Answer:

The first five terms are 6, 11, 21, 41, 81 ⇒ D

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ The rule of the sequence is a(1) = 6; a(n) = 2 a(n - 1) - 1 for n ≥ 2

∴ The first term of the sequence is 6

∴ The value of n represents the position of the term

∵ n = 2

∴ a (n - 1) = a(2 - 1) = a1

∵ a1 = 6

→ Substitute a1 by 6

∴ a(2) = 2(6) - 1 = 12 - 1

∴ a(2) = 11

∵ n = 3

∴ a (n - 1) = a(3 - 1) = a2

∵ a2 = 11

→ Substitute a2 by 11

∴ a(3) = 2(11) - 1 = 22 - 1

∴ a(3) = 21

∵ n = 4

∴ a (n - 1) = a(4 - 1) = a3

∵ a3 = 21

→ Substitute a3 by 21

∴ a(4) = 2(21) - 1 = 42 - 1

∴ a(4) = 41

∵ n = 5

∴ a (n - 1) = a(5 - 1) = a4

∵ a4 = 41

→ Substitute a4 by 41

∴ a(5) = 2(41) - 1 = 82 - 1

∴ a(5) = 81

∴ The first five terms are 6, 11, 21, 41, 81

Helen [10]

Answer:

90/23

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you want to start in the parentheses. 5-6=-1, then multiply it by -2. Since a negative multiplied by a negative is a positive, -2*-1=2. -3^2=-9. 2+8=10. Then -9 times 10= -90. Then, we move on to the bottom. 5--2=7. 4^2=16, and -2(2)=-4. So -5(7) + 16-4=-23. Now, the equation should look like this, -90/-23. Put the negatives together and you get 90/23.

What is an equation of a line,in point-slope from, that passes through (1, -7) and has a slope of -2/3
il63 [147K]

Answer:

y + 7 = - \frac{2}{3}(x - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

Where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

Here m = - \frac{2}{3} and (a, b) = (1, - 7), thus

y - (- 7) = - \frac{2}{3}(x - 1), that is

y + 7 = - \frac{2}{3}(x - 1) ← in point- slope form
