Answer:

$1000

Step-by-step explanation:

We can form an equation for Clayton's account: C = 500 + 10x

We can form an equation for Clayton's account:  J = 400 +12x  

(where x is the number of days)

When the two accounts will contain the same amount, it means: C = J

<=> 500 + 10x  = 400 +12x  

<=> x =50

After 50 days, there accounts will be balance. Then, we substitue x into any of the 2 equation to find out the amount: 500 + 10(50) = $1000

y=1x+4

To find x-intercept:

0=1x+4

1. Subtract 4 from both sides

2. Divide both sides by 1

The x-intercept is -4

The explicit rule for a sequence is given. an=4n−1 What is the recursive rule for the sequence?
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

a_{n+1}=a_n+4

Step-by-step explanation:

Have in mind the definition of the term a_n=4\,n-1, and now work on what the term a_{n+1} is based on the previous definition:

a_{n+1} = 4\,(n+1)-1\\a_{n+1}=4\,n+4-1

In the next step do NOT combine the numerical values, but try to identify the a_n term (4\,n-1) in the expression (notice the use of square brackets to group the relevant terms):

a_{n+1}=4\,n+4-1\\a_{n+1}=[4\,n-1]+4\\a_{n+1}=a_n+4

So now we have the term "a_{n+1}" defined in a recursive manner based on the previous term "a_n"
