Hey there!

The answer is n - 1.

Let's pretend the number is 15, so 1 less than "15", if you think about it, would be 14, and to get there, you do 15 - 1, now let us switch "15" back to a number "n", and now we have "n - 1"

Did you catch on? ;)

I would love to help you anytime

It’s n-1 because 1 less than a number(n) would be n-1 and you may think what about 1-n, the words for that is one Minus a number or a number less than 1 but since it’s not that the answer is
N-1

Find the recursive formula ... 3, -7, -17, -27,.......

svetlana [45]

The negative sign isnt changing back and forth, so its not a geometric sequence

the difference between each term looks to be constant at 10

a1= 3
a2=-7= a1-10
a3= -17 =a2-10

oh look a pattern
an= a(n-1) - 10

Lol can you help if you can

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Anything multipled by 6 will always be even, and anything multiplied by 4 will also always be even. Therefore, when we multiply (6x to the 4th)(4x to the 3rd), the answer will be even. However, 3 is odd, and an even number minus an odd number is ALWAYS odd.

What is the product in simplest form? −611⋅34

Anton [14]

Correct Question:

What is the product in simplest form?

$-\frac{6}{11} \times \frac{3}{4}$

Answer:

$-\frac{9}{22}$ is the product in simplest form

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the simplest form of solving two fractions. So, to make the fractions multiplication simple, multiply two fractions in the numerator and divide it by the denominators of the two fractions. In the given case,

$-\frac{6}{11} \times \frac{3}{4}$

To simplify, multiply both 6 and 3 in numerator and multiply 11 and 4 in denominator of two fractions. So, we get

$-\frac{18}{44}$

To simplify the above, divide 18 and 44 by their greatest common factor, which is 2. By doing this, we get

$-\frac{9}{22}$
