Answer:
2 students.
Step-by-step explanation:
add together all of the students and then subtract that from 40.
20+15+3 = 38
40-38 = 2
Given that:
a1=27, an=(an-1)+4
the second term will be:
a2=a1+4
a2=27+4=31
The explicit formula for arithmetic sequence is given by:
an=a+(n-1)d
where:
a= first term
d=common difference
n=nth term
from the information given:
a=27
d=31-27=4
thus the explicit formula will be:
an=27+(n-1)4
an=27+4n-4
an=23+4n
Answer: an=23+4n
3^0 if zero is an exponent then the answer would be 1.
