An arithmetic sequence is given by 20, 17, 14, 11, ...
(a) Write down the value of the common difference, d.

(b) Find a100

(c) Find s100

Answers

Answer 1

 Answer:

The common difference equals:

[tex]-3[/tex]

The sum of the sequence equals:

[tex]62[/tex]

The explicit formula of this sequence is:

[tex]a_n=20+(n-1)*(-3)[/tex]

The recursive formula of this sequence is:

[tex]a_n=a_((n-1))-3[/tex]

The nth terms:

[tex]20,17,14,11,8,5,2...[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

An arithmetic sequence, or arithmetic progression, is a set of numbers in which the difference between consecutive terms (terms that come after one another) is constant. This difference is called the common difference.

1. Find the common difference.

Find the common difference by subtracting any term in the sequence from the term that comes after it.

[tex]a_2-a_1=17-20=-3\\a_3-a_2=14-17=-3\\a_4-a_3=11-14=-3[/tex]

The difference of the sequence is constant and equals the difference between two consecutive terms.

[tex]d=-3[/tex]

2. Find the sum.

Calculate the sum of the sequence using the sum formula:

Formula

[tex]Sum=\frac{(n(a_1+a_n))}{2}[/tex]

Plug in terms

[tex]Sum=(4*(a_1+a_n))/2[/tex]

[tex]Sum=(4*(20+a_n))/2[/tex]

[tex]Sum=(4*(20+11))/2[/tex]

Simplify the expression

[tex]Sum=(4*(20+11))/2[/tex]

[tex]Sum=(4*31)/2[/tex]

[tex]Sum=124/2[/tex]

[tex]Sum=62[/tex]

The sum of this sequence is [tex]62[/tex].

This series corresponds to the following straight line [tex]y=-3x+20[/tex]

3. Find the explicit form.

The formula for expressing arithmetic sequences in their explicit form is:

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

Plug in the terms.

[tex]a_1=20[/tex] (this is the 1st term)

[tex]d=-3[/tex] (this is the common difference)

[tex]a_n[/tex]  (this is the nth term)

[tex]n[/tex] (this is the term position)

The explicit form of this arithmetic sequence is:

[tex]a_n=20+(n-1)*(-3)[/tex]

4. Find the recursive form.

The formula for expressing arithmetic sequences in their recursive form is:

Formula: [tex]a_n=a_((1-n))+d[/tex]

Plug in the d term.

[tex]d=-3[/tex](this is the common difference)

The recursive form of this arithmetic sequence is:

[tex]a_n=a_((n-1))-3[/tex]

5. Find the nth element.

[tex]a_1=a_1+(n-1)*d=20+(1-1)*-3=20[/tex]

[tex]a_2=a_1+(n-1)*d=20+(2-1)*-3=17[/tex]

[tex]a_3=a_1+(n-1)*d=20+(3-1)*-3=14[/tex]

[tex]a_4=a_1+(n-1)*d=20+(4-1)*-3=11[/tex]

[tex]a_5=a_1+(n-1)*d=20+(5-1)*-3=8[/tex]

[tex]a_6=a_1+(n-1)*d=20+(6-1)*-3=5[/tex]

[tex]a_7=a_1+(n-1)*d=20+(7-1)*-3=2[/tex]

what is the problem ? you teacher gave you even the conversion rates in the question.

so, when 1 gallon = 3.79 liters, then how much is 4 gallons ?

4 gallons is 4 times 1 gallon. so, of course, we need to apply the same factor to the other side too.

4 gallons = 4×3.79 = 15.16 ≈ 15 liters

and e do the same for all the other table elements :

8 liters = 8×0.26 = 2.08 ≈ 2 gallons

12.5 liters = 12.5×0.26 = 3.25 ≈ 3 gallons

6 gallons = 6×3.79 = 22.74 liters ≈ 23 liters

& What value of x satisfies the system of equations below!
x+2y= 11
4x - y = 8

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{\sf{x=3 \quad y=4}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the term of x and y from one side of the equation.

x+2y=11 and 4x-y=8

⇒ x+2y=11

⇒ x=11-2y

Substitute.

4(11-2y)-y=8

Solve.

Distributive property:

⇒ A(B+C)=AB+AC

4(11-2y)

4*11=44

4*2=8

Rewrite the problem down.

44-9y=8

Subtract by 44 from both sides.

44-9y-44=8-44

Solve.

-9y=-36

Divide by -9 from both sides.

-9y/-9=-36/-9

Solve.

-36/-9=4

y=4

Substitute of y=4.

⇒ x=11-2*4

Use order of operations.

PEMDAS stands for:

ParenthesesExponentsMultiplyDivideAddSubtract

11-2*4

Multiply.

Rewrite the problem down.

Therefore, the correct answer is x=3 and y=4.

This has to be done ASAP!!!The Oval Office: A Place in HistoryElizabeth Kibler1America's presidents have had to make many important decisions during their terms in office. They made many of these important choices in the famous Oval Office. The Oval Office is the private office of the President of the United States of America. Located in the West Wing of the White House, the Oval Office represents the power and responsibility of the president.2Before President Howard Taft built the original Oval Office, most presidents living in the White House did their work in the room that is now called the Lincoln Bedroom. In 1909, President Taft built the first Oval Office in the West Wing of the White House. Taft built the office because he wanted his staff to have a center from which they could all work. A fire in the West Wing damaged the original Oval Office in 1929. President Herbert Hoover, however, restored the office after the fire. When Franklin Roosevelt became president, he moved the Oval Office to a different section of the West Wing so he could easily enter the office in his wheelchair. President Roosevelt completed the modern Oval Office in 1934, and it has stayed in the same place ever since.3Although the structure of the office has remained the same, each president has decorated the office in his own way. The style of the room often changes when a new president takes office. The first Oval Office had green drapes and carpeting. Since then, the drapes and carpeting have been many different colors. Presidents also change the arrangement and types of furniture in the office.4Presidents even have the opportunity to design a special carpet for the Oval Office. The Oval Office carpet includes the Seal of the President of the United States. The seal shows the eagle holding an olive branch, which represents peace, in its right foot, and arrows, which represent strength, in its left foot. A banner above the eagle reads 'e pluribus unum' , a Latin phrase meaning out of many, one. Fifty stars representing the fifty states surround the eagle. President George W. Bushs Oval Office carpet had the seal in the center surrounded by yellow sunbeams.5One fixture of the modern Oval Office is the Resolute desk. The Resolute desk was a gift from the Queen of England to President Rutherford Hayes in 1880. In 1855, American sailors found an abandoned British ship called the HMS Resolute. The United States government returned the ship to England as a sign of peace. When the British Navy retired the Resolute, the Queen had the ships' timbers turned into a desk. Since 1880, all but three presidents have used the Resolute desk. President John F. Kennedy was the first to put the desk in the Oval Office. A famous photograph shows him working at the desk while his son plays underneath it.6The Oval Offices style may have changed over the years, but its importance has not. American presidents have welcomed heads of state, representatives, and royalty to the Oval Office. Furthermore, many presidents do their most important work from the Oval Office, including meeting with members of Congress, vetoing and signing legislation, and making formal addresses to the nation. The Oval Office is a symbol of the president and will interest the public for generations to come.Item bank:Each president has decorated the Oval Office to suit his own tastes.Many presidents do most of their work in the Oval Office.Most presidents worked in the Lincoln Bedroom before the Oval Office was built.The Oval Office represents the power of the president.There is a famous photograph of John F.
