Answer:

The explicit formula is Tn = 18[(2/3)^(n-1)]

Where n is the term we are looking for

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get an explicit formula to model the equation

Now, F(2) = 2/3 * f1 = 2/3 * 18 = 12

F(3) = 2/3 * f(2) = 2/3 * 12 = 8

F(4) = 2/3 * F(3) = 2/3 * 8 = 16/3

F(5) = 2/3 * 16/3 = 32/9

Thus, seeing how the equations are progressing, we can definitely see a pattern.

That is Tn = (2/3)^(n-1)(18)

1.The amount of space around an object.
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

  1. Mass
  2. Surface area
  3. Volume

Step-by-step explanation:

The size of a surface. The amount of space inside the boundary of a flat (2-dimensional) object such as a triangle or circle, or surface of a solid (3-dimensional) object

<u>Mass </u>

A property of a physical body and a measure of its resistance to acceleration when a net force is applied.

<u>Surface </u>

The area is the sum of the areas of all faces (or surfaces) on a 3D shape. A cuboid has 6 rectangular faces. To find the surface area of a cuboid, add the areas of all 6 faces. We can also label the length (l), width (w), and height (h) of the prism and use the formula, SA=2lw+2lh+2hw, to find the surface area.

<u>Volume </u>

The Measure of the amount of space that a substance or an object takes up.

9 feet above the ground, since it has to be 3 feet away from the wall you would have to subtract those 3 feet from the length of the ladder.

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

Coupon B

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Price = \$450

Coupon\ A = \$80

Coupon\ B = 20.5\%

Required

Which coupon is better

From the question, we have:

Coupon\ A = \$80

Coupon\ B = 20.5\%

Coupon B means that:

Coupon\ B = 20.5\% * \$450

Coupon\ B = 0.205 * \$450

Coupon\ B = \$92.25

By comparison:

Coupon B gives him a better buy because: \$92.25 > \$80
