Given data :
a₃ = 9/16
aₓ = -3/4 · aₓ₋₁
Where x is the number of terms ('x' is also written as 'n')
To find the 7th term (a₇):

We know that aₓ = -3/4 · aₓ₋₁
So,
a₃ = -3/4 · a₃₋₁
a₃ = -3/4 · a₂
9/16 = -3/4 · a₂
a₂ = 9/16 × -4/3
a₂ = -36/48
a₂ = -3/4

Again,
aₓ = -3/4 · aₓ₋₁
a₄ = -3/4 · a₄₋₁
a₄ = -3/4 · a₃
a₄ = -3/4 · 9/16
a₄ = -27/64
a₄ = -27/64

For a₅,
aₓ = -3/4 · aₓ₋₁
a₅ = -3/4 · a₅₋₁
a₅ = -3/4 · a₄
a₅ = -3/4 × -27/64
a₅ = 81/256

For a₆,
aₓ = -3/4 · aₓ₋₁
a₆ = -3/4 · a₆₋₁
a₆ = -3/4 · a₅
a₆ = -3/4 × 81/256
a₆ = -243/1024

For a₇,
aₓ = -3/4 · aₓ₋₁
a₇ = -3/4 · a₇₋₁
a₇ = -3/4 · a₆
a₇ = -3/4 × -243/1024
a₇ = 729/4096

A square with sides x ft long has a perimeter of 34 1/2 ft. How long are the sides of the square

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

8.625 ft for each side.

Step-by-step explanation:

This one's pretty simple. It's a square, so all of its sides are the same length. It's perimeter is given as 34.5 ft, so all you have to do is divide 34.5 by 4 since squares have 4 sides. 34.5/4 is 8.625, which, rounding to the nearest 1/100th, is 8.63. Rounding to the nearest 1/10th it's 8.6, and rounding to the nearest 1th is 9 (although i doubt saying 1th is right, but just because).

A hotel staff would like to create a circular flower bed for the hotel’s entrance. The flower bed will be enclosed by a border.

kiruha [24]

In order to solve this equation, first we must find the area of the entire circle and then we must find the area that the people like to plant with flowers. So the angle formed between 2 rock paths is 180 degrees. I am hoping that this answer has satisfied your query about this specific question.

You and a group of 7 friends go out for pizza. One large pizza and 3 medium drinks cost $21.96. One large pizza and 6 medium dri

Doss [256]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x = cost of drink

y = total cost

First information: "one large pizza and 3 medium drinks cost $21.96":

3a + b = 21.96

Second information: "one large pizza and 6 medium drinks cost $30.93":

6a + b = 30.93

{3a + b = 21.96

{6a + b = 30.93

{- 3a - b = - 21.96

{6a + b = 30.93

3a = 8.97

a = 2.99

3a + b = 21.96

3•2.99 + b = 21.96

8.97 + b = 21.96

b = 21.96 - 8.97

b = 12.99

Each drink costs $2.99 and each pizza costs $12.99. The linear function rule is:

y = 2.99x + 12.99

I hope I've helped you.

What equation of the line that has a slope of -4 and passes through the point (-2,-5)? Answer ASAP!!

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

Given points are ( -2 , -5 ) and slope ( m) = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

y - y1 = m ( x - x1)

y + 5 = -4 ( x + 2 )

y + 5 = -4x - 8

4x + y +5 + 8 = 0

4x + y +13 = 0 

y = -4x - 13

which is the required equation
