What are the first five terms of the sequence generated by the formula below?
1 answer:
Answer:
The correct option is:
2, 4, 12, 48, 240
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to determine the first 5 terms of the sequence by using following formula:
To Calculate the first 5 terms.
Put n = 1
a₁ = 2 (1)!
a₁ = 2(1)
a₁ = 2
Put n = 2
a₂ = 2 (2)!
a₂ = 2 (2·1) = 2(2)
a₂ = 4
Put n = 3
a₃ = 2(3)!
a₃ = 2(3·2·1)
a₃ = 2(6)
a₃ = 12
Put n = 4
a₄ = 2(4)!
a₄ = 2(4·3·2·1)
a₄ = 2(24)
a₄ = 48
Put n =5
a₅ = 2(5)!
a₅ = 2(5·4·3·2·1)
a₅ = 2(120)
a₅ = 240

Find sketch of parallelogram attached
Answer and explanation:
A parallelogram is a quadrilateral which is wider than it is long. A parallelogram has two sides parallel to the other. From the above, we are told the parallelogram PQRS has an angle QPS 120, with sides 10cm and 8cm, we use this to sketch the parallelogram
We find that angle QPS is 120 degrees hence angle RSP is 60 degrees since angle on straight line is 60 degrees from 180-120 in angle QPS and alternate angles are equal. Also opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal
