4th term = 29

to generate the terms, substitute n = 2, 3, 4 into the rule

noting that b(1) = - 7

b(2) = b(2 - 1) + 12 = b(1) + 12 = -7 + 12 = 5

b(3) = b(3 - 1) + 12 = b(2) + 12 = 5 + 12 = 17

b(4) = b(4 - 1) + 12 = b(3) + 12 = 17 + 12 = 29

Answer:  The 4th term in the sequence is 29 .

Step-by-step explanation:

The given recursive formula for the sequence :

b(1)=-7\\\\ b(n)=b(n-1)+12

To find : 4th term

At n=2 , we have

b(2)=b(1)+12=-7+12=5   (Second term)

At n=3 , we have

b(3)=b(2)+12=5+12=17  (Third term)

At n=4 , we have

b(4)=b(3)+12=17+12=29  (Fourth term)

Therefore , the 4th term in the sequence is 29 .

plug 0 in for y

0=-16t^2+36

then slove for t

Natali5045456 [20]

Given :

A boat is being pulled into a dock with a rope attached to the boat at water level. When the boat is 12 feet from the dock, the length of the rope form the boat to the dock is 3 feet longer than twice the height of the dock above the water.

To Find :

The height of the dock.

Solution :

This will make a right angle triangle as given in link below .

Now , applying Pythagoras theorem :

(2h+3)^2=h^2+12^2\\\\4h^2+9h+9=h^2+144\\\\h^2+4h-45=0\\\\(h-5)(h+9)=0

Now , h = 5 or h = -9 .

Now , height cannot be negative .

So , height of the dock is 5 ft .

Hence , this is the required solution .
