Hello!
The recursive rule for an arithmetic sequence:
.
The explicit rule for an arithmetic sequence:
.
is the value you are trying to find, or simply the answer. :)
is the common difference of the sequence.
is the first term of the sequence.
Given,
and
...
The common difference is -6, and the first term is 8.
Plug these values into the explicit rule for an arithmetic sequence, you get:
.
Therefore, the answer is A,
.
If you wondered why,
is equal to
, the Commutative Property of Multiplication states that when two numbers are multiplied together, the answer is the same regardless of the order of the numbers, which makes
and
equal to each other.
the answer is 11/6 as a mixed number in simplest form
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
The n th term of a geometric sequence is
= a₁
where a₁ is the first term and r the common ratio, hence
= 6 ×
= 6 × -
= 6 × -
= - 
Answer:
Inverse of g(x)=x+15/3
Step-by-step explanation:
g(x)=3x-15
Let, g(x) be y
y=3x-15
Interchange x and y
x=3y-15
x+15=3y
y=x+15/3
