Answer:
4th term = 28
5th term = 37
6th term = 45
Step-by-step explanation:
f(n + 1) = f(n) + 8
f(1) = 5
f(1 + 1) = f(1) + 8 = 5+8 = 13
f(2) = 13
f(2 + 1) = f(2) + 8 = 13+8 = 21
Thus, series is 5, 13, 21......
In arithmetic series
Nth term is given by
n th term = a + (n-1)d
where a is the first term
and d is the common difference.
common difference d = nth term - (n-1)th term
For this series
a = 5
lets take nth term as 2nd term and 1st term as (n-1)th term
d = 13-5 = 8
n th term = a + (n-1)d
using the formula for nth term
4th term = 5 + (4-1)8 = 29
5th term = 5 + (5-1) 8= 37
6th term = 5+ (6-1)8 = 45
Thus, 4th term = 28
5th term = 37
6th term = 45
Note this, problem can be solved using f(n + 1) = f(n) + 8 by putting n = 3,4,5 as well but for learning concept of arithmetic series, i have used above process. Hope it helps.
Given
d(t) = 0.8t ^2
t= 5 secs
d(5) = 0.8(5)^2 = 0.8 * 25 = 20
t= 10 secs
d(10) = 0.8(10)^2 = 0.8 * 100 = 80
20 m / 5 secs = 4 meters per sec
80 m / 10 sec = 8 meters per sec
4 mps + 8 mps = 12 mps
12 mps / 2 = 6 mps
6 mps is the average speed of the rock between 5 and 10 sec after being dropped
3/8=0.375
2/5=0.4
0.38=0.38
0.375<0.38<0.4
therefore: 3/8,0.38,2/5
*Remember that you can convert fractions to decimals by dividing the numerator by the denominator! This makes it much easier to compare :)
That’s what u got I don’t know if there’s another answer
