You have to divide 48 by 4. How many times does 4 go into 48.....................12 times.
Answer:
The expression for the nth term is Tn = 8n -7
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we are to find an expression for the nth term of the sequence.
Mathematically, the nth term of an arithmetic sequence can be expressed as;
Tn = a + (n-1)d
for T2, the equation is
a + d = 9
for T4, the equation is
a + 3d = 25
we can substitute the equation of T2 into T4 but we first need to rewrite T4
a + d + 2d = 25
9 + 2d = 25
2d = 25 -9
2d = 16
d = 16/2
d = 8
now since a + d = 9
a = 9-d
a = 9-8
a = 1
So the expression for the nth term would be;
1 + (n-1)8
1 + 8n - 8
= 8n -8+1
= 8n -7
Simplifying a fraction means most likely having it remain as a fraction and not a whole number and it can be converted as a decimal.
on the other hand, simplifying a radical, you would have no remainders, fractions, or decimals after simplifying.
thats the difference.
im not sure about similarities
Answer: No
Step-by-step explanation: For x 0-2, the y is increasing by +5 every time. However, the moment it hits x=2, it starts decreasing by -5 every time. This means that it does not follow on set pattern (either +5 or -5) and looks more like a ^ than a /.
So a box of 20 chocolates is divided between a group of people based on age
So the ratio for Sibusiso, Dorris, and Freddy is 2:3:5
Add these together, and you get 10
So to find how much each person gets, divide total amount of chocolates by total age
So (20÷10) = 2
So multiply each age term by 2 and you have your answer
(4:6:10)
So Sibusiso gets 4, Dorris gets 6 and Freddy gets 10
