In converting 20 inches to centimeters, what unit (omit the number) would
2 answers:
Answer:
inches
Step-by-step explanation:
When you use proportions, you multiply your amount by a ratio. In the numerator, it is the unit desired while in the denominator, it is the unit that you want to cancel. In this case, you want to go from inches to centimeters. The procedure is:
As we can see, the units in the denominator are inches.

Step-by-step explanation:
(a)
A recursive formula allows any term in the sequence to be found by adding the common difference d to the previous term.
Here d = - 4 , then recursive formula is
=
- 4 with a₁ = 2
(b)
The explicit formula for an arithmetic sequence is
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Here a₁ = 2 and d = - 4, thus
= 2 - 4(n - 1) = 2 - 4n + 4 = 6 - 4n ← explicit formula
(c)
Using the recursive formula
a₁ = 2
a₂ = 2 - 4 = - 2
a₃ = - 2 - 4 = - 6
Using the explicit formula
a₅ = 6 - 4(5) = 6 - 20 = - 14
a₁₀ = 6 - 4(10) = 6 - 40 = - 34
a₁₀₀ = 6 - 4(100) = 6 - 400 = - 394
