Answer:

t_1= \text{19 for n =1}

t_n=t_{n-1}-18 \text{ for n }> 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : General term of  arithmetic sequence : t_n=19-18(n-1)

To Find:  the recursive formula of the sequence

Solution :

t_n=19-18(n-1)

To find the recursive formula of the sequence .

t_{n-1}=19-18(n-1-1)

t_{n-1}=19-18(n-2)

So, the recursive formula is :

t_n-t_{n-1}=19-18(n-1)-[19-18(n-2)]

t_n-t_{n-1}=19-18n+18-{19-18n+36]

t_n-t_{n-1}=19-18n+18-19+18n-36

t_n-t_{n-1}=-18

t_n=t_{n-1}-18

Hence the recursive formula of the sequence is :

t_1= \text{19 for n =1}

t_n=t_{n-1}-18 \text{ for n }> 1

t_n=19-18(n-1)
t_{n-1}=19-18(n-2)
\implies t_n-t_{n-1}=-18(n-1)+18(n-2)
\implies t_n=t_{n-1}-18n+18+18n-36
\implies t_n=t_{n-1}-18

So the recursive formula is

\begin{cases}t_1=19\\t_n=t_{n-1}-18&\text{for }n>1\end{cases}

For lines to be parallel, the slopes have to be the SAME.

For lines to be perpendicular, the slopes have to be the exact opposite. (opposite sign and number)

For example(perpendicular):

slope is 2

the perpendicular slope is -1/2

slope is -4/5

the perpendicular slope is 5/4


12. line a and b are perpendicular


13. Line a: y = 3/5x + 1

Line b: y = 3/5x - 2/5

Line c: y = 4/6 + 5/3x

line a and b are parallel


14. Line a: y = 3x + 6

Line b: y = 6 - 3x

Line c: y = 2/3x + 6

Neither, none of them are parallel or perpendicular


15. Line a: y = -2/3 + 4/3x

Line b: y = -1/4 - 3/4x

Line c: y = 5 + 3/4x

line a and b are perpendicular

When you find the surface area of a cube, you ________ the length of the cube and<br> multiply by 6
Papessa [141]

Answer:

The word for the blank would be "square".

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the area of a face of a cube would be square its side length, the total surface area of a cube would be that times 6.

Hope this helped!

[ Please help! ] Choose the equation that represents the graph below.
Kitty [74]

The line crosses the x -axis at point (9,0) and the y-axis at point (0,6).

If the equation of the line is y=kx+b, then substitute the coordinates of the points into this equation:

1) 0=9k+b;

2) 6=b.

Substitute the second equation into the first:

9k+6=0,\\ \\k=-\dfrac{2}{3}.

The equation of the line is

y=-\dfrac{2}{3}x+6.

Answer: option C
