Find the general term of {a_n}
[tex] \displaystyle \large{a_1 = 4, \: a_{n + 1} = 2a_n + 1}[/tex]
Please use the form below to solve.
[tex] \displaystyle \large{a_{n + 1} - x = p(a_n - x)}[/tex]
Show your work too. Thanks!​

Answers

Answer 1

From the given recurrence, it follows that

[tex]a_{n+1} = 2a_n + 1 \\\\ a_{n+1} = 2(2a_{n-1} + 1) = 2^2a_{n-1} + 1 + 2 \\\\ a_{n+1} = 2^2(2a_{n-2}+1) + 1 + 2 = 2^3a_{n-2} + 1 + 2 + 2^2 \\\\ a_{n+1} = 2^3(2a_{n-3} + 1) + 1 + 2 + 2^2 = 2^4a_{n-3} + 1 + 2 + 2^2 + 2^3[/tex]

and so on down to the first term,

[tex]a_{n+1} = 2^na_1 + \displaystyle \sum_{k=0}^{n-1}2^k[/tex]

(Notice how the exponent on the 2 and the subscript of a in the first term add up to n + 1.)

Denote the remaining sum by S ; then

[tex]S = 1 + 2 + 2^2 + \cdots + 2^{n-1}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 2 :

[tex]2S = 2 + 2^2 + 2^3 + \cdots + 2^n[/tex]

Subtract 2S from S to get

[tex]S - 2S = 1 - 2^n \implies S = 2^n - 1[/tex]

So, we end up with

[tex]a_{n+1} = 4\cdot2^n + S \\\\ a_{n+1} = 2^2\cdot2^n + 2^n-1 \\\\ a_{n+1} = 2^{n+2} + 2^n - 1 \\\\\implies \boxed{a_n = 2^{n+1} + 2^{n-1} - 1}[/tex]

An appliance store bought a clothes dryer and marked it up 20% from the original cost of $866.71. Later on, Jackie purchased the dryer and paid 4% sales tax. How much, including tax, did she pay for the dryer?

Answers

Answer:

$1081.65

Step-by-step explanation:

866.71/5 gives you 173.34 as 20 percent

add that to the original fir an upmarket and it will be 1040.05.

4 percent of that is $41.60 so add that again and you get 1081.65 as the total amount paid.

The amount Jackie paid for the clothes dryer is  $1081.65.

What does mark up and tax mean?

Mark up means that the price of an item was increased by a certain percentage. Tax is a compulsory sum levied on the purchase of goods and services. Taxes increase the price of products.

What is the amount paid by Jackie?

The mark up price of the clothes dryer = 1.20 x $866.71 = $1040.05

Amount paid by Jackie = 1.04 x $1040.05 = $1081.65
