c) (1, 8, 27, 64, ...) Recursivo
d) (2, 5, 8, 11, 14, 17, ...) Recursivo
Step-by-step explanation:
Uma função recursiva é aquela em que os termos subsequentes da função são calculados com base nos termos anteriores
O comportamento recursivo é exibido pelos objetos quando consiste em seguir as partes;
1) Uma base que é predefinida
2) Um processo ou etapa recursiva que produz termos subsequentes pela aplicação de certos processos
Para a série;
a) (5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, ...)
Aqui 5 é a base e os termos subsequentes são encontrados adicionando 2 ao termo anterior, portanto, é uma função recursiva
aₙ = aₙ₋₁ + 2
b) (1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, ...)
Aqui 1 é a base e os termos subsequentes são encontrados ao quadrado da soma da raiz do termo anterior e 1, portanto, é uma função recursiva
aₙ = (√ (aₙ₋₁) + 1) ²
c) (1, 8, 27, 64, ...)
Aqui 1 é a base e os termos subsequentes são encontrados elevando à potência de três a soma da raiz cúbica do termo anterior e 1, portanto, é uma função recursiva
aₙ = (∛ (aₙ₋₁) + 1) ³

Which procedure justifies whether Negative 3 x (5 minus 4) + 3 (x minus 6) is equivalent to Negative 12 x minus 6? The expressions are not equivalent because Negative 3 (2) (5 minus 4) + 3 (2 minus 6) = negative 18 and Negative 12 (2) minus 6 = negative 30. The expressions are not equivalent because Negative 3 (2) (5 minus 4) + 3 (2 minus 6) = negative 18 and Negative 12 (3) minus 6 = negative 42. The expressions are equivalent because Negative 3 (2) (5 minus 4) + 3 (2 minus 6) = negative 18 and Negative 12 (negative 2) minus 6 = 18. The expressions are equivalent because Negative 3 (2) (5 minus 4) + 3 (2 minus 6) = negative 18 and Negative 12 (1) minus 6 = negative 18.
Answer:
The correct option is;
The expressions are equivalent because Negative 3 (2) (5 minus 4) + 3 (2 - 6) = negative 18 and Negative 12 (1) minus 6 = negative 18
Step-by-step explanation:
The parameters given are;
First expression 3 × X × (5 - 4) + 3 ×(X - 6)
Second expression -12 × X - 6
Therefore;
For the first expression, for all X, e have;
3 × X × 1 + 3 ×(X - 6) = -3·X + 3·X -18 = -18
The second expression gives -12·X - 6
When both expressions are equal, we have;
-12·X - 6 = -18
∴ X = (-18 + 6)/(-12) = 1
Hence the correct option is that the expressions are equivalent because Negative 3 (2) (5 minus 4) + 3 (2 - 6) = negative 18 and Negative 12 (1) minus 6 = negative 18.
Answer:
The expressions are not equivalent because Negative 3 (2) (5 minus 4) + 3 (2 minus 6) = negative 18 and Negative 12 (2) minus 6 = negative 30

A set of data includes 107 data points ranging from 0 – 300. If the data is split into classes with a range of 50 (1 – 50, 51 – 100, etc), and there are no values that fall in the class 201 – 350, what can you say about the data? a.All the data lies below 200. b.The median could be in the range 201 - 350. c.The relative frequency of the class 201 - 350 is 0. d.The mean of the data will not be between 201 - 350.
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
The mean is the average summing all values together and dividing by the number of values been investigated.
Hence since no values exist between 201-350 that means the mean can not be there.
Answer:
The relative frequency of the class 201 - 350 is 0.

Find m∠UTS, if m∠UTV=x+15, m∠VTS=140∘, and m∠UTS=15x+15.
Answer:
165
Step-by-step explanation:
First, m<UTS=m<UTV+m<VTS by Angle Addition Postulate. Then, you substitute all the values that you provided for the angles. 15x+15=x+15+140. You then solve for x.
15x+15=x+155
14x=140
x=10
You then plug back in 10 for X in the value of m<UTS. 15(10)+15=165
Solve:
-9(-5-3x)=21
A) 8/9
B) -8/9
C) 22/9
D) -22/9
Answer: B) -8/9
Step-by-step explanation:
I would start by looking inside the parenthesis to see if anything could be simplified. We see the terms -5 and -3x, and upon realizing that there is no way to simplify, we can go ahead and just simplify the left side of the equation as much as we can before worrying about breaking the equation down. Distribute the -9 to the -5 and the -3x (multiply -9 by -5 and -9 by -3x). Multiplying two negative numbers will result in a positive value, so the left side of your equation should end up looking like this: 45+27x=21. Now, we can start working to get the variable on its own. Subtract 45 from both sides of the equation. On the left side this cancels out and leaves you with 27x. On the right side you have more of the negative value than positive value, so you end up with -24. The equation now looks like this: 27x=24. The only thing left to do is divide the equation by 27. On the left side of the equation, this leaves you with just x. On the right side, you get -24/27. Normally at this point I would divide out to get the decimal form (I prefer working with decimals) but bc the answer choices are all fractions there's not really a good use to, so instead let's just find the greatest common denominator (GCD) which would be 8. (Just as a clarification the GCD is the largest number you can divide both numbers by evenly.) Divide both the numerator and denominator by eight leaves you with -8/9. Therefore, x= -8/9.

Answer:d
Step-by-step explanation:(2√7 +3√6) (5√2 +4√3)
To open the bracket, multiply the first rational number (2√7 ) with the two numbers in the other bracket and 3√6 with the other numbers in the other brackets.
2√7(5√2+4√3) + 3√6(5√2+4√3)
Multiply number with number and root with root
10√14 +8√21+15√12+12√18
Then look for the roots which have a perfect number and can be broken down. There is 12 and 18 which have perfect numbers.
10√14 +8√21+(15√4 x√3) +(12√9 x √2)
10√14 +8√21 +15 x 2 x√3 +12 x 3 x √2
10√14+8√21+30√3 +36√2 ans
A company which sells farm equipment must pay a federal tax of 5.5% on every sale. Last month the company’s sales totaled $335,000. How much federal tax is owed?
Answer:
Federal tax amount = $18,425
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Total sales amount = $335,000
Federal tax rate = 5.5%
Find:
Federal tax amount = ?
Computation:
⇒ Federal tax amount = Total sales amount × Federal tax rate
⇒ Federal tax amount = $335,000 × 5.5%
⇒ Federal tax amount = $335,000 × 0.055
⇒ Federal tax amount = $18,425
Therefore, total amount of federal tax owed is $18,425
The first step in determining the solution to the system of equations, y = –x2 – 4x – 3 and y = 2x + 5, algebraically is to set the two equations equal as –x2 – 4x – 3 = 2x + 5. What is the next step?
answers are:
Set y = 0 in y = –x2 – 4x – 3.
Factor each side of the equation.
Use substitution to create a one-variable equation.
Combine like terms onto one side of the equation.
Answer:
Combine like terms onto one side of the equationStep-by-step explanation:
Given the first step in determining the solution to the system of equations,
y = –x2 – 4x – 3 and y = 2x + 5, algebraically as setting the two equations equal as shown: –x2 – 4x – 3 = 2x + 5, the next step will be to combine like terms onto one side of the equation. The like terms are the terms containing the variable x as shown;
-x²-4x-2x = 5+3
As we can see, the term containing x in the right hand side of the equation (i.e 2x) are being brought to the left side of the equation. This will be the next step in the calculation
Answer:
D. Combine like terms onto one side of the equation.

The complete question as found on brainly (question-10746111):
Write down the nth term of each of the following G.Ps whose first two terms are given as follows. Also find the term stated besides each G.P.
i) 12,-3b,......sixth term
ii) 3,-1/3,..........;8th term?
Step-by-step explanation:
1) To solve terms involving Geometric progressions (GPs), we would first state the variables that are to be incorporated in the formula.
i) 12,-3b,......;sixth term
1st term = a= 12
r = common ratio = 2nd term /1st term
r = -3b/12 = -b/4
Then we would find the nth term
See attachment for details
ii) 3,-1/3,..........;8th term
1st term = a= 3
r = common ratio = 2nd term /1st term
r = (-⅓)/3 = (-⅓)(⅓) = -1/9
Then we would find the nth term
See attachment for details
2) we are to determine the sixth term in (i) and eight term in (ii)
See attachment for details
Sixth term= (-3b^5)/256
Eight term = -1/1594323

A boat goes 30 km upstream and 44 km downstream in 10 hours. In 13 hours, it can go 40 km upstream and 55 km down-stream. Determine the speed of the stream and that of the boat in still water.
Answer:
Average speed of boat = 3.67 km/h
Average speed of stream = 0.63 km/h
Step-by-step explanation:
30 km upstream in 10 hours gives a speed of 30/10 = 3 km/h relative speed of boat and stream
Same way, 44 km in 10 hrs = 4.4 km/h relative speed of boat and stream.
Let the speed of the stream be y
Let the speed of both be x, then
x - y = 3.... (1)
x + y = 4.4.... (2)
Subtract 1 from 2
2y = 1.4
y = 1.4/2 = 0.7 km/h
substitute value of y in 1
x - 0.7 = 3
x = 3.7 km/h
Also, 40 km upstream in 13 hrs gives speed of 3.08 km/h
55 km in 13 hrs gives 4.2 km/h
Let speed of boat be x and that of stream be y
x - y = 3.08.... (1)
x + y = 4.2..... (2)
Subtract 1 from 2
2y = 1. 12
y = 0.56 km/h
Substitute value of y in 1
x - 0.56 = 3.08
x = 3.64 km/h
Average speed of boat = (3.7 + 3.64)/2
= 3.67 km/h.
Average speed of stream = (0.7 + 0.56)/2 = 0.63 km/h
Answer:
Let the speed of boat in stream be x km/hrAnd the speed of boat in still water be y km/hr.For upstream = x - yFor downstream = x + yAs we know that,

of 4 inches. What is the area of this rectangle
Answer:
length times width so.... 24
make x the subject of the formula 6x+a=5(x+t)
Answer:
x= 5t - a
Step-by-step explanation:
6x + a = 5(x+t)
If you expand 5(x+t), you will get 5x + 5t
i.e. 6x + a = 5x + 5t
Add the additive inverse of 5x to both sides (The additive inverse of 5x is -5x)
i.e. 6x + a - 5x = 5x + 5t - 5x
x + a = 5t
Then, add the additive inverse of "a" to both sides (The additive inverse of a is -a)
i.e. x + a - a = 5t - a
x = 5t - a
Hope this helps!!!
