Answer:
an = -6*(1/4)^(n-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
We have that the recursive formula for the given geometric sequence is:
a1 = -6
an = (an-1) * (1/4)
With the above we can assume that:
r = 1/4
following the rule of the explicit formula that is given by:
an = a1 * (r) ^ (n-1)
we substitute and we have:
an = -6 * (1/4) ^ (n-1)
Therefore the explicit formula from the given data would be:
an = -6 * (1/4) ^ (n-1)

Lesson 7.4 Identify Parts of Expressions Please help!!!!!!!
bulgar [2K]
1.)
The term (2+8) is the amount of fabric Ali bought. You know this because in the problem, it says that she buys “2 white pieces and 8 blue pieces”

2.)
The terms of the equation are
k and 2f

These are the terms because they are separated by the addition sign

3.) $36
You would first find rate per sand which. To find this, you would do:
9/2
This will give you
4.5. Now, you multiply that by 4. That gives you 36.

4.) The skateboard costs 150

How?
30 is 20% of the price. 20x5=100. So, to find the total amount, you would multiply 30 by 150.

5.) About 50 miles an hour.
You always put distance over time. If you do:
400/8
You get the average rate of 50

6.) 5n

How?
Well, there are five cents in every nickel. So, to find out how many pennies, you would multiply the amount of nickels by 5.

Write 2x3 − 3x2 + x5 in standard form. What is the classification of this polynomial by its degree? by its number of terms?
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

  x⁵ +2x³ -3x², degree 5, 3 terms

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume you intend your expression to be ...

  2x³ -3x² +x⁵

The superscript numbers are exponents. Each indicates the degree of the term. In standard form, terms are listed in decreasing order by degree:

  x⁵ +2x³ -3x² . . . . standard form

The degree of the polynomial is the degree of the highest-degree term: 5.

The number of terms is the number of products in the sum: 3.
