Use the recursive formula to find the first five terms in the arithmetic sequence

Norma-Jean [14]3 years ago

Answer:

OPTION A

Step-by-step explanation:

The first term in the Arithmetic progression is f(1) = 3.

The general term is given to be: f(n) = f(n - 1) - 2

Therefore, to find second term, simply substitute n = 2 and so on.

So, Second term = f(2) = f(2 - 1) - 2

⇒ f(2) = f(1) - 2

= 3 - 2

= -1

Third term: n = 3

⇒ f(3) = f(3 - 1) - 2

         = f(2) - 2

         = -1 - 2

         = - 3

Similarly, fourth term, f(4) = f(3) - 2

  = - 3 - 2

  = -5

And fifth term f(5) = f(4) - 2

= - 5 - 2

= - 7

Hence, OPTION A is the answer.

Answer:

assuming its an annual interest

Okay so 6 percent interest, the bank is paying you.
So with this it’s 6 percent of 1500 and add it to 1500.

You can always find 6 percent of 1500 and then add but here’s a short cut.
Your principle (beginning) balance is 1500.
That’s already 100 percent since thats yoru original value.
You then get added 6 percent interest.
We are jsut adding 6 percent to 100 percent so 106 percent.
Now we solve normally and you’d get the answer faster.

106 percent is 106/100 or 1 3/5 or 1.06

now we multiply
1500 * 1.06 = 1590

Your final balance would be 1590 after the 6 percent interest is added.

Hi there! I can help you! 8 + (-9) + (-2). When adding negative integers, you have to subtract. 8 - 9 is -1 and -1 - 2 is -3. You would have to start at 8 and go to the left 11 times to land on -3. The sum to the problem is -3.

The scores on a psychology exam were normally distributed with a mean of 60 and a standard deviation of 10 . A failing grade on
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

The cutoff for a failing score was 40,

Approximately 2.3% of the students failed. ​

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Mean, \mu=60

Standard deviation, \sigma=10

Let x represents the cutoff for a failing score,

Thus, according to the question,

\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=-2

\frac{x-60}{10}=-2

x-60=-20

x=-20+60

x=40

Thus, the cutoff for a failing score is 40,

∵ P(<-2) = 0.02275 = 2.275 % ≈ 2.3 %

Hence, Approximately 2.3 % of the students failed. ​
