Use the explicit rule given to write recursive rule for the geometric sequence:

a_n = 20(3)^(n-1)

  see below

Step-by-step explanation:

You know the relationship between the explicit rule and the recursive rule for a geometric sequence is ...

The given explicit rule tells you a1 = 20, r = 3, so you know the recursive rule is the one shown below.

Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

A) a1 = 3

a2 = 3×20

an = 3 × 20^(n-1)

B) a1 = 20

a2 = 20×3

an = 20 × 3^(n-1)

C and D are not geometric

a28=58

step-by-step explanation:

a1=a1+(n-1)d

a28= 4+ (28-1)2

a28=4+(27)(2)

a28=4+54

a28=58

isaiah walks 3 miles due north, turns and then 5 miles due east. how far is he from his starting point?

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

let c = distance from starting point.

(3)^2 + (5)^2 = c^2

9 + 25 = c^2

34 = c^2

sqrt{34} = sqrt{c^2}

sqrt{34} = c
