Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a1 = 6

a2 = -1.2*a_(n-1)

a2 = -1.2*a_1

a2 = -1.2 * 6

a2 = -7.2

a3 = -1.2*a_(n-1)

a3 = -1.2*a_2

a3 = -1.2 * - 7.2

a3 = 8.64

a4 = -1.2 * a_3

a4 = -1.2 * 8.64

a4 = -10.368

Answer:  The correct option is (B) -10.368.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that a sequence is defined b the following :

a_1=6,~~~a_n=-1.2a_{n-1}.

We are to find the 4-th term.

To find the fourth term, we need to start from finding the first term.

If n = 2, then the second term is given by

a_2=-1.2\times a_1=-1.2\times 6=-7.2.

If n = 3, then the third term is given by

a_3=-1.2\times a_2=-1.2\times (-7.2)=8.64.

If n = 4, then the fourth term is given by

a_4=-1.2\times a_3=-1.2\times 8.64=-10.368.

Thus, the fourth term of the given sequence is -10.368.

Option (B) is CORRECT.

Solve the system of equations below. <br> 5x + 2y = 9<br> 2x - 3y = 15
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

(3,-3)

y= -3

x= 3

Step-by-step explanation:

5x+2y=9

2x-3y=15

solve the equation

x=9/5-2/5y

2x-3y=15

substitute the value of x into an equation

2(9/5-2/5y)-3y=15

distribute

18/5-4/5y-3y=15

subtract -4/5 to -3

18/5-19/5y=15

subtract 18/5 from both sides

-19/5=57/5

divide both sides by -19/5

y= -3

substitute the value of y into an equation

x=9/5-2/5(-3)

distribute

x=9/5+6/5

add 9/5 to 6/5

x=3

--------

(3,-3)

--------

Solve the equation 4z^2 + 4z -9 = 0 by completeing the square<br><br><br>​
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

z=(sqrt(10)-1)/2 or z= -(sqrt(10)-1)//2

Step-by-step explanation:

To complete the square, the last term has to be 1. So adding 10 to both sides, we get:

4z^2+4z+1 = 10

Since 4z^2+4z+1=(2z+1)^2,

(2z+1)^2 = 10.

Taking the square root of both sides, we get

2z+1=sqrt(10) or 2z+1=-sqrt(10)

So z=(sqrt(10)-1)/2 or z= -(sqrt(10)-1)//2
