Step-by-step explanation:
The n th term ( explicit formula ) of an arithmetic sequence is
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Given a₁₂ = - 95 and a₃₇ = - 270 , then
a₁ + 11d = - 95 → (1)
a₁ + 36d = - 270 → (2)
Subtract (1) from (2) term by term to eliminate a₁
25d = - 175 ( divide both sides by 25 )
d = - 7
Substitute d = - 7 into (1) and solve for a₁
a₁ + 11(- 7) = - 95
a₁ - 77 = - 95 ( add 77 to both sides )
a₁ = - 18 , thus
= - 18 - 7(n - 1) = - 18 - 7n + 7 = - 7n - 11
= - 7n - 11 ← explicit formula
--------------------------------------------------------------
The recursive formula allows a term in the sequence to be found by adding the common difference d to the previous term, thus
= 
- 7 with a₁ = - 18 ← recursive formula
Answer:
Dalton spent 6 years and 11 months in high school.
Step-by-step explanation:
Dalton were in high school at the age = 11 years and 3 months He left high school at the age = 18 years and 2 months
Time spent by Dalton in high school = 18 years 2 months - 11 years and 3 months
= (18 - 11) years and (2 - 3) months
= 7 years - 1 month
= (6 + 1) years - 1 month
= 6 years + 1 year - 1 month
= 6years + 12 months - 1 month
= 6 years + 11 months
Therefore, Dalton spent 6 years and 11 months in high school.
Two candles=8 hours=8*60=480 minutes
4 inch is 4/12 of a candle, 4/12 of 4 hours=16/12=4/3 hours=80 minutes
so the total minutes are 480+80=560
