For the sequence 2, 6, 18, 54, ..., the explicit formula is: an = a1 ! rn"1 = 2 ! 3n"1 , and the recursive formula is: a1 = 2, an+1 = an ! 3 . In each case, successively replacing n by 1, 2, 3, ... will yield the terms of the sequence. See the examples below.
Answer:
51+(4x+7)=90
4x+58=90
-58 -58
4x=32
4x/4=32/4
x=8

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
20/100 * 5,120 = 1024
Number of cases in 2013 = 1024 + 5120 = 6,144 cases
56.4/100 you always put your beginning number over 100
Answer:
Tanya is 20 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the age of Vera = x years
The age of Linda is twice the age of Vera = 2x years
Tanya is four less than four times the age of Linda = 4(2x)-4 = 8x-4
Total age of Vera, Linda and Tanya is:
x+2x+8x-4
Combine the like terms:
11x-4
But now their total age is two more than nine times the age of Vera:
11x-4 = 9x+2
Solve the expression
Combine the like terms:
11x-9x=2+4
2x=6
Divide both the sides by 2
2x/2 = 6/2
x= 3
Thus the age of Vera is 3 years.
The age of Linda is 2x= 2*3 = 6 years
The age of Tanya is 8x-4 = 8*3 - 4 = 24-4 = 20years....
