Answer: 2 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4(22-x)=17-x

66/4-3/4x=34/2-x

33/2-3/4x=34/2-x

1/4x=1/2

x=2

that's 2kg because 22*.75 is 17 the difference is -5 each time. 17- another 5 is 12 or 2/4 the original amount. you keep going and at the end you are left with 2kg

Write the following Arithmetic Sequence using a Recursive Formula: an = -7 + 3(n – 1)
Ostrovityanka [42]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (b)  a[1] = -7, a[n] = a[n-1] + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Comparing the given formula to the general form for the n-th term of an arithmetic sequence ...

  an = a1 +d(n -1)

we see that the first term (a1) is -7, and the common difference (d) is +3.

The recursive version of the sequence definition is ...

  a[1] = a1

  a[n] = a[n-1] +d

So, the appropriate choice is ...

  a[1] = -7, a[n] = a[n-1] +3
