What are the next three terms in the sequence 4, -1, -6, -11, ...?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Fynjy0 [20]3 years ago

Answer:

In summary, "the next three terms" are {-16, -21, -26}

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that the common difference separating the terms of 4, -1, -6, -11, ... is -5.  Each new term is found by combining the previous term with -5.

Thus, the applicable formula is a(n) = 4-5(n-1).

We should test this.  Take the term -6 and determine whether or not this formula correctly predicts the next term:  -11:

a(4) = 4-5(4-1) = 4 - 5(3) = 4 - 15 = -11 (yes).

We have the first four terms and need the 5th, 6th and 7th terms.

The fifth term, a(5), is 4-5(5-1) = 4-20 = -16

The sixth term is a(6) = 4-5(6-1) = -21

The seventh term is a(7) = 4 -5(6) = -26

In summary, "the next three terms" are {-16, -21, -26}

White raven [17]

Answer:

x = 13.5

Step-by-step explanation:

To find x, we use the sine rule

For the sine rule,

the ratio of the sides to the sine of the angle facing the side is equal for all the sides of the triangle

Thus,

x/sin 34 = 11/ sin 27

x = 11 sin 34/sin 27

x = 13.5

Diameter of the semicircle = 10 km.

Explanation:  perimeter of semicircle =   1  2

the circumference + diameter  Given: perimeter of semicircle =  25.7  k m

Circumference of circle with radius  r =  2 π r  where  2 r = diameter  ⇒ 25.7 = 22 π r + 2 r ⇒ 25.7 = π r + 2 r = r ( π + 2 )  ⇒ 25.7 = r ( 3.14 + 2 ) = r ( 5.14 )  ⇒ r = =5m ⇒d i a m e t e r = 2 r = 10 k m
