(For question 1 you have to do it yourself, get a ruler and measure the actual length of the drawing, then multiply it by 8 to get the actual dimensions in the exercise. )
Example, if you measure 4 inches, the actual dimension will be 4 x 8 = 32 ft
2. (Scale drawing 1:5 is that every 1 (length units) will be equal to 5(length units) in the actual dimensions)
Model : 3ft ; 7m
Actual : 15ft ; 35m (corresponding)
Actual : 20yd ; 12.5 cm
Model : 4yd ; 2.5 cm
6. 1.5 ft = 1.5 x 12 = 18 inches.
The model is 3 inches, and the actual rose is 18 inches -> The scale of the drawing is 6. (enlargement)
Same goes to the scale factor, but this time is the quotient of the corresponding side -> 3 : 18 = 1:6.
(If I got any parts wrong just tell me, I actually kinda forgot these kind of stuff)
Explicit Formula
Just in case you don't know what this is, the explicit formula is the formula that solves for any term in the series without necessarily knowing what came before the term you are solving.
<em><u>Givens</u></em>
d = t_(n + 1) - t_n You can take any term and the next term for this part of the formula
d = t_3 - t_2
t_3 = 1
t_2 = -7
d = 1 - - 7 = 8
a = -15
<em><u>Formula</u></em>
t_n = a + (n - 1)*d
t_n = -15 + (n - 1)*8
For example find the 5th term.
t_5 = - 15 + (5 - 1)*8
t_5 = - 15 + 4 *8
t_5 = -15 + 32
t_5 = 17 Which is what you have.
Recursive Formula
Computers really like this formula. They use it in what is called a subroutine and they pass values from one part of the program to a subroutine which evaluates the given and sends the result back. I'm telling you all this so you see why you are doing it. The disadvantage of it for humans is that you must know the preceding term to use the recursive formula.
<em><u>Formula</u></em>
t_n = t_(n - 1) + d
<em><u>Example</u></em>
t_6 = t_(6 - 1) + d
t_6 = t_5 + 8
t_6 = 17 + 8
t_6 = 25
You can check this by using the explicit formula.
Step-by-step explanation:
-4(4x-9)=2x
-16x+36= 2x
-16x - 2x = -36
-18x = -36
x = 2
Subtract 1 from +1 and 0 and then divide the negative from x and -1 which gives u with x=1
