Answer:
The second term of the sequence is 8 False ⇒ B
The third term of the sequence is 3 True ⇒ A
The fourth term of the sequence is -3 True ⇒ A
Step-by-step explanation:
The form of the recursive rule is:
f(1) = first term; f(n) = f(n - 1) + d, where
- f(n - 1) is the term before the nth term
- d is the common difference
∵ f(1) = 15, f(n) = f(n - 1) - 6 for n ≥ 2
∴ The first term = 15
∴ d = -6
let us find the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th terms
∵ n = 2
∴ f(2) = f(1) - 6
∵ f(1) = 15
∴ f(2) = 15 - 6 = 9
∴ The second term is 9
∴ The second term of the sequence is 8 False
∵ n = 3
∴ f(3) = f(2) - 6
∵ f(2) = 9
∴ f(3) = 9 - 6 = 3
∴ The third term is 3
∴ The third term of the sequence is 3 True
∵ n = 4
∴ f(4) = f(3) - 6
∵ f(3) = 3
∴ f(4) = 3 - 6 = -3
∴ The fourth term is -3
∴ The fourth term of the sequence is -3 True
B hope that is correct answer
X + (x + 10) = 154
2 x + 10 = 154
2 x = 154-10 = 144
x = 72 (ans)
Not sure if it’s right
Answer:
7/6 cups
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following information :
Mug is 2/7 full
Amount of water in the mug = 1/3 cup
Assume the full capacity of the mug = m
Then the current capacity of water in mug = (2/7) of m = (2/7)m
Current capacity of water in mug is equivalent to 1/3 cup of water
Hence,
(2/7)m = 1/3
2m/7 = 1/3
Cross multiply
(2m * 3) = 7 * 1
6m = 7
m = 7/6
m = 1 1/6 cups
This is important because if you were to answer in complex fractions instead of its simplest form, you would have a tough time multiplying complex fractions together. You would get a HUGE denominator or numerator, which makes things difficult. It is important to write a fraction in its simplest form because of exactly that; making things simple. Would you rather multiply 64/132*64/132 or 1/2*1/2?
