Mathematics

RUDIKE [14]2 years ago

Answer:

Thomas is not correct, x-2 is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Thomas made his mistake by multiplying the 1/2 by both (6x-2) and -(2x+1). Thomas should have multiplied the 1/2 by just the (6x-2).

Correct procedure:

1/2 (6x-2)-(2x+1)

(3x-1)-(2x+1)

3x-1-2x-1

x-2

He is not correct, his mistake was multiplying 1/2 to 2x and 1, when you should have multiplied the negative to them.

Answer:   \bold{a_{n+1}=\dfrac{1}{2}a_n}

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Term-to-term rule is also called the recursive rule.

The recursive rule for a geometric sequence is: a_{n+1}=a_n\cdot r  where

  • a_n\ \text{is the previous term}
  • r is the common ratio

The common ratio (r) is the second term divided by the first term <em>(which is the same ratio for each term divided by its previous term) </em>

In the given sequence {64, 32, 16, 8, 4}, r=\dfrac{32}{64}\quad \rightarrow \quad r=\dfrac{1}{2}

So, the recursive rule is: {a_{n+1}=a_n\cdot \dfrac{1}{2}

Please help me with this and please show me a step by step
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The width w is 4 feet longer than two times the length , then

w = 2l + 4

The area (A) of the rectangle is length × width , then

A = l(2l + 4)  ← distribute parenthesis

A = 2l² + 4l

Given A = 16

2l² + 4l = 16

Subtract 16 from both sides

2l² + 4l - 16 = 0 ( divide through by 2 )

l² + 2l - 8 = 0 ← in standard form

(l + 4)(l - 2) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for l

l + 4 = 0 ⇒ l = - 4

l - 2 = 0 ⇒ l = 2

However l > 0 then l = 2

and w = 2l + 4 = 2(2) + 4 = 4 + 4 = 8

The length of the rectangle is 2 feet and

the width is 8 feet

Proof:

3(1) = 3

3(3) = 9


5. 9(3) = 27

6. 27(3) = 81

7. 81(3) = 243


The 7th term is 243.
