Write the explicit formula for the

Mathematics
1 answer:
Phoenix [80]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

a_n=-10n+150

Step-by-step explanation:

This is consider a linear pattern (arithmetic pattern).

We know this because it is either going up or down by the same number each time. It's going down by 10 in this case.

So -10 is the slope of this linear pattern.

The equation for a linear pattern is:

y=mx+b

where x represents the position the term is in

and

where y represents the actual term

and

where m is the slope

So we have y=-10x+b.

(x,y)

(term position in sequence, actual term)

(1,140)

(2,130)

(3,120)

(4,110)

We can find b by using a number with it's position in the sequence (that is plug in one of your points above).

y=-10x+b

140=-10(1)+b

140=-10+b

150=b (after adding 10 on both sides)

The explicit equation for the sequence is y=-10x+150.

They probably prefer you to write: a_n=-10n+150 instead.

Número racional no entero
Varvara68 [4.7K]

An estar escrito en la forma n / 1. Por ejemplo, 5 = 5/1 y, por tanto, 5 es un número racional. Sin embargo, números como 1/2, 45454737/2424242 y -3/7 también son racionales, ya que son fracciones cuyo numerador y denominador son números enteros.

A line intersects the point (6,9) and (7,4). What is the slope intercept equation for this line?
taurus [48]

Answer:

y = -5x + 39

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug either ordered pair into the Point-Slope Formula FIRST, <em>y</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>y</em><em>₁</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>m</em><em>(</em><em>x</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>x</em><em>₁</em><em>)</em><em>,</em><em> </em>then convert to Slope-Intercept Form by moving whichever term is nearest to <em>y</em><em>,</em><em> </em>over to the right side of the equivalence symbol to get the above answer.
