In this case, you want to divide the total distance (1,256) by the amount of distance travelled each day (314).

Think of division like I do, using A, B, and C. It may sound confusing at first but labelling them is quite easy.

My equation would go something like this:
A x B = C
Or:
C = A × B (or B x A)
Then:
C ÷ B = A (or A = B)

A is the amount of distance travelled per day and C is the total amount of distance travelled. We need to find B, which is the number of days it took to drive 1,256 miles.

Plot it like this:
314 x B = 1,256

By that point, you start dividing like the equation I mentioned before.
C ÷ A = B
1,256 ÷ 314 = B

If you calculate it the right way, you should get a solid 4 as the answer.

The equation will look like:
314 x 4 = 1,256.

The process I explained may sound a bit complex, but it's actually much simplier. Just plot A, B and C, and make an equation that makes sense with multiplication and division.

I really hope this helps you in the future!

Using the recurrence relation s(1) = 2 and s(2)=3, s(k) =s(k-1)+2s(k-2)+6, find the fourth term
HACTEHA [7]

Recurrence functions are used to preedict the subsequent value in a sequence. The fourth term of the sequence based on the recurrence relation is 25

<h3>How to find the recurrence relation of a function?</h3>

Given the recurrence relations according to the question

s(1) = 2 and

s(2)=3

s(k) =s(k-1)+2s(k-2)+6

If s(1) = 2, hence;

s(3) =s(3-1)+2s(3-2)+6

s(3) = s2 + 2s1 + 6
s(3) = 3 + 2(2) + 6
s(3) = 13

Determine the fourth term:

s(4) =s(4-1)+2s(4-2)+6

s(4) = s3 + 2s2 + 6
s(4) = 13 + 2(3) + 6
s(4) = 25

Hence the fourth term of the sequence based on the recurrence relation is 25

2/3 of the cost of the sweater is $18
blagie [28]
The total of the sweater is $27. 
Divide 18/1 by 2/3. You would get 27. Which means 1/3 of the sweater is $9. 
And 2/3 would be $18.
