Answer: option D is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given sequence, the consecutive terms differ by a common difference.

The formula for determining the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is expressed as

Tn = a + (n - 1)d

Where

a represents the first term of the sequence.

d represents the common difference.

n represents the number of terms in the sequence.

From the information given,

a = - 351

d = - 343 - - 351 = - 343 + 351

d = 8

Therefore, the explicit function which defines the sequence is

f(n) = - 351 + 8(n - 1)

f(n) = 8n - 8 - 351

f(n) = 8n - 359

Rob needs to mix 4.5 liters of liquid fruit punch concentrate with 0.5

Dmitriy789 [7]

4.5 litres of fruit punch with 0.5 litres of water.
13.5 /4.5 = 3. Multiply 0.5 by 3 to get 1.5 litres of water. Therefore, 13.5 litres of fruit punch concentrate needs 1.5 litres of water. 13.5 + 1.5 = 15 litres of fruit punch in total.

Which sequence could be described by the explicit definition: t_n=2^n+1t n = 2 n + 1

yuradex [85]

Answer:

2. 27

3. Option C. 3, 5, 9, 17, 33, ...

Step-by-step explanation:

2. The sequence is defined by the explicit function $t_{n} = 2^{n} - n$

Therefore, the 5th term i.e. $t_{5}$ of the sequence.

$t_{5} = 2^{5} - 5 = 32 - 5 = 27$ (Answer)

3. The explicit definition is $t_{n} = 2^{n} + 1$

Hence, $t_{1} = 2^{1} + 1 = 3$

$t_{2} = 2^{2} + 1 = 5$

$t_{3} = 2^{3} + 1 = 9$

$t_{4} = 2^{4} + 1 = 17$

Therefore, the option C is the right sequence. (Answer)
