Answer:
avn= -8 + (n-1)(-7)
Step-by-step explanation:
arithmetic sequence formula= avn= av1 + (n-1)d
av1= first number in the sequence
d= common difference
n= the number of the term to find
The common difference is -7 so d=-7 and you plug it into the equation. The first number in the sequence is -8 so av1.
There is no specific n to find so it remains n.
I hope this helps! Let me know if this helps.
1. The average yards gained per play was 10.56
2. The total amount of yards recorded was 450.8 yards
1.) The interval of the value of x is from -5 to 1, inclusive. Remember that what is asked is the absolute value, thus the sign does not matter even if you have to subtract x from 5. Thus, the maximum value would be obtained if the x is smaller, which is 1. The minimum value is obtained when x=-5.
Absolute maximum value:
x = - 5f(-5) = ║5 - 7(-5)^2║ = ║-170║=
170Absolute minimum value:
x = 1f(1) = ║5 - 7(1)^2║ = ║-2║=
2
2.) The Mean Value Theorem (MVT) applies to functions that are continuous and differentiable on the closed and open interval of a to b, respectively. Since the function is a quadratic function, MVT can be applied. Then, this means that there is a value of c which is between a and b. This could be determined using this formula according to MVT:

The differentiated form would be f'(x) = -2x. Then,


Thus, x = -1, x = -1/2, and x=0 all lie in the function 4-x^2.
If this is supposed to be

Then this can simply be reduced to
