How to find nth term of a sequence in math?

Mathematics

Salutations!

To find the nth term, you will be needing a formula.

a +(n-1) *d

a stands for the first term (first number in the sequence)

d stands for the difference between two terms. (always remember to subtract from the 2nd term to the 1st term)

and the n is what we are going to find

so in your sequence: 5, 10, 15, 20

5 is a (as it is the first term)

d would be 5 ( 10 -5 =5)

a+(n-1)*d

5+ (n-1) *5

5+5n-5

5n+0

your nth term is 5n+0

Hope this helps!

Have a great day!

What equation describes the circle that is centered at (8, 3) and has a radius of 9
Sloan [31]

Answer:

<h3> (x-8)²+(y-3)² = 81</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

The general equation of a circle is expressed as;

(x-a)²+(y-b)² = r² where;

(a, b) is the centre of the circle

r is the radius

Given the centre (8, 3) and the radius of 9, the equation of the circle will be;

(x-a)²+(y-b)² = r²

(x-8)²+(y-3)² = 9²

(x-8)²+(y-3)² = 81

hence the required equation is  (x-8)²+(y-3)² = 81

Using the given information, give the vertex form equation of each parabola.
Amanda [17]

Answer:

The equation of parabola is given by : (x-4) = \frac{-1}{3}(y+3)^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that vertex and focus of parabola are

Vertex: (4,-3)

Focus:(\frac{47}{12},-3)

The general equation of parabola is given by.

(x-h)^{2} = 4p(y-k), When x-componet of focus and Vertex is same  

(x-h) = 4p(y-k)^{2}, When y-componet of focus and Vertex is same

where Vertex: (h,k)

and p is distance between vertex and focus

The distance between two points is given by :

L=\sqrt{(X2-X1)^{2}+(Y2-Y1)^{2}}

For value of p:

p=\sqrt{(X2-X1)^{2}+(Y2-Y1)^{2}}

p=\sqrt{(4-\frac{47}{12})^{2}+((-3)-(-3))^{2}}

p=\sqrt{(\frac{1}{12})^{2}}

p=\frac{1}{12} and p=\frac{-1}{12}

Since, Focus is left side of the vertex,

p=\frac{-1}{12} is required value

Replacing value in general equation of parabola,

Vertex: (h,k)=(4,-3)

p=\frac{-1}{12}

(x-h) = 4p(y-k)^{2}

(x-4) = 4(\frac{-1}{12})(y+3)^{2}

(x-4) = \frac{-1}{3}(y+3)^{2}
