sum = x(n+1)/2

where x is the number of the term ( in this case 52)

n is the last number in the series( which is not given in the problem)

Find the first four terms of the sequence<br> An=2a n-1,where a1=3

yKpoI14uk [10]

The first four terms of the sequence are 3 , 6 , 12 , 24

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the first four terms of the sequence $a_{n}=2a_{n-1}$

where $a_{1}=3$ to find them do that

Substitute n by 2 in the rule to find $a_{2}$
Substitute n by 3 in the rule to find $a_{3}$
Substitute n by 4 in the rule to find $a_{4}$

∵ $a_{n}=2a_{n-1}$

- Substitute n by 2 to find the 2nd term

∴ $a_{2}=2a_{2-1}$

∴ $a_{2}=2a_{1}$

∵ $a_{1}=3$

∴ $a_{2}=2(3)$

∴ $a_{2}=6$

- Substitute n by 3 to find the 3rd term

∴ $a_{3}=2a_{3-1}$

∴ $a_{3}=2a_{2}$

∵ $a_{2}=6$

∴ $a_{3}=2(6)$

∴ $a_{3}=12$

- Substitute n by 4 to find the 4th term

∴ $a_{4}=2a_{4-1}$

∴ $a_{4}=2a_{3}$

∵ $a_{3}=12$

∴ $a_{4}=2(12)$

∴ $a_{4}=24$

The first four terms of the sequence are 3 , 6 , 12 , 24

Robert believes that the lengths 8 in, 13 in, and 20 in will form a triangle. Is he correct?

adell [148]

Answer: I think it’s D

Step-by-step explanation:

it’s because 8^2 + 13^2 equals 233 and when square rooted equals 15.26 not 20 so no.
