Harold and Millicent are getting married and need to combine their already-full libraries. If Harold, who has 1/2 as many books

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of books that Millicent has. So the number of books that Harold has is x/2. And the number of book that Harold is bringing to the new home is (x/2)/3 = x/6.

The home has enough room for another half of Millicent's books, which is x/2. So the total books capacity of the new home is

$\frac{x}{6} + \frac{x}{2} = \frac{x}{6} + \frac{3x}{6} = \frac{4x}{6} = \frac{2x}{3}$

Since x is also the number of books in Millicent's old library capacity, we can conclude that the fraction of Millicent's old library capacity to the new home's library capacity is 2/3, or 2 thirds

Use the initial term and the recursive formula to find an explicit formula for the sequence an. Write your answer in simplest fo

agasfer [191]

From the recursive rule

$a_n = a_{n-1}-13$

it follows that

$a_{n-1}=a_{n-2}-13 \implies a_n = a_{n-2} - 2\times13$

$a_{n-2}=a_{n-3}-13 \implies a_n = a_{n-3} - 3\times13$

and so on. Notice how the subscript on a on the right side and the coefficient multiplied by 13 add up to n (n - 2 + 2 = n; n - 3 + 3 = n; and so on). If we continue the pattern, we'll end up with

$a_n = a_1 + (n-1)\times13$

so that the explicit rule for the n-th term in the sequence is

$a_n = -2 + 13(n-1) \implies a_n = \boxed{13n-15}$
