First we define the variables:
m = multiple choice questions
s = short answer questions
Next we need to satisfy 2 conditions:
1) There are a total of 40 questions. We can represent this mathematically using the variables I defined:
2) The multiple-choice questions are worth 2 points and the short-answer are worth 4 points but they need to total 100 points. This can also be represented mathematically:
By satisfying the conditions provided we were able to create the 2 equations!
Answer:
for n = 1, 2, . . . , 20.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is an arithmetic sequence, because the population is said to increase by 4 animals yearly. The formula for the nth term in an arithmetic sequence is given by:
where
is the nth term, [/tex]a_1[/tex] is the first term, n = 1, 2, . . . and d is the common difference.
Since they are currently 17, this implies that the first number in the population sequence will be 17. In order words, the first term is 17.
Since they increase by 4 yearly, then the common difference is 4.
Since it's for 20years, the n = 1, 2, . . ., 20. The explicit formula is therefore:
for n = 1, 2, . . . , 20.
