Recursive formula is one way of solving an arithmetic sequence. It contains the initial term of a sequence and the implementing rule that serve as a pattern in finding the next terms. In the problem given, the 6th term is provided, therefore we can solve for the initial term in reverse. To make use of it, instead of multiplying 1.025, we should divide it after deducting 50 (which supposedly is added).
<span>
Therefore, we perform the given formula: A (n) = <span>1.025(an-1) + 50
</span></span>a(5) =1.025 (235.62) + 50 = 291.51

a(4) = 1.025 (181.09) + 50 = 235.62

a(3) = 1.025 (127.89) + 50 = 181.09

a(2) = 1.025 (75.99) + 50 = 127.89

a(1) = 1.025 (25.36) + 50 = 75.99

a(n) = 25.36

The terms before a(6) are indicated above, since a(6) is already given.

So, the correct answer is <span>A. $25.36, $75.99.</span>

My product is 30. The differencd of the two factors is 1. The zum of the two factors is 11. What numbers am i
timurjin [86]
A * b = 30
a - b = 1
a + b = 11

take ur last 2 equations, and add them
a - b = 1
a + b = 11
--------------add
2a = 12
a = 12/2
a = 6

now its just a matter of subbing
a + b = 11
6 + b = 11
b = 11 - 6
b = 5

so a = 6 and b = 5...whose product is 30, whose difference is 1, and whose sum is 11.

Advocard [28]

Answer:

$226,300

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Allowance for Doubtful Accounts is estimated as $205,000 and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts has a debit balance of $21,300

#The  amount of the adjusting entry for uncollectible accounts is calculated as below:

Adjustment \ Cost=Allowance\ Doubtful\ Accounts +Doubtful \ Accounts \ Debit \ Balance\\\\=205000+21300\\\\\$226,300

Hence,  the amount of the adjusting entry for uncollectible accounts is $226,300

12 (2 -2)+32 = (x +6) +2
Anestetic [448]

Answer: x = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there! I will give the following steps, if you have any questions feel free to ask me in the comments below.

<u>Step 1:</u><u> </u><u><em>Remove parentheses.</em></u>

12 (2 − 2) + 32 = x + 6 + 2

<u>Step 2:</u><u> </u><u><em>Simplify 2 − 2 to 0.</em></u>

12 × 0 + 32 = x  + 6 + 2

<u>Step 3:</u><u> </u><u><em>Simplify 12 × 0 to 0.</em></u>

0 + 32 = x +  6 + 2

<u>Step 4:</u><u> </u><u><em>Simplify 0 + 32 to 32.</em></u><em> </em>

32 = x + 6 + 2

<u>Step 5:</u><u> </u>x<u><em> + 6 + 2 to </em></u>x<u><em> + 8.</em></u>

32 = x + 8

<u>Step 6:</u><u> Subtract 8 from both sides.</u>

32 − 8 = x

<u>Step 7:</u><u> Simplify 32 − 8 to 24.</u>

24 = x

<u>Step 8:</u><u> </u><u><em>Switch sides.</em></u>

x = 24

~I hope I helped you! :)~
