The <em>missing</em> pattern behind the sequence 7, 11, 2, 18, -7 is described by the formula n = 7 + \sum \limits_{i= 1}^{n} (-1)^{i+1}\cdot (i + 1)^{2}, equivalent to the <em>recurrence</em> formula a_{n+1} = a_{n} + (-1)^{i+1}\cdot (i + 1)^{2}.

<h3>What is the missing element in a sequence?</h3>

A sequence is a set of elements which observes at least a <em>defined</em> rule. In this question we see a sequence which follows this rule:

n = 7 + \sum \limits_{i= 1}^{n} (-1)^{i+1}\cdot (i + 1)^{2}      (1)

Now we prove that given expression contains the pattern:

n = 0

7

n = 1

7 + (- 1)² · 2² = 7 + 4 = 11

n = 2

7 + (- 1)² · 2² + (- 1)³ · 3² = 11 - 9 = 2

n = 3

7 + (- 1)² · 2² + (- 1)³ · 3² + (- 1)⁴ · 4² = 2 + 16 = 18

n = 4

7 + (- 1)² · 2² + (- 1)³ · 3² + (- 1)⁴ · 4² + (- 1)⁵ · 5² = 18 - 25 = - 7

The <em>missing</em> pattern behind the sequence 7, 11, 2, 18, -7 is described by the formula n = 7 + \sum \limits_{i= 1}^{n} (-1)^{i+1}\cdot (i + 1)^{2}, equivalent to the <em>recurrence</em> formula a_{n+1} = a_{n} + (-1)^{i+1}\cdot (i + 1)^{2}.

What equation can be used to show that the slope of the line is the same between any two points?
Blizzard [7]
If you think about slopes it will always be rise over run! Think of rise as climbing a mountain and run as in walking on the mountain you just climbed. In order to find an equation of any problem, you first need to look at a graph for your first clue. See if the line goes straight through the corners of certain places on the graph. If so than you just count rise over run!
In conclusion my thesis or solution for your question would be C.

Solve the quadratic equation by completing the square.<br> =+x^2+16x +61=0
Vlad1618 [11]
X^2 + 16x + 61 = 0
x^2 + 16x = -61
x^2 + 16x + 64 = -61 + 64
(x + 8)^2 = 3
x + 8 = (+-) sqrt 3
x = -8 (+-) sqrt 3

x = -8 + sqrt 3...and x = -8 - sqrt 3 <== ur solutions

Bedroom has a perimeter of 46 feet. If the length is 11 feet, what is the width?
rjkz [21]
Perimeter is L+W+L+W=2L+2W by definition
L=11 so 46=2*11+2W
46=22+2W
46-22=2W
24=2W
W=24/@
W=12

Lets say you have 5 apples, but the you give away 3 of them.
To work how many you have left you take away.
5-3 = 2

Lets apply this with fractions now.
You have 9/7 yard, but then you give away 7/20 yard.
Now you take them away:
9/7 minus 7/20 = 131/140

Hope this helps :)
