Which recursive formula can be used to represent the sequence 2,6,10,14,18...?

Mathematics

8 0

Answer:

a(1) = 2

a(n) = a(n-1)+4

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the given arithmetic sequence,

a1 is 2

a2 is 6

a3 is 10

a4 is 14

a5 is 18

and to get from a1 to a2 you have to +4, to get from a2 to a3 you have to +4 and so on.

In a reclusive formula you need to find two pieces of information:

1. The first term of the sequence

2. The pattern rule to get any term from the term that comes before it

Using the given sequence, the first term is 2 and the rule to get any term from its previous term is +4.

So, putting that information in the form of a recursive formula will read as the following:

an+1 = an+4

a1 = 2, n is greater or equal to 1 (n is an interger)

Which can be rearranged to

a(1) = 2

a(n) = a(n-1)+4

Help what is the measure of the angle x?
Schach [20]

Answer:

x = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a right angle which is 90 degrees. Part of the angle is 30 degrees, so the other measure is 60 degrees, which is the 3x.

Make an equation.

3x = 60

Divide both sides by 3

3x/3 = 60/3

x = 20

Question 3
hoa [83]

answer is (-7,2)

y = -x -5

y= x+9

Both equations have y on the left hand side

So we equate both equations

We replace -x-5 for  y in the second equation

-x -5 = x+9

Subtract x on both sides

-2x -5 = 9

Now add 5 on both sides

-2x = 14

Divide by -2 from both sides

x = -7

Now plug in -7 for x in the first equation

y = -x -5

y = -(-7)  -5= 7-5 = 2

So answer is (-7,2)

SVEN [57.7K]
24 feet long :)
All I did was I divided the 36 into 3 equal parts of 12, then doubled the 12 to make that longer piece 24 feet. This 24 foot piece would be twice as long as the other leftover 12 foot piece since 12x2=24
