Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the recursive function tn= tn-1 + tn-2 where t1 = 4, t2 = 6

We are to find t4

t4 = t₄₋₁ + t₄₋₂

t₄ = t₃ + t₂

Get t₃

t₃ = t₂ + t₁

t₃ = 6 + 4

t₃ = 10

Get t₄

Recall that t₄ = t₃ + t₂

t₄ = 10 + 6

t₄ = 16

Hence the fourth term of the sequence is 16

A watercolor painting is 20 inches long by 9 inches wide. Raymond makes a border around the watercolor painting by making a mat

sergey [27]

The mat adds 3 inches to each side, so the length would be 3+20 = 23 inches. The width would become 3 + 9 = 12 inches.Area = Length x width:

23 x 12 = 276 square inches

What percent is $4.50 of $6.00?

arsen [322]

Whenever you see the phrase "what percent" in a question, immediately write down x/100. In this instance, you are going to have two fractions, x/100 = $4.50/ $6.00.

Next you cross multiply. $6x = $4.50 x 100
This simplifies down to 6x =450. Divide both sides by 6 and you get 75. This means 4.5 is 75% of 6.

I hope this helps! Good Luck!
