A[1] = 14 . . . . . . . . . defines the first term
a[n+1] = a[n] -4 . . . says each term is 4 less than the one before it
Answer:
-2
Step-by-step explanation:
When you have equations with smaller number subtracting bigger numbers, it means that you are always going to end up with a negative answer. So if you do 10-8 it would just be 2, but if you flip it , it will be a negative so the the answer would be
8-10= -2
Hope that helped or it probaly just made you more confused lol
The quick way to do this is to multiply the bill by 1, mult. it again by 0.18, and then add the two results together.
Better and faster: Mult. the bill amount ($42.75) by 1.18:
1.18($42.75) = $50.45 (answer)
Answer:
Marco- 10 is the starting value of the population. 2 is the growth rate of "double each day" with d as an exponent.
Isabella- 1 is the starting population. 1+0.2=1.2 is the rate at which it grows each day.
Step-by-step explanation:
Marco's equation should be 
since the bacteria double each day. 10 is the starting value of the population. 2 is the growth rate of "double each day" with d as an exponent. This will double each day because:
Day 1 is 
Day 2 is 
Day 3 is 
Day 4 is 
You'll notice the value doubles each day.
Isabella has a different equation because her population increases by a percentage. We use the simple interest formula to calculate the bacteria's daily increase or interest.
1(1+0.2)d
1 is the starting population.
1+0.2=1.2 is the rate at which it grows each day.
