(a) One possibility is 8.45
Rounded to the nearest integer = 8
Rounded to the nearest tenth = 8.5
And rounding this to the nearest integer = 9
(b) The possible numbers are 8.45 to 8.49, inclusively
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>AP given</h3>
<h3>To find</h3>
<h3>Solution</h3>
Common difference
<u>Difference of first two</u>
- d = (a -b) - (a + b) = -2b
<u>Difference of second two</u>
<u>Difference of last two</u>
<u>Now comparing d:</u>
- -2b = ab - (a - b)
- ab - a = - 3b
- a(1 - b) = 3b
- a = 3b/(1 - b)
and
- a/b - ab = -2b
- a(1/b - b) = -2b
- a = 2b²/(b² - 1)
<u>Eliminating a:</u>
- 2b²/(b² - 1) = 3b/(1 - b)
- 2b/(b+1) = -3
- 2b = -3b - 3
- 5b = - 3
- b = -3/5
<u>Finding a:</u>
- a = 3b/(1 - b) =
- 3*(-3/5) *1/(1 - (-3/5)) =
- -9/5*5/8 =
- -9/8
<u>So the first term is:</u>
- a + b = -3/5 - 9/8 = -24/40 - 45/40 = - 69/40
<u>Common difference:</u>
<u>The 6th term:</u>
- a₆ = a₁ + 5d =
- -69/40 + 5*6/5 =
- -69/40 + 240/40 =
- 171/40 = 4 11/40
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Note the common difference d between consecutive terms of the sequence
8 - 6 = 10 - 8 = 2
This indicates that the sequence is arithmetic with n th term
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Here a₁ = 6 and d = 2, thus
= 6 + 2(n - 1) = 6 + 2n - 2 = 2n + 4 ← explicit formula
Hence
= (2 × 130) + 4 = 260 + 4 = 264
so, you just use the x's from the table and plug them into the equation to find the y.
y=(1)+9
y=10
y=(2)+9
y=11
y=(3)+9
y=12
y=(4)+9
y=13
