Step-by-step explanation:

1. Distribute the -2. multiply-2 with 5x and 8. it will be -10x-16=14+6x. For me, i make small numbers negative or positive than big ones. Add 16 to both sides. it will be -10x=30+6x. Subtract 6x. -10x-6x=-16x. Divide both sides by 16. x=30/16= 1 and 14/16

Write a recursive formula and an explicit formula for the following arithmetic sequence.
xenn [34]

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the sequence

11, 13, 15, 17, 19, ...

Determining the Recursive formula:

We know that a recursive formula is termed as a formula that specifies each term of the given sequence using the preceding terms.

From the given sequence it is clear that every term can be obtained by adding two to the previous term.

i.e. 13 = 11+2, 15 = 13+2, 17 = 15+2, 19 = 17+2

so

aₙ₊₁ = aₙ+2, for n ≥1

Therefore, a recursive formula is:

  • aₙ₊₁ = aₙ+2, for n ≥1

Determining the Explicit formula:

Given the sequence

11, 13, 15, 17, 19, ...

An arithmetic sequence has a constant difference 'd' and is defined by  

a_n=a_1+\left(n-1\right)d

computing the differences of all the adjacent terms

3-11=2,\:\quad \:15-13=2,\:\quad \:17-15=2,\:\quad \:19-17=2

The difference between all the adjacent terms is the same and equal to

d=2

also

a_1=11

so substituting d=2, a_1=11 in the nth terms

a_n=a_1+\left(n-1\right)d

a_n=2\left(n-1\right)+11

a_n=2n+9

Therefore, the Explicit formula is:

a_n=2n+9
