Answer:

The Recursive Formula of sequence is: 8, 5, 2, -1, -4,...

Step-by-step explanation:

Arithmetic Sequence is a sequence in which every two neighbor digits have equal distances.

For finding the nth term, we use formula

aₙ = a + (n - 1) d

where, aₙ = value of nth term

a = First term

n = number of term

d = difference

We have given that,

a₁₇ = -40  ⇒ a₁₇ = a + (17 - 1)d

⇒ -40 = a + 16d        →      (1)

Also, a₂₈ = -73  ⇒ a₂₈ = a + (28 - 1)d

⇒ -73 = a + 27d           →    (2)

Solving, equation (1) and (2), We get  

a = 8, d = -3

Hence, First term = a = 8

Second term = a + d = 8 - 3 = 5

Third term = 5 + d = 2

Fourth term = 2 + d = -1

Thus, The Arithmetic Sequence is: 8, 5, 2, -1, -4,...

If 5^n x 5^3 = 5^6, then n is _____.<br><br> A) 18<br> B) 2<br> C) 3<br> D) 9
Eddi Din [679]
<h3>Answer:  C) 3</h3>

The rule we'll use is a^b*a^c = a^(b+c). So we add the exponents.

That means 5^n*5^3 = 5^(n+3)

So 5^n*5^3 = 5^6 turns into 5^(n+3) = 5^6

The bases are equal to 5, so the exponents be equal to one another.

n+3 = 6

n+3-3 = 6-3

n = 3

So 5^3*5^3 = 5^(3+3) = 5^6.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Sweet. Get to answer finally. I was the guy commenting on your other post.

1. 72

2. 46

3. 99

4. Same side interior angles are supplementary

5. alternate interior angles are equal to each other so set up the x expressions equal to each other. 5x-7=3x+17. Solve for x

5x-7=3x+17

2x=24

x=12

plug it in for the 5x-7 and get an angle.. 5(12)-7

60-7

53.

The 5x-7 and the 4y+3 is supplementary.

so 53+3+4y=180. combine the 2 and set them equal to 180 to find y

56+4y=180

124=4y

y=31

And now we find the angle of 6. We know that corresponding angles are equal and the y expression and angle 6 are corresponding angles

so plug in your answer for y in the expression..

4(31)+3 = 127.

so angle 6 is 127
