Hey there!

"One half of a number" will be a number (x) divided by 2. This can also be shown as "0.5x" or "1/2x", whichever you prefer. 

"...decreased by 16" will be "– 16", making your full equation 0.5x – 16. Remember that terms like remainder, difference, and fewer will always mean subtraction. 

Hope this helped you out! :-)

Th term of a seq uence is n(n-4) /n+3 Work out the sum of the 1st and 6th terms.
AlekseyPX

Answer:

7/12

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term Tₙ = n(n-4) /n+3.

The 1st term T₁ = 1(1 - 4)/(1 + 3) = -3/4

The 6th term T₆ = 6(6 - 4)/(6 + 3) = 6(2)/9 = 2(2)/3 = 4/3

So,  the sum of the 1st and 6th terms is T₁ + T₆ = -3/4 + 4/3

= (-9 + 16)/12

= 7/12
