Answer:

The correct option is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence is called an arithmetic sequence if the difference between every two consecutive terms are same.

In sequence 1, 5, 8, 13, ...

$d_1=a_2-a_1=5-1=4$

$d_2=a_3-a_2=8-5=3$

Since $d_1\neq d_2$ , therefore the sequence 1, 5, 8, 13, ... is not an arithmetic sequence.

In sequence 2, 4, 8, 32,...

$d_1=a_2-a_1=4-2=2$

$d_2=a_3-a_2=8-4=4$

Since $d_1\neq d_2$ , therefore the sequence 2, 4, 8, 32,... is not an arithmetic sequence.

In sequence 25, 21, 17, 13, ...

$d_1=a_2-a_1=21-25=-4$

$d_2=a_3-a_2=17-21=-4$

$d_3=a_4-a_3=13-17=-4$

Since this sequence has common difference of -4 therefore the sequence 25, 21, 17, 13, ... is an arithmetic sequence.

In sequence 81, 27, 9, 3, ...

$d_1=a_2-a_1=27-81=-54$

$d_2=a_3-a_2=9-27=-18$

Since $d_1\neq d_2$ , therefore the sequence 81, 27, 9, 3, ... is not an arithmetic sequence.

Hence the correct option is 3.

That would be 25,21,17,13...

this is arithmetic with a common difference of -4.

In the coordinate plane, the point A, 4− 2 is translated to the point A′, 1− 5. Under the same translation, the points B, 7− 4 a

Inga [223]

Answer:

The coordinates of B' and C' are $B'(x,y) = (4, -7)$ and $C'(x,y) = (-1, -8)$ , respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the Linear Algebra, we define the translation of a given point as:

$O'(x,y) = O(x,y) + T(x,y)$ (1)

Where:

$O(x,y)$ - Original point, dimensionless.

$T(x,y)$ - Translation vector, dimensionless.

$O'(x,y)$ - Translated point, dimensionless.

If we know that $A'(x,y) = (1, -5)$ and $A(x,y) = (4,-2)$ , then the translation vector is:

$T(x,y) = A'(x,y)-A(x,y)$ (2)

$T(x,y) = (1,-5)-(4,-2)$

$T(x,y) = (-3,-3)$

If we know that $B(x,y) = (7,-4)$ , $C(x,y) = (2,-5)$ and $T(x,y) = (-3,-3)$ , then the translated points are, respectively:

$B'(x,y) = B(x,y)+T(x,y)$ (3)

$B'(x,y) = (7,-4) +(-3,-3)$

$B'(x,y) = (4, -7)$

$C'(x,y) = C(x,y) +T(x,y)$

$C'(x,y) = (2,-5) + (-3,-3)$

$C'(x,y) = (-1, -8)$

The coordinates of B' and C' are $B'(x,y) = (4, -7)$ and $C'(x,y) = (-1, -8)$ , respectively.

How can you determine if you need to use a combination or permutation to count the number of outcomes? Which will usually have m

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

Permutation : It is an arrangement of r elements out of n elements.

Combination : it is a selection of r element out of n elements .

Suppose we have a set

S={1,2,3}

If two elements are taken at a time then

Using permutation formula

Total number of outcomes= $3P_2$

Total number of outcomes= $\frac{3!}{(3-2)!}$

Total number of outcomes=3!= $3\times 2\times1=6$

Using combination formula

$\binom{n}{r}=\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}$

Total number of outcomes= $\binom{3}{2}=\frac{3!}{2!1!}$

Total number of outcomes= $\frac{3\times2!}{2!}$

Hence, total number of outcomes=3

Total number of outcomes determined by permutation have more outcomes.

Because permutation is an arrangement of elements therefore, it consider order of arrangement of element but combination is a selection of elements it does no consider order of elements

Arrangements of two elements out of 3 elements

{1,2},{2,3},{2,1},{3,2},{1,3},{3,1}

By using combination if two elements taken at a time then combination

{1,2},{2,3},{1,3}
