Answer:

a_{n}=45-3n

Step-by-step explanation:

Method 1:

Arithmetic sequence is in the form

a_{n} =a_{1} +(n-1)d\\

d is the common difference, can be found by:

d=a_{n}-a_{n-1}=-3

Subtituting the a_{1} and d

You get:

a_{n}=42+(-3)(n-1)=45-3n

Method 2 (Mathematical induction):

Assume it is in form a_{n}=45-3n

Base step: a_{1} =45-3(1)=42

Inducive hypophesis: a_{n}=45-3n

GIven: a_{n+1} =a_{n}-3

a_{n+1}=45-3n-3=45-3(n+1)

Proved by mathematical induction

a_{n}=45-3n

The perimeter of a rectangular store receipt is ten and five-sixths inches. If three of the sides total eight and one-half inche
serg [7]

Answer:

The measure of the fourth side is \frac{7}{3} .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The Perimeter of rectangular store =  ( 10 + \frac{5}{6} )  inches

The measure of three sides of rectangle =  ( 8 + \frac{1}{2} )  inches

So, The measure of three sides = length + breadth + length

I,.e   2 L + B =  ( 8 + \frac{1}{2} )  inches      .....1

∵ perimeter =  ( 10 + \frac{5}{6} )  inches

So ,  2 L + 2 B = ( 10 + \frac{5}{6} )  inches

Or,  2 L + B + B = ( 10 + \frac{5}{6} )  inches

Or, ( 8 + \frac{1}{2} ) + B =  ( 10 + \frac{5}{6} )

or, B =  ( 10 + \frac{5}{6} ) -  ( 8 + \frac{1}{2} )

Or, B = 10 - 8 +  (\frac{5}{6} ) -  \frac{1}{2}

or, B = 2 +  \frac{5-3}{6}

or, B = 2 +  \frac{1}{3}

∴   B =  \frac{6 + 1}{3}  =  \frac{7}{3}

Hence The measure of the fourth side is \frac{7}{3} . Answer
