Which recursive formula defines this sequence for n > 1?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Sergeeva-Olga [200]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

(B)a_n=a_{n-1}+3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the sequence: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, ...

6=3+3

9=6+3

12=9+3

If we continue in like manner, we notice that the nth term (a_n) is an addition of 3 to the previous term (a_{n-1}).

Therefore (for n>1), the recursive formula which defines the sequence is:

a_n=a_{n-1}+3

The correct option is B

Marcy needs to make 5 lb of a cashew/raisin mixture for a party. Her local grocery store sells raisins for $4.50/lb and cashews
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

Pounds of raisins = 1.5 lb

Pounds of cashew = 3.5 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Pounds of raisins = x

Pounds of cashew = y

x + y = 5 (1)

4.50x + 9.50y = 40 (2)

From (1)

x = 5 - y

Substitute x = 5 - y into

4.50x + 9.50y = 40

4.50(5 - y) + 9.50y = 40

22.50 - 4.50y + 9.50y = 40

- 4.50y + 9.50y = 40 - 22.50

5y = 17.5

y = 17.5 / 5

= 3.5

y = 3.5lb

Substitute y = 3.5 into

x + y = 5

x + 3.5 = 5

x = 5 - 3.5

= 1.5

x = 1.5lb

Pounds of raisins = 1.5 lb

Pounds of cashew = 3.5 lb
