Which recursive formula can be used to generate the sequence shown. Where f(1)=5 an n >1?

Mathematics

zalisa [80]3 years ago

Answer:

f(n+1) = f(n) - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume your sequence is

5, –1, –7, –13, –19, …  

A recursive formula defines each term of a sequence using the preceding term.

For your sequence,

f(1)  =   5

f(2) =  -1

f(3) =  -7

f(4) = -13

f(5) = -19

We see that

f(2) - f(1)   =   -1 -   5   = -6

f(3) - f(2)  =  -7 -  (-1)  = -6

f(4) - f(3)  = -13 -  (-7) = -6

f(5) - f(4)  = -19 - (-13) = -6

Each term is six units less than the preceding term.

The repeating pattern (recursive formula) is

f(n + 1) - f(n) - 6  or

f(n+ 1) = f(n) - 6

The five-number summary is:

Minimum: 9

First Quartile: 16.5

Median: 25.5

Third Quartile: 39

Maximum: 51

3. Range = 42

4. Interquartile range = 22.5

<h3>How to Find the Five-number Summary of a Data?</h3>

Given the data for the lengths as, 36, 15, 9, 22, 36, 14, 42, 45, 51, 29, 18, 20, to find the five-number summary of the data set, we would follow the steps below:

1. The numbers in ordered from the smallest to the largest would be:

9, 14, 15, 18, 20, 22, 29, 36, 36, 42, 45, 51

2. The five-number summary for the lengths in minutes would be:

  • Minimum value: this is the smallest lengths, which is 9
  • First Quartile (Q1): this is the middle of the first half of the data set of the lengths in minutes, which is 16.5.
  • Median: the median is the center of the data distribution which is 25.5.
  • Third Quartile: this is the middle of the second half of the data set of the lengths in minutes, which is 39.
  • Maximum: this is the largest length in minutes, which is, 51.

3. Range of the data = max - min = 51 - 9 = 42

4. The interquartile range for the data set = Q3 - Q1 = 39 - 16.5

Interquartile range for the data set = 22.5

What does the off center rectangle mean in the picture?
Alla [95]
2/5+4/7=2
14/35+20/35=2
34/35=2
FALSE
so the rectangle must be a placeholder that is added
so 34/35+x=2
x=1 1/35 or 36/35
