Answer:
f(n)=-5-3n
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the recursive formula of a sequence
f(1)=−8
f(n)=f(n−1)−3
We are to determine an explicit formula for the sequence.
f(2)=f(2-1)-3
=f(1)-3
=-8-3
f(2)=-11
f(3)=f(3-1)-3
=f(2)-3
=-11-3
f(3)=-14
We write the first few terms of the sequence.
-8, -11, -14, ...
This is an arithmetic sequence where the:
First term, a= -8
Common difference, d=-11-(-8)=-11+8
d=-3
The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is determined using the formula:
T(n)=a+(n-1)d
Substituting the derived values, we have:
T(n)=-8-3(n-1)
=-8-3n+3
T(n)=-5-3n
Therefore, the explicit formula for f(n) can be written as:
f(n)=-5-3n
Answer:
b = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
89b = 411 + 34 (445)
89b = 445
b = 5
Assuming that the artist wants to paint 6 sides of the cube, the formula to count the surface area of the cube would be: 6* edge length^2. If the edge length is 10 feet, then the area would be:
area= 6*edge length^2
area= 6* 10^2 feet
area= 6*100feet^2= 600 feet^2
If one gallon of paint can be used for 350 feet^2, the amount of paint needed would be: 600feet^2/ (350ft^2/ gallon)= 1.71 gallon
Answer:
32
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation
and the graph below describe the velocity V in feet per second of a ball <em>t</em> seconds after it is shot into the air.
To find the balls velocity after seven seconds, substitute t = 7 into the function expression:
![V(7)=-32\cdot 7+256\\ \\=-224+256\\ \\=32\ ft/sec](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=V%287%29%3D-32%5Ccdot%207%2B256%5C%5C%20%5C%5C%3D-224%2B256%5C%5C%20%5C%5C%3D32%5C%20ft%2Fsec)
