Carlos and Ana were asked to find an explicit formula for the sequence -10,-4,2,8,...−10,−4,2,8,...Minus, 10, comma, minus, 4, comma, 2, comma, 8, comma, point, point, point, where the first term should be f(1)f(1)f, left parenthesis, 1, right parenthesis. Carlos said the formula is f(n)=-10+6nf(n)=−10+6nf, left parenthesis, n, right parenthesis, equals, minus, 10, plus, 6, n. Ana said the formula is f(n)=-10+6(n-1)f(n)=−10+6(n−1)f, left parenthesis, n, right parenthesis, equals, minus, 10, plus, 6, left parenthesis, n, minus, 1, right parenthesis. Which one of them is right?

Ana is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Required

Determine who is right?

To do this, we simply test each sequence.

For Carlos:

When n = 1

When n = 2

This is incorrect because the first and second term of the sequence are -10 and -4 not -4 and 2

For Ana:

When n = 1

When n = 2

When n=3

When n = 4

This is correct.

Hence, Ana is correct

to find the perimeter of the rectangle this is the expression:

x-9+x-9+3x-4+3x-4=138

if we simplify it:

8x-26=138

remember, 138 is what it all adds up to

the length is 11.5cm

the width is 57.5cm

the area is 661.25cm^2

the answers might not be correct use at own risk
