For the sequence 2, 6, 18, 54, ..., the explicit formula is: an = a1 ! rn"1 = 2 ! 3n"1 , and the recursive formula is: a1 = 2, an+1 = an ! 3 . In each case, successively replacing n by 1, 2, 3, ... will yield the terms of the sequence. See the examples below.
I’ll check it give me a minute I’m mainly writing this so I know to come to this just sec
First you subtract the two equations
x^2-2x+3-6x
You simplify that and get
x^2+4x+3 = 0
Now we solve using the quadratic formula.
We get x = -1 and x = -3.
Now we find the y values by plugging the x values into the equation.
f(x) is the same as y.
y = (-1)^2 - 2(-1) + 3
y = 1+2+3
y = 6
Now for the other x value.
y = (-3)^2 - 2(-3) + 3
y = 9+9
y = 18
So the two ordered pairs are (-1,6) and (-3,18)
If x is the amount of time Gillian takes,
1/10 - 1/x = 1/25
Therefore, the answer is A
