<u>Given </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>

  • A sequence is defined by f(n + 1) = f(n) -2 .
  • f(1) = 10

<u>To </u><u>Find</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>

  • The value of f(3) .

<u>Sol</u><u>u</u><u>tion </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>

As per Question ,

→ f(n + 1) = f(n) - 2

→ f(n + 1 ) - f(n ) = -2

Therefore , the second term of the sequence is ,

→ f(2) - f(1) = -2

→ f(2) - 10 = -2

→ f(2) = 10 -2

→ f(2) = 8

Similarly,

→ f(3) - f(2) = -2

→ f(3) = 8 -2

→ f(3) = 6

<h3>Hence the value of f(3) is 6 .</h3>

Answer:

f(3) = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the recursive rule and f(1) = 10 , then

f(2) = f(1) - 2 = 10 - 2 = 8

f(3) = f(2) - 2 = 8 - 2 = 6

Classify the two given samples as independent or dependent.

sample​ 1: the scores of 20 students who took the act

sample​ 2: the scores of 20 different students who took the sat

Solution: The two given samples are independent samples because in both the samples, the scores of one student will not affect the scores of other students.

Independent samples are samples that are selected randomly so that its observations do not depend on the values other observations.

4x+5y=20 in point slope form
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

y = -4/5x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

y - y1 = m(x-x1)

4x + 5y = 20 ( subtract 4x on both sides)

5y = -4x + 20 (divide by 5 on each side)

y = -4/5x + 4

So we know one point is (0,4) y-intercept

now plug in (0,4)

y - 4 = -4/5(x-0) (Distribute -4/5 to x - 0)

y - 4 = -4/5x (now add 4 on each side)

y = -4/5x - 4

Write an algebraic rule for the trend line. Report your rule in slope intercept form.
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

y = 5x + 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to find the slope intercept form equation of the trend line

The general form is:

y =

mx + b

b is slope and m

is the y-intercept

b = 20

To get the slope, we select any two points and use the slope formula

we have the points;

(10,70) and (5,45)

The slope formula is;

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) = (45-70)/(5-10) = -25/-5 = 5

The equation of the line is thus;

y = 5x + 20

Please Help:<br> In Δ ABC, sin A= 88, sin B= 42, and a =17 , find the length of b.
enyata [817]

Answer:

11.4 units

Step-by-step explanation:

a/sinA = b/sinB

17/sin(88) = b/sin(42)

b = sin(42) × 17/sin(88)

b = 11.3821540088
