Answer:

The common difference d is d = -3

The recursive formula is: \mathbf{a_n=a_{n-1}-3}

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the common difference and the recursive formula.

a. 22, 19, 16, 13, …

First we will find common difference

The formula of arithmetic sequence is: a_n=a_1+(n-1)d

where a_n is nth term, a_1 is 1st term and d is the difference

Looking at the sequence we get: a_1=22, a_2=19

Using these values we can find d, the common difference

a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\\put\:n=2, a_2=19, a_1=22\\19=22+(2-1)d\\19=22+d\\d=19-22\\d=-3

So, the common difference d is d = -3

Now, we will find the recursive formula:

The recursive formula is of type: a_n=a_{n-1}+d

We have found common difference d = -3

So, the recursive formula will be:

a_n=a_{n-1}+d\\a_n=a_{n-1}+(-3)\\a_n=a_{n-1}-3

The recursive formula is: \mathbf{a_n=a_{n-1}-3}

The probability that a student uses Smarthinking Online Tutoring on a regular basis is 0.31 . In a group of 21 students, what is
Ivenika [448]

Answer: 0.0241

Step-by-step explanation:

This is solved using the probability distribution formula for random variables where the combination formula for selection is used to determine the probability of these random variables occurring. This formula is denoted by:

P(X=r) = nCr × p^r × q^n-r

Where:

n = number of sampled variable which in this case = 21

r = variable outcome being determined which in this case = 5

p = probability of success of the variable which in this case = 0.31

q= 1- p = 1 - 0.31 = 0.69

P(X=5) = 21C5 × 0.31^5 × 0.69^16

P(X=5) = 0.0241

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Assuming you mean until the lunch money balance runs out,

$2.20x = $23

Step-by-step explanation:

You spend $2.20 every day.  If you are trying to find how many days until the lunch balance runs out, you need to put in X as your variable.

The last step is to set it equal to $23 dollars to be able to factor out the answer.


Hope this Helped!

• Mother has 40 guavas to share among her daughters, Naomi got 3
scoray [572]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

As given Total Guavas  = 40 ,

3 daughters,

Let   share of Sharon = x

then by given condition ,

Naomi share = x+3                  (3 more then Sharon

Also Kassie share = x+3+10 =x+13     (10 more then Naomi

Now

total shared = total

Naomi + Sharon + Kassie = 40

(x+3) +(x) +(x+13) =40

adding like terms with like we get ,

3x+16=40

3x=40-16

3x=24

x= 24/3

x= 8  

hence Sharon share = x =8

Naomi share = x+3 =8+3 =11

Kassie share = x+13 = 8+13 = 21
