What is the nth term of the arithmetic sequence 7,5,3,1?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Minchanka [31]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

tn = 7 + (n - 1)*(-2) or

tn = 9 - 2n

Step-by-step explanation:

You are (beginning with 7) subtracting 2 from the term to the left.

a = 7

d = -2

tn = a1 + (n - 1)*d

tn = 7 + (n - 1)*(-2)

Try this out on n = 4

t4 = 7 + (4 - 1)*-2

t4 = 7 +  (3) (-2)

t4 = 7 - 6

t4 = 1 just as it says.

More generally

tn = 7 + (n - 1)*-2

tn = 7 + (-2n) + 2

tn = 9 - 2n

Sever21 [200]

The value of f(0) is 12.

<h3>What is graph?</h3>

Graph is a mathematical representation of a network and it describes the relationship between lines and points.

By considering the graph we have to find f(0) which means we have to find that point where x- coordinate is zero.

Also, which shows that 12 the function f(x)

So, taking the point is (0,12) we can get f(0)= 12.

The value of a dirt bike decreases by 15% each year. If you purchased this dirt bike today for $500, to the nearest dollar how m
ANTONII [103]

Right now the dirt bike is worth $500. Next year it will be worth 15% less, or 85% of the current value (because currently it's at 100%, so you would subtract the 15%). To find 85% of the dirt bike's value, you would take $500 and multiply by 85% (or 0.85). This would give you $425 after 1 year. You'd take $425 and multiply that by 85% for the next year, and continue until you reached 5 years of the value decreasing. Does this help?
