The explicit formula for arithmetic sequence is:
an=a+(n-1)d
where:
a=first term
d=common difference
given:
a3=22
a(17)=-20
substituting this in our equation we get:
22=a+(3-1)d
22=a+2d
a=22-2d........i
also:
-20=a+(17-1)d
-20=a+16d.....ii
but substituting i in ii we get:
-20=22-2d+16d
-20-22=14d
-42=14d
d=-3
but:
a=22-2d
a=22-2(-3)
a=28
thus the formula will be:
an=28-3(n-1)
thus the first term will be 28
the 2nd term will be:
a2=28-3(2-1)
a2=25
the 3rd term will be:
a3=28-3(3-1)
a3=28-6
a3=22
a4=28-3(4-1)
a4=28-9
a4=15
a5=28-3(5-1)
a5=28-3(4)
a5=28-12
a5=15
Answer: 24 sq. ft
Step-by-step explanation: 20 x 36 - (36 - 20 / 2 ) x (20 - 14 )= 24 sq. ft
Answer:
Let f(x) = Ax + B and g(x) = Cx + D where A, B, C, and D are non-zero constants. Use upper case letters for A, B, C, D and lower case letter for x in your answers below. (a) Find f(g(x)). f(g(x)) = A(Cx + D) + B (b) Find the slope of the function you found in part (a). slope = (c) Find the vertical intercept of the function you found in part (a).
