The recursive rule is

.
The iterative rule is

The recursive rule is given by the formula

, where d is the common difference. Our common difference is -4, which gives us the recursive rule above.
The iterative rule begins with the formula

, where a₁ is the first term and d is the common difference. Our first term is 10 and our common difference is -4:
0.48 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1
It is given that the grade(slope) is 4%. This means that for every 100 miles traveled, the elevation changes by 4 miles.
Step 2
Hence for a distance of 12 miles , the elevation changes by 12*4/100 = 48/100 = 0.48 miles. [Using direct proportion]
Down because the slope is negative
Answer:
-2
Step-by-step explanation:
3|x-7|<= 27
then |x-7|<=27/3=9
hence, -9<=x-7<=9
therefore, -2<=x<=16
