Here are some values of sequence Q. Write a recursive definition for the sequence.
Rashid [163]

Answer: Q(n) = Q(n - 1) + 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 3 values of the sequence Q(n)

These values are:

Q(1) = 3

Q(3) = 8

Q(7) = 18

I would think that this is a geometric sequence.

Remember that the equation for the n-th term of a geometric sequence is:

A(n) = A(1)*r^(n-1)

where r is a constant, and A(1) is the first term of the sequence.

If we rewrite the terms that we know of Q(n) in this way we get:

Q(3) = Q(1)*r^(3 - 1) = 3*r^2 = 8

Q(7) = Q(1)*r^(7 - 1) = 3*r^6 = 18

Then we have two equations:

3*r^2 = 8

3*r^6 = 18

We should see if r is the same for both equations:

in the first one we get:

r^2 = 8/3

r = (8/3)^(1/2) = 1.63

and in the other equation we get:

r^6 = 18/3

r = (18/3)^(1/6) = 1.34

Then this is not a geometric sequence.

Now let's see if this is an arithmetic sequence.

The n-th term of an arithmetic sequence is written as:

A(n) = A(1) + (n - 1)*d

where d is a constant.

If we write the terms of Q(n) that we know in this way we get:

Q(3) = Q(1) + (3 - 1)*d = 3 + 2*d = 8

Q(7) = Q(1) + (7 - 1)*d = 3 + 6*d = 18

We need to see if d is the same value for both equations.

in the first one we get:

3 + 2*d = 8

2*d = 8 - 3 = 5

d = 5/2 = 2.5

In the second equation we get:

3 + 6*d = 18

6*d = 18 - 3 = 15

d = 15/6 = 2.5

d is the same for both terms, then this is an arithmetic sequence.

An arithmetic sequence is a sequence where the difference between any two consecutive terms is always the same value (d)

Then the recursive relation is written as:

A(n) = A(n - 1) + d

Then the recursive relation for Q is:

Q(n) = Q(n - 1) + 2.5

The cost per week of running a boarding house is partly constant and partly
patriot [66]

Answer:

the cost of running the boarding

house for 600 students is N61,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let C represents cost

K1 represents first constant

K2 represents second constant

C= k1+k2n

3500 = k1 + 25 k2............. Eqn(1)

6000= k1 + 50 k2 .............. Eqn(2)

Subtract eqn(1) from eqn(2)

2500= 25k2

K2= 2500/25

K2= 100

To get k1 from eqn(1)

3500 = k1 + 25 k2

Substitute the value of k2

3500 = k1 + 25 (100)

3500= k1 +2500

K1= 3500- 2500

K1= 1000

The equation connecting them;

C= 1000+ 100n

The cost of running the boarding

house for 600 students is

n= 600

C= 1000+ 100(600)

C= 1000+60000

C= N 61,0000

If Mrs. Ramsey divides 5 pounds of flour equally into three bowls, what is the weight of flour in one bowl? A) 3 5 pound Elimina
Mariulka [41]
Hi there!

The key in the question is "divide". Therefore, we divide 5 by 3

5/3=1.6 pounds

I don't think any of these are right.
