Let the first term be a(0). Then the formula for a(n) is a(0)-18(n-1).
Check: What's the first term? Let n = 1: a(1) = a(0)-18(1-1) = a(0) (correct)
What's the second term? Let -n =2: a(2) = a(0)-18(2-1) = a(0) - 18
and so on.
Answer:
No, this is not a right triangle.
For problem one she starts off earning 10.24 dollars per hour. She receives a raise of 1.60 dollars. So first you have to add both 10.24 and 1.60 together to find out how much more she is payed. 10.24+1.60=12.04. She works 22.25 hours. It would take forever to add 12.04 22 and a quarter times so you multiply them. 12.04*22.25=267.89. So she would earn 267.89 dollars from working 22.25 hours.
For problem two you would start off by dividing 3/4 (the amount of pizza) by 5 (the five people) because when you do this it will give you the equal amount of pizza that each person can have. You get 0.15 which is equal to 3/20. So each person will get 3/20 of the 3/4 of the pizza that are left. (To simplify it the answer is 3/20) you can check your work by doing 3*5 which is 15. Make this the numerator and it’s 15/20. 15/20=3/4.
For the third problem you start off by putting aside the .25 of an ounce. Take the 3 ounces and multiply it by the cost per ounce 3.56. 3*3.56=10.68. Now that you have figured out how much 3 ounces cost out that aside. Now for the .25 of an ounce. Since .25 goes into one four times you do 3.56/4. It’s 0.89. This is how much it costs per .25 of an ounce. After that you add 10.68+0.89. It’s 11.57. To finish the problem you have to subtract 11.57 from 20 dollars. 20.00-11.57=8.43. The teacher receives $8.43 in change.
P = 2 × 4in + 2 × 1in = 8in + 2in = 10in

P = 10 in</u></h2>
The correct answer is C, x is greater than -5. In order to solve this, you have to solve for x by simplifying both sides of the equation. Then you have to isolate the variable. Hope this helped!
