Answer:

1. a_n = a_(n-1) + n where a_1 is 1 or a_n = n(n+1)/2

2. 231

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that from 1 to 3, you add 2; from 3 to 6, you add 3; from 6 to 10, you add 4, etc. The pattern here is add 2, add 3, add 4, add 5, etc.

1. Let the nth term be a_n. The recursive equation can be written as a_n = a_(n-1) + n where a_1 = 1 (Use this because they most likely teach you this in schools)

<em>Here is it written in an arithmetic equation (most likely not taught in school):</em>

We can write an arithmetic expression using the summation formula because it is basically the sum of the numbers from 1 to n, so a_n = n(n+1)/2

2. Using the recursive, we would need to constantly add until you get up to a_21, which would take a while. Using the arithmetic equation, we can simply get:

21(21+1)/2 = 21(11) = 231

I hope this helps! :)

As we can see that common difference is increasing to one more digit after every term

so it means

a21 = 231

Graph (1,1), (1,2), (1,3), (1,4)
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

There is not a way that I can show you how to graph it, so I will try and explain it.

Step-by-step explanation:

(1,1)

^  ^     y-axis

x-axis

You are just going right however many, and then up however many it says.

So if it's (1,1) you will go right one space, and then up one space.

Once you have all of your points on the graph, you put a line through them.

Hope this helps! :)

The scatter plot shows a correlation between the years and the rainfall in centimeters in Tennessee.
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

7

4

Step-by-step explanation:

The <u>actual values</u> are shown on the given graph as <u>blue points</u>.

The <u>line of regression</u> is shown on the given graph as the <u>red line</u>.

From inspection of the graph, in the year 2000 the actual rainfall was 43 cm, shown by point (2000, 43).  It appears that the regression line is at y = 50 when x is the year 2000.

⇒ Difference = 50 - 43 = 7 cm

<u>In 2000, the actual rainfall was </u><u>7</u><u> centimeters below what the model predicts</u>.

From inspection of the graph, in the year 2003 the actual rainfall was 44 cm,  shown by point (2003, 40).  It appears that the regression line is at y = 40 when x is the year 2003.

⇒ Difference = 44 - 40 = 4 cm

<u>In 2003, the actual rainfall was </u><u>4</u><u> centimeters above what the model predicts.</u>
