Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Birth Rate in 1994 = 14.6 births per thousand population.
Birth Rate in 2004 = 14.32 births per thousand population.
A linear equation is of the form: y=mx+c
Where:
- x=years after 1994
- y=the birth rate
- m=Yearly Birth Rate
First, we determine the birth rate per year
Therefore, a linear equation that relates y in terms of x is of the form:
When x=0, y=14.6
14.6=-0.028(0)+c
c=14.6
Therefore, the linear equation that relates y in terms of x is:
well, the recursive rule of aₙ = aₙ₊₁ + 7, where a₁ = 15, is simply saying that
we start of at 15, and the next term is obtained by simply adding 7, and so on.
well, that's the recursive rule.
so then let's use that common difference and first term for the explicit rule.
