Answer: No

Step-by-step explanation: In order to decide whether the given fractions are equivalent, first write each fraction in lowest terms.

A fraction is written in lowest terms if the greatest common factor of the numerator and the denominator is 1.

So for our first fraction, 4/9, since the greatest common factor of 4 and 9 is 1, we know that are fraction is already written in lowest terms.

For our second fraction however, since the greatest common factor of 20 and 36 is 4, we must divide both the numerator and the denominator by 4 to write our fraction in lowest terms. This gives us 5/9.

Since 5/9 is bigger than 4/9, te fractions are not equivalent so no, 4/9 is not equivalent to 20/36.

No because

36 / 9 = 4

20 / 4 = 5

So they are multiplied by different amounts so they aren’t equivalent

X sqaured plus 4x plus 20 equlas 12x minus 5
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

x² + 4x + 20 = 12x - 5

x² + 4x - 12x + 20 + 5 = 0

x² - 8x + 25 = 0

Δ = √b² - 4ac

= √(-8)² - 4×1×25

= √64-100

= √(-36)

x ∉ R

A recursive rule for an arithmetic sequence is a1=4;an=an−1−3 . What is the explicit rule for this sequence? Enter your answer i
Westkost [7]

Answer:

The explicit rule for the arithmetic sequence is given by:

a_n = a_1+(n-1)d       ......[1]

where,

a_1 is the first term

n is the number of terms and

d is the common difference for two consecutive terms.

As per the statement:

A recursive rule for an arithmetic sequence is:

a_1 = 4

a_n = a_{n-1}-3

The recursive formula for the arithmetic sequence is given by:

a_n = a_{n-1}+d

then;

On comparing we get;

d = -3

Substitute the given values in [1] we have;

a_n = 4+(n-1)(-3)

⇒a_n = 4 -3n+3 = 7-3n

Therefore, the explicit rule for this sequence is, a_n = 7 -3n
