Find the explicit formula for a 1 =-4,a n =a n-1 +9,n>=2

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

[tex]a_1=-4[/tex] and [tex]a_n=a_{n-1}+9[/tex] where [tex]n\geq 2[/tex].

To find:

The explicit formula for the given recursive formula.

Solution:

We know that recursive formula of an AP is:

[tex]a_n=a_{n-1}+d[/tex]

Where, d is the common difference.

We have,

[tex]a_n=a_{n-1}+9[/tex]

Here, d=9.

The first term of the AP is [tex]a_1=-4[/tex].

The explicit formula for an AP is:

[tex]a_n=a_1+(n-1)d[/tex]

Substituting [tex]a_1=-4[/tex] and [tex]d=9[/tex], we get

[tex]a_n=-4+(n-1)9[/tex]

[tex]a_n=-4+9n-9[/tex]

[tex]a_n=-13+9n[/tex]

Therefore, the required explicit formula for the given sequence is [tex]a_n=-13+9n[/tex].

Oceanside Bike Rental Shop charges a 13 dollar fixed fee plus 9 dollars an

hour for renting a bike. Carlos paid 58 dollars to rent a bike. How many

hours did he pay to have the bike checked out? *

Answers

Answer: 5 hours  

Step-by-step explanation:

Carl paid $58 dollars in total and this included the fixed dollar fee and the variable amount of $9.

To find the number of hours, first deduct the fixed component:

= 58 - 13

= $45

$45 was spent as a result of hourly fee. The number of hours is therefore:

= Total hourly cost/ Cost per hour

= 45 / 9

= 5 hours

Answer:

C= 93⁰, B= 64⁰, D= 23⁰

Step-by-step explanation:

180= (4x + 1) + (3x - 5) + x⁰

180= 4x+1 +3x-5 +x

180= 8x - 4

184= 8x

184/8= x

23=x

therefore

C= (4(23) +1)

C= 93

B= (3(23)-5)

B= 64

D= 23

93⁰+64⁰+23⁰=180⁰

Which equation represents a nonproportional relationship? Which equation represents a nonproportional relationship? A y = 5x B y = 5x + 3 C y = −5x D y = − 1 5 x

Answers

Answer:

y = 5x + 3 is a nonproportional relationship.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the equation that represents a nonproportional relationship.

If y is directly proportional to x, it would mean that,

y ∝ x

y = kx

Option (b) shows the equation of a line i.e. y=mx+x, where m is slope and x is y-intercept.

Hence, we can say that option (b) represents a nonproportional relationship.

A shipping crate is 9 feet long, 4 feet wide, and 6 feet tall. What is the total surface area of the crate in square feet?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

sureface area of rectanglur object is the sum of the six sides

     Area = Length x Width

   SArea = Top Area + Bottom Area + Front Area + Back Area + Left Side Area

                 + Right Side Area

        since the top and bottom have equal  area  =  long x wide

                  the front and back have equal  area    = long x tall

                  and both sides have equal area  =  wide x tall

              I summed the bottom front and side areas each times 2

   SArea = 2(Bottom Area) + 2(Front Area) + 2(Side Area)

                 factor out the 2 and added the area formulas for the bottom front

                 and side

              = 2 [ (long x wide) + (long x tall) + (wide x tall)]

              = 2 [ (9 x 4) + (9 x 6) + (4 x 6)]

              = 2 [ (9)(4) + (9)(6) + (4)(6)]

              = 2(    36   +   54   + 24 )

              = 2( 114)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello There!

The angle labeled 20x and the angle that has a measure of 80 degrees are supplementary angles meaning the sum of the two is 180

so we can create an equation to solve for x

180=80+20x

step 1 subtract 80 from each side

80 - 80 cancels out

180-80=100

100=20x

step 2 divide each side by 20

100/20=5

20x/20=x

we´re left with x=5

Answer:

n=7

Step-by-step explanation:

71=10n+1

We move all terms to the left:

71-(10n+1)=0

We get rid of parentheses

-10n-1+71=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-10n+70=0

We move all terms containing n to the left, all other terms to the right

-10n=-70

n=-70/-10

n=7

Hope it helps

Answer:

The equation simplifies to n = 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there! We have an algebraic equation with the variable n. We want to solve for n. Therefore, we need to simplify the expression as much as we can.

To do this, we're going to notice we have two like terms in the equation:

711

These two terms can be combined to make one term. In order to do this, we're going to check which side of the equation has two terms.

Left side → 1 termRight side → 2 terms

We are going to then check the sign of the constant. As a reminder, constants are numbers without a variable attached to them.

We see our constant is 1 on the right side and it is positive due to it being added to 10n. Therefore, we are going to do the opposite and subtract it from 71.

71 - 1 = 70

This leaves us with a more simplified equation: 70 = 10n.

To make things easier, we're going to use the commutative property and switch the terms around. This will give us 10n = 70. It is easier to operate when our variable term is on the left side.

Now, we need to get our variable by itself. A coefficient is multiplying the variable by that value, so to reverse that, we must divide.

In addition to that, what we do on one side of the equation must be done on the other side of the equation.

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{10n}{10} = \frac{70}{10}[/tex]

This simplifies to n = 7, which is our final answer.

A rectangular sandbox is in the center of a larger rectangular back yard. The sand box
measures (x+6) feet long and 5x feet wide. The yard measures (6x+7) feet long and 8x
feet wide.
What is the area of the yard that is NOT apart of the sandbox?

Answers

Answer:

(43[tex]x^{2}[/tex] - 26x) [tex]ft^{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the yard that is not pat of the sandbox = Area of the yard - Area of the sandbox

Since both the yard and the sandbox has a rectangular shape, then;

Area of a rectangle = length x width

So that,

Area of the yard = length x width

                            = (6x+7) x 8x

                            = (48[tex]x^{2}[/tex] + 56x) [tex]ft^{2}[/tex]

Area of the sandbox = length x width

                                  = (x+6) x 5x

                                  = (5[tex]x^{2}[/tex] + 30x) [tex]ft^{2}[/tex]

Thus,

Area of the yard that is not pat of the sandbox = (48[tex]x^{2}[/tex] + 56x) - (5[tex]x^{2}[/tex] + 30x)

                                = 48[tex]x^{2}[/tex] + 56x - 5[tex]x^{2}[/tex] - 30x

                                = (43[tex]x^{2}[/tex] - 26x) [tex]ft^{2}[/tex]

Area of the yard that is not pat of the sandbox is (43[tex]x^{2}[/tex] - 26x) [tex]ft^{2}[/tex].
