3 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Here 6 - 8 = 4 - 6 = 2 - 4 = 0 - 2 = - 2

Thus, the common difference between any two consecutive term is - 2.

The recursive formula is given as:

f(1)=a_1 = 8\\\\f(2)=a_2 = a_1 - 2\\\\f(3)=a_3 = a_2 - 2\\\\f(4)=a_4 = a_3 - 2\\\\f(5)=a_5 = a_4 - 2\\\\\therefore f(n) = a_n=a_{n-1}-2 \\

An archway is modeled by the equation y = -2x2 + 8x. A rod is to be placed across the archway at an angle defined by the equatio
Nata [24]
1) y= - 2x² + 8x. It's a parabola open downward (a<0)  
2) x - 2.23.y + 10.34 = 0 . Re-write it : y = (x/2.23) + (10.34/2.23), a linear equation.
To find the intersections between 1) & 2), let 1) = 2)
-2x² + 8x = (x/2.23) + (10.34/2.23) 
-2x² + 8x - (x/2.23) - (10.34/2.23) =0 ; solve this quadratic for x values:

x' (that is A) = 0.772 & x" (that is B) = 3. (these are the values of x-intercept (parabola with line). To calculate the y-values, plug x' & x' in the equation:
for x' = 0.772, y = 0.34 → B(0.772 , 0.34)
for x" = 3, y = 0.016     → A(3 , 0.O16)
So B IS AT 0.34 Unit from the ground
