Find the explicit formula for the sequence? -1,4,-16,64......

Ede4ka [16]4 years ago

The explicit formula for given sequence is: a_n = -1 . (-4)^{n-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given sequence is:

-1,4,-16,64.....

We can see that there is no same difference between consecutive terms so we will find common ratio to see if it is a geometric sequence.

Here

a_1 = -1\\a_2 = 4\\a_3 = -16\\a_4 = 64\\r = \frac{a_2}{a_1} = \frac{4}{-1} = -4\\r = \frac{a_3}{a_2} = \frac{-16}{4} = -4

The explicit formula for geometric sequence is:

a_n = a_1r^{n-1}

Putting the values of r and a1

a_n = -1 . (-4)^{n-1}

Hence

The explicit formula for given sequence is: a_n = -1 . (-4)^{n-1}

Keywords: Geometric sequence, common ratio

Algebra 1 : ordered pairs kinda dont get it

Answer:

<em>Option C; 3x - y = -27 and x + 2y = 16</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let us consider the equation 21x - y = 9. In this case it would be best to keep the equation in this form, in order to find the x and y intercept. Let us first find to y - intercept, for the simplicity ⇒ 21 * ( 0 ) - y = 9 ⇒ y = - 9 when x = 0. Now if we take a look at the first plot of line q, we can see that the x value is -9 rather than the y value, so this equation doesn't match that of line q. This would eliminate the first two options being a possibility.

2. Now let us consider the equation 3x - y = -27. Let us consider the x-intercept in this case. That being said, ⇒ 3x - ( 0 ) = -27 ⇒ 3x = -27 ⇒ x = -9 when y = 0. As we can see, this coordinate matches with one of the coordinates of line q, which might mean that the second equation could match with the equation for line v.

3. To see whether Option 3 is applicable, we must take a look at the 2nd equation x + 2y = 16. Let us calculate the y - intercept here: ( 0 ) + 2y = 16 ⇒ 2y = 16 ⇒ y = 8 when x = 0. Here we can see that this coordinate matches with that of the second coordinate provided as one of the points in line v. That means that ~ <em>Answer: Option C</em>

Identify the median and IQR of the data set below.20222426283032Your answerWhich dota
Dennis_Churaev [7]

We are given a boxplot that contains some data. We will use the information below to analyze the given question.

STEP 1: Median

From the image above, we can see that the median represents the line drawn inside the box

This gives;

\text{Median}=24

STEP 2: Interquartile range

The interquartile range is the difference between the third quartile and the first quartile.

\begin{gathered} q_3=28 \\ q_1=22 \\ \text{IQR}=28-22 \\ \text{IQR}=6 \end{gathered}
