Answer:
a_n = 2^(n - 1) 3^(3 - n)
Step-by-step explanation:
9,6,4,8/3,…
a1 = 3^2
a2 = 3 * 2
a3 = 2^2
As we can see, the 3 ^x is decreasing and the 2^ y is increasing
We need to play with the exponent in terms of n
Lets look at the exponent for the base of 2
a1 = 3^2 2^0
a2 = 3^1 2^1
a3 = 3^ 0 2^2
an = 3^ 2^(n-1)
I picked n-1 because that is where it starts 0
n = 1 (1-1) =0
n=2 (2-1) =1
n=3 (3-1) =2
Now we need to figure out the exponent for the 3 base
I will pick (3-n)
n =1 (3-1) =2
n =2 (3-2) =1
n=3 (3-3) =0
Answer:
- 3, - 1, 1
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the first 3 terms substitute n = 1, 2, 3 into the formula
a₁ = 2(1) - 5 = 2 - 5 = - 3
a₂ = 2(2) - 5 = 4 - 5 = - 1
a₃ = 2(3) - 5 = 6 - 5 = 1
The first 3 terms are - 3, - 1, 1

Answer:
£1690
Step-by-step explanation:
Amount invested by Brian = £1300
rate of simple interest = 10%
To find money Brian will have after three years
He will have amount invested in bank and interest earned in three years from that amount.
Simple interest for any principal amount p is given by
SI = P*R * T /100
where SI is simple interest earned
T is time period for which simple interest is earned
R is rate of interest
Substituting value of P , R and T we have
SI = 1300*10* 3 /100 = 390
Therefor interest earned will be £390
Total money with Brian after three years = principal amount invested + interest earned in 3 years
= £1300 + £390 = £1690
