Answer: The first and last options are correct
Explanation:
The recursive formula is written in terms of the previous term of the sequence. From the information given,
the Arnold's are going to save a nickel on the first day of the month and double the amount each day of the month. Thus, the recursive formula would be
where
an - 1 defines a previous term
To write the explicit formula, we would apply the formula for finding the nth term of an arithmetic sequence which is expressed as
An = ar^(n - 1)
where
a is the first term of the sequence
n is the number of terms
r is the common ratio between consecutive terms
Thus,
r = 2 because the amount is doubling each day
n = number of days
a = value of 1 nickel = $0.05
By substituting these values into the formula,
the explicit formula is
A(n) = 0.05(2)^n - 1
The answer is D because, if one of the sides is congruent that means that one side has to mirror the other therefore they can never touch
Answer in fraction form = 1/20
Answer in decimal form = 0.05
Answer in percent form = 5%
These are three ways to express the same thing

Explanation:
Assume the gumball machine only has 5 gumballs, one of each color. The probability of getting yellow is 1/5 since there is one that is yellow out of 5 total.
The probability of getting a lion rubber band is 1/4 for similar reasoning as above.
Because the two events (getting yellow, getting a lion) are independent, this means we can multiply the two probabilities to get (1/5)*(1/4) = 1/20
Use your calculator to see that 1/20 = 0.05 which converts to 5% when you move the decimal point over 2 spots to the right.
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
You do 8 by 13 which is 104 now multiply that by 3 which is 312 then divide by 2 because it triangular
