Find the recursive rule, explicit rule, and f(20)

Find The Recursive Rule, Explicit Rule, And F(20)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Recursive:

[tex]f(1)=4, f(n)=f(n-1)-4[/tex]

Explicit:

[tex]f(n)=4-4(n-1)[/tex]

And the 20th term f(20) is -72.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the sequence:

4, 0, -4, -8...

Let’s find the recursive and explicit rule for the sequence.

Recursive Rule:

Let’s determine the factor by which the sequence is decreasing by. We see that each subsequent term is 4 less than the previous term. In other words, our common difference is -4.

So, this is a arithmetic sequence.

The standard format for an recursive rule for an arithmetic sequence is:

[tex]f(1)=a , f(n)=f(n-1)+(d)[/tex]

Where a is the initial term and d is our common difference.

From our sequence, we know that our initial term a is 4.

We also determined that our common difference is -4.

Substitute. Hence, our recursive rule is:

[tex]f(1)=4, f(n)=f(n-1)-4[/tex]

Explicit Rule:

The standard format for an explicit rule for an arithmetic sequence is:

[tex]f(n)=a+d(n-1)[/tex]

Where a is the initial term and d is the common difference. So, again, let’s substitute 4 for a and -4 for d. Hence, our explicit formula is:

[tex]f(n)=4-4(n-1)[/tex]

To find f(20), we can use the explicit formula. It is possible to use the recursive formula, but it gets tedious. Therefore, we will substitute 20 for n for our explicit formula:

[tex]f(20)=4-4(20-1)[/tex]

Evaluate:

[tex]\begin{aligned} f(20)&=4-4(19) \\ f(20)&=4-76 \\ f(20)&=-72 \end{aligned}[/tex]

Hence, our 20th term is -72.

Let p(x) = -2x - 9. If p(x) = -19, find x.

Answers

Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Flip the equation.

−2x−9=−19

Step 2: Add 9 to both sides.

−2x−9+9=−19+9

−2x=−10

Step 3: Divide both sides by -2.

Exact Form:

x = 9/17

Decimal Form:

x = 0.52941176…

Edit: "but what are the steps to get 9/17"

1. Move all terms containing x to the left side of the equation.

2. Divide each term by −17 and simplify.

Answers

Answer:

The range includes all numbers from 5 to 12.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The range is along y- axis and the domain is along x- axis.

Range is given in heights and domain is given in time seconds.

It can depicted that for t= 0 secs the ball is at 5 feet and so on .

Therefore the range is given by numbers from 5 to 12.5.

Whereas the domain is given by numbers 0 t0 8.5 seconds

The range is the values of 'y' and the domain is the values of 'x'. So, the range of the includes all numbers between 5 and 12.5 and the domain includes all numbers between 0 and 8.5.

Given :

A child tosses a baseball up into the air. On its way down, it gets caught in a tree for several seconds before falling back down to the ground.

The graph attached below shows the given scenario that "A child tosses a baseball up into the air. On its way down, it gets caught in a tree for several seconds before falling back down to the ground".

The y-axis shows the height of the ball in feet from the ground and the x-axis shows the time in seconds.

The range is the values of 'y' and the domain is the values of 'x'. So, the range of the includes all numbers between 5 and 12.5 and the domain includes all numbers between 0 and 8.5.

Therefore, the correct option is A) The range includes all numbers from 5 to 12.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

to find a discount you would multiply 50(0.20) whatever amount you get you would subtract that from 50

this is the same as 50(0.80)

I’m pretty sure it’s d, because 50 (0.80) = 50 x 0.80 which equals 40 which is the 20% discount off of 50

Answer:

4*3 - 3*3;

Joe read 3 more books than Craig

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Craig:

3 books weekly for 3 weeks

Joe:

4 books weekly for 4 weeks

Required

How many more books did Joe read.

First, we need to determine number of books Craig reads

If in a week, Craig reads 3 books

Then in 3 weeks, Craig reads 3 * 3 books

Next, we need to determine number of books Joe reads

If in a week, Joe reads 3 books

Then in 4 weeks, Joe reads 4 * 3 books

Next, we determine the difference;

[tex]Difference = 4 * 3 - 3 * 3[/tex]

[tex]Difference = 12 - 9[/tex]

[tex]Difference = 3[/tex]

Hence, Joe reads 3 more books

3. (Angles add up to 180)

30x + 4 + 86 = 180

30x + 90 = 180

subtract 90 from both sides

30x = 90

Now divide by 30

x = 3

Check your work ( input 3 to the equation)

30(3) + 4 + 84

90+ 90 = 180  it works :)  

4. (Angles are adjacent to each other so there equal)

10x - 3 = 77

add 3 to both sides

10x = 80

divide it by 10

x = 8

Check your work ( input 8 to the equation )

10(8) -3 = 77

80 - 3 = 77

77 = 77

={(a+b) (a+b)} (a+b)

={a(a+b) + b(a+b)} (a+b)

=(a^2 + ab + ab + b^2) (a+b)

=(a^2 + b^2 + 2ab) (a+b)

=a^2(a+b) + b^2(a+b) + 2ab(a+b)

=a^3 + a^2b + ab^2 + b^3 + 2a^2b + 2ab^2

=a^3 + b^3 + 3a^2b + 3ab^2

=a^3 + b^3 + 3ab(a+b)

(a+b)^3 = a^3 + b^3 + 3ab(a+b)

(a+b)^3 - 3ab(a+b) = a^3 + b^3

a^3 + b^3 = (a+b)^3 - 3ab(a+b)

Answer:

y = 2x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = 2, thus

y = 2x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (3, 5) into the partial equation

5 = 6 + c ⇒ c = 5 - 6 = - 1

y = 2x - 1 ← equation of line
