An arithmetic sequence is defined by the recursive formula t1 = 11, tn = tn - 1 - 13, where n ∈N and n > 1. Which of these is

the general term of the sequence? A) tn = 11 - 13(n - 1), where n ∈N and n > 1 B) tn = 11 - 13(n - 2), where n ∈N and n ≥ 1 C) tn = 11 - 13(n - 1), where n ∈N and n ≥ 1 D) tn = 11 - 13(n + 1), where n ∈N and n ≥ 1

ANSWER

The general term of the sequence is.

t_n= 11 - 13(n - 1)

The correct answer is C.

EXPLANATION
The recursive definition of the sequence is given by

t_n=t_{n-1}-13
where
t_1=11

and
n > 1.

When we plug in
n = 2
into the recursive definition, we obtain,

t_2=t_{2-1}-13


\Rightarrow t_2=t_{1}-13

\Rightarrow \: t_2=11-13

t_2= - 2

The Commons difference is
d = - 2 - 11 = - 13

The general term is given by the formula,

t_n= t_1 + (n - 1)d

We substitute the above values to obtain,

t_n= 11 + (n - 1)( - 13)

This implies that,

t_n= 11 - 13(n - 1)

where,
n\in N

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (6,4) and (-3,-7)
ANEK [815]

Answer:

m = 11/9

Step-by-step explanation:

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

= (-7 - 4) / (-3 - 6)

= -11/-9

= 11/9

Pick the correct description of the line 2y = 10
lana [24]
2y = 10
y = 10/2
y = 5 <==horizontal

this is a horizontal line. Anytime you have y = an integer, it is horizontal...and if u have x = an integer, it is a vertical line.

An education firm measures the high school dropout rate as the percentage of 16 to 24 year olds who are not enrolled in school a
posledela

Answer:

The value of the test statistic z = -0.6606

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

      The high dropout rate is \mu  = 6.1%  = 0.061

      The  sample size is  n = 1000

       The  number of dropouts x = 56

       The probability of having a dropout in 1000 people  \= x  = \frac{56}{1000}  =  0.056

Now setting up Test Hypothesis

 Null  H_o :  p = 0.061

 Alternative  H_a : p < 0.061        

The Test statistics is mathematically represented as

                 z = \frac{\= x - p}{\sqrt{\frac{p(1 -p)}{n} } }

substituting values

               z = \frac{0.056 - 0.061}{\sqrt{\frac{0.061(1 -0.061)}{1000} } }

               z = -0.6606

Brigitte is shorter than 5 feet. (Brigitte's height=h). Help please
KonstantinChe [14]

Brigitte is shorter than 5 feet. (Brigitte's height=h)

We write this in  inequality form

Brigitte's height is h

So 'h' is shorter than 5 feet

Shorter means less than so we use < symbol. We should not use = symbol because height is shorter than 5 not equal to 5.

Suppose if it is given ' height is more than 5 feet ' then we use greater than symbol (>)

h is less than 5 feet

h < 5

Inequality is h < 5
