Answer: 1) 2, 3, 4, 9, 32, 279, 8896, 2481705, 22077238784

              2) 2,490,924

              3) Neither

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

S_n=S_{n-2}\cdot (S_{n-1}-1)\quad \\\\S_1=2\quad given\\S_2=3\quad given\\S_3=S_1(S_2-1)\quad =2(3-1)\quad =4\\S_4=S_2(S_3-1)\quad =3(4-1)\quad =9\\S_5=S_3(S_4-1)\quad =4(9-1)\quad =32\\S_6=S_4(S_5-1)\quad =9(32-1)\quad =279\\S_7=S_5(S_6-1)\quad =32(279-1)\quad =8,896\\S_8=S_6(S_7-1)\quad =279(8896-1)\quad =2,481,705\\S_9=S_7(S_8-1)\quad =8896(2481705-1)\quad =22,077,238,784

\sum^8_{k=1}S_k\\\\=S_1+S_2+S_3+S_4+S_5+S_6+S_7+S_8\\\\= 2,490,924\\

Neither

Not arithmetic because the difference between each of the terms is not the same.            

                        S₂ - S₁          S₃ - S₂           S₄ - S₃      

                      3 - 2 = 1       4 - 3 = 1          9 - 4 = 5

Not geometric because the ratios between each of the terms is not the same.                

                       \dfrac{S_2}{S_1}=\dfrac{S_3}{S_2}\qquad \rightarrow \dfrac{3}{2}=\dfrac{4}{3}\qquad \rightarrow \text{cross multiply to get}: 9\neq 8

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

100 lightbulbs

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically find the percentage of lightbulbs that are bad. 5/136. So about 3. 6 percent. I'm going to use a more exact form of this percent for my calculations though. Now use the decimal for of this (0.036....) and multiply it by 2720. Using my exact decimal, the answer just so happened to be exactly 100. So there will be 100 defective lightbulbs per day. (Teachers are a stickler for units, so don't forget them if it's for a teacher)

Hope this helps!

What are the x-intercepts and the y-intercepts of the graph of 12x−3y=36
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

12x −3y=36  ⇔ 3y = 12x - 36

                          y = 4x - 12

y = 0 ⇔ 4x - 12 = 0 ⇔ 4x = 12 ⇔ x = 12/4 = 3

So (0 ; - 12) and (3 ; 0)

Does a linear equation have no solution, one solution, or infinitely many solutions?
Natasha_Volkova [10]
I think that a linear equation can have no solution, one solution, or infinitely solutions. It just depends on what is the equation. That's what I think
