Answer:
- using the rule given: 2.5
- using an exponential rule: 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Evaluating the linear rule given, for n = 1, we have ...
a1 = 7(1/2)(1) -1 = 7/2 -1 = 5/2 = 2.5
_____
We suspect you may intend the exponential function ...
an = 7(1/2)^(n-1)
Then, for n = 1, we have ...
a1 = 7(1/2)^(1 -1) = 7(1) = 7 . . . . the first term is 7
_____
When writing an exponential expression in plain text, it requires the exponential operator, a caret (^). If the exponent contains any arithmetic, as this one does, it must be enclosed in parentheses.
2a+1 + 3a+2 +5a-9 you would start by combining like terms
2a+3a+5a= 10a
1+2-9= -6
10a-6=94
then subtract 94-6=88
then divide 88 by 10= 8.8
a=8.8
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
-4i+3i=i-8+3i-12
-i=4i-20
20=4i+i
20=5i
20/5=i
4=i
