Given : f(x)=x2+q

By substituting q=0,2,3,4,−1.4,2,3

we can obtained the different forms of the function f(x)=x2+q.

q= 0 f(x) = x2

q= 2 f(x) = x2 + 2

q = 3 f(x) = x2 + 3

q = 4 f(x) = x2 + 4

q = −1.4 f(x) = x2 − 1.4

q = −2 f(x) = x2 − 2

There is given a graph of a parabola.

It is asked to determine a quadratic function in vertex form.

The quadratic function can be found by finding the vertex and applying the vertex form of the parabola formula.

Firstly, we can find the vertex from the graph

We know that vertex of any parabola is the point where the graph changes its shape.

The graph is changing shape at (−3,0)

so, the vertex is (h,k)=(−3,0)

Apply vertex form of the parabola formula: y=a(x−h)2+k

Plug vertex point into the formula

Mcgraw-Hill Textbook Answers

y=a(x+3)2+0

Now, we can select anyone point and find a

The point is (−1,−2)

Plug this point into the formula−2=a(−1+3)2+0

22a=−2

4a=−2

a=−1/2

Plug this value into the formula

y=−1/2(x+3)2+0

Hence, the quadratic function is y=−1/2(x+3)2+0

There is given a graph of a parabola.

It is asked to determine a quadratic function in vertex form.

The quadratic function can be found by finding the vertex and applying the vertex form of the parabola formula.

Firstly, we can find the vertex from the graph

We know that vertex of any parabola is the point where the graph changes its shape.

The graph is changing shape at (2,1)

so, the vertex is (2,1)

Apply vertex form of the parabola formula: y=a(x−h)2+k

Plug vertex point into the formula

y=a(x−2)2+1

Now, we can select anyone point and find a

The point is (1,5)

Plug this point into the formula

5=a(1−2)2+1

a+1=5

a=4

Plug this value into the formula

y=4(x−2)2+1

Hence, the quadratic function is f(x)=4(x−2)2+1

The function is given as

f(x)=0.5x2−7

It is asked to find x-intercepts of this function without graphing

It can be found by replacing f(x) as zero and solve for x

The function is f(x)=0.5x2−7

We can set f(x)=0 and solve for x

f(x)=0.5x2−7=0

0.5x2−7=0

Add both sides by 7

0.5x2=7

Divide both sides by 0.5

0.5x2/0.5=7/0.5

x2=14

Take square root on both sides

x=√14,​x=−√14

Hence, x-intercepts are x=√14,x=−√14

Mcgraw-Hill Textbook Answers

f(x)=−2(x+1)2=0

−2(x+1)2=0

Divide both sides by −2

−2(x+1)2/−2=0/−2

The function is given as f(x)=−1/6(x−5)2−11

It is asked to find x− intercepts of this function without graphing.

It can be found by replacing f(x) as zero and solve for x

The function is

f(x)=−1/6(x−5)2−11

We can set f(x)=0 and solve for x

f(x)=−1/6(x−5)2−11=0

−1/6(x−5)2−11=0

−1/6(x−5)2−11+11=0+11

−1/6(x−5)2=11

(−1/6(x−5)2)(−6)=11(−6)

(x−5)2=−66

Take square root on both sides

There is a negative value on the right side

And we know that square root of negative is always imaginary values

So, x-intercepts do not exist for this function.

Hence, x-intercepts do not exist for this function.

Given :- The equation of parabolay=7x2

To find :- The graph of the parabola and whether it has maximum or minimum value and also we have to find range of the function.

First we will plot the graph by comparing the graph of the parabola y=x2.

y=x2has vertex at origin because it is of form y=ax2 hence y=7x2 also has vertex at origin i.e.(0,0).

On comparing given parabola with standard equation we will get7>0 and 7>1 so the parabola will be upward and narrow than y=x2.

The required parabola is shown in graph in red color.

Pre-Calculus 11 Student Edition Chapter 3 Quadratic Functions 15

The range of the functiony=7x2 is{y∣y≥0,y∈R}.

To find the maxima or minima we will now differentiatey=7x2w.r.tx.

⇒dy/dx

=14x

⇒d2y/dx2

=14

⇒d2y/dx2>0

This means that function has minimum value.

The range of the parabola y=7x2 is{y∣y≥0,y∈R} and has minimum value.

Given :-y=1/6x2

To find:- The graph of the parabola and whether it has maximum or minimum value and also we have to find range of the function.

First we will plot the graph by comparing the graph of the parabolay=x2

y=x2 has vertex at origin because it is of form y=ax2 hencey=1/6x2 also has vertex at origin.

On comparing given parabola with standard equation we will get a=1/6>0,1/6<1 therefore the parabola will open upward and wider than y=x2.

Red color curve represent the required parabola.

Pre-Calculus 11 Student Edition Chapter 3 Quadratic Functions 16

The range of the parabola is{y∣y≥0,y∈R}.

To find whether the function has minimum or maximum value, we will take derivate of the function twice.

⇒dy/dx=1/3x

⇒d2y/dx2=1/3

⇒d2y/dx2>0

Hence function has minimum value.

The range of y=1/6x2 is{y∣y≥0,y∈R} and function has minimum value.

Pre Calculus 11 Mcgraw Hill Chapter 2.4 Solved Examples Page 157 Problem 17 Answer

Given :-y=−4x2

To find :-State the direction of opening, whether it has a maximum or a minimum value, and the range.

First we will plot the graph by comparing the graph of the parabola y=x2.

y=x2 has vertex at origin since it is of form y=ax2 hencey=−4x2 has vertex at origin and narrower than y=x2 sincea=−4<−1 and it will open downward sincea=−4<0.

The graph is shown below in red color.

Pre-Calculus 11 Student Edition Chapter 3 Quadratic Functions 17

The range of the function isy=−4x2 is{y∣y≤0,y∈R}.

To find whether the function has minimum or maximum value we will take derivate of the function twice.

⇒dy/dx

=−8x

⇒d2y/dx2

=−8

⇒d2y/dx2<0

Hence function has maximum value.

The parabolay=−4x2 opens in downward and has range {y∣y≥0,y∈R} and also has maximum value.

Given :- The equation of the parabola isy=−0.2×2

To find :-State the direction of opening, whether it has a maximum or a minimum value, and the range.

First we will plot the graph by comparing the graph of the parabolay=x2

y=−0.2×2 has vertex at origin since it is in the form ofy=ax2 . It will open in downward direction since a=−0.2<0 and wider than the parabolay=x2 because−1<−0.2<1.

The required graph of parabola is shown below in red color.

Pre-Calculus 11 Student Edition Chapter 3 Quadratic Functions 18

The range of the functiony=−0.2×2 is{y∣y≤0,y∈R}.

Take derivative of the function twice to determine whether it has maximum value or minimum value.

⇒dy/dx

=−0.4x

⇒d²y/dx²

=−0.4

⇒d²y/dx²<0

​Hence function has maximum value.

F(x)=−0.2x2 which opens downward has range{y∣y≥0,y∈R} and also it has maximum value.

Given :- The equations of the parabolas are y=x2,y=x2+1

To find :- The relation between given parabolas and sketch the graph of the second function in each pair, and determine the vertex, the equation of the axis of symmetry, the domain and range, and any intercepts.

As the coefficient of x2 is same in both the equation of parabola therefore second parabola i.e.y=x2+1 is as wide as first one.

Pre-Calculus 11 Student Edition Chapter 3 Quadratic Functions 19

But it has different vertex which can be determined by comparing the standard equation we will get the vertex of the parabolay=x2+1 as(0,1) so the graph of second parabola can be get by shifting the first parabola upward ony−axis by 1 unit. as shown in figure.

This graph is symmetric about y-axis so the equation of axis of symmetry is x=0.

The domain of the function f(x)=x2+1 is{x∣−∞<x<∞,x∈R} and the range of the function is given by{y∣y≥1,y∈R}.

The y- intercept is calculated by putting x=0 in​y=x2+1⇒y=1 and x-intercept is calculated by putting​y=0⇒x=√−1 which is imaginary so the second parabola does not cut x- axis.

The parabolay=x2+1 has vertex(0,1) ,y-intercept1unit,the domain of the parabola is{x∣−∞<x<∞,x∈R} and range is{y∣y≥1,y∈R} and the parabola is symmetric to the line x=0.

Also, the angle at C is 54°.

To find: The distance AB.

Use cosine law to find the required distance.

First, draw the diagram for better understanding.

Pre-Calculus 11, Student Edition, Chapter 2 Trigonometry 13

Use cosine law a2=b2+c2−2bccosA to find the distance AB. Herea=AB,b=35.5,c=48.8 and A=54°.

Given: In triangle ABC ,a=9,b=7 and ∠C=33.6°.

To find: The length of the unknown side and the measures of the unknown angles.

Use cosine law to determine the length of the unknown side and the measures of the unknown angles.

First, sketch the diagram of the triangle ABC.

Pre-Calculus 11, Student Edition, Chapter 2 Trigonometry 14

Now find the length of the side c by using cosine law. Substitute a=9,b=7 and ∠C=33.6° in the cosine law and simplify.

c2=a2+b2−2abcosC

c2=92+72−2(9)(7)cos33.6°

c2=81+49−126(0.832…)

c2=81+49−104.948…

c2=25.051…

c=√25.051…

c=5

​Now find the unknown angles of the triangle.

Substitute a=9,b=7 and c=5 in the cosine law and simplify.

cosB=a2+c2−b2

2ac/cosB=92+52−72/2(9)(5)

cosB=81+25−49/90

cosB=57/90

∠B=cos−1(57/90)

∠B=cos−1/(0.633…)

∠B=50.703°…

Thus the measure of∠B is approximately 50.7°.

Use the angle sum property of a triangle to find the measure of angle A

∠A+∠B+∠C=180°

∠A+50.7°+33.6°=180°

∠A=180°−(50.7∘+33.6°)

∠A=180°−84.3°

∠A=95.7°

Thus the measure of∠A is 95.7°.

Hence the length of side c is 5 and the measures of unknown angles are∠A=95.7° and ∠B=50.7°.

Given: In a triangle PQR,PQ=29,PR=28 and ∠P=52°.

To find: The length of the unknown side and the measures of the unknown angles.

Use cosine law to determine the length of the unknown side and the measures of the unknown angles.

For finding the unknown side, we will use the cosine law.

Applying cosine law, the length of p will be,

p2=q2+r2−2qrcosP

⇒p2=282+292−2×28×29×cos520

⇒p2=784+841−1624×0.6157

⇒p2=1625−999.8968

⇒p2=625.1032

⇒p=25.00206

Hence, p=25km (approx)

We will find ∠Q by using formula

cosQ=p2+r2−q2/2pr

⇒cosQ=252+292−282/2×25×29

⇒cosQ=625+841−784/1450

⇒cosR=0.84074

⇒R=cos−1/(0.84074)

 

⇒R=32.78  (approx)                  Using cosine inverse table

⇒∠R=330

For ∠S, we have

cosS=r2+t2−s2/2rt

⇒cosS=52+6.82−9.12/2×5×6.8

⇒cosS=25+46.24−82.81/2×5×6.8

⇒cosS=−11.57/68

⇒cosS=−0.17015

⇒S=cos−1(−0.170150)

⇒S=99.796 (approx)                    using cosine inverse table

Hence, ∠S=1000

We will use the following relation to find ∠T:∠R+∠S+∠T=1800

⇒330+1000+∠T=1800

⇒1330+∠T=1800

⇒∠T=1800−1330

First find the value of ∠B with the help of sinA/a=sinB/b.

Substitute 14 for a, 10 for b and 39°

for A into sinA/a=sinB/b.

sin39∘/14 =sinB/10

Simplify further by multiplying 10 both side.

So ∠B=27°, to the nearest degree.

Now use angle sum property to find the value of ∠C.

∠A+∠B+∠C=180°

39∘+27°+∠C=180°

∠C=180°−39°−27°

∠C=114°

Substitute ∠A=39°,∠C=114° and a=14 into sinA

a=sinC/c.

sin39∘/14=sin114°/c

Simplify further to find the value of c.

c=sin114/sin39°/14

c≈20.32

So, c=20,to the nearest unit.

We know that the x-axis has a total angle of 180°.

Now, COD clearly forms a right angle triangle that means ∠COD=45°

So,∠COD+∠COB=180⟹45°+∠COB=180

Pre-Calculus 11, Student Edition, Chapter 2 Trigonometry 6

∠COB=180°−45°=135°

Therefore, measure of ∠COB is 135°.

Pre-Calculus 11, Student Edition, Chapter 2 Trigonometry 8

Now, consider the right-angled triangle formed by the origin, the given point and the point (−5,0).

Using the definitions of the trigonometric ratios in a right-angled triangle, we have,

sinα=perpendicular/hypotenuse

sinα =12/√122+52

sinα =12/√144+25

sinα =12/√169

sinα=12/13

cosα=base/hypotenuse=5/√122+52

cosα =5/√144+25

cosα =5/√169

cosα =5/13

tanα=perpendicular/base

tanα =12/5

Mcgraw Hill Precalculus Textbook Answers

Now, from the figure, it is clear, θ=π+α

Then,

sinθ=sin(π+α)=−sinα=−12/13

Put tanθ=1/5 in the above identity to get,

sec2θ=1+(1/5)2 ⇒sec2

θ=1+1/25⇒sec2

θ=26/25⇒1/cos2θ

θ =26/25

⇒cos2θ=25/26

⇒cos θ=−5/√26 (Since cos θ<0)

Now, we have the identity,

To determine: the angle in standard position when the given angle is reflected in the x-axis.

Summary: We will reflect the angle of 60 degrees in x-axis that is we will subtract 60 degrees from 360 degrees and get the required angle.

On subtracting 60 degrees from 360 degrees, we have, 360−60=300.

Thus, the required angle when an angle of 60 degrees is reflected in x-axis is 300 degrees.

Hence, the required angle in standard position is 300 degrees.

Pre Calculus 11 Exercise 2.1 Step-By-Step Trigonometry Solutions Page 81 Problem 10 Answer

We are given the angle θ=60∘

We have to find standard angle in the y-axis and then in the x-axis after reflection.

Reflecting an angle of 60∘in the y-axis and then in the x-axis will result in a reference angle of 60∘in quadrant III.

The measure of an angle in standard position for quadrant III is 180∘+60∘=240∘

The measure of an angle in standard position for quadrant III is 240∘.

Pre Calculus 11 Exercise 2.1 Step-By-Step Trigonometry Solutions Page 82 Problem 11 Answer

Given that the tempo is adjusted so that the arm of the metronome swings from 45° to 135°.

We have to find what exact horizontal distance does the tip of the arm travel in one beat.

Find the horizontal distance a.

cos45°=adjacent/hypotenuse

1/√2=a/10

a=10/√2

a=5√2

Because the reference angle for 135° is 45°, the tip moves the same horizontal distance past the vertical position to reach B.

The exact horizontal distance travelled by the tip of the arm in one beat is 2(√5)×2=4√5  cm.

The exact horizontal distance travelled by the tip of the arm in one beat is 4√5 cm.

We have to find the third term of the series and  20th term is given as 524288 and 14th term is 8192.

We apply the general term formula for 20th and 14th term and find the values of r and t1 and then we get the value of third term.

Given that 20th term i.e. t20 = 524288

14th term i.e. t14= 8192

We use the formula for general term

For 20th term,  n = 20

tn =t1 /rn−1

524288 =t1/r20−1

524288 =t1/r19

solve for t1

we get t1 = 524288

r19…………..(1)

For 14th term, n = 14

tn =t1 /rn−1

8192 = t1 /r14−1

8192 =t1/r13 ……………(2)

put the value of t1

from ( 1 ) in ( 2 )

8192 = 524288

Mcgraw Hill Precalculus Textbook Answers

r19 ×r13

8192 = 524288/r6

r6= 524288/8192

r = 2

Substitute value of r in equation (1)

t1 = 524288/219

t1 =524288/524288

t1 = 1

Hence for finding third term we put n= 3, t1 =1 and r =2 in general term we get,

t3 =t1

r3−1

t3 = 1 ×22

t3= 4

We have to find third term of the geometric sequence whose 20th term is 524288 and 14th term is 8192.

We find 3rd term by applying general term formula.

For option B. 8 only , it does not match the answer calculated by general term formula.

For option C. + 4 or − 4,  it does not match the answer calculated by general term formula.

For option D. + 8 or − 8,  it does not match the answer calculated by general term formula.

In 1850’s British Columbia had a discovery of Gold. Later in 1896 the Klondike district of now known Yukon territory had a discovery of Gold which created a world wide rush in the demand and the industry of Gold.

The sequence of times when gold mines were discovered had a gap of on and average of 40 years.

The first term of this sequence can be assumed as 1856.

As the difference of the first and the second discoveries were about 40 years, assuming the discoveries in an Arithmetic Progression, we can assume that in next ten years, there might not be a great inventory of the production of Gold.Production of Gold has a big effect on the community as well as on the business, specially on the jewellery industry.

Gold is used in a huge amount to make fine ornaments as well as in recent days in clothings also.

Given : The sum of first 12 terms of an arithmetic series is 186.

The 20th term is 83.

To find the sum of first 40 terms , at first we have to find the first term a1 and the common differenced with the given information.

Lastly , by putting the values of n,a1,d in the given formula, we will get the required answer.

Since the 20th term is 83,we have :

a1+(20−1)d=83=>a1+19d=83

∴a1=83−19d

Sum of 1st 12 terms is 186, so :186=(12/2)[2(83−19d)+(12−1)d]

=>186=6[2(83−19d)+11d]

=>186/6

=166−38d+11d

=>31=166−27d

=>27d=166−31

=>27d=135

=>d=135/27

=>d=5

a1 = 83 − 19(5) = 83 − 95 = −12

a40 = −12 + (40 − 1)(5)

=> a40 = −12 + 39(5)

=> a40 = −12 + 195

∴ a40 = 183

S40 = (40/2)[2(−12) + (40 − 1)(5)]

S40 = 20[−24 + 195]

S40 = 20(171)

S40 = 3420

Hence, the indicated sum is 3420.

Given that a big square is given (as shown in the following figure) it is divided into two equal parts and one of the portions is shaded.

Then the unshaded portion is again divided in half and one of the halves is shaded.

This process is continued.

Pre-Calculus 11, Student Edition, Chapter 1 Sequences and Series

To find: A sequence that represents the area of the newly shaded region as a fraction of the entire region.

Let the total area be A square units.

The area of first shaded region = A/2

A=1/2.

Now, this half region is again divided into two halves, and one half is shaded, therefore area of 2nd shaded region is:

A/4

A=1/4

Similarly area of the third shaded region = 1/8

Area of fourth shaded region = 1/16

Area of fifth shaded region = 1/32

Therefore, the sequence is 1/2,1/4,1/8,1/16,1/32.

The answer is 1/2,1/4,1/8,1/16,1/32.

Given that, start with a square piece of paper draw a line dividing it in half, and shade one of the halves.

In the unshaded half of the square, draw a line to divide it in half, and shade one of the halves. Repeat this process.

We need to verify whether the sequence of these shaded regions is arithmetic, geometric, or neither.

For this, check whether a constant is added or multiplied to get the successive terms of the sequence.

Since we draw a line that divides the square as two equal parts, therefore each shaded region is half of its previous shaded region.

So 1/2 is multiplied by each term of the sequence to get the successive terms of the sequence.

Hence the sequence is geometric.

The sequence is geometric.

Given that, start with a square piece of paper draw a line dividing it in half, and shade one of the halves. In the unshaded half of the square, draw a line to divide it in half, and shade one of the halves. Repeat this process.

We need to verify whether it is an infinite sequence.

By ignoring physical conditions, we can continuously divide the square into two equal parts indefinitely.

As we repeat the process continuously again and again, the area of the resulting square approaches zero.

Hence the given sequence can be an infinite sequence.

Given that, start with a square piece of paper draw a line dividing it in half, and shade one of the halves. In the unshaded half of the square, draw a line to divide it in half, shade one of the halves. Repeat this process.

We need to write the conclusion that can be made about the area of the square that would remain unshaded as the number of terms in the sequence approaches infinity.

As we repeat the process of dividing the square into two equal parts by drawing a line continuously again and again, the resulting squares will get smaller and smaller and the area of the square that would remain unshaded approaches zero.

The area of the square that would remain unshaded approaches to zero.

Given function is y=(1/2)x.

We need to draw the graph of a given function using a graphing calculator and make a conclusion about the value of y=(1/2)x as x gets larger and larger.

For this, use the graphing calculator and input the given function.

The graph and the table of values is,

Pre-Calculus 11, Student Edition, Chapter 1 Sequences and Series 6 1

From the above table of values and graph, we can conclude that the value of y=(1/2)x

approaches to zero as x gets larger and larger.

The value of y=(1/2)x approaches to zero as x gets larger and larger.

Pre Calculus 11 Exercise 1.5 Step-By-Step Solutions Page 59 Problem 7 Answer

 We need to find if the value of (1/2)x can become equal to zero.

Assume that there exists some value at which the value (1/2)x equals zero and then show that the consequences of this are not possible.

This would imply that there exists no x where(1/2)x equals zero.

Precalculus Textbook Mcgraw Hill Answers

The graph of the functiony=(1/2)x is:

Pre-Calculus 11, Student Edition, Chapter 1 Sequences and Series 7

From the graph, we observe that the value (1/2)x approaches zero for greater values of x.

Suppose there exists a point say x1 at which the value of the function y=(1/2)x equals zero.

Then, x1 ≠ 0.

For if, x1=0, then,(1/2) 0=1, which is not equal to 0.

Therefore, x1>0 or x1<0.

Now,(1/2)x​1=0, where x1≠0

Raising both sides to the power of 1/x1, we get,

((1/2)x1)​1/​x​1=0​1/​x1

1/2=0, which is not possible.

Therefore, there exists no x where the value of (1/2)x equals zero.

Therefore, it is not possible for the value of (1/2)x to equal zero.

Enter the function into the calculator and use the table feature to find the sum Sx =1−(1/2)x for increasing values of x.

The value of the function Sx = 1−(1/2)x for increasing values of x is shown in the table below:

We observe that as x gets larger, the value of Sx approaches 1.

Therefore, as x gets larger, the sum Sx = 1−(1/2)x goes closer and closer to 1.

Given that the geometric series is 1/2+1/4+1/8+1/16+.… and the formula to determine the sum of this series is Sx =1−(1/2)x.

We need to find if the sum increases without limit.

The formula to find the sum of the geometric series

2+1/4+1/8+1/16+.…is S1 =1−(1/2)x.

The sum Sx=1+(−(1/2)x) increases without limit provided the amount being added to 1 which is−(1/2)x increases without limit.

Now, −(1/2)x increases without limit, provided (1/2)x decreases without limit.

Now, as x increases, the denominator of (1/2)x increases, as a result, the value of(1/2)x decreases below 1 but never becomes negative.

Therefore,(1/2)x does not decrease without limit.

Therefore, it is not possible for the sum to increase without limit.

Therefore, it is not possible for the sum Sx

=1−(1/2)x  to increase without limit.

Solutions For Pre Calculus 11 Chapter 1 Exercise 1.5 Sequences Page 59 Problem 11 Answer

We need to find the formula for the sum of an infinite geometric series, using the answer from parta.

The formula to determine the sum of a geometric series is Sx=a(1−rx)/1−r

Where a is the first term and r is the common ratio.

In an infinite geometric series,−1<r<1.

Now from part a, we have,rx approaches 0 as x becomes large when−1<r<1.

Therefore, as x gets large, the partial sum Sx

Approaches a/1−r.

Therefore, the sum of an infinite geometric series is S=a/1−r, where−1<r<1.

Number of participants in a tournament = 512

Therefore, in first round number of matches playedt1

=512/2

=256

In each round half the payers are eliminated, so the common ratio r=1/2

And the last term of the series will be final match, tn=1

By substituting these values in the expression, we can get the total matches played.

Expression for the sum of n terms of the geometric series,

Sn =rtn−t1/r−1

Here, tn=nth term of the series=1

t1=Matches played in first round=256

r=Common ratio=1/2

Substitute these values in the expression,

Sn=1/2(1)−256/1/2−1

Sn=−511/2−1/2

Sn=511

Total matches to be played with 512  participants will be 511.

To find :- The first term of the given geometric series.

By using both formulas we will calculate the first term and number of terms in series.

First we will find out number of terms by dividing both the given formula.

Sn/an=a(rn−1)/r−1

a(rn−1)⇒sn

tn=(rn−1)

(r−1)(rn−1)⇒33

48=(−2)n−1−3(−2)n−1⇒33/16

=−(−2−1/(−2)n−1)⇒33/16

Given; t1,t2,t3,t4,t5 in the geometric sequence.

⇒t1=8.1,t5

=240.1

To find the missing term: tn,t3,t4.

⇒ t4 = 240.1

⇒ 240.1 = 8.1(r)5-1

⇒ 240.1 = 8.1(r)4

⇒ 240.1/8.1= r4

⇒ 29.64 = r4

⇒ 2.3 = r

⇒ t2 = 8.1(2.3)2-1

= 8.1(2.3)

= 18.63

⇒ t3 = 8.1(2.3)3-1

= 8.1(2.3)2

= 8.1(5.29)

= 42.849

⇒ t4 = 8.1(2.3)4−1
