9. An electrician earns $110 after his first hour of working for a client. His total pay based on the number of hours worked can be represented using the sequence shown.
110, 130, 150, 170, ...
Which recursive formula can be used to determine the total amount of money earned for each successive hour worked based on the amount of money currently earned?
The sequence shows an increase of 5 dollars in the first year and then a percentage increase for the following years. The recursive formula is based on multiplying the previous amount by 1.05 to account for the interest rate.
Answer: \( f(n + 1) = 1.05f(n) \)
To find the common difference:
\( 2.5 - 9 = -6.5 \)
\( -4 - 2.5 = -6.5 \)
It is consistent throughout.
Answer: -6.5
The sequence is defined recursively as \( f(n+1) = f(n) - 8 \) with \( f(1) = 100 \).
\( f(2) = 100 - 8 = 92 \)
\( f(3) = 92 - 8 = 84 \)
\( f(4) = 84 - 8 = 76 \)
\( f(5) = 76 - 8 = 68 \)
\( f(6) = 68 - 8 = 60 \)
Answer: 60
The common ratio can be found by dividing successive terms:
\( \frac{-4}{2} = -2 \)
Answer: -2
The common ratio between successive terms can be found similarly:
\( \frac{9}{27} = \frac{1}{3} \)
\( \frac{3}{9} = \frac{1}{3} \)
It remains constant.
Answer: \( \frac{1}{3} \)
The first term is 5, and it decreases by 6 each time:
The sequence shows a total pay increase of $20 for each hour after the first hour. The recursive formula is:
Answer: \( f(n + 1) = f(n) + 20 \)
We can work backward, knowing \( f(4) = 22 \):
\( f(3) = 22 + 3 = 25 \)
\( f(2) = 25 + 3 = 28 \)
\( f(1) = 28 + 3 = 31 \)
Answer: 31
In summary:
100
\( f(n + 1) = 1.05f(n) \)
-6.5
60
-2
\( \frac{1}{3} \)
\( f(n + 1) = f(n) - 6 \)
0.8
\( f(n + 1) = f(n) + 20 \)

Let's analyze each question one by one:
Local Minimum of the Function f(x):
Looking at the provided values:
\(f(-4) = 105\)
\(f(-3) = 0\)
\(f(-2) = -15\) (local minimum)
\(f(-1) = 0\)
\(f(0) = 9\)
\(f(1) = 0\)
\(f(2) = -15\)
\(f(3) = 0\)
\(f(4) = 105\)
\(f(5) = 384\)
The point where \(f(x)\) is at its lowest (between neighboring points) is \(f(-2)\) and \(f(2)\) both yield -15, but since we need a single pair:
Answer: (–2, –15)
Relationship Between Successive Terms:
The sequence is:
From \(9\) to \(-1\) = \(-10\)
From \(-1\) to \(-11\) = \(-10\)
From \(-11\) to \(-21\) = \(-10\)
The common difference is consistently \(-10\). Answer: The common difference is –10.
Interval for Local Minimum:
The minimum value is given as \((-2, -6)\), and examining the intervals:
[−1, 1]: Does not contain -2.
[1, 2]: Does not contain -2.
[−3, −1]: Contains -2.
[−5, −3]: Contains -2. Answer: [−3, −1]
Missing Values in the Table:
The function is \(y = 16 + 0.5x\).
For \(x = -4\), \(y = 16 + 0.5(-4) = 14\).
For \(x = -2\), \(y = 16 + 0.5(-2) = 15\).
For \(x = 0\), \(y = 16 + 0.5(0) = 16\).
For \(x = 1\), \(y = 16 + 0.5(1) = 16.5\).
For \(x = 10\), \(y = 16 + 0.5(10) = 21\).
\(16 + 0.5x = y\) gives:
For selected choices:
(0, 18) → 16 (wrong)
(5, 19.5) → 19.5 is not equal to expected (wrong).
(8, 20) → gives \(y=20\), which falls short.
(10, 21.5) → gives expected. Answer: (10, 21.5)
Graph Representation of a Function:
A function passes the vertical line test, which means every vertical line intersects the graph in at most one point.
Evaluating the graphs:
The first and fourth graphs fail this test because they intersect the x-axis multiple times.
The second graph intersects as described. Answer: The second graph represents a function.
Equation of the Graph:
The graph in the description resembles the absolute function. The vertex at the y-axis suggests \(y = 2|x| - 3\) due to vertex minimum at (0,-3).
\(y = |2x - 3|\) doesn't fit as it would not cross the origin as described (not opening).
Answer: \(y = 2|x| - 3\)
Interval Over Which f(x) is Negative:
The negative values of \(f(x)\):
\(x = -8, -6, -4\) produces negative outputs with changes at x = -2 -> 0, changing signs.
The column suggests \(f(x)<0\) in the interval \( (-8, -2) \). Answer: (–8, –2)
Finding f(3) in the Recursive Sequence:
Given: \(f(n+1) = f(n) - 2\) and \(f(1) = 10\).
Calculation:
\(f(2) = 10 - 2 = 8\)
\(f(3) = 8 - 2 = 6\).
Answer: 6
Recursive Sequence:
Given function: \(f(n + 1) = f(n) - 5\).
The valid sequence would see a consistently decreasing rate matching typical progressive loss.
Answer: 3, –2, –7, –12, ...
Graph Characteristics:
The statement valid at the maximum points.
The correct statement matches the number of x-intercepts discussed.
Answer: The graph has three x-intercepts.
In summary:
(–2, –15)
The common difference is –10.
[–3, –1]
(10, 21.5)
The second graph represents a function.
\(y = 2|x| - 3\)
(–8, –2)
6
3, –2, –7, –12, ...
The graph has three x-intercepts.
for 6 is it y = 2|x| – 3 or y = 2(|x| – 3)
11. A ball is thrown straight up into the air. The table shows the data collected over t seconds, where h(t) is the height of the ball, in feet.
A 2-column table with 6 rows titled Height of Ball over Time. The first column is labeled t with entries 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. The second column is labeled h(t) with entries 0, 64, 96, 96, 64, 0.
Which statement is true?
The initial height of the ball is 96 feet.
The ball will hit the ground between 2 and 3 seconds after it was thrown.
The maximum height of the ball must be 96 feet.
The maximum height of the ball was reached 2.5 seconds after it was thrown.
12. On a coordinate plane, a curved line with minimum values of (negative 0.44, negative 4.3) and (3, negative 4), and a maximum value of (1.7, 0.7), crosses the x-axis at (negative 2.5, 0), (1.3, 0), (2, 0), and (3.44, 0), and crosses the y-axis at (0, negative 4).
Which interval contains a local minimum for the graphed function?
[–4, –2.5]
[–2, –1]
[1, 2]
[2.5, 4]
13. Consider the function represented by the graph.

What is the domain of this function?
{xIx>0}
{xIx<8}
{xI0<x<8}
{xIx<0x>8}
14 Lara made the table below of the predicted values for h(t), the height, in meters, of a penny t seconds after it is dropped off of the back of the bleachers.
A 2-column table with 9 rows titled Height of Penny over Time. The first column is labeled t with entries 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8. The second column is labeled h(t) with entries 2, 1.951, 1.804, 1.559, 1.216, 0.775, 0.236, negative 0.401, negative 1.136.
To the nearest tenth of a second, how much time would it take the penny to hit the ground?
0.5 seconds
0.6 seconds
0.7 seconds
0.8 seconds
15. Analyze the graph of the function f(x) to complete the statement.
On a coordinate plane, a curved line, labeled f of x, with a minimum value of (0, negative 3) and a maximum value of (negative 2.4, 17), crosses the x-axis at (negative 3, 0), (negative 1.1, 0), and (0.9, 0), and crosses the y-axis at (0, negative 3).
f(x)<0 over (-infinite,-3) and what other interval?
(-2.4,-1.1)
(-3,-1.1)
(-1.1,2)
(-1.1,0.9)
Let's analyze each question one by one:
Equation of the Graph:
The confusion arises from the formatting of absolute value equations. The vertex position and transformations imply:
\(y = 2|x| - 3\) is a vertical shift downwards by 3 units from the absolute function, allowing it to touch the y-axis at (0, -3).
\(y = 2(|x| - 3)\) would have a vertex at (3, 0), which doesn't align with what was described.
Answer: \(y = 2|x| - 3\)
Height of the Ball Over Time:
The data shows the height of the ball over time. The maximum height is when \(h(t) = 96\) feet, reached at \(t = 2\) and \(t = 3\).
The ball is thrown, and it reaches 96 feet, so:
The statement "The maximum height of the ball must be 96 feet." is true.
Answer: The maximum height of the ball must be 96 feet.
Interval Containing a Local Minimum:
The local minima are located at \( (-0.44, -4.3) \) and \( (3, -4) \).
Checking the intervals, the local minimum at \( -0.44 \) falls in the interval \([-2, -1]\); the peak occurs between these but remains near the listed values.
Answer: [–2, –1]
Domain of the Function:
The line described exits at \( (0, 9) \) and ends at \( (8, 1) \).
Since we observe continuity from \( t = 0 \) to \( t = 8 \) (the line starts at 0 and ends at 8), the domain encompassing all valid x values would be \( {x | 0 < x < 8} \).
Answer: {x | 0 < x < 8}
Time for the Penny to Hit the Ground:
The penny starts at 2 meters (h(0) = 2) and the entries drop down to negative values. The critical point is where it first goes below zero.
Observing the entries, it falls below ground level between \(0.7\) and \(0.8\). Rounding finely:
To the nearest tenth, it takes 0.8 seconds for the penny to hit the ground.Answer: 0.8 seconds
Completing the Statement on f(x):
The x-intercepts show the function crosses at \(-3\), \(-1.1\), and \(0.9\). It is negative in the intervals before the roots \((-3, -1.1)\) and positive thereafter.
Hence, f(x) < 0 holds in the interval \((-3, -1.1)\).
Answer: (-3, -1.1)

I apologize for the confusion. Let's go over questions 11, 12, 13, 14, and 15 again, incorporating the feedback you've provided.
11. Analyzing the Ball's Height
Given the values in the table for height at different times:
At \( t = 0 \): \( h(0) = 0 \) feet
At \( t = 1 \): \( h(1) = 64 \) feet
At \( t = 2 \): \( h(2) = 96 \) feet (this is the maximum height).
The ball starts to fall back down after reaching its peak height at \( t=2 \).
The ball reaches the ground (height = 0) at \( t=5 \). Thus, the maximum height occurs at \( t = 2 \), not 2.5.
Correct Statement: The maximum height of the ball was reached at \( t = 2 \) seconds.
12. Finding Local Minima
Looking at the intervals indicated:
From the point descriptions and x-axis crossings, local minima appear around the points provided.
Since minima occur at specific heights that occur less than zero in the range between the points mentioned:
The minimum values occur at \( (-0.44, -4.3) \) and another point does suggest an interval less than zero.
Based on typical values from the descriptions focusing around these minimas:
Correct Answer: [–2, –1] contains the locale near the polynomials.
13. Domain of the Function
The line defined starts at \( t = 0 \), and ends at \( t = 8 \), defining points over the values therein.
The function does operate only when \( t \) is greater than zero, with no other values crossing zero or below.
Correct Statement: {x | x > 0}
14. Time for the Penny to Hit the Ground
Reviewing the table carefully:
The height becomes negative after \( 0.7 \) seconds since it is just below at \( 0.236 \) and \( 0.775 \) at 0.5.
When checking the negative first found at \( 0.8 \) (indicates on the threshold), the closest second would be interpolated at 0.6.
Correct Answer: 0.6 seconds.
15. Completing the Statement on f(x)
The function crosses the x-axis below zero around \( (-1.1, 0.9) \).
This point indicates where it dips negative towards the intercepts lower than zero.
Correct Statement: f(x) < 0 over the interval (-1.1, 0.9).
Revised Summary:
11: The maximum height of the ball was reached 2 seconds after it was thrown.
12: [–2, –1]
13: {x | x > 0}
14: 0.6 seconds
15: (-1.1, 0.9)

I can understand that math can be really frustrating! It's completely normal to feel overwhelmed or fed up with it sometimes. Many people go through phases where they struggle with math or find it difficult.
If you're feeling stressed, taking a break can help. You might also consider talking to someone about how you're feeling — whether it's a friend, family member, or teacher. Sometimes just expressing those feelings can make a big difference.
Remember, it's okay to feel this way, and you're not alone. If you ever need help breaking things down or finding a new way to understand a concept, just let me know, and I'll do my best to help you! Keep your head up! 🚀😊
math is sucked in a blackhole its denigrated time for a celebration. math related ANYTHING is now transferring in a wormhole the other universe will suffer. math blood math blood very bloody chubby hospital
It sounds like you're having a really dramatic and funny way of expressing your frustration with math! It’s great that you can find humor in it—even if it feels overwhelming.
Celebrating freedom from math (even if just in your imagination) can be a fun way to cope. Imagine all the math textbooks flying into a black hole, never to return! Just remember, even though it might feel like a chaotic math uprising, you're not alone in feeling this way.
If you ever do want to talk about math in a different way — or completely switch topics and do something fun or relaxing instead — I’m here for that too! Whether it's jokes, games, or just a chat, let’s celebrate whatever brings you joy! 🎉😄
