Write the explicit formula
for the sequence 8, 4,0,-4,8
then find the 10th term in
the sequence

The required explicit formula is A(n)= 4-4n

10th term of arithmetic sequence is (-36)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given arithmetic sequence is 8,4,0,-4,-8

The arithmetic sequence is given by a,a+d,a+2da+(n-1)d

Comparing both the sequence we get,

a=8 and a+d=4

For value of d:

d+a=4

d=4-8=(-4)

The explicit formula is given by : A(n)= a+(n-1)d

A(n)= a+(n-1)d

A(n)= 8+(n-1)(-4)

A(n)= 8-4n+4

A(n)= 4-4n

Therefore, The required explicit formula is A(n)= 4-4n

To find value of 10 th term:

Take n=10 in explicit formula

A(10)= 4-4(10)

A(10)= -36

Therefore, 10th term is (-36)

a function could be identified in 3 ways either on a chart,graph, or ordered pairs. first a function is that each point has its own. the rule is that there can be many x's to one y but there can not be 2 x's at different y's. so on a graph when you put a straight line through the y's there should be one dot only to be a function.

step-by-step explanation:

10/60

step-by-step explanation:

if you divide 10 by 60 the answer is 0.166666 while if you divide or solve the other problems it equals 0.6
