Answer:

first option

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a common ratio r between consecutive terms in the sequence, that is

r = - 15 ÷ 3 = 75 ÷ - 15 = - 375 ÷ 75 = - 5

The recursive formula allows a term in the sequence to be found by multiplying the previous term by r , thus

f(n) = - 5f(n - 1) if n > 1

with f(1) = 3 ← first term

Determine an exact value for sin _<br> 3π/4-tan 5π/6

iris [78.8K]

Answer:

$\frac{3\sqrt{2}+2\sqrt{3}}{6}$ or $\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}+\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sin\frac{3\pi}{4}-\tan\frac{5\pi}{6}\\\\\sin\frac{3\pi}{4}-\frac{\sin\frac{5\pi}{6}}{\cos\frac{5\pi}{6}}\\ \\\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}-\frac{\frac{1}{2} }{-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}\\ \\\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}+\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\\ \\\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}+\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}\\ \\\frac{3\sqrt{2}}{6}+\frac{2\sqrt{3}}{6}\\ \\\frac{3\sqrt{2}+2\sqrt{3}}{6}$
