Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
The n th term ( explicit formula ) of an arithmetic sequence is
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Given a₁₂ = - 95 and a₃₇ = - 270 , then
a₁ + 11d = - 95 → (1)
a₁ + 36d = - 270 → (2)
Subtract (1) from (2) term by term to eliminate a₁
25d = - 175 ( divide both sides by 25 )
d = - 7
Substitute d = - 7 into (1) and solve for a₁
a₁ + 11(- 7) = - 95
a₁ - 77 = - 95 ( add 77 to both sides )
a₁ = - 18 , thus
= - 18 - 7(n - 1) = - 18 - 7n + 7 = - 7n - 11
= - 7n - 11 ← explicit formula
--------------------------------------------------------------
The recursive formula allows a term in the sequence to be found by adding the common difference d to the previous term, thus
=
- 7 with a₁ = - 18 ← recursive formula
Answer:
36:39
= 36/39 (divide by 3)
= 12/13
= <u>12:13 (option C)</u>
For question 6 the answer is 100 because a quarter of a circle is 90 degrees
The slope is 1/3 because slope is rise over run so you go up one unit and go right three units.
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
plug in (3,2) to see if it's a solution:
A) does -3(3) + 2 equal -7? yes
B) since 'A' is a solution then 'B' cannot be the answer
C) since (3,2) is a solution then 'C' cannot be the answer
plug in (2,-1) to see if it's a solution:
plug in (2,-1) to see if it's a solution:
-3(2) - (-1) equal -7? no, it equals -5
only (3,2) is a solution so the answer is D
