<em><u>The recursive formula to find nth term of sequence is:</u></em>

a_n = 4n - 1 \text{ where } n \geq 1 and n  = 1, 2, 3, ....

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given a sequence is:

3, 7, 11, 15, 19, 23, 27, 31, 35

<em><u>Let us find the difference between terms</u></em>

7 - 3 = 4

11 - 7 = 4

15 - 11 = 4

19 - 15 = 4

23 - 19 = 4

27 - 23 = 4

31 - 27 = 4

35 - 31 = 4

Thus the difference between terms is constant

Thus the given sequence is arithmetic sequence

An arithmetic sequence is a sequence of numbers such that the difference of any two successive members of the sequence is a constant

<em><u>The nth term of arithmetic sequence is given by:</u></em>

a_n =a_1+(n-1)d

a_n = the nᵗʰ term in the sequence

a_1 = the first term in the sequence

d = the common difference between terms

Here in the given sequence

d = 4

a_1=3

Substitute in above formula,

a_n = 3 + (n-1)(4)\\\\a_n = 3 + 4n - 4\\\\a_n = 4n - 1

<em><u>Thus the recursive formula to find nth term of sequence is:</u></em>

a_n = 4n - 1 \text{ where } n \geq 1 and n = 1, 2, 3, ......

Harry church borrowed 17,500.00 at 6.5% exact interest. He had to pay back a maturity value of 17,873.97 to pay off the loan. Wh
kirill [66]

Answer:the term of the loan is approximately 4 months

Step-by-step explanation:

The term of the loan means the period for which the loan was given.

We would apply the formula for simple interest which is expressed as

I = PRT/100

Where

P represents the principal

R represents interest rate

T represents time in years

I = interest after t years

From the information given

P = 17500

R = 6.5%

I = total amount paid - principal

I = 17,873.97 - 17,500.00 = 373.97

Therefore

373.97 = (17500 × 6.5 × T)/100

373.97 = 1137.5T

T = 373.97/1137.5

T = 0.32 years

Converting to months, it becomes

0.32 × 12 = 3.84

Approximately 4 months.

PLEASE HELP! I'll give 5 out of 5 stars, give thanks, and give as many points as I can.
Liula [17]

Answer:

\boxed{\boxed{x=\dfrac{\pi}{3}\ \vee\ x=\pi\ \vee\ x=\dfrac{5\pi}{3}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\cos(3x)=-1\iff3x=\pi+2k\pi\qquad k\in\mathbb{Z}\\\\\text{divide both sides by 3}\\\\x=\dfrac{\pi}{3}+\dfrac{2k\pi}{3}\\\\x\in[0,\ 2\pi)

\text{for}\ k=0\to x=\dfrac{\pi}{3}+\dfrac{2(0)\pi}{3}=\dfrac{\pi}{3}+0=\boxed{\dfrac{\pi}{3}}\in[0,\ 2\pi)\\\\\text{for}\ k=1\to x=\dfrac{\pi}{3}+\dfrac{2(1)\pi}{3}=\dfrac{\pi}{3}+\dfrac{2\pi}{3}=\dfrac{3\pi}{3}=\boxed{\pi}\in[0,\ 2\pi)\\\\\text{for}\ k=2\to x=\dfrac{\pi}{3}+\dfrac{2(2)\pi}{3}=\dfrac{\pi}{3}+\dfrac{4\pi}{3}=\boxed{\dfrac{5\pi}{3}}\in[0,\ 2\pi)\\\\\text{for}\ k=3\to x=\dfrac{\pi}{3}+\dfrac{2(3)\pi}{3}=\dfrac{\pi}{3}+\dfrac{6\pi}{3}=\dfrac{7\pi}{3}\notin[0,\ 2\po)
