Answer:
What question
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
-16
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the sequence:
b(n)=b(n−1)−7, where b(1)=−2
b(2)=b(2−1)−7
=b(1)−7
=-2-7
b(2)=-9
Therefore, the 3rd term of the sequence
b(3)=b(3−1)−7
=b(2)-7 (Recall b(2)=-9 from above)
=-9-7
b(3)=-16
The 3rd term of the sequence is -16.
Answer: x = 2
=============================================================
Explanation:
Refer to the diagram below.
I've added points D,E,F,G. This helps with labeling the segments and angles, and identifying the proper triangles (to see which are congruent pairs).
Triangle GEA is congruent to triangle GFA. We can prove this using the AAS congruence theorem. We have AG = AG as the pair of congruent sides, and the congruent pairs of angles are marked in the diagram (specifically the blue pairs of angles and the gray right angle markers)
Since triangle GEA is congruent to triangle GFA, this means the corresponding pieces segment GF and GE are the same length.
The diagram shows GF = 3x-4, so this means GE = 3x-4 as well.
----------------------
Through similar steps, we can show that triangle GEC is congruent to triangle GDC. We also use AAS here as well.
The congruent triangles lead to GD = GE. So GD = 3x-4. The diagram shows that GD = 6x-10
Since GD is equal to both 3x-4 and 6x-10, this must mean the two expressions are equal.
----------------------
Now let's solve for x
6x-10 = 3x-4
6x-3x = -4+10
3x = 6
x = 6/3
x = 2
Answer:
1) 36
b) 5
c) 3.0
Step-by-step explanation:
1) The recursive formula that defines the given sequence is

That means we keep adding 4 to the subsequent terms:
The sequence will be:
12,16,20,24,28,32,36,...
Therefore the seventh term is 36.
2) The sequence is recursively defined by;

This means, we have to keep subtracting 5 from the subsequent terms.
The sequence will be;
20,15,10,5,...
Therefore the fourth term is 5
3) The sequence is recursively defined by:
f(n+1)=f(n)+0.5
where f(1)=-1.5
This means that, the subsequent terms can be found by adding 0.5 to the previous terms.
The sequence will be:
-1.5,-1.0,-0.5,0,0.5,1,1.5,2.0,2.5,3.0,....
Therefore f(10)=3.0
Answer:
7.25 × 10^6
Step-by-step explanation:
1) put into standard form: 6,000,000 + 1,250,000
2) add: 6,000,000 + 1,250,000= 7,250,000
3) put into scientific notation: 7.25 × 10^6
