Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
In general for arithmetic sequences, recursive formulas are of the form
aₙ = aₙ₋₁ + d,
and the explicit formula (like tₙ in your problem), are of the form
aₙ = a₁ + (n - 1)d,
where d is the common difference. So converting between the two of these isn't so bad. In this case, your problem wants you to have an idea of what t₁ is (well, every answer says it's -5, so there you are) and what tₙ₊₁ is. Using the formulas above and your given tₙ = -5 + (n - 1)78, we can see that the common difference is 78, so no matter what we get ourselves into, the constant being added on at the end should be 78. That automatically throws out answer choice D.
But to narrow it down between the rest of them, you want to use the general form for the recursive formula and substitute (n + 1) for every instance of n. This will let you find tₙ₊₁ to match the requirements of your answer choices. So
tₙ₊₁ = t₍ₙ₊₁₎₋₁ + d ... Simplify the subscript
tₙ₊₁ = tₙ + d
Therefore, your formula for tₙ₊₁ = tₙ + 78, which is answer choice C.
Yes, it is an equivalent expression because even though you move two pieces of an equation it will still equal the same thing, unless there are parentheses involved.
Answer:
Domain : all real numbers
Range: All numbers greater than 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The shark. (Haha, I'm sorry.)
There are no restrictions on the x. X can be any real number.
The range, however, does have restrictions. The range has to be a number greater than 0.
Why?
Because any number that you put in for x won't make the range less than 2. If you put in zero for x, the range is 2.
The area shaded in green is 864 cm²
<h3>Similar figures</h3>
Similar figures, corresponding angles are congruent and the sides are ratio of each other. Therefore,
AB / PQ = CD / RS
30 / 10 = 24 / RS
30RS = 240
RS = 240 / 30
RS = 8 cm
let find the height of trapezium PQRS.
AB / PQ = 36 / h
30 / 10 = 36 / h
30h = 360
h = 360 / 30
h = 12 cm
Therefore,
area of the green portion = area of ABCD - area of PQRS
<h3>Area of a trapezium</h3>
Therefore,
area of ABCD = 1 / 2(24 + 30)36 = 1 / 2 (54)36 = 1944 / 2 = 972 cm²
area of PQRS = 1 / 2(10 + 8)12 = 1 / 2(18)12 = 216 / 2 = 108 cm²
Area of the green portion = 972 - 108 = 864 cm²

The tangent function gives the ratio of vertical to horizontal distance in this case.
.. vertical distance = (horizontal distance)*tan(angle of depression)
.. = (40 m)*tan(50°)
.. vertical distance ≈ 47.7 m
