Q1)
the sequence should start with 10, after that each term is calculated by subtracting 3 from the previous term.
1st term - 10
2nd term - 10 - 3 = 7
3rd term - 7 - 3 = 4
4th term - 4 - 3 = 1
5th term - 1 - 3 = -2
6th term - -2 - 3 = -5
7th term - -5 - 3 = -8
8th - -8 - 3 = -11
9th - -11 - 3 = -14
10th -14 - 3 = -17
the sequence is - 10,7,4,1,-2,-5,-8,-11,-14,-17
Q2)
<span>the sequence whose nth term is the sum of the first n positive integers
In this we get the term by adding all the integers of the terms before that term
1st term - n = 1 no terms before this , therefore 0 + n(1) = 1
2nd term -n =2 sum of integers before - 1 + n( 2) = 3
3rd - 3+3 = 6
4th - 6+4 = 10
5th - 10 + 5 = 15
6th - 15 + 6 = 21
7th - 21 + 7 = 28
8th - 28 + 8 = 36
9th - 36 + 9 = 45
10th - 45 + 10 = 55
this is a triangular number pattern
this number pattern can be found out using ; n = (n x (n+1))/2
sequence is - 1,3,6,10,15,21,28,36,45,55
Q3)
</span>the sequence whose nth term is 3n − 2n
general term for this sequence is 3n − 2n
to find 1st term , n = 1
substituting n = 1 in the general term
1st term - 3x1 - 2x1 = 3-2 = 1
2nd - 3x2- 2x2 = 6 - 4 = 2
3rd - 3x3 - 2x3 = 9-6 = 3
4th - 3x4 - 2x4 = 12 - 8 = 4
5th - 3x5 - 2x5 = 15 - 10 = 5
6th - 3x6 - 2x6 = 18 - 12 = 6
7th - 3x7 - 2x7 = 21 - 14 = 7
8th - 3 x8 - 2x8 = 24 - 16 = 8
9th - 3x9 - 2x9 = 27 - 18 = 9
10th - 3x10 - 2x10 = 30-20 = 10
sequence is 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10
Q4)
<span>the sequence whose nth term is √ n
when n=1 1st term is </span>√1 = 1
1st term - √1 = 1
2nd term - √2 = 1.41
3rd - √3 = 1.73
4th - √4 = 2
5th - √5 = 2.23
6th- √6 = 2.44
7th - √7 = 2.65
8th- √8 = 2.82
9th - √9 = 3
10th - √10 = 3.16
The sequence is 1, 1.41, 1.73, 2, 2.23, 2.44, 2.65, 2.82, 3, 3.16
Q5)T<span>he sequence whose first two terms are 1 and 5 and each succeeding term is the sum of the two previous terms
</span>1st term - 1
2nd term - 5
3rd term - add 1st and 2nd term (1+5) = 6
4th term - add 2nd and 3rd terms (5+6) = 11
5th - add 3rd and 4th (6+11) = 17
6th - (11+17) = 28
7th - (17 + 28) = 45
8th - 45 + 28 = 73
9th - 73 + 45 = 118
10th - 73+ 118 = 191
sequence is - 1,5,6,11,17,28,45,73,118,191
Answer:
3:15 pm
Step-by-step explanation:
You can imagine that they go in a circle (we can do whatever we want in theoretical math and physics). By doing so we know we can obtain a cosinusoidal wave by projecting the motion on a plane. Each one of the buses has a period (minimum time after what they're in the same point again). For the first one it's 15 minutes, for the second one it's 20 minutes. We have to take the least common multiple of the periods, that is 75 minutes. So They'll meet every 75 minutes. Add 75 minutes (1h and 15 minutes) to 2pm and there you go.
