As we already have the model that describes the change of the population in Italy in terms of the years that have elapsed, we only have to replace the conditions that are requested in that equation.
Therefore to find the population of Italy in the year 2000 (t = 10 years) substitute t = 10 in the equation and have:
million people
To find the population of Italy in 2008 (t = 18 years)
substitute t = 18 in the equation and have:
million people
To predict the population in Italy for 2015 and 2020 with this model, we substitute in the equation t = 25 and t = 30
t = 25
million people
t = 30
million people
Answer:
Recursive:
Explicit:
And the 20th term is 225.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the sequence:
35, 45, 55, 65.
Notice that each subsequent term is 10 more than the previous term.
Therefore, our common difference is (+)10.
Recursive Rule:
The standard format for the recursive rule is:
Where a is the initial term and d is the common difference.
From our sequence, we know that a the initial term is 35.
And as determined, our common difference d is 10.
Substitute. Hence, our recursive rule is:
Explicit Rule:
The standard format for the explicit rule is:
Where a is the initial term and d is the common difference. So, let’s substitute 35 for a and 10 for d. Hence, our explicit formula is:
Now, let’s find the 20th term. We will utilize the explicit rule since the recursive rule can get tedious. Substitute 20 for n because we would like to 20th term. Thus:
Evaluate:
Hence, the 20th term is 225.
