What is the explicit rule for this geometric sequence? 2, 6, 18, 54, …

Mathematics
1 answer:
Alex787 [66]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

A term at position n can be expressed as \[2*3^{n-1}\]

Step-by-step explanation:

The given geometric sequence is 2, 6, 18, 54, …

Starting term = 2

Second term = 6

So second term is 3 times the first term.

Similarly, Third term = 18

This is 3 times the second term, that is , 3 * 6

Fourth term is is 54.

This is 3 times the third term, that is , 3 * 18

Generalizing, a term in the sequence can be expressed as \[2*3^{n-1}\]

where n represents the position of the term in the sequence.

-3a - 4(a - 6) = 24 - 7a<br><br> Solve the equation <br><br> Thanks
Dominik [7]

-3a-4(a-6)=24-7a

-3a-4a+24=24-7a

-7a+24=24-7a

-7a+24=-7a+24

-7a+24-24=-7a+24-24

Simplify

Subtract the numbers

Subtract the numbers

−7a=-7a

Add 7a to both sides of the equation

-7a+7a =-7a+7a

Simplify

(GIVING BRAINLIST IF ANSWERED ASAP) Figure ABCD is transformed to A′B′C′D′, as shown: (attachment)
Over [174]

Answer:

B.

Since it is mirrored, it can also be said that it is a reflection instead of simply a rotation. It is mirrored from left to right, therefore it is reflected about the y-axis. Lastly, it is true that it would have a translation left by 2 units, as you can see it needs to "travel 2 units" to read A'B'C'D'.

Which sequence is generated by the function f(n + 1) = f(n) – 2 for f(1) = 10?
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer: The sequence generated is 10, 8, 6, 4, 2, ...

This sequence is arithmetic with starting term 10 and common difference -2. This means we add -2 to each term to get the next one (same as subtracting 2 from each term). This common difference is directly connected to the -2 from the recursive rule f(n+1) = f(n)-2

Whatever the nth term f(n) is, we subtract off 2 to get f(n)-2 to get the f(n+1) term, which is right after the nth term.
