N=1→f(n)=f(1)=-5.25 (First term)
f(n)=f(n-1)+1.75, for n=2, 3, 4, ...

Second term:
n=2→f(2)=f(2-1)+1.75=f(1)+1.75=-5.25+1.75→f(2)=-3.5

Third term:
n=3→f(3)=f(3-1)+1.75=f(2)+1.75=-3.5+1.75→f(3)=-1.75

Fourth term:
n=4→f(4)=f(4-1)+1.75=f(3)+1.75=-1.75+1.75→f(4)=0

Fifth term:
n=5→f(5)=f(5-1)+1.75=f(4)+1.75=0+1.75→f(5)=1.75

Answer:
Sequence of the terms:
First, second, third, fourth, fifth:
-5.25, -3.5, -1.75, 0, 1.75

3. Ruby and Sapphire love strawberries. Ruby starts out with 10 strawberries and finds 3 more
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

4 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the time taken for them to have the same number of strawberries be x minutes.

<u>Initially</u>

Ruby: 10 strawberries

Sapphire: 30 strawberries

<u>After x minutes</u>

Ruby: (10 +3x) strawberries

Sapphire: (30 -2x) strawberries

Since we let x minutes be the amount of time that has passed when they have the same amount of strawberries,

10 +3x= 30 -2x

Bring all x terms to one side, constant to the other:

3x +2x= 30 -10

Simplify:

5x= 20

Divide both sides by 5:

x= 20 ÷5

x= 4

∴ It will take 4 minutes.

The following two-way table shows the data for the students of two different grades in a school:
Alenkasestr [34]
There are 18 students in Grade 7, 10 are in band, so 10/18 = 0.56 are in band.

There are 12 students in Grade 8, 10 are in band, so 10/12 = 0.83 are in band.

Students in Grade 8 are more likely to be members of the band.
