I am confused what is your question then i will tell you the answer.
Answer:
p = -5
every element in the sequence is created by subtracting 3 from the pervious element.
Step-by-step explanation:
I am not sure you put every necessary information here.
but I'd the visible information is truly everything, then it's is trivial.
the difference between 4 and 1 is ... well, -3. meaning we subtract 3 from 4 to get 1.
we suspect this is the rule and keep trying.
1 -3 = -2
hey it works.
and -8 -3 = -11
hey, also correct.
and the difference between -2 and -8 is -6, and when we place another item in between (p), we cut that in half again to -3. so, it is all consistent.
therefore,
p = -2 -3 = -5
the rule is
an = an-1 - 3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The original questions is suppose an ant walks counterclockwise on a unit circle from the point (1,0) to the endpoint of the radius that forms an angle of 240 degrees with the positive horizontal axis.
To find the distance ant walked we find the arc length of the sector with central angle 240 degree and radius =1 (unit circle)
arc length of a sector =
arc length of a sector =
arc length of a sector =
Answer:
First term: 5
Fourth term: 5 1/2
Tenth term: 6 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's find the first, fourth and tenth terms of the arithmetic sequence described by the given rule:
A(n) = 5 + (n-1) (1/6)
First term:
A(1) = 5 + (1-1) (1/6)
A(1) = 5 + (0) (1/6)
A(1) = 5
Fourth term:
A(4) = 5 + (4-1) (1/6)
A(4) = 5 + (3) (1/6)
A(4) = 5 + 3/6 = 5 3/6 = 5 1/2 (simplifying)
Tenth term:
A(10) = 5 + (10-1) (1/6)
A(10) = 5 + (9) (1/6)
A (10) = 5 + 9/6 = 6 3/6 = 6 1/2 (simplifying)
