Problem 4a
The instructions are incomplete. You set up the recursive formula, but didn't ask any question about said formula.
I'll assume that your teacher wants you to list out a few terms. I'll list out the first five terms.
The notation a_1 = 4 is the same as writing [tex]a_1 = 4[/tex] where the '1' is a subscript. It tells us that the first term is 4.
The nth term a_n or [tex]a_n[/tex] is defined as such
[tex]a_n = 2*(1/3 + a_{n-1})\\\\[/tex]
Notice how if we replaced n with 2, then we get
[tex]a_n = 2*(1/3 + a_{n-1})\\\\a_2 = 2*(1/3 + a_{2-1})\\\\a_2 = 2*(1/3 + a_1)\\\\[/tex]
So the second term is directly tied to the first term, or it is dependent on it.
We'll replace a_1 with 4 to get the following
[tex]a_2 = 2*(1/3 + a_1)\\\\a_2 = 2*(1/3 + 4)\\\\a_2 = 2*(1/3 + 12/3)\\\\a_2 = 2*(13/3)\\\\a_2 = 26/3\\\\[/tex]
So the second term is 26/3.
As you can guess, the third term is going to be found in a similar fashion
[tex]a_n = 2*(1/3 + a_{n-1})\\\\a_3 = 2*(1/3 + a_{3-1})\\\\a_3 = 2*(1/3 + a_2)\\\\a_3 = 2*(1/3 + 26/3)\\\\a_3 = 2*(27/3)\\\\a_3 = 2*(9)\\\\a_3 = 18\\\\[/tex]
So 18 is the third term.
We'll repeat for n = 4 to get the fourth term.
[tex]a_n = 2*(1/3 + a_{n-1})\\\\a_4 = 2*(1/3 + a_{4-1})\\\\a_4 = 2*(1/3 + a_3)\\\\a_4 = 2*(1/3 + 18)\\\\a_4 = 2*(1/3 + 54/3)\\\\a_4 = 2*(55/3)\\\\a_4 = 110/3\\\\[/tex]
The fourth term is 110/3.
Lastly, we'll plug in n = 5
[tex]a_n = 2*(1/3 + a_{n-1})\\\\a_5 = 2*(1/3 + a_{5-1})\\\\a_5 = 2*(1/3 + a_4)\\\\a_5 = 2*(1/3 + 110/3)\\\\a_5 = 2*(111/3)\\\\a_5 = 2*(37)\\\\a_5 = 74\\\\[/tex]
The fifth term is 74.
Answer: The first five terms are 4, 26/3, 18, 110/3, 74==============================================================
Problem 4b
Again, the instructions are missing. I'll assume the same thing as problem 4a.
[tex]a_1 = 6[/tex] is the first term
Plug n = 2 into the first equation to get
[tex]a_n = \frac{n}{a_{n-1}}\\\\a_2 = \frac{2}{a_{2-1}}\\\\a_2 = \frac{2}{a_{1}}\\\\a_2 = \frac{2}{6}\\\\a_2 = \frac{1}{3}\\\\[/tex]
The second term is 1/3.
Repeat for n = 3
[tex]a_n = \frac{n}{a_{n-1}}\\\\a_3 = \frac{3}{a_{3-1}}\\\\a_3 = \frac{3}{a_{2}}\\\\a_3 = \frac{3}{1/3}\\\\a_3 = 3\div\frac{1}{3}\\\\a_3 = 3\times\frac{3}{1}\\\\a_3 = 9\\\\[/tex]
The third term is 9
Repeat for n = 4.
[tex]a_n = \frac{n}{a_{n-1}}\\\\a_4 = \frac{4}{a_{4-1}}\\\\a_4 = \frac{4}{a_{3}}\\\\a_4 = \frac{4}{9}\\\\[/tex]
The fourth term is 4/9
Repeat for n = 5
[tex]a_n = \frac{n}{a_{n-1}}\\\\a_5 = \frac{5}{a_{5-1}}\\\\a_5 = \frac{5}{a_{4}}\\\\a_5 = 5 \div a_{4}\\\\a_5 = 5 \div \frac{4}{9}\\\\a_5 = 5 \times \frac{9}{4}\\\\a_5 = \frac{5}{1} \times \frac{9}{4}\\\\a_5 = \frac{5*9}{1*4}\\\\a_5 = \frac{45}{4}\\\\[/tex]
Answer: The first five terms are 6, 1/3, 9, 4/9, 45/4==============================================================
Problem 4c
I'm not much help here for this problem. Not only are the instructions missing, but it's not clear how this sequence is set up. If I had to guess, it's somehow recursively defined. How exactly, I'm not sure. I would ask your teacher for any clarification.

Answer:
25, 33
Step-by-step explanation:
let the length of the one with equal sides be x
third side = x+8
x+x+x+8 = 83
3x+8 = 83
3x = 75
x = 25
x+8 = 25+8 = 33

The Demand function for a product is given by:
D(q) = - 0.0003q^2 - 0.04q + 23.56
where q is the number of units sold and D(q) is the corresponding price per unit, in dollars. What is the average rate of change of Demand between 40 and 175 units sold?
Answer:
The average rate of change of Demand between 40 and 175 units sold is of -0.1045.
Step-by-step explanation:
Average rate of change:
The average rate of a function f(x) in an interval [a,b] is given by:
[tex]A = \frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a}[/tex]
In this question:
[tex]D(q) = -0.0003q^2 - 0.04q + 23.56[/tex]
What is the average rate of change of Demand between 40 and 175 units sold?
[tex]a = 40, b = 175[/tex]. So
[tex]D(40) = -0.0003*40^2 - 0.04*40 + 23.56 = 21.48[/tex]
[tex]D(175) = -0.0003*175^2 - 0.04*175 + 23.56 = 7.3725[/tex]
So
[tex]A = \frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a} = \frac{7.3725 - 21.48}{175 - 40} = -0.1045[/tex]
The average rate of change of Demand between 40 and 175 units sold is of -0.1045.

An urn contains six red balls numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, two white balls numbered 7, 8, and two black balls numbered 9, 10. A ball is drawn from the urn. (Enter your probabilities as fractions.) (a) What is the probability that the ball is white
Answer:
2/10 = 1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
To figure out the probability of something, we can take
(number of outcomes of that something) / (number of total outcomes)
Here, we are trying to find the probability that the ball is white. The number of outcomes that are possible with the ball being white is 2, as there are two white balls and you can only pick one. You can pick either of the two white balls, but there is no way to pick one of them two times, pick two of them at once, or pick any other ball and have it be white.
The number of total outcomes is 10. There are 10 balls, and you can only pick one ball at a time. There are only 10 options to choose from.
Therefore, we can plug our numbers into the formula above and get 2/10 = 1/5 as our probability

CE is tangent to this circle, CD is a radius and ECB=48 what is BAC
Answer:
48degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
From the circle geometry shown, traingle BDC is an isosceles triangle which shows means that their base angels are the same. Hence;
<B = <C
<CBD + <BCD + <D = 180
<BCD + <BCD + <D =180
2<BCD + <BDC = 180
Get <BCD;
<BCD+ <ECB = 90
<BCD + 48 = 90
<BCD = 90 - 48
<BCD = 42degrees
Get <BDC
2<BCD + <BDC = 180
2(42)+ <BDC = 180
84 + <BDC = 180
<BDC = 180 - 84
<BDC = 96
Since angle at the centre is twice that at the circumference, then;
<BAC = 1/2(<BDC )
<BAC = 96/2
<BAC = 48degrees
The perimeter of a fence is 64 feet. The length is 4 feet less than twice the width. What is the length of the fence?
Answer:
20 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
let the width be x
length = 2x-4
perimeter = 2 length + 2 width = 2(2x-4)+2x = 4x-8+2x = 6x-8
6x-8 = 64
6x = 72
x = 12
length = 2x-4 = 2(12)-4 = 20

Answer: Choice A) y - 10 = 2(x - 3)
============================================================
Explanation:
We can rule out choices C and D because this diagonal line has a positive slope (as it moves uphill when moving to the right).
So m = 2 must be the slope.
---------
Recall that
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
represents the point slope form of a linear equation.
The point shown on this graph is (3,10) meaning that x1 = 3 and y1 = 10 pair up together.
So,
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 10 = 2(x - 3)
which points to choice A as the final answer

Let x represent the average annual salary of college and university professors (in thousands of dollars) in the United States. For all colleges and universities in the United States, the population variance of x is approximately σ2
= 47.1. However, a random sample of 15 colleges and universities in Kansas showed that x has a sample variance σ2 = 83.2. Use a 5% level of significance to test the claim that the variance for colleges and universities in Kansas is greater than 47.1. Use the traditional method. Assume that a simple random sample is selected from a normally distributed population.
a. Check requirements.
b. Establish H0 and H1 and note the level of significance.
c. Find the sample test statistic.
d. Find Critical Value.
e. Conclude the test and interpret results.
Answer:
Kindly check explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
The hypothesis :
H0 : σ²= 47.1
H1 : σ² > 47.1
α = 5% = 0.05
Population variance, σ² = 47.1
Sample variance, s² = 83.2
Sample size, n = 15
The test statistic = (n-1)*s²/σ²
Test statistic, T = [(15 - 1) * 83.2] ÷ 47.1
Test statistic = T = [(14 * 83.2)] * 47.1
Test statistic = 1164.8 / 47.1
Test statistic = 24.73
The degree of freedom, df = n - 1 ; 10 = 9
Critical value (0.05, 9) = 16.92 (Chisquare distribution table)
Reject H0 ; If Test statistic > Critical value
Since ; 24.73 > 16.92 ; Reject H0 and conclude that variance is greater.

Find the measure of one interior angle of a regular 7-gon
Answer:
128.57 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the measure of an interior angle of a regular polygon with [tex]n[/tex] sides, we can use the formula: [tex]\frac{180(n-2)}{n}[/tex]
To find the measure of an interior angle of a polygon with 7 sides, all we have to do is plug in 7 into the formula:
[tex]\frac{180(7-2)}{7}[/tex]
7 minus 2 equals 5, so the answer is
[tex]180(5)[/tex]÷[tex]7[/tex]
180 times 5 is equal to 900, and 900 divided by 7 is approximately 128.57

hope this is helpful ask manyDetermine the input that would give an output value of 2/3
==========================================
Explanation:
The steps you have so far are correct. You just need to multiply both sides by -3
Doing so will clear out the fractions and you'll be left with 19 = x, which is the same as x = 19
Let's check that answer:
[tex]y = -\frac{1}{3}x + 7\\\\y = -\frac{1}{3}*19 + 7\\\\y = \frac{-19}{3} + 7*\frac{3}{3}\\\\y = \frac{-19}{3} + \frac{21}{3}\\\\y = \frac{-19+21}{3}\\\\y = \frac{2}{3}\\\\[/tex]
So the answer is confirmed.

What is derivative at a point on line?The slope of the tangent line to the graph of a function at a point is called the derivative of the function at that point.
We consider the line on which where the x coordinate -5 lies.
It is the line with points (-3, 5) and (-6, 9).
Slope of the line = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{9-5}{-6+3} = \frac{-4}{3}[/tex]
f'(-5) = -4/3
We consider the line on which where the x coordinate -1 lies.
It is the line with points (-3, 5) and (1, 8).
Slope of the line = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{8-5}{1+3} = \frac{3}{4}[/tex]
f'(-1) = 3/4
