Assuming you're solving for d(n), we have by substitution

d(n) = n d(n-1) \implies d(n-1) = (n-1) d(n-2) \\\\ ~~~~ \implies d(n) = n(n-1)d(n-2)

d(n) = n d(n-1) \implies d(n-2) = (n-2) d(n-3) \\\\ ~~~~ \implies d(n) = n(n-1)(n-2)d(n-3)

d(n) = n d(n-1) \implies d(n-3) = (n-3) d(n-4) \\\\ ~~~~ \implies d(n) = n(n-1)(n-2)(n-3) d(n-4)

and so on. After k iterations of this, we have the pattern

d(n) = n(n-1)(n-2)\cdots(n-(k-3))(n-(k-2))(n-(k-1)) d(n-k)

so that after k=n-1 iterations,

d(n) = n(n-1)(n-2)\cdots(n-(n-3))(n-(n-2)) d(n-(n-1)) \\\\ ~~~~= n(n-1)(n-2)\cdots3\cdot2\,d(1) \\\\ ~~~~ = \boxed{n!}

What is the quotient of the following division problem (x+ 1)÷(x^2 + 3x +2)
seraphim [82]

Note: Actually, the division problem should be in reverse order. It should be given as (x^{2} +3x+2) / (x+1) ---------(i)

But according to the given problem (x + 1) / (x² + 3 x + 2).

Here, (x² + 3 x + 2) > (x + 1)

or, (x + 2) > 1

Concept: By using the property of division, if the numerator is less than the denominator then the quotient will always be 0 (zero)

Therefore the option (d) 0 will be the correct option.

List all x intercepts for y= -cos(1/2x + 1/5 pi) on the interval [-2/5pi,4pi]
Dahasolnce [82]
- cos ( 1/2 x + 1/5 π ) = 0 ( and because if cos α = 0, α= π/2 + k π, k ∈ Z )
1/2 x + π/5 = π/2 + k π,    k ∈ Z
1/2 x = π/2 - π/5 + k π  / * 2
x = π - 2π/5 + 2 k π
x = 3/5 π + 2 k π = 0.6 π + 2 k π
Answer:
If k = 0:  x 1 = 0.6 π = 3π/5
k = 1 : x 2 = 2.6 π = 13π/5
