a. Write a recursive formula for the nth term of the sequence
Ans: a(n+1) = 4*a(n)
------------------------------
b. Write a general formula for the nth term of the sequence
a(n) = 3*4^(n-1)
--------------
c. Calculate S10 for this sequence
Geometric sequence with a(1) = 3 and r = 4
----?
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is
.
Explanation:
In order to subtract the fractions, we must make them like fractions. To do this, the denominators must be the same by multiplying (only). Since the first fraction is
, 3 can be multiplied by 2 to get 6, which is the other fraction, we can multiply it. Whatever you do to the denominator you must do to the numerator. Now multiply 2 by the numerator (10) to get
. Now we can subtract the fractions
and
to get 13/6. Since this fraction is not in mixed fraction form yet, we must do that first. goes into 13 twice, so the whole number is 2 and there is still 1 left, making the fraction
. Therefore, the difference is 2
.

Find Slope
--------------------------------------------------------------
4x + 2y = 2
2y= -4x + 2
y = -4/2 x + 2
y = -2x + 2
Slope = -2
Perpendicular slope = 1/2
--------------------------------------------------------------
Insert slope into the general equation y = mx + c
--------------------------------------------------------------
y = 1/2x + c
--------------------------------------------------------------
Find y-intercept
--------------------------------------------------------------
y = 1/2x + c
at (5,6)
6 = 1/2 (5) + c
6 = 5/2 + c
c = 6 - 5/2
c = 7/2
--------------------------------------------------------------
Insert y-intercept into y = 1/2 x + c
--------------------------------------------------------------
y = 1/2 x + 7/2
2y = x + 7
--------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: 2y = x + 7
--------------------------------------------------------------
Let, the speed of boat = x
Speed of current = y
So, x + y = 280/7
x + y = 40 ---- first equation
x - y = 280/14
x - y = 20
x = 20 + y
Substitute this value of x in first equation,
20 + y + y = 40
2y = 40 - 20
y = 20/2
y = 10
Substitute this in first equation,
x + 10 = 40
x = 30
In short, Speed of Boat = 30 mph, & speed of current = 10 mph
Hope this helps!
