Alex73 [517]3 years ago

Answer:

a(n) = (-2)(a_{n-1})

a_{1}=5

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is in the form of the explicit formula of a geometric sequence.

f(n) = a(r)^{n-1}

Where 'a' = First term of the sequence

r = common ratio

Recursive formula of a geometric sequence is,

a(n) = (a_{n-1}).(r)^{n-1}

a(n) = (-2)(a_{n-1})

Where, a_{1}=5

So the recursive formula will be a(n) = (-2)(a_{n-1})

Match each table of data below with the most appropriate graph and briefly explain why it matches the data
Stells [14]

Answer:

Table a match with  Graph 3

Table b match with Graph 2

Table c match with Graph 4

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Table a</u>

Time is plotted on x - axis and Temp on y axis

From table a we can see that the y values(temp) decrease with increasing time. The only graph that has a decreasing trend is Graph 3

<u>Table b</u>

Time plotted on x axis, cost on y axis

Looking at the values we see that they are almost linear except for 2 values  at x = 2 and 2.5 and at y = 5 and 5.3.

Ignoring values 2.5 and 5.3 we see a linear fit with a slope of 20. This means either graph 1 or graph 2

However, the graph passes through (0,0) and this is not a set of values in the table. That leaves graph 2

<u>Table c</u>

Months plotted on x axis and length of fetus on the y axis

We can see that the y values (the length) increases slowly at lower values of x(x=1 and x=2) and then increase rapidly at the mid values(x = 2 thru 6) and then slows  down  between months 6 and 9. Only Graph 4 fits this pattern

A sandwich shop uses the box size shown to pack boxed lunches. They have determined that they need to use bigger boxes. If the s

The original volume of the shape was 250. You come up with this by multiplying all sides together. So, 5x5x10=250.

We do the same for the new shape, which now has a 7 in place of the 5. So 7x7x10=490.

Lastly, we subtract the volume of the new shape from the volume of the old shape to see the difference. So, 490-250=240.

So the answer to this is 240.

X=7. The two segments on the bottom as well as on the diagonal are the same length. This shows that the entire triangle and the inner triangle on the right are similar. So if we call the length of the bottom 2y, then 84/2y=6x/y. Solving this we get 84=12x, and so x=7

David has 36 apple and pear trees in his gardens. If he plant 4 more apple trees, he will have the same amount of apple and pear
amm1812

Answer:

16 apples, 20 pears

Step-by-step explanation:

36+4=40

So 40/2= 20 or an even amount of both apples and pears

20-4= 16 ~Original amount of apples

36-16=20 ~Amount of pears

60:92=105:n what is n?
PIT_PIT [208]
Hey! I'll provide you the answers!

First you want to simplify the equation using cross-multiplication.

15n = 2415

Finally, you would want to divide both sides by 15.

n = 161
