we'd do the same as before on this one as well.

if we take 27.99 to be the 100%, what is 12 off of it in percentage?

\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 27.99&100\\ 12&x \end{array}\implies \cfrac{27.99}{12}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies 27.99x=1200 \\\\\\ x=\cfrac{1200}{27.99}\implies x\approx 42.87

Determine the nth term for each of the following sequences: 2,5,8,11,14,..
Tanya [424]
To determine the nth term, we must create a function.

f(n) = 1st term + common difference (n - 1)

n = term you are looking for
1st term = 1st number in the sequence
common difference = the difference between two consecutive numbers in the sequence.

based on the above sequence, the 1st term is 2, its common difference is 3.

f(n) = 2 + 3(n-1)

Assuming we are looking for the 5th term
f(5) = 2 + 3(5-1)
       = 2 + 3(4)
       = 2 + 12
f(5) = 14   as you can see in the above sequence 14 is the 5th term.

For any other value of the nth term, simply substitute n by the number of the term and solve the equation.

Answer:

  • A. f(n) = (n + 1)^2 – 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Figure 1

  • 3 = 4 - 1 = 2² - 1 = (1 + 1)² - 1

Figure 2

  • 8 = 9 - 1 = 3² - 1 = (2 + 1)² - 1

Figure 3

  • 15 = 16 - 1 = 4² - 1 = (3 + 1)² - 1

<u>The function is:</u>

  • f(n) = (n + 1)² - 1

What is the equation of the line that passes through point(7, -8) and has a slope of zero? A. y =7B. x = 7C. x = -8D. y = -8
Bond [772]

y = -8

y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

since m = 0, the term mx = 0

since the line passes throug (7, -8) then y = -8
