Answer:
12 mathletes is needed to solve 30 problems in 5 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
8 athletes can solve 20 problems in 10 minutes
30-20=10
now we need 10 more problems to be solved so
20/2=10. 8/2=4 so we need more 4 mathletes to solve all the problems
A recursive sequence is a sequence of numbers whose values are determined by the numbers that come before them in the sequence.
We’re given a sequence whose (n + 1)-th term f(n + 1) depends on the value of the n-th term f(n), specified by the recursive rule
f(n + 1) = -4 f(n) + 3
We’re also given the 1st term in the sequence, f(1) = 1. Using this value and the recursive rule, we can find the next term f(2). (Just replace n with 1.)
f(1 + 1) = -4 f(1) + 3
f(2) = -4 • 1 + 3
f(2) = -1
We do the same thing to find the next term f(3) :
f(2 + 1) = -4 f(2) + 3
f(3) = -4 • (-1) + 3
f(3) = 7
One more time to find the next term f(4) :
f(3 + 1) = -4 f(3) + 3
f(4) = -4 • 7 + 3
f(4) = -25
The answer is 3.785, but rounding it to the nearest hundredth is 3.78 or 3.79, depending on rather they wanted you to take the 5 and round up or just leave it off.
