Enter the explicit rule for the sequence

Mathematics
1 answer:
Softa [21]3 years ago
8 0
Let's take a look at the first few numbers in the sequence based on the given rule:

a_{1}=6\\ a_{2}= \frac{1}{4}(6)\\ a_3= \frac{1}{4}\big( \frac{1}{4}\big)6= \big(\frac{1}{4}\big)^2(6)\\ a_{4}= \frac{1}{4} \big(\frac{1}{4}\big)^26= \big(\frac{1}{4}\big)^3(6)

Inspecting this pattern it seems like the power \frac{1}{4} is being raised to is always one less than the number of the sequence, so if we were on the nth number in the sequence, that part of the expression would be \big(\frac{1}{4} \big)^{n-1}. We also know that we'll be multiplying whatever we get from that by 6, so we can write the full explicit rule for our sequence as

a_n=6\big( \frac{1}{4} \big)^{n-1}

Where a_n is the nth number in our sequence.

Anton bought a picnic cooler. His total bill, with tax, was $7.95. He paid 6 percent sales tax. How much did he pay for the cool
Rus_ich [418]
7.95 ÷ 1.06 = $7.50

This works as by dividing 7.95 by the percentage multiplier 1.06 it will give you the original amount.

An alternative method is to find out what 100% (7.95) is, then divide by 10 to find 10% and then divide by 10 again to find 1% and then multiply the 1% by 6 and subtracting the answer from 7.95.

Which of the following is the contrapositive of the conditional below?
masha68 [24]

Answer:

If 3 + 4 ≠ 6, then 2 · 5 = 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

To form the contrapositive of the conditional statement, interchange the hypothesis and the conclusion of the inverse statement. The contrapositive of "If it rains, then they cancel school" is "If they do not cancel school, then it does not rain." If p , then q .
