Answer:

The answer is option (C)=an-1+7

Step-by-step explanation:

A recursive rule is a formula that in which each term is expressed as a function of its preceding term(s), meaning in order to get to the nth term you have to express it in a form of the term that comes before it. In our case the a(n-1) term

So for the sequence -9, -2, 5, 12

The nth term is any number on the sequence and

  • -2 is the a(n-1) term for -9
  • 5 is the a(n-1) term for -2
  • 12 is the a(n-1) term for 5

So we need to find out what we have to do to the preceding term to get the next.

To get -2 from -9 we have to add 7 to -9; -9+7=-2

To get 5 from -2 we have to add 7 to -2; -2+7=5

To get 12 from 5 we add 7 to 5; 7+5=12

So the recursive rule would be= a n-1+7

Mr. Owens' printer can print 55 pages in 30 minutes. How many pages can it print In 1 hour?
miskamm [114]

Answer:

110 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of 55 pg in 30 minutes is given in "minutes".

Thus,

we need to convert 1 hour to minutes.

We know 1 hour = 60 minutes

Note: 30 mins * 2 = 60 minutes

Logically, 30 minutes makes 55 pages, so 60 minutes (30 * 2) will make 55 * 2 = 110 pages

So, in 1 hour, it can print 110 pages (at this rate)

Answer:

The student is wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

To divide exponents (or powers) with the same base, subtract the exponents.  In the second step, the wrong result is calculated.

\frac{x^{\frac{6}{5}}}{x^{\frac{2}{5}}} = x^{\frac{4}{5}}

Aubrey's parents are signing her up for summer camps. If there are 5 weeklong camps to choose from, in how many orders can they
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

This can be done in a total of 10 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a selection problem.

What we are trying to do is to properly select 3 week long camps from the total 5. we are looking for the number of ways in which we can do this.

Now, since this is a selection problem, the proper mathematical term and approach to use is the COMBINATION

Mathematically, having r items to pick from a total n, the number of ways to do this is nCr ways

which is mathematically equivalent to;

n!/(n-r)!r!

now applying this to the problem at hand, what we have is 5C3

= 5!/(5-3)!3! = 5!/2!3! = (5 *4)/2 = 20/2 = 10 ways
