Ответ:
a) The error is that, the initial value is n=1 NOT n=3
b) The sum is![a_n=a_{n+1}+5=192](/tpl/images/0541/1933/6a76f.png)
c)The explicit formula is![a_n=5n+3](/tpl/images/0541/1933/4f222.png)
The recursive formula is
,
Step-by-step explanation:
The given arithmetic series is 8 + 13 + ... + 43.
The first term is
, the common difference is ![d=13-8=5](/tpl/images/0541/1933/7244e.png)
The nth term is given by:
We substitute the values to get:
To find how many terms are in the sequence we solve the equation:
The summation notation is![\sum_{n=1}^8(3+5n)](/tpl/images/0541/1933/ceb6d.png)
The error the student made is in the initial value.
It should be n=1 NOT n=3
b) The sum of the arithmetic series is calculated using:
We substitute o get:
c) The explicit formula we already calculated in a), which is![a_n=3+5n](/tpl/images/0541/1933/c0711.png)
The recursive formula is given as:
We substitute d=5 to get:
Ответ:
4/7 + 8/15 = 1 11/105
Step-by-step explanation:
4/7 + 8/15 = 1 11/105
= (4/7 x 15/15) + (8/15 x 7/7)
= 60/105 + 56/105
= 116/105 = 1 11/105
