Answer:
a) Explicit Formula : aₙ = 3. (-3)ⁿ⁻¹
b) Fifth term : a₅ = 243
Step-by-step explanation:
This sequence above is the Geometric sequence. The Geometric sequence is calculated using the formula
aₙ= a1.rⁿ⁻¹
where a1 = first term
r = common ratio
n = number of terms
From the above question, we are given
a1= 3, r=-3 and asked to find the explicit formula.
The explicit formula using the geometric sequence formula =
aₙ = 3. (-3)ⁿ⁻¹
b) The fifth term in the sequence is calculated as
aₙ = 3. (-3)ⁿ⁻¹
Where n = 5
a₅ = 3.(-3)⁵⁻¹
a₅ = 3.(-3)⁴
a₅= 243
Answer:
A) V + 6 B = 372
B) 4V + 12B = 780
We'll divide B) by -4
B) -V -3B = -195 Then we add A)
A) V + 6 B = 372 which equals
3B = 177
1 Bus carries 59 Students
For the Van let's use equation A)
V + 6 * 59 = 372
Van = 372 -354
Each Van Carries 18 Students
