Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

-4 (1/3)^(n-1)

Part A

<em><u>For n = 1</u></em>

-4(1/3)^(1 - 1)

-4(1/3)^0    Anything to the 0 power (except 0) is 1

-4 (1)

-4

<em><u>n = 2</u></em>

-4(1/3)^(2 - 1)

-4*(1/3)^1

-4/3

<em><u>n = 3</u></em>

- 4(1/3)^2

-4/9

<em><u>n = 4</u></em>

-4/(1/3)^3

-4 / 27

Part B

The series converges.

1/3 is between -1 <= 1/3 <= 1

Part C

<em><u>Formula</u></em>

Sum = a/(1 - r)

a = - 4

r = 1/3

Sum = -4/(1 - 1/3) = -4//2/3 = - 4/(0.666666666...) = -6

F:f(x²+3)² is defined on the set R of real numbers. Find the gradient of f(x) at x = 2<br>​
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

The gradient of the function at x = 2 is 56

Step-by-step explanation:

f : f(x² + 3)²

df / dx = 4x(x² +3)

At x = 2

df / dx (= gradient) = 4 x 2 x (2² + 3)

= 8 x (7)

= 56

A real estate developer builds a small number of model homes, one each in a different style. During an open house event, there i
saul85 [17]

Answer:

  y = 2^x +5

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of new houses doubles each month, so the base (b) is that multiplier, 2. Then x is the number of months since the construction started (presumably at the end of the open house). If you want x to be something else, then h needs to be chosen so that (x -k) is the number of months the doubling has been taking place.

The value h represents the initial build of 5 houses. This is confirmed by the number 261 = 256 + 5 = 2^8 +5.

So, your equation for the number of houses built over time is ...
