PLS HELP ASAP PLS PLSPLS What is the explicit formula for this sequence? 6, 2, -2, -6, ...

1 answer:

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

this is just common sense. if you would have tried you could have easily answered this yourself.

the sequence starts with 6. that is a1.

so, the formula simply has to add "something" to 6.

therefore, A and D are out.

and then we see immediately that the sequence is built by subtracting 4 (or adding -4) for every step.

so, we need to add multiples of -4.

therefore, only B is correct (C adds multiples of +4).

Tell whether the sequence is arithmetic. Justify your answer. If the sequence is arithmetic, write a recursive

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

The explicit formula

$a_n = 3 +0.25 (n-1)$

The recursive formula

$a_1 = 3$ for $n=1$

$a_n = a_ {(n-1)} +0.25$ if $n>1$

Step-by-step explanation:

If a sequence is arithmetical then the difference between any of its consecutive terms will be constant

3, 3.25, 3.5, 3.75,

$3.25-3 = 0.25\\\\3.5-3.25 = 0.25\\\\3.75 -3.5 = 0.25$

The difference between the consecutive terms remains constant so the sequence is arithmetic.

The explicit formula for an arithmetic sequence is:

$a_n = a_1 + d (n-1)$

Where d is the constant difference between the terms.

$d = 0.25$

$a_1$ is the first term of the sequence.

$a_1 = 3$

So

$a_n = 3 +0.25 (n-1)$

Finally, the recursive formula is:

$a_1 = 3\\\\a_n = a_ {(n-1)} +0.25$

You are right, it's C. I checked in geogebra bro/girly/dude.

A car's wheels spins at 1000 revolutions per minute. The diameter of the wheels is 23 inches. You want to know how fast the car

ch4aika [34]

Answer:

72,220 inches per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

A car's wheels spins at 1000 revolutions per minute. The diameter of the wheels is 23 inches.

1 revolution = $2\pi$ radians

$\frac{theta}{tome}=\frac{1000 \ revolution}{1 \ minuite} = \frac{1000* 2\pi }{1} =\frac{2000\pi}{1 \ minute}$

Speed $V= \frac{r*theta}{t}$

r is the radius , theta is the angle and t is the time

We know diameter = 23 , then radius = 23/2

Speed $V= \frac{23}{2}*\frac{2000\pi}{1}$

Value of pi = 3.14

speed = 23000* 3.14= 72220 inches/ minute
