F(n) = 1st term - common difference (n - 1)
The operation is subtraction because the sequence is decreasing.
n = number of the term you are looking for
1st term = 1st number in the sequence, in this case, 16
common difference = difference between one number to the next
f(n) = 16 - 1(n-1)
Assuming we are looking for the 5th term.
f(5) = 16 - 1(5-1)
= 16 - 1(4)
= 16 - 4
= 12 * as you can see, 12 is the 5th term of the sequence.
If you are looking for the equivalent of the nth term, simply substitute n by the number you are looking for and solve the equation.
Answer:
she needs $4.52
Step-by-step explanation:
(9.5*5.50)+x=56.77
52.25+x=56.77
x=56.77-52.25
x=4.52
Answer:
2x (2 or 2/1)
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope is 2/1, or 2x because the height between any two given intercepting points is two times higher than it is far.
Take for example the intercepting points at (6, 1) and (7, 3). Since slope is rise/run, the slope has risen 2 and 'run' 1. This makes the slope 2/1.
