Answer:

  an = 5n -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Try the offered formulas with n= 1 and see which gives you the first term of the sequence.

<u>an = -2n +3</u>

  -2(1) +3 = 1 . . . . not -2

<u>an = -2n +7</u>

  -2(1) +7 = 5 . . . . not -2

<u>an = 5n +3</u>

  5(1) +3 = 8 . . . . not -2

<u>an = 5n -7</u>

  5(1) -7 = -2 . . . . this is the formula you want

_____

If you recognize the common difference of the sequence to be 5, then you can automatically eliminate any formulas that don't contain 5n.

Find x and y part 4 for these problems​
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3) Sin30 = 11/x

x = 11/Sin30 = 11/0.5

x = 22

Tan 30 = 11/y

y = 11/tan30 = 11/0.5774

y = 19.1

4) Sin30 = 6/x

x = 6/Sin30 = 6/0.5

x = 12

Tan 30 = 6/y

y = 6/tan30 = 6/0.5774

y = 10.39

5) Sin45 = 9√2/y

y = 9√2/Sin45 = 9√2/(√2/2) =

9√2 × 2/√2 = 18

x = 18

Tan 45 = 9√2/x

x = 9√2/Tan 45 = 9√2/1

x = 9√2

6)

Sin60 = 9/x

x = 9/Sin60 = 9/0.866

x = 10.39

Tan 60 = 9/y/2 = 18/y

1.7321 = 18/y

y = 18/1.7321

y = 10.39

A bag contains 10 tiles with the letters A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, and J. Five tiles are chosen, one at a time, and placed in a
lora16 [44]
I assume in this item, we are to find at which step is the mistake done for the calculation of the unknown probability. 

For the possible number of arrangement of letter, n(S), the basic principles of counting should be used.
                       = 10 x 9 x 8 x 7 x 6 = 30,240

This is similar as to what was done in Meghan's work.

For the five tiles to spell out FACED, there is only one (1) possibility.

Therefore, the probability should be equal to 1/30,240 instead of the 1/252 which was presented in the steps above.
