The answer is C i took the test a couple days ago
Adds 4 each time and 5-4=1 so nth term is 4n + 1
Answer:
Dividing a power of 4 by 4 is equivalent to ( reducing,) the exponent by (1).
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the power of 4 be 3
4 *4*4
We divide by 4
4*4*4/4 = 4*4 = 4^2
So we removed 1 power
Notice that 3-1 =2
Let 4 be raised to any power
4^a
We divide by 4
4^a/4 we remove 1 of the powers
we are left with
4^(a-1)
So we reduce the exponent by 1
4/1 is the same as 4.
So 4+3/4= 4 and 3/4
<u>Final Answer</u>= 4 and 3/4
18 - [ 18 - [ 18 - ( 18 - 1)]]
= 18 - [ 18 - [ 18 - 17]]
=18 - [ 18 - 1]
= 18 -17
=1
