Find the explicit formula for the arithmetic sequence -2,-14,-26,-38

Mathematics
1 answer:
dimulka [17.4K]3 years ago

Answer:

\large\boxed{a_n=10-12n}

Step-by-step explanation:

It's an arithmetic sequence.

-14-(-2)=-14+2=-12\\-26-(-14)=-26+14=-12\\-38-(-26)=-38+26=-12

The difference is constant.

The explicit formula of an arithmetic sequence:

a_n=a_1+(n-1)d

Substitute:

a_1=-2,\ d=-12

a_n=-2+(n-1)(-12)        <em>use distributive property</em>

a_n=-2-12n+12\\\\a_n=(-2+12)-12n\\\\a_n=10-12n

Find tan , sin , and seco, where 0 is the angle shown in the figure.
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

  • tan(θ) = 5/3
  • sin(θ) = 5√34/34
  • sec(θ) = √34/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypotenuse is given by the Pythagorean theorem:

  h = √(3² +5²) = √34

The trig functions are the ratios of sides:

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

  tan(θ) = 5/3

__

  Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse

  sin(θ) = 5/√34 = (5/34)√34

__

  Sec = Hypotenuse/Adjacent

  sec(θ) = √34/3

A cable TV/Internet/phone provider charges new customers $90 for all three services, per month, for the first year
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

49%

Step-by-step explanation:

First find how much Alice is paying for the all three service currently.

Amount paid by Alice at present= 59 +  49 + 69 = $ 177

If she switches to 90 NOW plan, then the amount saved = 177 - 90 = $ 87

Percentage of savings = (saved amount ÷ total amount she was paying at present) * 100

          = \frac{87}{177}* 100\\\\= 49.15

          = 49 %
