Answer:

64

Step-by-step explanation:

4 litters each which is equal to 4 babies equal 16 babies per year. 16 multiplied by 4 years is 64.

State whether each sequence is arithmetic and justify your answer. If the sequence is arithmetic, write a recursive and an expli

nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

Part A

$f(n)=52-12(n-1)$

$f(n)=\left\{\begin{matrix}52\: \:if \: \:n=1 & \\f(n+1)+12& if\: n\geq 2 \end{matrix}\right.$

Part B

$(2,4,8,16,32)\: \:$ Geometric Sequence

Part C

1/4,3/4,5/4,7/4,9/4

$g(n)=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{2}{4}(n-1)\\f(n)=\left\{\begin{matrix}1/4if \: \:n=1 & \\ f(n+1)+2/4& if\: n\geq 2 \end{matrix}\right$

Part D:

$h(n)=1.1+0.4(n-1)\\h(n)=\left\{\begin{matrix}1.1 & if\:n=1 \\ h(n+1)+0.4 & if\:n\geq 2\end{matrix}\right$

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, an Arithmetic Sequence holds the same difference between each following number.

Part A

$(52,40, 28, 16)\\52-40=12\\40-28=12\\28-16=12\\d=12$

<u>Explicit Formula</u>

To write an explicit formula is to write it as function.

$f(n)=52-12(n-1)$

<u>Recursive Formula</u>

To write it as recursive formula, is to write it as recurrence given to some restrictions:

$f(n)=\left\{\begin{matrix}52\: \:if \: \:n=1 & \\f(n+1)+12& if\: n\geq 2 \end{matrix}\right.$

Part B

$(2,4,8,16,32)\: \:$

Geometric Sequence, since 2*2=4 8*2=16 and 16*2=32 and 8+2=10 8+16=24

Part C

$(\frac{1}{4},\frac{3}{4},\frac{5}{4},\frac{7}{4},\frac{9}{4})\\\$

Arithmetic Sequence, difference

$d=\frac{2}{4}$

<u>Explicit Formula:</u>

$g(n)=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{2}{4}(n-1)$

<u>Recursive Formula</u>

$g(n)=\left\{\begin{matrix}\frac{1}{4} &if\:n=1 \\ g(n+1)+\frac{2}{4} &if\: n\geq 2\end{matrix}\right.$

Part D

(1.1,1.5,1.9,2.3,2.7) Arithmetic Sequence, difference d=0.4

<u>Explicit formula</u>

$h(n)=1.1+0.4(n-1)\\$

<u>Recursive Formula</u>

$h(n)=\left\{\begin{matrix}1.1 &if\:n=1 \\ h(n+1)+0.4 &if\: n\geq 2\end{matrix}\right.$

Workout the median of 83,73,76,72,75,86,79,76

Leto [7]

The median is 76

explanation:
The median is the central number of a data set. Arrange data points from smallest to largest and locate the central number. This is the median. If there are 2 numbers in the middle, the median is the average of those 2 numbers.

If one of the roots of the equation x²- 4x + k=0exceeds the other by 2, then find the roots and determine the value of k

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

roots: 1 and 3

k = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

2 roots: p and p+2

(x-p) (x-p-2) = x² - 4x + k

x² -2px -2x + p² + 2p = x² - 2 (p+1)x + (p² + 2p) = x² -4x + k

-2 (p+1) = -4

p+1 = 2

p = 1 ... root 1

p' = 1+2 = 3 ... root 2

k = p² + 2p = 3

check: (x-1) (x-3) = x² - 4x + 3 = x² - 4x + k
