Answer:
- using the rule given: 2.5
- using an exponential rule: 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Evaluating the linear rule given, for n = 1, we have ...
a1 = 7(1/2)(1) -1 = 7/2 -1 = 5/2 = 2.5
_____
We suspect you may intend the exponential function ...
an = 7(1/2)^(n-1)
Then, for n = 1, we have ...
a1 = 7(1/2)^(1 -1) = 7(1) = 7 . . . . the first term is 7
_____
When writing an exponential expression in plain text, it requires the exponential operator, a caret (^). If the exponent contains any arithmetic, as this one does, it must be enclosed in parentheses.
No, because it has a constant rate of change
By looking at this table
The y value changes at a constant multiple of 2
6 4
7 2 (4-2 is a difference of 2)
8 0 (2-0 is a difference of 2)
9 -2 (0-2 is a difference of 2)
This means it is Linear
So all u have to do is just add $1.28 and $0.54
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
- cotx cos x - cot x = 0
- cotx( cosx - 1) = 0
1. <u>cotx = 0</u>
- x = π/2 + πn
- In the interval [0, 2π] we have π/2 and 3π/2
2. <u>cosx = 1</u>
- x = 0 + 2πn
- In the given interval we have 0 and 2π
<u>So the solution set is:</u>
We have the following arithmetic series:
4, 13, 22, 31, 40
The common difference is given by:
13-4 = 9
22-13 = 9
31-22 = 9
40-31 = 9
Since it is an arithmetic series, the difference is constant.
Answer:
The common difference is:
9
option 4
