Answer:
a[n] = a[n-1]×(4/3)
a[1] = 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
The terms of a geometric sequence have an initial term and a common ratio. The common ratio multiplies the previous term to get the next one. That sentence describes the recursive relation.
The general explicit term of a geometric sequence is ...
a[n] = a[1]×r^(n-1) . . . . . where a[1] is the first term and r is the common ratio
Comparing this to the expression you are given, you see that ...
a[1] = 1/2
r = 4/3
(You also see that parenthses are missing around the exponent expression, n-1.)
A recursive rule is defined by two things:
- the starting value(s) for the recursive relation
- the recursive relation relating the next term to previous terms
The definition of a geometric sequence tells you the recursive relation is:
<em>the next term is the previous one multiplied by the common ratio</em>.
In math terms, this looks like
a[n] = a[n-1]×r
Using the value of r from above, this becomes ...
a[n] = a[n-1]×(4/3)
Of course, the starting values are the same for the explicit rule and the recursive rule:
a[1] = 1/2
The mean = (3+1+2+2+2) / 5 = 10/5 = 2
subtract mean from each of the values
gives 1 -1 0 0 0
MAD = (1^1 + (-1)^2) / 5 = 2/5 = 0.4
A is the correct choice.
Daniela made her error on step 3 because it says: <span>
<span>"Find the ratio of the differences of the means compared to the mean absolute deviation.

She didn't find the difference between the today and last week means. She just put the mean as a whole.</span></span>

Just subtract by like numbers.
Answer:
586.5 ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the Perimeter of the gym which is a rectangle. Formula is 2 (L+W) so,
2(65.5+32.25) = 195.5ft then multiply by 3 times around the perimter of the gym
(195.5 x3= 586.5 ft)
