Write the explicit rule of the arithmetic sequence that has a first term of 3 and a fourth term of 18

mr Goodwill [35]3 years ago

Answer:

a_{n} = 5n - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is

a_{n} = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Given a₄ = 18 , then

a₁ + 3d = 18 , that is

3 + 3d = 18 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

3d = 15 (divide both sides by 3 )

d = 5

Then

a_{n} = 3 + 5(n - 1) = 3 + 5n - 5 = 5n - 2 ← explicit rule

Find the volumes of the figures below. I just need answers.
poizon [28]

Hello!

The volume of a cone is found by using the formula: V = 1/3πr²h.

Figure 1 --

From figure one, it shows us the radius, which has a length of 8 centimeters, and the height, which is 14 centimeters. With that values, we can substitute those values into the formula and solve.

V = 1/3π(8)²(14)

V = 1/3(64)(14)π

V = 64/3(14)π

V = 896/3π centimeters³, 938.29 centimeters³ (multiplied by π), and 937.81 centimeters³ (multiplied by 3.14).

Therefore, the volume of the first cone is 938.29 centimeters³.

Figure 2 --

From the second figure, the height of the cone is 19.6 and the diameter is 12. To find the radius, divide the radius by 2, which is will give the radius.

V = 1/3π(6)²(19.6)

V = 1/3(36)(19.6)π

V = 12(19.6)π

V = 235.2π, 738.53 (multiplied by 3.14), 738.90 (multiplied by π)

Therefore, the volume of the second cone is 738.90 units³.
