Note: The third term of the sequence should be instead of
, otherwise the sequence has no common ratio.
Given:
The given sequence is
To find:
The common ratio of the given sequence.
Solution:
The quotient of each pair of consecutive terms are:
Similarly,
And,
Therefore, the common ratio of the given sequence is or 0.75.
According with the definition of translation, we conclude that the equations of graphs M and N are m(x) = f(x - 5) and n(x) = f(x) - 2, respectively.
<h3>How to apply translations on a given function</h3>
<em>Rigid</em> transformations are transformation such that the <em>Euclidean</em> distance of every point of a function is conserved. Translations are a kind of <em>rigid</em> transformations and there are two basic forms of translations:
Horizontal translation
g(x) = f(x - k), k ∈ (1)
Where the translation goes <em>rightwards</em> for k > 0.
Vertical translation
g(x) = f(x) + k, k ∈ (2)
Where the translation goes <em>upwards</em> for k > 0.
According with the definition of translation, we conclude that the equations of graphs M and N are m(x) = f(x - 5) and n(x) = f(x) - 2, respectively.
