1 answer:

6 0

Hi, ok all you need to do is use the direct variation formula which is= y/x=y/x so you will replace your numbers by each value which get us to = 3/-6=y/1 so you cross multiply which gives us 3=-6y you divide 3 by -6 and that is the value of y, thank you for reading hope it helps ;)

If a₁ = 4 and an = 5an-1 then find the value of a5.

igor_vitrenko [27]

The value of $a_{5}$ is 2500, when $a_{1}=4$ and $5a_{n-1}$ .

Given that, $a_{1}=4$ and $5a_{n-1}$ .

We need to find the value of $a_{5}$ .

<h3>What is an arithmetic sequence?</h3>

An arithmetic progression or arithmetic sequence is a sequence of numbers such that the difference between the consecutive terms is constant.

Now, to find the value of $a_{5}$ :

$a_{2} =5a_{2-1}=5a_{1}=5 \times4=20$

$a_{3} =5a_{3-1}=5a_{2}=5 \times20=100$

$a_{4} =5a_{4-1}=5a_{3}=5 \times100=500$

$a_{5} =5a_{5-1}=5a_{4}=5 \times500=2500$

Therefore, the value of $a_{5}$ is 2500.

These box plots show the basketball scores for two teams.

Arisa [49]

The most appropriate statement is the interquartile range for the Wolverines, 30 is less than the IQR for the panthers, 40.

<h3>What is the correct statement?</h3>

The box plot is used to show the distribution of data. The box plot can be used to determine the range, interquartile range and median of the data set.

The range is the difference between the two ends of the whiskers.

Range for the Wolverines = 96 - 35 = 61

Range for the Panthers = 107 - 33 = 74

The interquartile range is the difference between the first and third lines on the box

IQR for the Wolverines = 85 - 55 = 30

Range for the Panthers = 90 - 50 = 40

If the sum of three consecutive multiples of 7 is 945. Find the smallest among them

Firlakuza [10]

consider first number is = x

formula,

(n / 2)(first number + last number) = sum,

7/2(x+x+6)= 945

2x+6= 945×2/7

2x+6 = 270

2x= 270-6

x=264/2= 132

Answer the smallest number is 132.
