Distribute the 3a^n to all the other values then solve...
(3a^n*a^n)+(3a^n*a^n)+(3a^n*-1)
4a^2n+4a^2n-3a^n=
8a^2n-3a^n

Find the mean of the set of data: 10, 12, 29, 2, 19, 42, 23, 23
Softa [21]
To find mean, 
first add all the numbers together:
10 + 12 + 29 + 2 + 19 + 42 + 23 + 23 = 160

Then divide the total by the <em>amount </em>of numbers there are:

In this case, there are 8 numbers.

160/8 = 20 

20 is your mean for this set of data

hope this helps

A clothing store sold 4 times as many sweaters as coats. The difference in the sales was 300. How many of each were sold?
slava [35]
Sweater = 400
coats = 100
difference= 300
in an equation it would be
4x-x=300
so
3x=300
x=100
sweaters= 4x= 400
coats= x= 100

In an arithmetic sequence, a_17 = -40 and a_28 = -73. Please explain how to use this information to write a recursive formula fo
Vinvika [58]

An arithmetic sequence

a_1,a_2,a_3,\ldots,a_n,\ldots

is one in which consecutive terms of the sequence differ by a fixed number, call it <em>d</em>. This means that, given the first term a_1, we can build the sequence by simply adding <em>d</em> :

a_2=a_1+d

a_3=a_2+d

a_4=a_3+d

and so on, the general pattern governed by the recursive rule,

a_n=a_{n-1}+d

We can exploit this rule in order to write any term of the sequence in terms of the first one. For example,

a_3=a_2+d=(a_1+d)+d=a_1+2d

a_4=a_3+d=(a_1+2d)+d=a_1+3d

and so on up to

a_n=a_1+(n-1)d

In this case, we're not given the first term right away, but the 17th. But this isn't a problem; we can use the same exploit to get

a_{18}=a_{17}+d

a_{19}=a_{17}+2d

a_{20}=a_{17}+3d

and so on, up to the next term we know,

a_{28}=a_{17}+11d=-40+11d

(Notice how the subscript of <em>a</em> on the right and the coefficient of <em>d</em> add up to the subscript of <em>a</em> on the left.)

The 28th term is -73, so we can solve for <em>d</em> :

-73=-40+11d\implies -33=11d\implies d=-3

To get the first term of the sequence, we use the rule found above and either of the known values of the sequence. For instance,

a_{17}=a_1+16d\implies-40=a_1-16\cdot3\implies a_1=8

Then the recursive rule for this particular sequence is

\begin{cases}a_1=8\\a_n=a_{n-1}-3&\text{for }n>1\end{cases}

So hmm notice the picture below

simply get the area of the segment, and subtract it from the area of the circle, what's left, is the difference

notice your circle, has a radius "r" of 18
