From the given recurrence, it follows that
and so on down to the first term,
(Notice how the exponent on the 2 and the subscript of <em>a</em> in the first term add up to <em>n</em> + 1.)
Denote the remaining sum by <em>S</em> ; then
Multiply both sides by 2 :
Subtract 2<em>S</em> from <em>S</em> to get
So, we end up with
Answer:
111,117,177,777,771,711,717,171
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute x with its value, -14
y=1/2 (-14)
y= -14/2
y= -7
Hilda bought 15.11 lb of pork.
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost of Beef that Hilda bought = 4 17/20 = 4.85 lb
Cost of the total meat she bought = 19 24/25 = 19.96 lb.
To find the number of pounds of pork she bought, subtract.
Number of pounds of pork she bought = 19.96 - 4.85 = 15.11 lb.
So we know that the bag has total 15 cookies, and 1 cookie that does not have any raisin. Finally, the probability that one cookie won't have any raisin is 1/15 or 7 percent. Hope it help!
