Answer:

\textsf{a)} \quad \textsf{Recursive Rule}: \quad a_n=5n-2

     \textsf{Explicit Rule}: \quad \begin{cases}a_1=3\\a_n=a_{n-1}+5\end{cases}

b)  4998

c)  explicit rule (see below for explanation)

d)  see below

Step-by-step explanation:

An explicit formula for an <u>arithmetic sequence</u> allows you to find the nth term of the sequence.

A recursive formula for an <u>arithmetic sequence</u> allows you to find the nth term of the sequence <em>provided </em>you know the value of the previous term in the sequence.

<h3><u>Part a</u></h3>

<u>Explicit Formula</u>

a_n=a+(n-1)d

where:

  • a_n is the nth term
  • a is the first term
  • n is the number of the term
  • d is the common difference

<u>Given sequence</u>:  3, 8, 13, 18, 23, ...

To find the <u>common difference</u>, subtract one term from the next term.

Therefore:

  • a = 3
  • d = 8 - 3 = 5

Substituting the found values of a and d into the formula to create a explicit rule for the given sequence:

\implies a_n=3+(n-1)5

\implies a_n=3+5n-5

\implies a_n=5n-2

<u>Recursive Formula</u>

a_n=a_{n-1}+d \quad \textsf{for }n\geq 2

where:

  • a_n  is the nth term
  • a_{n-1} is the term immediately before the nth term
  • d is the common difference

We already know the common difference our previous calculations.

Therefore:

\implies a_n=a_{n-1}+5

When giving a recursive rule we also have to define the <u>first term</u> of the sequence, as it is not part of the formula.  Therefore, the full recursive rule for the given sequence is:

  \begin{cases}a_1=3\\a_n=a_{n-1}+5\end{cases}

<h3><u>Part b</u></h3>

To find the 1000th term of the sequence, use the <u>explicit rule</u> and substitute n = 1000:

\implies a_{1000}=5(1000)-2

\implies a_{1000}=5000-2

\implies a_{1000}=4998

Therefore, the 1000th term of the sequence is 4998.

<h3><u>Part c</u></h3>

We used the explicit rule to find the 1000th term as this rule allows us to find the nth term of the sequence <em>without </em>having to know any previous terms.

<h3><u>Part d</u></h3>

The <u>disadvantage</u> of a recursive rule when compared to an explicit rule is that we need to know the <u>previous term</u> to find the nth term, whereas the explicit rule doesn't need this information.

Choose the function whose graph is given by:
adoni [48]

Answer: y = 0.5cos(x), choice A

The parent function y = cos(x) follows this same basic pattern of the curve shown, but it starts off at (0,1) as its highest point. This graph has its highest point to be half as high, so we multiply by 1/2 or 0.5

A circle with center at (12,−1) passes through (0,−1). Find the circumference and area of the circle in terms of p.
madreJ [45]

Answer:

C = 75.36

A = 452.16

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the radius r by finding the distance between (12,-1) and (0,-1) using the distance formula.

d = \sqrt{(12-0)^2 + (-1--1)^2} =\sqrt{(12)^2 + (0^2} =\sqrt{144+0} =\sqrt{144}=12

The radius is 12.

So the circumference of the circle is C = 2\pi r = 2\pi 12 = 24\pi = 75.36

So the area of the circle is A = \pi r^2\\A = \pi 12^2\\A = 144\pi\\A = 452.16
