Answer:

The 2nd term in the sequence is -9.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that:

a(1) = -13

a(n) = a(n-1) + 4

Find the 2nd term in the sequence.

This is a(2). So

a(2) = a(2-1) + 4

a(2) = a(1) + 4

Since a(1) = -13.

a(2) = -13 + 4 = -9

The 2nd term in the sequence is -9.

Answer:

The 2nd term in the sequence is -9.

Step-by-step explanation:

fa(1) = -13

a(n) = a(n-1)+4

Find the 2nd term in the sequence.

The sequence is an Arithmetic sequence.

Here the 1st term = -13

An = A(n-1) + 4

Therefore, the common difference (d) = 4

2nd term = first term + common difference

2nd term = -13 + 4 = -9

The answer is -9.

THEREFORE, The 2nd term in the sequence is -9.

2x-3y=8 solve for y I don't understand this at all can someone please help??
suter [353]
You can't find the exact value of y, but you can find y in terms of x!

Adding 3y and subtracting 8 from both sides, we have:

2x-3y+3y-8=8+3y-8

2x-8=3y

Dividing by 3, we see that y=(2x-8)/3.  This is the simplest form we can find for y.

Bill is able to save $35/week after working part-time and paying his expenses. These two formulas show his weekly savings: f(1)
Umnica [9.8K]
1. We use the recursive formula to make the table of values:
f(1) = 35
f(2) = f(1) + f(2-1) = f(1) + f(1) = 35 + 35 = 70
f(3) = f(1) + f(3-1) = f(1) + f(2) = 35 + 70 = 105
f(4) = f(1) + f(4-1) = f(1) + f(3) = 35 + 105 = 140
f(5) = f(1) + f(5-1) = f(1) + f(4) = 35 + 140 = 175

2. We observe that the pattern is that for each increase of n by 1, the value of f(n) increases by 35. The explicit equation would be that f(n) = 35n. This fits with the description that Bill saves up $35 each week, thus meaning that he adds $35 to the previous week's value.

3. Therefore, the value of f(40) = 35*40 = 1400. This is easier than having to calculate each value from f(1) up to f(39) individually. The answer of 1400 means that Bill will have saved up $1400 after 40 weeks.

4. For the sequence of 5, 6, 8, 11, 15, 20, 26, 33, 41...
The first-order differences between each pair of terms is: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8...since these differences form a linear equation, this sequence can be expressed as a quadratic equation. Since quadratics are functions (they do not have repeating values of the x-coordinate), therefore, this sequence can also be considered a function.
