The sequence an=an−1+2 is an arithmetic sequence

The first three terms in the sequence are (a) 8, 10, 12

<h3>How to determine the first three terms?</h3>

The sequence is given as:

an=an−1+2

Where:

a1 =8

Start by calculating a2 using:

a2=a1+2

This gives

a2=8+2 = 10

Calculate a3 using:

a3=a2+2

This gives

a3=10+2 = 12

So, we have:

a1 = 8, a2 = 10 and a3 = 12

Hence, the first three terms in the sequence are (a) 8, 10, 12

Area - Integrals

Integration Rule [Reverse Power Rule]: $\displaystyle \int {x^n} \, dx = \frac{x^{n + 1}}{n + 1} + C$

Integration Rule [Fundamental Theorem of Calculus 1]: $\displaystyle \int\limits^b_a {f(x)} \, dx = F(b) - F(a)$

Integration Property [Addition/Subtraction]: $\displaystyle \int {[f(x) \pm g(x)]} \, dx = \int {f(x)} \, dx \pm \int {g(x)} \, dx$

Area of a Region Formula: $\displaystyle A = \int\limits^b_a {[f(x) - g(x)]} \, dx$

Step-by-step explanation:

*Note:

Remember that for the Area of a Region, it is top function minus bottom function.

Step 1: Define

f(x) = x²

g(x) = x⁶

Bounded (Partitioned) by x-axis

Step 2: Identify Bounds of Integration

Find where the functions intersect (x-values) to determine the bounds of integration.

Simply graph the functions to see where the functions intersect (See Graph Attachment).

Interval: [-1, 1]

Lower bound: -1

Upper Bound: 1

Step 3: Find Area of Region

Integration

Substitute in variables [Area of a Region Formula]: $\displaystyle A = \int\limits^1_{-1} {[x^2 - x^6]} \, dx$
[Area] Rewrite [Integration Property - Subtraction]: $\displaystyle A = \int\limits^1_{-1} {x^2} \, dx - \int\limits^1_{-1} {x^6} \, dx$
[Area] Integrate [Integration Rule - Reverse Power Rule]: $\displaystyle A = \frac{x^3}{3} \bigg| \limit^1_{-1} - \frac{x^7}{7} \bigg| \limit^1_{-1}$
[Area] Evaluate [Integration Rule - FTC 1]: $\displaystyle A = \frac{2}{3} - \frac{2}{7}$
[Area] Subtract: $\displaystyle A = \frac{8}{21}$

What’s the right answer?

Nataly [62]

I will give you the formula and teach you how to solve this. Let’s start with finding the area of both the right triangles.
The formula is, base x height / 2 = area
Triangle 1 - 2x8/2 = 16/2 = 8
Triangle 2 - 2x8/2 = 16/2 = 8
Rectangle - 8x3 = 24
Add them up: 24 + 8 + 8 = 40 square feet
I hope this wasn’t to confusing
