The common ratio of both the formulas is 3 and 2. The first formula is explicit and the second is the recursive formula.

<h3>What is the recursive rule?</h3>

A rule is defined such that its definition includes itself.

1.

The given sequence is

-2, -6, -18, -54

Common ratio ;

r = -6 / -2 = 3

a _ n =-2 (3) ^{n-1}

This given formula is the explicit formula.

2.

The given sequence is

4, 8, 16, 32

Common ratio ;

r = 8 / 4 = 2

a_n = a_{n-1}.2\\\\a _1 = 4

This given formula is the recursive formula.

Work out the formula for the nth term of the<br>quadratic sequence:<br>5, 11, 19, 29​
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

n squared + 3n + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

5,11,19,29

Firstly look at the difference between each number. The first difference is 6 then 8 then 10 etc. After that you look at your created sequence - 6,8,10 etc. The difference is 2 each time. Then applying rules, you have to do the constant difference divided by 2 to get a coefficient of n squared. So in this case it's n squared because 2/2 = 1 so you don't have to place a 1 in front of the n squared. After you create a sequence from the n squared. That would be 1,4,9 etc. Then you need to see how to get from the sequence: 1,4,9 etc to your original sequence: 5,11,19 etc. So if you calculate it you will get 4,7,10 because firstly 5-1 = 4 then 11-4 = 7 etc. The sequence 4,7,10 is a linear sequence so the constant difference is 3 each time. So to get a nth term of a linear sequence you will start off as 3n then you will substitute 1 then 2 then 3 into the 3n. Therefore that would be 3,6 etc. So if you take the first substituted term, that would be 3 as said before then you will have to see how to get from the 3 to 4 so that is just adding 1. So the nth term of this linear sequence is 3n + 1. Check if it works at the end. So the overall nth term of the quadratic sequence is n squared as said before + 3n + 1.

How do you solve 3x+7=x
vredina [299]
3x + 7 = x

First, subtract 3x from both sides. / Your problem should look like: 7 = x - 3x
Second, simplify x - 3x to -2x. / Your problem should look like: 7 = -2x
Third, divide both sides by -2. / Your problem should look like: \frac{7}{-2} = x
Fourth, simplify \frac{7}{-2} to -\frac{7}{2} / Your problem should look like: - \frac{7}{2} = x
Fifth, switch sides. / Your problem should look like: x = -\frac{7}{2}

Answer as fraction: -\frac{7}{2}
Answer as decimal: -3.5
