Please help me with these two math problems that I do not quite understand. This is urgent!

Answer:

1)a_{n}=a_{1}+(n-1)d\Rightarrow a_{n}=-1-2(n-1)\\a_{2}=-1-2(2-1)\Rightarrow a_{2}=-3\\a_{3}=-1-2(3-1)\Rightarrow a_{3}=-5\\(...)\\a_{10}=-1-2(10-1)=-19

2) a_{10}=4+8(10-1)\Rightarrow a_{10}=76

Step-by-step explanation:

1) To write an Arithmetic Sequence, as an Explicit Term, is to write a general formula to find any term for this sequence following this pattern:

a_{n}=a_{1}+d(n-1)\Rightarrow \left\{\begin{matrix}a_{n}=n^{th}\: term\\a_1=1st \: term \\d=\: difference\\n=n^{th}\, term\end{matrix}\right.

<em>"Write an explicit formula for each explicit formula A(n)=-1+(n-1)(-2)"</em>

This isn't quite clear. So, assuming you meant

Write an explicit formula for each term of this sequence A(n)=-1+(n-1)(-2)

As this A(n)=-1+(n-1)(-2)  is already an Explicit Formula, since it is given the first term a_{1}=-1 the common difference d=-2 let's find some terms of this Sequence through this Explicit Formula:

a_{n}=a_{1}+(n-1)d\Rightarrow a_{n}=-1-2(n-1)\\a_{2}=-1-2(2-1)\Rightarrow a_{2}=-3\\a_{3}=-1-2(3-1)\Rightarrow a_{3}=-5\\(...)\\a_{10}=-1-2(10-1)=-19

2) (4,12,20,28, ..) In this Arithmetic Sequence the common difference is 8, the first term value is 4.

Then, just plug in the first term and the common difference into the explicit formula:

a_{10}=4+8(10-1)\Rightarrow a_{10}=76

Which ratio is greater 4:5 or 5:6?<br>5:6 is greater or no?<br>true<br>false​
Veseljchak [2.6K]
Answer. :
True

Explanation :
The fraction 4/5 is equivalent to 24/30 (To get this I multiplied both the numerator and denominator by 6). The fraction 5/6 is equivalent to 25/30 (To get this I multiplied both the numerator and denominator by 5). ... Since 25 is greater than 24, 25/30 (or originally 5/6) is the larger fraction.

Are the set of all square numbers under 50 and the set of all triangular numbers that are less than 50 disjoint?
Alina [70]

Answer:

No, the two sets are not disjoint.

Step-by-step explanation:

Set of triangular numbers to 50: 1, 3, 6, 10, 15, 21, 28, 36, 45

Set of square numbers to 50: 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49

They have 1 and 36 in common, so they are not disjoint, or in other words, they have some of the same numbers.

HUDSON HAS TO FILL A POT WITH 1 QUART OF WATER. ALL HE HAS IS 1/4 CUP MEASURING CUP. HOW MANY TIMES DOES HE HAVE TO FILL THE 1/4
Marta_Voda [28]
There are 4 cups in a quart.

So if Hudson has only a 1/4 measuring cup, this can be represented by the equation:

4/1/4, solving it we get: 4* 4 (dividing turns a fraction into its reciprocal)

So, 4*4=16

Hudson will have to fill the 1/4 measuring cup 16 times to get a quart.

I hope this helps!
