Answer:

-8, 5 , 0 , -7 , 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

t_n = (-1)^{n+1}(n^2 - 9)

Required

The first five terms

When n = 1

t_1 = (-1)^{1+1}(1^2 - 9)

t_1 = (-1)^{2}(1 - 9)

t_1 = -8

When n =2

t_2 = (-1)^{2+1}(2^2 - 9)

t_2 = (-1)^3 * (4 - 9)

t_2 = 5

t_3 = (-1)^{3+1}(3^2 - 9)

t_3 = (-1)^{4}(9 - 9)

t_3 = 0

t_4 = (-1)^{4+1}(4^2 - 9)

t_4 = (-1)^5(16 - 9)

t_4 = -7

t_5 = (-1)^{5+1}(5^2 - 9)

t_5 = (-1)^{6}(25 - 9)

t_5 = 16

So, the first five terms are: -8, 5 , 0 , -7 , 16

Janelle has a 12-ounce can of soft drink. She drinks 3/5 of the soft drink.
guapka [62]

Answer:

Answer:  4.8 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

In total there are 12 ounces. If she drinks 3/5 of 12 you multiply 3/5 by 12.

3/5 * 12 would be equal to 3/5 * 12/1 which is 36/5. You have found how much she has drank. 36/5 is also equal to 7.2 ounces. Subtract 7.2 form 12 and you get 4.8 ounces.

Hope this helped!

HOW DO U COMBINE LIKE TERMS in math?? DO NOT LOOK IT UP :) THX
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

"Like terms" are terms with the same variable or exponents.

You can add or subtract these just like you would with regular numbers.

Examples:

2x + 4x = 6x

5xy + 7xy = 12xy

6x^{2} + 5x^{2} = 11x^{2}

Let me know if you need more examples or have any questions :)
