Explicit Formula
Just in case you don't know what this is, the explicit formula is the formula that solves for any term in the series without necessarily knowing what came before the term you are solving.
<em><u>Givens</u></em>
d = t_(n + 1) - t_n You can take any term and the next term for this part of the formula
d = t_3 - t_2
t_3 = 1
t_2 = -7
d = 1 - - 7 = 8
a = -15
<em><u>Formula</u></em>
t_n = a + (n - 1)*d
t_n = -15 + (n - 1)*8
For example find the 5th term.
t_5 = - 15 + (5 - 1)*8
t_5 = - 15 + 4 *8
t_5 = -15 + 32
t_5 = 17 Which is what you have.
Recursive Formula
Computers really like this formula. They use it in what is called a subroutine and they pass values from one part of the program to a subroutine which evaluates the given and sends the result back. I'm telling you all this so you see why you are doing it. The disadvantage of it for humans is that you must know the preceding term to use the recursive formula.
<em><u>Formula</u></em>
t_n = t_(n - 1) + d
<em><u>Example</u></em>
t_6 = t_(6 - 1) + d
t_6 = t_5 + 8
t_6 = 17 + 8
t_6 = 25
You can check this by using the explicit formula.
Scarf area is 8 small fabric area
8 x 0.25 x 0.25 =0.5.
7 scarf area would be
7 x 0.5 = 3.5
new fabric (large ) area is
2 x 0.25 = 0.5
7 scarf area divide by new fabric area
3.5 divide by 0.5 = 7 large pieces
Por lo que, el valor absoluto de -9 es 9. El valor absoluto de 9 es el número de unidades que está 9 del cero. Nueve está a nueve unidades de cero.
Answer:
2,455
Step-by-step explanation:
Use PEMDAS to solve
First multiply 50x50, which is 2,500
50 x 50 + 60 - 105 becomes
2,500 + 60 - 105
Now to the addition or subtraction from left to right
2,560 - 105
2,455
