An Arithmetic Sequence Has This Recursive Formula: A1=8 An=an-1-6 What Is The Explicit Formula For This

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

a p e x

Answer 2

The explicit rule of the sequence is (d) [tex]a_n = 8-6 (n -1)[/tex]

How to determine the explicit formula?

The sequence is given as:

a1 = 8

[tex]a_n = a_{n-1} - 6[/tex]

Set n = 2

[tex]a_2 = a_{1} - 6[/tex]

This gives

a2 = 8 - 6

a2 = 2

Calculate the common difference (d)

d = a2 - a1

This gives

d = 2 - 8

Evaluate

a = -6

The explicit formula is then calculated as:

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

This gives

[tex]a_n = 8-6 (n -1)[/tex]

Expand

[tex]a_n = 8-6n +6[/tex]

Evaluate the like terms

[tex]a_n = 14-6n[/tex]

Hence, the explicit rule of the sequence is (d) [tex]a_n = 8-6 (n -1)[/tex]

The roots of the given polynomial are ±3/7 and  ±  [tex]\frac{\sqrt{3} }{\sqrt{7} }[/tex].

What is a polynomial ?

A polynomial has 2 or more than two terms connected by mathematical operations.A polynomial of degree n has n no. of roots real or imaginary.

A polynomial can be formed as a₁xⁿ + a₂xⁿ⁻¹ + a₃xⁿ⁻² + ...+ aₙx⁰.

According to the given question we have to solve a polynomial of degree 4.

Given, 49k⁴ - 9 = 0

49k⁴ = 9

k⁴ = 9/49

k² = 3/7

k = [tex]\frac{\sqrt{3} }{\sqrt{7} }[/tex].

We know that a polynomial of degree n has n no. of roots.So a polynomial of degree 4 have 4 roots and they are ±3/7 and ±  [tex]\frac{\sqrt{3} }{\sqrt{7} }[/tex].

The locations of each irrational numbers can be estimated as follows:

The irrational number √13 is close to 4 and greater than it. The irrational number √22 is close to 5 and less than it. The irrational number √47 is close to 7 and less than it. The irrational number √63 is close to 8 and less than it. The irrational number √72 is close to 8 and greater than it.

How to locate irrational numbers on a number line

Irrational numbers are real numbers that are not rational, that is, numbers of the form m / n, where m and n are integers and n is different of zero. But it is also known that rational numbers can have an irrational-like presentation not being so (i.e. √4 = 2, √9 = 3). We can estimate the location of each irrational numbers in terms of rational numbers:

The irrational number √13 is between √9 = 3 and √16 = 4, where √13 is closer to 4.The irrational number √22 is between √16 = 4 and √25 = 5, where √22 is closer to 5.The irrational number √47 is between √36 = 6 and √49 = 7, where √47 is closer to 7.The irrational number √63 is between √49 = 7 and √64 = 8, where √63 is closer to 8.The irrational number √72 is between √64 = 8 and √81 = 9, where √72 is closer to 8.

When we talk of the degree of a polynomial, we refer to the highest power

The highest power here is 4 but that is not the degree in this case

The length of the base of a rectangle is 6 less than 3 times the width. The perimeter of the rectangle is 52 inches. What is the length of the base?

Answers

Answer:

The rectangle has a width of 18 inches and a height length of 8 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is described by the equation:

[tex]p = 2w + 2l[/tex]

where l is width, h is height, and p is perimeter.

We're also told that the total perimeter is 52 inches.

We're also told that the length is six inches less than three times the width.  We can express that as [tex]w = 3l - 6[/tex].

We can plug that definition of w into the perimeter equation to find the length:

[tex]p = 2w + 2l\\52 = 2(3l - 6) + 2 * l\\52 = 6l - 12 + 2l\\52 + 12 = 8l\\8l = 64\\l = 64/8\\l = 8[/tex]

Now we can take that and the given perimeter, and substitute those into the perimeter equation to find the width:

[tex]p = 2w + 2l\\52 = 2w + 2(8)\\52 = 2w + 16\\36 = 2w\\w = 36 / 2\\w = 18[/tex]

So the width is 18

Answer:

x = 13

Answer:

x = 13

General Formulas and Concepts:

Pre-Algebra

Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

Brackets Parenthesis Exponents Multiplication Division Addition Subtraction Left to Right

Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define equation

-2x + 6 = -20

Step 2: Solve for x

Subtract 6 on both sides:                    -2x = -26Divide -2 on both sides:                      x = 13

Step 3: Check

Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.

Substitute in x:                    -2(13) + 6 = -20Multiply:                               -26 + 6 = -20Add:                                     -20 = -20

Here we see that -20 does indeed equal -20.

∴ x = 13 is the solution to the equation.

Marie is saving money for home repairs. To date, she has saved $1,195. She needs at least $1,483 for the repairs. She plans to set aside $32 per week to add to her current savings. If this situation is modeled by the inequality below, how many more weeks, x, does she need to continue saving in order to have enough money for the repairs?

Answers

Answer:

Number of weeks= 9

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to calculate the money required to reach the objective:

Money required= 1,483 - 1,195

Money required= $288

Now, we can determine the number of weeks left to accumulate $288 and get to $1,483:

Number of weeks= 288 / 32

Number of weeks= 9
