Sequence 2, - 4, 8, -16, 32 ....

First term = a = 2

Problem

Find the nth term

tn = (-1 )^(n -1) * (a)^n answer or

tn = (-1)^(n - 1) * 2^n

where a is defined as the first term (it usually is given that designation).

Try a few to make sure the formula is correct

<em>n = 1</em>

t1 = (-1)^(1 - 1) * 2^1

t1 = (-1)^0 * 2

t1 = 1 * 2 = 2

<em>n =2</em>

t2 = (-1)^(2 - 1) * 2^2 = (-1)^1 * 4 = -4

Help plz will mark Brainly
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

126 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

If your drawing is on a 1 : 40 scale, to find the scale's height, divide the ride's height by 40.

420 / 40 = 10.5

So the drawing will be 10.5 feet tall.

To convert 10.5 feet to inches, multiply it by 12.

10.5 * 12 = 126 inches

What is the answer to 4x²+7=31
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer: x2= 6

FYI: The x2 is x squared

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

4x2 + 7 = 31

Reorder the terms:

7 + 4x2 = 31

Solving

7 + 4x2 = 31

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-7' to each side of the equation.

7 + -7 + 4x2 = 31 + -7

Combine like terms: 7 + -7 = 0

0 + 4x2 = 31 + -7

4x2 = 31 + -7

Combine like terms: 31 + -7 = 24

4x2 = 24

Divide each side by '4'.

x2 = 6

Simplifying

x2 = 6
