Answer:

The second term of the sequence is 8  False ⇒ B

The third term of the sequence is 3  True ⇒ A

The fourth term of the sequence is -3  True ⇒ A

Step-by-step explanation:

The form of the recursive rule is:

f(1) = first term; f(n) = f(n - 1) + d, where

  • f(1) is the first term
  • f(n) is the nth term
  • f(n - 1) is the term before the nth term
  • d is the common difference

∵ f(1) = 15, f(n) = f(n - 1) - 6 for n ≥ 2

∴ The first term = 15

∴ d = -6

let us find the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th terms

∵ n = 2

∴ f(2) = f(1) - 6

∵ f(1) = 15

∴ f(2) = 15 - 6 = 9

∴ The second term is 9

∴ The second term of the sequence is 8  False

∵ n = 3

∴ f(3) = f(2) - 6

∵ f(2) = 9

∴ f(3) = 9 - 6 = 3

∴ The third term is 3

∴ The third term of the sequence is 3 True

∵ n = 4

∴ f(4) = f(3) - 6

∵ f(3) = 3

∴ f(4) = 3 - 6 = -3

∴ The fourth term is -3

∴ The fourth term of the sequence is -3 True

16 = 48х - бу<br> can someone tell me how to do this step by step? Thanks :P
kap26 [50]

16=48x-6y

swap the sides of the equation

48x-6y=16

Divide both sides of the equation by 2

24x-3y=8

now we do the same only different way ok

48x-6y=16

Divide both sides of the equation by 2

(48x-6y)÷2=16÷2

Distribute 2 through the parentheses

48x÷2-6y÷2=16÷2

calculate the quotient

48x÷2-6y÷2=8

calculate the quotient

24x-6y÷2=8

calculate the quotient

Answer: 24x-3y=8
