Answer:

The correct answer would be B: x-1+x-2+x

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you would do 2+(-5), from the given equation. Then, it could be simplified to 3x-3. Then, looking at B, you would add the like terms, meaning you would add all the x´s together, and the whole numbers together, giving you 3x-3. I hope I made this easy to understand for you!

Answer:

13.5

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sin 64\degree = \frac{AC}{AB}\\\\AC = AB \sin 64\degree \\\\AC = 13.481910694\\\\AC \approx 13.5$

I think it is not because it’s also not proportional and they are basically identical except for what b is equal to

Enter the explicit rule for the sequence

Softa [21]

Let's take a look at the first few numbers in the sequence based on the given rule:

$a_{1}=6\\ a_{2}= \frac{1}{4}(6)\\ a_3= \frac{1}{4}\big( \frac{1}{4}\big)6= \big(\frac{1}{4}\big)^2(6)\\ a_{4}= \frac{1}{4} \big(\frac{1}{4}\big)^26= \big(\frac{1}{4}\big)^3(6)$

Inspecting this pattern it seems like the power $\frac{1}{4}$ is being raised to is always one less than the number of the sequence, so if we were on the nth number in the sequence, that part of the expression would be $\big(\frac{1}{4} \big)^{n-1}$ . We also know that we'll be multiplying whatever we get from that by 6, so we can write the full explicit rule for our sequence as

$a_n=6\big( \frac{1}{4} \big)^{n-1}$

Where $a_n$ is the nth number in our sequence.
