An arithmetic sequence has this recursive formula: What is the explicit formula for this sequence? A. an=-6+(n-2)8 B. an=8+(n-6)(-1) C. an=8+(n-1)(-6) D. an=8+(n-1)6

an = 8 + (n-1) *(-6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The explicit formula is

an = a1+ d (n-1)  where a1 is the initial value and d is the common difference

The initial value is 8  so a1 = 8

The common difference is what we are adding or subtracting each time

We are subtracting 6 each time as we see from the recursive forumla

so d = -6

an = 8 -6(n-1)

or

an = 8 + (n-1) *(-6)

C

Step-by-step explanation:

0.16 or 16%

step-by-step explanation:

lets take a coin for example.

if you toss it twice, it has a 1/4 chance of landing on heads both times because 1/2 * 1/2 is 1/4.

with the cards, the chance of picking dog is 0.4. having two people pick one is like picking a card twice in a row. so 0.4 * 0.4 is 0.16, or 16%
