Generate the nest three terms of each arithmetic sequence shown below.

o-na [289]

Answer:

A)2,6,10

B)2,-6,-18

C)-1,-3,-5

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>A)a1=-2 and d=4</u>

We know that the arithmetic sequence formula is

$a_{n}=a_{1}+(n-1)d$

Now

$a_{2}=a_{1}+(2-1)d$

$a_{2}=a_{1}+(1)d$

Substituting the given value we get

$a_{2}= -2+(1)4$

$a_{2}= -2+4$

$a_{2}= 2$

------------------------------------------

Similarly

$a_{3}=a_{1}+(3-1)d$

$a_{3}=a_{1}+(2)d$

Substituting the given value we get

$a_{3}= -2+(2)4$

$a_{3}= -2+8$

$a_{3}= 6$

-------------------------------------------------

$a_{4}=a_{1}+(4-1)d$

$a_{4}=a_{1}+(3)d$

Substituting the given value we get

$a_{4}= -2+(3)4$

$a_{4}= -2+16$

$a_{4}= 10$

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<u>B</u><u> $a_n=a_{(n-1)}-8$ with $a_1=10$ </u>

$a_2=a_{(2-1)}-8$

$a_2=a_{1}-8$

Substituting the given value

$a_2= 10-8$

$a_2=2$

---------------------------------------------------------------------

$a_3=a_{(3-1)}-8$

$a_3=a_{2}-8$

Substituting the value

$a_3=2-8$

$a_3= -6$

---------------------------------------------------------------------

$a_4=a_{(4-1)}-8$

$a_4=a_{3}-8$

Substituting the value

$a_4= -6-8$

$a_4= -14$

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<u>C) $a_1=3, a_2=1$ </u>

Here the difference is -2

the arithmetic sequence formula is

$a_{n}=a_{1}+(n-1)d$

Now

$a_{3}=a_{1}+(3-1)d$

$a_{3}=a_{1}+(2)d$

Substituting the value we get

$a_{3}= 3+(2)-2$

$a_{3}= 3-4$

$a_{3}= -1$

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

$a_{4}=a_{1}+(4-1)d$

$a_{4}=a_{1}+(3)d$

Substituting the value we get

$a_{4}= 3+(3)-2$

$a_{4}= 3-6$

$a_{4}= -3$

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

$a_{5}=a_{1}+(5-1)d$

$a_{5}=a_{1}+(4)d$

Substituting the value we get

$a_{5}= 3+(4)-2$

$a_{5}= 3-8$

$a_{5}= -5$

To win a trivia game, Negan must score 90 points. Each correct answer is worth 1 3 over 4 points, and each incorrect answer is w

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

Nevan won the game.

He scored 183 points.

Explanation:

Correct answer is worth 13/4 points

Incorrect answer is worth -1/4 points.

Number of correct answers = 58

Number of incorrect answers = 22

Point scored $=58*\frac{13}{4} +22*\frac{-1}{4} =\frac{732}{4} =183$

Points need to win = 90 points

Point scored, 183 >Points need to win, 90

So, Nevan won the game.
