J. reexamine the sequence 20, 14, 8, 2, from the problem
term of the sequence.
-- from the problem above. write an equation for the nth

The n th of the given sequence is

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 :-

Given sequence is 20,14,8,2,.......this sequence in arithmetic progression but this sequence is decreasing sequence.

given first term is 20 and difference is

now the nth term of given sequence is

by using formula

final -

verification:-

put n=1 we get first term is 20

put n=2 we get second term is 14

put n=3 we get third term is 8

put n=4 we get fourth term is 2

so the n th term of sequence is

(-5,-28)

i graphed to on desmos.

explanation:

infrared radiation has wavelength in the range between 700 nm and 1 mm. lets' convert these values into scientific notation, keeping in mind that:

let's start from the lower value, we have:

(we moved the dot two places to the left, so we increased the exponent by 2 units, from -9 to -7)

the higher value is:

so, the range of wavelength of infrared radiation is:
