Answer:
x₍ₙ₎ = x₍₁₎ * (-5)ⁿ⁻¹
Step-by-step explanation:
x₍ₙ₎ = x₍₁₎ * (-5)ⁿ⁻¹
x₍₁₎ = -2
x₍₂₎ = (-2) x (-5)²⁻¹ = (-2) x (-5) = 10
x₍₃₎ = (-2) x (-5)³⁻¹ = (-2) x (-5)² = -50
y= x/5. or x over 5. you are trying to isolate y. in other words you are trying to get y all by itself on one side of the equation. To do that, you need to divide 5 by both sides. It is important to do what you do on one side to the other because that keeps that values of the equation the same.
Answer:
37% of the backyard will not be covered by the water from the sprinkler.
Step-by-step explanation:
The sprinkler is at the centre (0,0). It squirts in a circular motion. The other end of the radius is at (12,16).
First we will calculate the radius of the circle.

Area of the circle = πr^2
= 3.1416*(20)^2
= 3.1416*400
= 1256.64
Area of yard = 40 ft * 50 ft
= 2000
Percent covered by the water = 100*(area of circle/area of yard)
= 100*(1256.64/2000)
= 100*(0.628)
= 62.8%
= 63%
Area not covered by the water = 100 - 63
= 37%
