Determine which of these sequences is an arithmetic sequence. Then determine the explicit formula that would be used to define t

6)

34, 43, 52, 61, ...

43-34 = 9; 52-43 = 9; 61-52 = 9

The difference between one term and the next is a constant so it is arithmetic sequence

first term: a = 34

difference: d = 9

so the formula:

$a_n=a+d(n-1)\\\\a_n=34+9(n-1)\\\\a_n = 34+9n-9\\\\\underline{a_n=9n+25}$

7)

10, 6, 2, -2, ...

6-10 = -4; 2-6 = -4; -2-2 = -4

The difference between one term and the next is a constant so it is arithmetic sequence

first term: a = 10

difference: d = -4

so the formula:

$a_n=a+d(n-1)\\\\a_n=10+(-4)(n-1)\\\\a_n = 10-4n+4\\\\\underline{a_n=-4n+14}$

8)

-3, -10, -17, -24, ...

-10-(-3) = -7; -17-(-10) = -7; -24-(-17) = -7

The difference between one term and the next is a constant so it is arithmetic sequence

first term: a = -3

difference: d = -7

so the formula:

$a_n=a+d(n-1)\\\\a_n=-3+(-7)(n-1)\\\\a_n =-3-4n+7\\\\\underline{a_n=-7n+4}$

9)

7, 8.5, 10, 11.5, ...

8.5-7 = 1.5; 10-8.5 = 1.5; 11.5-10 = 1.5

The difference between one term and the next is a constant so it is arithmetic sequence

first term: a = 7

difference: d = 1.5

so the formula:

$a_n=a+d(n-1)\\\\a_n=7+1.5(n-1)\\\\a_n =7+1.5n-1.5\\\\\underline{a_n=1.5n+5.5}$

10)

30, 22¹/₂, 15, 7¹/₂, ...

22¹/₂-30 = -7¹/₂; 15-22¹/₂ = -7¹/₂; 7¹/₂-15 = -7¹/₂

The difference between one term and the next is a constant so it is arithmetic sequence

first term: a = 30

difference: d = -7¹/₂

so the formula:

$a_n=a+d(n-1)\\\\a_n=30+(-7\frac12)(n-1)\\\\a_n =30-7\frac12n+7\frac12\\\\ \underline{a_n=-7\frac12n+37\frac12}$

On a True/False test, Amy answered the first three questions wrong but answered the rest of the questions correctly. On the same

borishaifa [10]

Answer:

89.29%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Scott answered exactly two questions wrong. He answered the last question wrong, the 26 questions before it correctly, and the question before that wrong. Since Amy and Scott were both incorrect on the same question exactly once, Scott would have done wrong only in I or II or III question. If I question was wrong by both, total questions = 28, if II wrong total questions =29 and for iii total questions =30

Greatest possible percent would occur if total questions are less

i.e. when total =28

Greatest percent = $\frac{28-3}{28} =89.29%$

Jennifer has a beginning balance of $4,750 in her Checking account. After depositing a paycheck (p), she writes a check (c), and

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

An Algebraic Expression that models the situation is $4750+p-c-d+r$

Step-by-step explanation:

Beginning balance of Jennifer=$4750

Now she deposits a paycheck = p

So, New balance = 4750+p

Now she writes a check = c

Remaining balance = 4750+p-c

Now she writes a check = d

Remaining balance = 4750+p-c-d

Now refunded some money (r) for returning a pair of shoes she bought.

New balance = 4750+p-c-d+r

Hence an Algebraic Expression that models the situation is $4750+p-c-d+r$

A square is divided into three congruent rectangles as shown at the right. Each of the three rectangles has a perimeter of 16 me

nadezda [96]

Answer:

Perimeter of square = 24 meter

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Square divided into three equal rectangle

Perimeter of rectangle = 16 meter

Find:

Perimeter of square

Computation:

We know that rectangle are equal

So,

3b = l

Perimeter of rectangle = 2 (l + b)

16 = 2 (l + b)

16 = 2 (3b + b)

b = 2 meter

l = 3 (2) = 6 meter

Side of square = 6 meter

Perimeter of square = 4(side)

Perimeter of square = 4(6)

Perimeter of square = 24 meter
