Answer:
Tn = 2Tn-1 - Tn-2
Step-by-step explanation:
Before we can generate the recursive sequence, we need to find the nth term of the given sequence.
nth term of an AP is given as:
Tn = a+(n-1)d
If a17 = -40
T17 = a+(17-1)d = -40
a+16d = -40 ...(1)
If a28 = -73
T28 = a+(28-1)d = -73
a+27d = -73 ...(2)
Solving both equations simultaneously using elimination method.
Subtracting 1 from 2 we have:
27d - 16d = -73-(-40)
11d = -73+40
11d = -33
d = -3
Substituting d = -3 into 1
a+16(-3) = -40
a - 48 = -40
a = -40+48
a = 8
Given a = 8, d = -3, the nth term of the sequence will be
Tn = 8+(n-1) (-3)
Tn = 8+(-3n+3)
Tn = 8-3n+3
Tn = 11-3n
Given Tn = 11-3n and d = -3
Tn-1 = Tn - d... (3)
Tn-1 = 11-3n +3
Tn-1 = 14-3n
Tn-2 = Tn-2d...(4)
Tn-2 = 11-3n-2(-3)
Tn-2 = 11-3n+6
Tn-2 = 17-3n
From 3, d = Tn - Tn-1
From 4, d = (Tn - Tn-2)/2
Equating both common difference
(Tn - Tn-2)/2 = Tn - Tn-1
Tn - Tn-2 = 2(Tn - Tn-1)
Tn - Tn-2 = 2Tn-2Tn-1
2Tn-Tn = 2Tn-1 - Tn-2
Tn = 2Tn-1 - Tn-2
The recursive formula will be
Tn = 2Tn-1 - Tn-2
1) The caterpillar was already at 4.5 feet so 4.5 will be added. If it crawls upwards 38 of an inch every minute and the amount of minutes is not specified, this will be represented as 38x. That means the answer is C. f(x) = 38x + 4.5
2) Substitute the known values into the equation. There are 7 people at $8.25 a person, which is a total of $57.75 <u>I used 7 because he invites 6 friends, plus himself. </u>He only has $50 on his gift card, so he won't have enough to cover the cost. The answer is A.
3) They start out with 40lbs and recieve 120 more. They have 160lbs in total. If they sell 8lbs a day for 5 days, thats 8*5 or 40lbs total. 160 - 40 = 120lbs left after 5 days. I'd say the answers are A, B, and D.
4) I think the answer would be C because 1,500 is used to find the number of grams of isotope present after t years. The number of grams can't be 1,500. I hope that makes sense because I'm not sure how to explain it.
5) The growth factor is 2 (2x, x being the number of hours). Multiply by 15 because the lab has 15 of them. The answer is B. f(x) = 15 * 2x
I hope this helps you! I'm sorry if I got any of them wrong!

Answer:
$2353 at 12.5% and $7647 at 8.25%
Step-by-step explanation:
I'll say a is the amount he invested in one market, and b is the amount in the other.
a + b = 10000, or b = 10000 - a
multiplying the investments with the percentages and adding them together will give the total earned interest.
(a × 0.125) + (b × 0.0825) = 925
0.125a + 0.0825b = 925
Use substitution to solve for a.
0.125a + 0.0825(10000 - a) = 925
0.125 a + 825 - 0.0825a = 925
0.0425a = 100
a = 2352.94
Use substitution to find b
b = 10000 - 2352.94
b = 7647.06
The questions are to the nearest dollar so round a and b.
$2353 and $7647
Answer:
He won 13 times and lost 1 time
Step-by-step explanation:
divide 67 by 5 so 67÷5 you would get 13.4 you take the whole number 13 and multiply it by 5 and that will get you to 65 so then you only have 2 left over and if you lose you get 2 point so therefore you know that he lost only once
(13•5)+2=67
