Mathematics

BaLLatris [955]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

6, 10, 8

Step-by-step explanation:

aₙ= aₙ₋₁ - (aₙ₋₂ - 4)= aₙ₋₁ - aₙ₋₂ + 4

a₅= -2

a₆= 0

-----------

aₙ₋₂= aₙ₋₁ - aₙ + 4

  • a₄= a₅- a₆ + 4 = -2 - 0 + 4 = 2
  • a₃= a₄ - a₅ + 4 = 2 - (-2) + 4 = 8
  • a₂= a₃ - a₄ + 4 = 8 - 2 + 4 = 10
  • a₁= a₂ - a₃ + 4 = 10 - 8 + 4 = 6

The first 3 terms: 6, 10 and 8

12.Divide. (x^2+2x+1/x^2-8x+16)/(x+1/x^2-16
lina2011 [118]
For this case we have the following expression:
 (x ^ 2 + 2x + 1 / x ^ 2-8x + 16) / (x + 1 / x ^ 2-16)
 Rewriting we have:
 (((x + 1) (x + 1)) / ((x-4) (x-4))) / (x + 1 / ((x + 4) (x-4)))
 Then, we cancel similar terms:
 ((x + 1) / (x-4)) / (1 / (x + 4))
 Rewriting:
 ((x + 1) (x + 4)) / (x-4)
 Answer:
 
((x + 1) (x + 4)) / (x-4)

The applications that will involve percentages include:

  • Sales Tax
  • Original Sale Price
  • Commission
  • Income Tax

<h3>Which applications involve percentages?</h3>

Sales tax will involve percentage because the sales tax percentage will be needed to calculate the sales tax. The same goes for the income tax.

Commissions also involve percentages as the commission is a percentage of sales. The original sales price can only be acquired by using the discount or markup percentage applied to it to get the current sales price.
