Answer:

a(n)=1+(n-1)(-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice there's a common difference of d=-3.

If we use the formula a(n)=a1+(n-1)d to find the nth term given the first term and the common difference, we will see that the function that describes the arithmetic sequence as a(n)=1+(n-1)(-3)

If f(x)=4x-2 and g(x)=-8x+7, find h(x)=f(x) - g(x)

user100 [1]

Answer:

$h(x)=12x-9$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the two functions:

$f(x)=4x-2\text{ and } g(x)=-8x+7$

And we want to find:

$h(x)=f(x)-g(x)$

So, by substitution:

$h(x)=(4x-2)-(-8x+7)$

Simplify. Distribute:

$h(x)=(4x-2)+(8x-7)$

Rearrange:

$h(x)=(4x+8x)+(-2-7)$

Combine like terms. Hence:

$h(x)=12x-9$

How do I create a model to prove answer what is 15% of 60? I know the answer is 9 but very confused on how to show model.

You could draw a pie graph, I'm assuming you know how to draw one but I'll tell you anyways. draw a circle with sixty slices, like pizza. shade in 15 percent, or nine sclices. that's my favorite way to model percentages.
