Answer:

a[n] = a[n-1]×(4/3)

a[1] = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The terms of a geometric sequence have an initial term and a common ratio. The common ratio multiplies the previous term to get the next one. That sentence describes the recursive relation.

The general explicit term of a geometric sequence is ...

  a[n] = a[1]×r^(n-1) . . . . . where a[1] is the first term and r is the common ratio

Comparing this to the expression you are given, you see that ...

  a[1] = 1/2

  r = 4/3

(You also see that parenthses are missing around the exponent expression, n-1.)

A recursive rule is defined by two things:

  1. the starting value(s) for the recursive relation
  2. the recursive relation relating the next term to previous terms

The definition of a geometric sequence tells you the recursive relation is:

  <em>the next term is the previous one multiplied by the common ratio</em>.

In math terms, this looks like

  a[n] = a[n-1]×r

Using the value of r from above, this becomes ...

  a[n] = a[n-1]×(4/3)

Of course, the starting values are the same for the explicit rule and the recursive rule:

  a[1] = 1/2

After being rearranged and simplified, which of the following equations could be solved using the quadratic formula?
dmitriy555 [2]
A. 2x^2 - 3x + 10 = 2x + 21
2x^2 - 3x - 2x + 10 - 21 = 0
2x^2 - 5x - 11 = 0                              (quadratic equation)

2x^2 - 6x - 7 = 2x^2
2x^2 - 2x^2 - 6x - 7 = 0
-6x - 7 = 0                                          (not a quadratic equation)

5x^2 + 2x - 4 = 2x^2
5x^2 - 2x^2 + 2x - 4 = 0
3x^2 + 2x - 4                                      (quadratic equation)

5x^3 - 3x + 10 = 2x^2
5x^3 - 2x^2 - 3x + 10 = 0                    (not a quadratic equation)

Therefore, options a and c can be solved using the quadratic formula.
