Step-by-step explanation:
In the recursive formula an = an−1 + 5

Suppose if a_5 is the nth term then previous term is a_4
To get the previous term we need to subtract 1 from the n
So a_n is the nth term
is the previous term
Here 5 represents the common difference between two terms
So value of previous term is represented by

Full question:
In a basketball game, Elena scores twice as many points as Tyler. Tyler scores four points fewer than Noah, and Noah scores three times as many points as Mai. If Mai scores 5 points, how many points did Elena score? Explain your reasoning
Answer and explanation:
We start from known to unknown. We know that Mai scored 5 points and so we work from here.
Since Mai scored 5 points and Noah scored three times as many points then Noah's score = 3×5= 15 points
Since Tyler scored four points less than Noah, Noah's score= 15-4= 11 points
Finally Elena's score is twice that of Tyler hence Elena's score =2×11= 22 points
To determine the minimum of an equation, we derive the <span>equation using differential calculus twice (or simply </span><span>take the second derivative of the function). If the </span><span>second derivative is greater than 0, then it is minimum; </span><span>else, if it is less than 1, the function contains the </span><span>maximum. If the second derivative is zero, then the </span><span>inflection point </span><span>is</span><span> identified.</span>
Answer:
$9450
Step-by-step explanation:
We will use compound interest formula:

Where
F is future amount [what we want to figure out]
P is present amount [9000]
r is rate of interest [since we want for 6 months, the annual interest divided by 2 is r. So r = 10/2 = 5% or 0.05]
t is the time [ the time period is for 6 months so t = 1 since we already converted the interest rate to 6 month chunk]
Putting in formula, we get:
