5 1/6 - 2 2/3

convert to improper fractions:

5 1/6 = 31/6

2 2/3 = 8/3

find common denominator:

8/3 = 16/6

31/6 - 16/6 = 15/6

15/6 = 2 3/6 = 2 1/2

For each of the following sequences, • Give a formula for the nth term in the sequence, • Give a recursive definition for the se

Andrew [12]

Answer:

(a) $n^{th} = n$

$f(1) = 1$

$f(n) = f(n-1) + 1$

(b) $n^{th} = 2^{n-1}$

$f(1) = 1$

$f(n) = f(n-1) * 2$

$f(1) = 1$

$f(n) = f(n-1) * n$

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) This is a sequence of consecutive number

$n^{th} = n$

$f(1) = 1$

$f(n) = f(n-1) + 1$

(b) This is a sequence of 2 to the power of n - 1. The next number is twice time of this number

$n^{th} = 2^{n-1}$

$f(1) = 1$

$f(n) = f(n-1) * 2$

$n^{th} = n!$

$f(1) = 1$

$f(n) = f(n-1) * n$

A student claims that 8^3 x 8^-5 is greater than 1. Explain whether the student is correct or not.

nlexa [21]

Remember:
a^m * a^n=a^(m+n)
a^-m=1/a^m

8³ x 8⁻⁵=8³⁻⁵=8⁻²=1/8²=1/64<1

Answer: the student is not correct, because 1/64<1, and 8³ x 8⁻⁵=1/64.

What is the reference angle for a 240 degree angle?

Veronika [31]

The reference angle for 240° is 60° because 240 is in quadrant III. If you were to subtract 240 from 180 you’d get 60.
