Answer:

x = lillies

y = tulips

x + y = 13

1.25x + .90y = 14.85

-1.25x - 1.25y = -16.25

1.25x + .90y = 14.85

-0.35y = -1.40

y = 4 tulips

x + 4 = 13

x = 9 lillies

(9 lillies, 4 tulips)

A glitter glue recipe takes a mixture of 1 5 cup of glitter to 2 5 cup of glue. For A, how many cups of glitter are used for 1 c
tatiyna

0.6 cup of gliter is used for 1 cup of glue and 1.6 cup of gliter glue is made with 1 cup of glue.

Part A

Given that,

15 cup of gliter is for 25 cup of glue ,

Therefore, "X" cup of gliter is for 1 cup of glue

X = (1*15)/25

X= 0.6 cup of gliter

Part B,

Given that,

From part A 0.6 cup of gliter is for 1 cup of glue

Thus, 1 cup of glue and 0.6 cup of gliter when mixed will form "Y" cup of gliter glue

Now, Y= 0.6 cup of gliter + 1 cup of glue

Y= 1.6 cup of gliter glue

which approximates to 2 cup of gliter glue.

Complete the recursive formula of the arithmetic sequence -3, -1, 1, 3,...
Strike441 [17]

Given:

The given arithmetic sequence is:

-3,-1,1,3,...

To find:

The recursive formula of the given arithmetic sequence.

Solution:

We have,

-3,-1,1,3,...

Here, the first term is -3. So, b(1)=-3.

The common difference is:

d=-1-(-3)

d=-1+3

d=2

The recursive formula of an arithmetic sequence is:

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

Where, d is the common difference.

Putting d=2, we get

b(n)=b(n-1)+2

Therefore, the recursive formula of the given arithmetic sequence is b(n)=b(n-1)+2, where b(1)=-3.
