Find a recursive formula for the sequence:<br><br> 1, -1, -7, -25
Mumz [18]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

a_n=3a_{n-1}-4

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

<em>Try the answers</em>

You can try the answers to see what works. You can expect all of the choices to match the first two terms, so try some farther down. Let's see if we can get -25 from -7.

a) 3*(-7) -4 = -21 -4 = -25 . . . . this one works

b) -7 -2 = -9 . . . . ≠ -25

c) -3(-7) +2 = 21 +2 = 23 . . . . ≠ -25

d) -2(-7) +1 = 14 +1 = 15 . . . . ≠ -25

The formula that works is the first one.

_____

<em>Derive it</em>

All these formulas depend on the previous term only, so we can write equations that show the required relationships. Let the unknown coefficients in our recursion formula be p and q, as in ...

a_n=p\cdot a_{n-1}+q

Then, to get the second term from the first, we have

... 1·p +q = -1

And to get the third term from the second, we have

... -1·p +q = -7

Subtracting the second equation from the first gives ...

... 2p = 6

... p = 3 . . . . . . . this is sufficient to identify the first answer as correct

We can find q from the first equation.

... q = -1 -p = -1 -3 = -4

So, our recursion relation is ...

a_n=3a_{n-1}-4

An item was sold at a loss of 20%. Had it been sold for Rs 3000more then the profit would have been 10%. What is the cost price
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

Cost Price = Rs 10000

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume:

Cost of the item = x

Item was sold at a loss of 20%:

Loss = 20% of x = 0.2x

Item sold = x - 0.2x = 0.8x

Item sold at a profit of 10%:

Profit = 10% of x = 0.1x

item sold = x + 0.1x = 1.1x

Solve:

Difference = 1.1x - 0.8x = 0.3x

0.3x = Rs 3000

x = Rs 3000 ÷ 0.3

x = Rs 10000

Write the equation of the line that passes through the given points. Include your work in your final answer. Type your answer in
Harman [31]
The equation you use for the slope of this kind of problem is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1). x1 is the first X coordinate, x2 is the second, y1 is the first y coordinate, y2 is the second.

(5-3)/(2-2)
2/0
This equation has an UNDEFINED SLOPE, as it is just a vertical line.
