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.

3. The functions f and g are defined by f: x → ax – b where a and b are constants and g: x → X+4.
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

fg(2) = 9 means that f(g(2)) = 9

We know that g(2) = 6

So f(6) = 9 which means that

6a - b = 9 (note 1)

And we know that g(f(1/2)) = 2

And we know that f(1/2) = 1/2(a) - b

So g(1/2(a) - b) = 2

Meaning that 1/2(a) - b + 4 = 2

So 1/2(a) - b = - 2 (note 2)

Using note 1 and 2 we can solve the equation

11/2(a) = 11 so a = 2 and b = 3

Find the measure of the missing angles.
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

d = 69°, e = 32°, f = 79°

Step-by-step explanation:

the 69° angle and d are vertical angles, so d is 69°.

same with e and the 32° angle, so e is 32°.

the 69° angle and f are on a straight angle, which means they, and e, add up to 180° when combined.

69 + 32 = 101

180 - 101 = 79

so f is 79°.

Translate the verbal statements into a system of linear equations: Fatima invested a total of $1000 in two simple-interest bank
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Translate the verbal statements into a system of linear equations: Fatima invested a total of $1000 in two simple-interest bank accounts. One account paid 5% annual interest; the other paid 6% annual interest. The total amount of interest she earned after 1 year was $56

Simple interest formula =

I = PRT

We are to find the Amount = Principal invested

For Account 1

I1 = P × 5% × 1

= 0.05P

Account 2

I2 = P × 6% × 1

= 0.06P

Therefore:

0.05P + 0.06P = $56
