Answer:

t(1) = -3.5, Recursive equation is t(n) = t(n-1) + 4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

t(n)=4.5n-8

Let find the sequence

Plug in n=1,2,3,4.....

n=1 t(1)=4.5(1) -8= -3.5

n=2 t(2)=4.5(2) -8= 1

n=3 t(3)=4.5(3) -8= 5.5

n=4 t(4)=4.5(4) -8= 10

so sequence is -3.5, 1, 5.5, 10................

Now we find the common difference

1 - (-3.5) = 4.5

5.5-1 = 4.5

10 - 5.5 = 4.5

common difference d = 4.5

Formula for recursive function is

t(n) = t(n-1) + d

We got d= 4.5

t(n) = t(n-1) + 4.5 , also t(1) = -3.5

Tresset [83]

Answer:

157.44 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Lance is out for sightseeing in Rome.

Lance went to see the Colosseum.

Height of the outer wall of the Colosseum = 48 meters

Unit Conversion formula:

1 meter = 3.28 feet

To find:

Height of the outer wall of the Colosseum in feet.

Solution:

It is simple problem for the conversion of unit where we already know the value in one unit and the conversion formula as well.

We have to simply find how much 48 meters will be when converted in feet.

1 meter = 3.28 feet

48 meter = 48 $\times$ 3.28 = 157.44 feet

The figures below are made out of circles, semicircles, quarter circles, and a square. Find the area and the perimeter of each f

WITCHER [35]

Answer:

Part 1) $A=36(\pi-2)\ cm^2$

Part 2) $P=6(\pi+2\sqrt{2})\ cm$

Step-by-step explanation:

The picture of the question in the attached figure

Part 1) Find the area

we know that

The area of the shape is equal to the area of a quarter of circle minus the area of an isosceles right triangle

$A=\frac{1}{4}\pi r^{2}-\frac{1}{2}(b)(h)$

we have that the base and the height of triangle is equal to the radius of the circle

$r=12\ cm\\b=12\ cm\\h=12\ cm$

substitute

$A=\frac{1}{4}\pi (12)^{2}-\frac{1}{2}(12)(12)\\A=(36\pi-72)\ cm^2$

simplify

Factor 36

$A=36(\pi-2)\ cm^2$

Part 2) Find the perimeter

The perimeter of the figure is equal to the circumference of a quarter of circle plus the hypotenuse of the right triangle

The circumference of a quarter of circle is equal to

$C=\frac{1}{4}(2\pi r)=\frac{1}{2}\pi r$

substitute the given values

$C=\frac{1}{2}\pi (12)\\C=6\pi\ cm$

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

The hypotenuse of right triangle is equal to

$AC=\sqrt{12^2+12^2}\\AC=\sqrt{288}\ cm$

simplify

$AC=12\sqrt{2}\ cm$

Find the perimeter

$P=(6\pi+12\sqrt{2})\ cm$

simplify

Factor 6

$P=6(\pi+2\sqrt{2})\ cm$
