Answer:

The first 5 terms are 2, 5, 8, 11, 14.

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. You use the formula to find out each term.
  2. f(n)=3n-1 starting with n=1. If n=1 that is the 1st term, if n=2 that is the 2nd term, and so on. n means what number term it is.
  3. Now to find each term:
  • n=1: f(1)= 3(1)-1= 3-1= 2 The 1st term is 2
  • n=2: f(2)= 3(2)-1= 6-1= 5 The 2nd term is 5
  • n=3: f(3)= 3(3)-1= 9-1=8 The 3rd term is 8
  • n=4: f(4)= 4(3)-1= 12-1= 11 The 4th term is 11
  • n=5: f(5)= 5(3)-1= 15-1= 14 The 5th term is 14

So the first 5 terms are 2,5,8,11,14

ok so if you have 3 and 1/4 pizza and want to subtract 3/4 out of it,and get 3x more slices then you had from a friend after sub
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

You have 2 and 1/2 pizzas and your friend has 5/6 of a pizza.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have 3 1/4 pizzas. If you get rid of 3/4 of a pizza, you will end up with 2 2/4 pizzas.

To make it easier, you can just change the values into improper fractions: 3 1/4 = 13/4

13/4 - 3/4 = 10/4

10/4 = 2 2/4 pizzas

(2 2/4 = 2 1/2)

Anyways! You now have 2 and a half pizzas. You have 3 times the amount of pizza that your friend has. In other words, your friend has 1/3 the amount of pizza that you have. You can solve for this in two ways, whichever way you solve it is up to you.

  1. You can solve this problem by dividing the amount of food you have by 3: \frac{2\frac{1}{2} }{3} which equals 0.8333... (the 3 is repeating). But you can just keep your final answer in fraction form if you want to: \frac{2.5}{3} = \frac{5}{6}
  2. You can solve this problem by multiplying 1/3 to the amount of food you have: \frac{1}{3} * 2 \frac{2}{4}\\=\frac{10}{12}\\ =\frac{5}{6}

You have 2 and 1/2 pizzas and your friend has 5/6 of a pizza.
