Answer:

B)an = 6 - 4n

Step-by-step explanation:Explicit Formula:

Explicit Formula: an = a1 + (n – 1)d

a1 = 2, d = -4

an = 2 + (n – 1)(-4) = 6 - 4n

Given from the question
arithmetic sequence
a₁ = 2
a₂ = -2
a₃ = -6
and so on..

First, find the difference of the sequence
d = a₂ - a₁
d = -2 - 2
d = -4

Second, built the formula
General formula
an = a₁ + d(n - 1)

plug the numbers to the general formula
an = a₁ + d(n - 1)
an = 2 -4(n - 1)
an = 2 - 4n + 4
an = 2 + 4 - 4n
an = 6 - 4n

The answer is option B

What two types of asymptotes can you find from a rational function?
emmainna [20.7K]

Hello!


The two types of asymptotes you can find from a rational function are vertical and horizontal asymptotes.


Vertical asymptotes are determined by setting the denominator of a rational function to zero and then by solving for x.


Horizontal asymptotes are determined by:

1. If the degree of the numerator < degree of denominator, then the line, y = 0 is the horizontal asymptote.

2. If the degree of the numerator = degree of denominator, then y = leading coefficient of numerator / leading coefficient of denominator is the horizontal asymptote.

3. If degree of numerator > degree of denominator, then there is an oblique asymptote, but no horizontal asymptote.


Hopefully this makes sense! (I had to bring out my math notes, my handwriting is actually disgusting.)

Can someone please solve
pentagon [3]

Answer:

78

Step-by-step explanation:

Evaluate 6 (2 x^2 - 5) where x = -3:

6 (2 x^2 - 5) = 6 (2×(-3)^2 - 5)

Hint: | Evaluate (-3)^2.

(-3)^2 = 9:

6 (2×9 - 5)

Hint: | Multiply 2 and 9 together.

2×9 = 18:

6 (18 - 5)

Hint: | Subtract 5 from 18.

| 1 | 8

- | | 5

| 1 | 3:

6×13

Hint: | Multiply 6 and 13 together.

6×13 = 78:
