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

Mathematics

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}

Four glasses of milk and 2 snack bars have a total of 72 carbohydrates​ (carbs), and 2 glasses of milk and 3 snack bars have a t
Travka [436]

One glass of milk has 11 carbs and one snack bar has 14 carbs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Glass of milk = x

Snack bar = y

According to given statement;

4x+2y=72   Eqn 1

2x+3y=64   Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 2 by 2

2(2x+3y=64)\\4x+6y=128\ \ \ Eqn\ 3

Subtracting Eqn 1 from Eqn 3

(4x+6y)-(4x+2y)=128-72\\4x+6y-4x-2y=56\\4y=56

Dividing both sides by 4

\frac{4y}{4}=\frac{56}{4}\\y=14

Putting y=14 in Eqn 1

4x+2(14)=72\\4x+28=72\\4x=72-28\\4x=44

Dividing both sides by 4

\frac{4x}{4}=\frac{44}{4}\\x=11

One glass of milk has 11 carbs and one snack bar has 14 carbs.
