What is the recursive rule for this geometric sequence? 27,  9,  3,  1,  ... Enter your answers in the boxes.
ANEK [815]

Answer:

a_n=a_{n-1}(\frac{1}{3})\\a_1=27

Step-by-step explanation:

A recursive formula is a formula in which each term is based on the previous term.

In a geometric sequence, each term is found by multiplying the previous term by a constant.

To get from 27 to 9, then from 9 to 3, etc., we would multiply by 1/3.  This makes the common ratio 1/3.

The recursive formula for a geometric sequence is

a_n=a_{n-1}(r), where a_n represents the general term,  a_{n-1}, represents the previous term, and r represents the common ratio.

Plugging in our values, we have

a_n=a_{n-1}(r)

We also have to indicate what the first term, a₁, is.  In this sequence, it is 21.  This gives us

a_n=a_{n-1}(\frac{1}{3})\\a_1=27

The diameter of a circle has endpoints A(1, 3) and B(4, 7), what is the
lana [24]

Answer:

The circumference of the circle is 5π

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to calculate the diameter  

for this we have to know the distance between A(1, 3) and B(4, 7)

X =  Xb - Xa

X = 4 - 1

X = 3

Y = Yb - Ya

Y = 7 - 3

Y = 4

b - a = (3 , 4)

now that we have the distance of x and r we can calculate its distance using Pythagoras

h = hypotenuse

x = leg 1 = 3

y = leg 2 = 4

h² = x² + y²

we replace the known values

h² = (3)² + (4)²

h² = 9 + 16

h² = 25

h = √25

h = 5

The diameter of the circle is 5

Now we need to calculate the circumferencefor this we need to use the circumferenc formula of a circle:

c = circumference

d = diameter = 5

π = pi

c = π * d

we replace with the known values

c = 5  * π

c = 5π

The circumference of the circle is 5π

Each hat cost $9. Each scarf cost $4 less than each hat. What is the total for 7 hats and 9 scarves? Write a number sentence for
Sladkaya [172]
9xh = total cost of the hat 
9 per hat - 4 = $5 each scarf

h = hat 
s = scarf
(9xh) + (5x s)
(9x7) + (5x9) = 108
