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>

Robert owns a doggy hotel. This is like a kennel but much fancier. Last friday the 14th he had 35 dogs that ate 3/8 of a pound o
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

the 7th

0.007805 or  59 / 756

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the Friday that he needed more pounds, determine the number of pounds he needed per dog for each Friday.

to do this, divide the total pounds by the number of dogs

on the 14th

3/8 ÷ 35 =

3/8 x 1/35 = 3/280

on the 7th

1/2 ÷ 27 =

1/2 x 1/27 = 1/54

to determine which fraction is larger multiply each by 100 to determine its percent

3/280 x 100 = 1.071

1/54 x 100 = 1.852

1/54 is larger. Thus, more pounds was needed on Friday the 7th

the difference between these fractions should be determined  

\frac{1}{54} - \frac{3}{280}

\frac{280 - 162}{1512} = \frac{118}{1512} = 59 / 756
