Q1)
the sequence should start with 10, after that each term is calculated by subtracting 3 from the previous term.
1st term - 10
2nd term - 10 - 3 = 7
3rd term  - 7 - 3 = 4
4th term - 4 - 3 = 1
5th term  - 1 - 3 = -2
6th term - -2 - 3 = -5
7th term - -5 - 3 = -8 
8th - -8 - 3 = -11
9th - -11 - 3  = -14
10th -14 - 3 = -17
the sequence is - 10,7,4,1,-2,-5,-8,-11,-14,-17

Q2) 
<span>the sequence whose nth term is the sum of the first n positive integers
In this we get the term by adding all the integers of the terms before that term 
1st term - n = 1 no terms before this , therefore 0 + n(1)  = 1
2nd term -n =2  sum of integers before - 1 + n( 2) = 3
3rd - 3+3 = 6
4th - 6+4 = 10 
5th - 10 + 5 = 15
6th - 15 + 6 = 21
7th  - 21 + 7 = 28
8th - 28 + 8 = 36
9th - 36 + 9 = 45
10th -  45 + 10 = 55
this is a triangular number pattern
this number pattern can be found out using ; n = (n x (n+1))/2

sequence is - 1,3,6,10,15,21,28,36,45,55

Q3)
</span>the sequence whose nth term is 3n − 2n
general term for this sequence is 3n − 2n
to find 1st term , n = 1
substituting n = 1 in the general term 
1st term - 3x1 - 2x1 = 3-2 = 1
2nd - 3x2- 2x2 = 6 - 4 = 2
3rd - 3x3 - 2x3 = 9-6 = 3
4th - 3x4 - 2x4 = 12 - 8 = 4
5th - 3x5 - 2x5 = 15 - 10 = 5
6th - 3x6 - 2x6 = 18 - 12 = 6
7th - 3x7 - 2x7 = 21 - 14 = 7
8th - 3 x8 - 2x8 = 24 - 16 = 8
9th - 3x9 - 2x9 = 27 - 18 = 9
10th - 3x10 - 2x10 = 30-20 = 10

sequence is 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10

Q4)
<span>the sequence whose nth term is √ n
when n=1 1st term is </span>√1 = 1
1st term - √1 = 1
2nd term - √2 = 1.41
3rd - √3 = 1.73
4th - √4 = 2
5th - √5 = 2.23
6th- √6 = 2.44
7th - √7 = 2.65
8th- √8 = 2.82
9th - √9 = 3
10th - √10 = 3.16

The sequence is 1, 1.41, 1.73, 2, 2.23, 2.44, 2.65, 2.82, 3, 3.16

Q5)T<span>he sequence whose first two terms are 1 and 5 and each succeeding term is the sum of the two previous terms
</span>1st term - 1
2nd term - 5
3rd term - add 1st and 2nd term (1+5) = 6
4th term - add 2nd and 3rd terms (5+6) = 11
5th - add 3rd and 4th (6+11) = 17
6th - (11+17) = 28
7th - (17 + 28) = 45
8th - 45 + 28 = 73
9th - 73 + 45 = 118
10th - 73+ 118 = 191

sequence is - 1,5,6,11,17,28,45,73,118,191

A. We start by writting down the general formula:
a(1) = 10
a(2) = a(1) - 3  
a(3) = a(2) - 3
a(n) = a(n-1) -3

Now we find first ten terms:
10, 7, 4 ,1, -2, -5, -8, -11, -14, -17

b. We start by writting down the general formula:
a(1) = 1
a(2) = 1 + 2
a(3) = 1 + 2 + 3
a(n) = 1 + 2 + ... + n

Now we find first ten terms:
1, 3, 6, 10, 15, 21, 28, 36, 45, 55

c. We start by writting down the general formula:
a(n) = 3n -2n = n

Now we find first ten terms:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

d. We start by writting down the general formula:
a(n)= \sqrt{n}

Now we find first ten terms:
1,  \sqrt{2},\sqrt{3}, 2,\sqrt{5},\sqrt{6},\sqrt{7},\sqrt{8},3,\sqrt{10}

e. We start by writting down the general formula:
a(1) = 1
a(2) = 5
a(3) = a(1) + a(2)
a(4) = a(2) + a(3)
a(n) = a(n-2) + a(n-1)

Now we find first ten terms:
1, 5, 6, 11, 17, 28, 45, 73, 118, 191

Simplify.<br> (-3.9) + (6.01) - (-7.423)<br> -5.513.<br> 2.487.<br> 9.533.
lianna [129]
First, since we must follow PEMDAS, we need to do the operation that is first, which is addition. 

-3.9 + 6.01  ← Adding a negative means subtracting, then giving the sign of the bigger number.

So now we solved those and we got this answer: 2.11

Now, we need to subtract and re-write the expression.

2.11 - (-7.423) = 2.11 + 7.423= 9.533

Ok....so now we have our final answer, and we have the choices above.

The only answer that matches ours is the last one.

Final answer: 9.533

Hope I helped ^_^

The number of E.coli bacteria cells in a pond of stagnant water can be represented by the function below, where A represents the
liq [111]

Answer:

  • <u>Option B. 59%</u>

Explanation:

The function that represents the number of E.coli bacteria cells per 100 mL of water as the time t years elapses is:

  • A(t)=136(1.123)^{4t}

The base, 1.123, represents the multiplicative constant rate of change of the function, so you just must substitute 1 for t in the power part of the function:

  • rate=(1.123)^{4t}=(1.123)^4=1.590

Then, the multiplicative rate of change is 1.590, which means that every year the number of E.coli bacteria cells per 100 mL of water increases by a factor of 1.590, and that is 1.59 - 1 = 0.590 or 59% increase.
