What is the explicit formula for this sequence -7, -4, -1, 2, 5

Mathematics
1 answer:
Nataliya [291]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

\large\boxed{a_n=3n-10}

Step-by-step explanation:

It's an arithmetic sequence.

-4-(-7)=-4+7=3\\-1-(-4)=-1+4=3\\2-(-1)=2+1=3\\5-2=3

The difference is constant.

The explicit formula of an arithmetic sequence:

a_n=a_1+(n-1)d

Substitute:

a_1=-7,\ d=3

a_n=-7+(n-1)(3)          <em>use distributive property</em>

a_n=-7+3n-3\\\\a_n=3n+(-7-3)\\\\a_n=3n-10

Consider the sequence 130, 143, 156, 169, ...    Write an explicit formula to represent the arithmetic sequence and use it to fi
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

A(n)=130+13(n-1) ; 86

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the sequence

130,143,156,169.......

the first term denoted by a is 130 and the common difference denoted by d is second term minus first term

143 - 130 = 13

Hence a=130 and d = 13

Now we have to evaluate to 13th term.

The formula for nth term of any Arithmetic Sequence is

A(n) = a+(n-1)d

Hence substituting the values of a ,and d  get

A(n)=130+13(n-1)

To find the 13th term , put n = 13

A(13)=130+13*(13-1)

      = 130+13*12

      = 130+156

A(13) = 286

Elina [12.6K]
3x + y = -3
-2x + y = 7
Use elimination method
Subtract both equations
5x = -10, x = -2
Plug in -2 for x (any equation)
3(-2) + y = -3
-6 + y = -3
y = 3

Solution: x = -2, y = 3
Or as a coordinate: (-2, 3)
