Answer:

<h2>First sequence: 3, 0, -3, -6</h2><h2>Second sequence: 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}a_1=3\\a_n=a_{n-1}-3\end{array}\right\\\\\text{Put n = 2, n = 3 and n = 4 to the formula of}\ a_n:\\\\a_1=3\\a_2=a_{2-1}-3=a_1-3\to a_2=3-3=0\\a_3=a_2-1\to a_3=0-3=-3\\a_4=a_3-3\to a_4=-3-3=-6

====================================

\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}a_1=2\\a_n=a_{n-1}+0.5\end{array}\right\\\\a_1=2\\a_2=a_{2-1}+0.5=a_1+0.5\to a_2=2+0.5=2.5\\a_3=a_2+0.5\to a_3=2.5+0.5=3\\a_4=a_3+0.5\to a_4=3+0.5=3.5

Answer:

First equation : 3, 0, -3, -6

Second equation : 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

What the first equation is basically saying is subtract 3 each time.

What the second equation is basically saying is add 0.5 each time.

Then we just add/subtract to find the first four terms.

Which equation is the equivalent form of 20(3)^5x = 820?
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

x=ln(41)/ln(243)

Step-by-step explanation:

20(3)^5x=820

3^5x=820/20

3^5x=41

5x=ln(41)/ln(3)

x=(1/5)[ln(41)/ln(3)]

x=ln(41)/ln(3^5)

x=ln(41)/ln(243)

A house was valued at $100,000 in the year 1987. The value appreciated to $165,000 by the year 2002.
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

  A) The annual multiplier was 1.0339; the annual increase was 0.0339 of the value.

  B) 3.39% per year

  C) $182,000

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Let's let t represent years since 1987. Then we can fill in the numbers and solve for r.

  165000 = 100000(1 +r)^15

  1.65^(1/15) = 1 +r . . . . . divide by 100,000; take the 15th root

  1.03394855265 -1 = r ≈ 0.0339

The value was multiplied by about 1.0339 each year.

__

B) The value increased by about 3.39% per year.

__

C) S = $100,000(1.03394855265)^18 ≈ $182,000

What's is the converse of the statement?If x is odd, then 2x is even.
dsp73
If you have two statements p and q and p\Rightarrow q is true, then  \neg q\Rightarrow \neg p is also true.

In your case, statements are p - "x is odd" and q -  "2x is even".

 Then \neg p - "x is not odd" and \neg q - "2x is not even."


Hence \neg q\Rightarrow \neg p sounds as: "If 2x is not even, then x is not odd".
Answer: correct choice is D.
