Answer: an = 4 × 5^(n - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given sequence is a geometric sequence because consecutive terms differ by a common ratio. The

formula for determining the nth term of a geometric progression is expressed as

an = a1r^(n - 1)

Where

a1 represents the first term of the sequence.

r represents the common ratio.

n represents the number of terms.

From the information given,

a1 = 4

r = 20/4 = 100/20 = 5

Therefore, the explicit formula for the sequence is

an = 4 × 5^(n - 1)

kati45 [8]

Answer:

7,14,21,28,35,42,49 are all dividible by 7. That are 7 Numbers. However we are looking for All the Numbers that are not a multiple of 7.

So 50-7=43.

There are 43 Numbers which are not a multiple of 7.

So 43/50=0.86

The probability is 0.86 or a 86% chance that the generator will select a Number which is not a multiple of 7.

Graph the following: y = -4x – 1.
Zina [86]

This is a line portrayed in point-slope form.

First, put a point at (0, -1). This is your y-intercept.

Next, go down 4 units and to the right one unit. Place a point at (1, -4). Then go down another 4 units and right once more. Place a point at (2, -8).

Now, go back to your y-intercept and go up 4 units and to the left one unit. Place a point at (-1, 3).

Finally, draw a line connecting all your points.
