Step-by-step explanation:

Here 6 - 8 = 4 - 6 = 2 - 4 = 0 - 2 = - 2

Thus, the common difference between any two consecutive term is - 2.

The recursive formula is given as:

$f(1)=a_1 = 8\\\\f(2)=a_2 = a_1 - 2\\\\f(3)=a_3 = a_2 - 2\\\\f(4)=a_4 = a_3 - 2\\\\f(5)=a_5 = a_4 - 2\\\\\therefore f(n) = a_n=a_{n-1}-2 \\$

Identify the volume of the composite figure. HELP PLEASE!!

Ilya [14]

Answer:

Vol. of the composite figure is 189 m³

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the volume of the larger figure by mult. together its 3 dimensions:

V = (9 m)(8 m)(3 m) = 216 m³.

Next, find the volume of the "notch," which is (3 m)³, or 27 m³.

Finally, subtract the "notch" volume from the 216 m³ volume found earlier:

216 m³ - 27 m³ = 189 m³

17 Q Graph the inequality n a coordinate plane

aliina [53]

The resultant graph is shown in the attached image.

Explanation:
Before we begin, remember that when we multiply by a negative sign, we flip the sign of the inequality
The given inequality is:
-y ≤ 3x - 5
We will multiply both sides by -1 to get a positive y vale. This will give us:
y ≥ -3x + 5

Now, to graph the inequality, we will first draw the line y = -3x + 5 and then shade the region having y values greater than the line.
To know the region, you will simply use trial and error method for random points on the two sides of the line.

The final solution would be as shown in that attachment.

Hope this helps :)
