Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
6 - (2 - 4x)
sophia : 6 + 2 + 4x
sophia's expression is incorrect because she didn't distribute the negative sign thru the parenthesis correctly.
ursula : 6 - (-2x)
ursula's expression is incorrect because....well....I dont know how she got what she got...she possibly subtracted 2 from - 4x and got -2x
a correct equivalent expression is : 6 - 2 + 4x or 4 + 4x
Given data :
a₃ = 9/16
aₓ = -3/4 · aₓ₋₁
Where x is the number of terms ('x' is also written as 'n')
To find the 7th term (a₇):
We know that aₓ = -3/4 · aₓ₋₁
So,
a₃ = -3/4 · a₃₋₁
a₃ = -3/4 · a₂
9/16 = -3/4 · a₂
a₂ = 9/16 × -4/3
a₂ = -36/48
a₂ = -3/4
Again,
aₓ = -3/4 · aₓ₋₁
a₄ = -3/4 · a₄₋₁
a₄ = -3/4 · a₃
a₄ = -3/4 · 9/16
a₄ = -27/64
a₄ = -27/64
For a₅,
aₓ = -3/4 · aₓ₋₁
a₅ = -3/4 · a₅₋₁
a₅ = -3/4 · a₄
a₅ = -3/4 × -27/64
a₅ = 81/256
For a₆,
aₓ = -3/4 · aₓ₋₁
a₆ = -3/4 · a₆₋₁
a₆ = -3/4 · a₅
a₆ = -3/4 × 81/256
a₆ = -243/1024
For a₇,
aₓ = -3/4 · aₓ₋₁
a₇ = -3/4 · a₇₋₁
a₇ = -3/4 · a₆
a₇ = -3/4 × -243/1024
a₇ = 729/4096
13)
A = bh
h = A/b
h = 211.4 / 24.3
h = 8.7
answer
height = 8.7 m
