Answer:
I've got no idea; I just forgot the answer, but I did my best.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1. Both directions
2. Only in one direction
Step-by-step explanation:
The reason Statement 1 can occur both ways is that if Bo and Mel are connected, it holds true forward and backward.
The reasoning for Statement 2 being one-directional is that if the sprinklers are operating, then the grass is wet will be valid since it's stating ONLY that the sprinklers are on. If it were to reverse and the grass is wet ONLY because of the sprinklers, then it's incorrect as rain could also cause the grass to be wet. Thus, there are numerous possibilities for the grass being wet, which explains the answers.
Given data:
a₃ = 9/16
aₓ = -3/4 · aₓ₋₁
Here, x represents the number of terms ('x' can also be referred to as 'n')
To determine the 7th term (a₇):
We know that aₓ = -3/4 · aₓ₋₁
Thus,[ [TAG_10]]a₃ = -3/4 · a₃₋₁
a₃ = -3/4 · a₂
9/16 = -3/4 · a₂
a₂ = 9/16 × -4/3
a₂ = -36/48
a₂ = -3/4
Next,[ [TAG_20]]aₓ = -3/4 · aₓ₋₁
a₄ = -3/4 · a₄₋₁
a₄ = -3/4 · a₃
a₄ = -3/4 · 9/16
a₄ = -27/64
a₄ = -27/64
For a₅,[ [TAG_30]]aₓ = -3/4 · aₓ₋₁
a₅ = -3/4 · a₅₋₁
a₅ = -3/4 · a₄
a₅ = -3/4 × -27/64
a₅ = 81/256
For a₆,[ [TAG_39]]aₓ = -3/4 · aₓ₋₁
a₆ = -3/4 · a₆₋₁
a₆ = -3/4 · a₅
a₆ = -3/4 × 81/256
a₆ = -243/1024
Finally, for a₇,[ [TAG_48]]aₓ = -3/4 · aₓ₋₁
a₇ = -3/4 · a₇₋₁
a₇ = -3/4 · a₆
a₇ = -3/4 × -243/1024
a₇ = 729/4096
