average spent per visit was $72.For the 25 - 34 age-group it was $60.Difference = 72 - 60 = $12.Percent greater = 12 ÷ 60 = 0.20 = 20%.
For the 18-24 age-group, the average amount spent per person at Mall Q in 1998 was closest to which of the following fractions of the corresponding amount for the 25-34 age-group?
Answer(s): D
Average per person = (average visits per person) × (average amount per visit)
