Answer:

f(n)= -6.5n +14.5

f(1)= 8, f(n+1) = f(n) - 6.5

Step-by-step explanation:

the arithmetic sequence 8, 1.5, –5, –11.5 . . .

First term is 8

Now we find difference between the terms

1.5 - 8= -6.5

-5-1.5= -6.5

difference is -6.5

The formula is f(n)= a1 + (n-1)d

where a1 is the first term and d is the difference

f(n)= 8 + (n-1)(-6.5)

f(n)= 8 -6.5n+6.5

f(n)= -6.5n +14.5

To get recursive formula we use

f(n+1) = f(n)+ difference

f(1)= 8, f(n+1) = f(n) - 6.5

To determine the density of grains, a student uses a 50ml beaker graded by 5ml increments and a scale with 1g absolute uncertain
labwork [276]

Answer:

The mass of the grains = 120 ± 1 g

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given the following:

Total mass of container + grains = 185 grams

Mass of container = 65 grams

Therefore, mass of grains is calculated as follows:

Mass of grains = ( Mass of container + grains) - mass of container

= 185 - 65 = 120 grams.

since the scale has an absolute uncertainty of 1 g, the mass of the grains is written as 120 ± 1 g

Which is a zero of the quadratic function f(x) = 16x2 32x − 9?
tankabanditka [31]
A zero of a function is the value of x for which f(x) = 0
f(x) = 16x^2 + 32x - 9 = 0
16x^2 - 4x + 36x - 9 = 0
(16x^2 - 4x) + (36x - 9) = 0
4x(4x - 1) + 9(4x - 1) = 0
(4x + 9)(4x - 1) = 0
4x + 9 = 0 and 4x - 1 = 0
4x = -9 and 4x = 1
x = -9/4 and x = 1/4
