Answer:

1. Proved down

2. proved down

3. f(10) = -20 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us explain how to solve the question

∵ f(0) = -20, f(n) = f(n - 1) - 5 for n > 1

→ That means we have an arithmetic sequence with constant

   difference -5 and first term -20

1. → f(1) means we need to find the second term, which equal the

      term - 5

∵ f(1) means n = 1

∴ f(1) = f(1 - 1) - 5

∴ f(1) = f(0) - 5

∵ f(0) = -20

∴ f(1) = -20 - 5 → Proved

2. → f(3) means we need to find the third term, which equal the

   second term - 5

∵ f(3) means n = 3

∴ f(3) = f(3 - 1) - 5

∴ f(3) = f(2) - 5

→ f(2) = f(1) - 5

∵ f(1) = -20 - 5

∴ f(2) = [-20 - 5] - 5 = -20 - 5 - 5

∴ f(3) = [-20 - 5 - 5] - 5

∴ f(3) = -20 - 5 - 5 - 5 → Proved

3. → From 1 and 2 we notice that the number of -5 is equal to n,

      at n = 1 there is one (-5), when n= 3 there are three (-5)

∵ n = 10

∴ There are ten (-5)

∴ f(10) = -20 - 5(10)

∴ f(10) = -20 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5 - 5 → Proved

Solve the equation.
mylen [45]

-9/15y+3/21=5/15y-14/21

Move 5/15y to the other side. Sign changes from +5/15y to -5/15y

-9/15y-5/15y+3/21=5/15y-5/15y-14/21

-14/15y+3/21=-14/21

Move 3/21 to the other side. Sign changes from +3/21 to -3/21.

-14/15y+3/21-3/21=-14/21-3/21

-14/15y=-14/21-3/21

-14/21-3/21=-17/21

-14/15y=-17/21

Multiply both sides by -15/14

-14/15y(-15/14)

Cross out 15 and 15, divide by 15 then becomes 1

Cross out 14 and 14, divide by 14 then becomes 1

1*1*y=y

-17/21*-15/14

Cross out 15 and 21 , divide by 3. 15/3=2, 21/3=7

17/7*5/14=85/98

Answer: c. y=85/98
