The answer is Letter B - 2, 8, 26

<span>Given: an=3an-1+2 ; where a2=8
Required: First three terms of the sequence - a1, a2, a3
Solution:

You need to work back to get a1 since the given is a2.</span><span>
To work back, minus 2 from 8 first before dividing the number by 3. 
 a1 = 8 - 2
 a1 = 6 / 3
 a1  = 2

In getting a3, multiply the given 8 by 3 then add 2. </span>an=3an-1+2 : a3=3(8)+2<span>
a3 = 8 x 3
a3 = 24 + 2
a3 = 26</span>

Factor the following expression. 36y - 12
Over [174]

Hey there!


36y - 12


FIRST LOOK AT THE GCF (Greatest Common Factor)


36y: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36, and y


12: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12


GCF: 12


So, 12 would most likely be number before you make your parentheses


12(?y - 1)


The numbers in your original equation both share 3 & -1


So, therefore the factor form of your equation should be: 12(3y - 1)


Answer: 12(3y - 1)


Good luck on your assignment & enjoy your day!

Find the length of an arc of 40° in a circle with an 8 inch radius.
lora16 [44]
The length of an arc is the fraction of its circumference based on the given intercepted angle. This is given by the equation,
                                  L (arc) = (Angle / 360) x 2πr
Substituting the known values,
                                  L (arc) = (40 / 360) x 2π(8 inch)  = 16π/9 inch
Thus, the length of the arc is approximately equal to 5.585 inches.
