$\hbox{Domain:}\\
x^2+x-2\geq0 \wedge x^2-4x+3\geq0 \wedge x^2-1\geq0\\
x^2-x+2x-2\geq0 \wedge x^2-x-3x+3\geq0 \wedge x^2\geq1\\
x(x-1)+2(x-1)\geq 0 \wedge x(x-1)-3(x-1)\geq0 \wedge (x\geq 1 \vee x\leq-1)\\
(x+2)(x-1)\geq0 \wedge (x-3)(x-1)\geq0\wedge x\in(-\infty,-1\rangle\cup\langle1,\infty)\\
x\in(-\infty,-2\rangle\cup\langle1,\infty) \wedge x\in(-\infty,1\rangle \cup\langle3,\infty) \wedge x\in(-\infty,-1\rangle\cup\langle1,\infty)\\
x\in(-\infty,-2\rangle\cup\langle3,\infty)$

$
\sqrt{x^2+x-2}+\sqrt{x^2-4x+3}=\sqrt{x^2-1}\\
x^2-1=x^2+x-2+2\sqrt{(x^2+x-2)(x^2-4x+3)}+x^2-4x+3\\
2\sqrt{(x^2+x-2)(x^2-4x+3)}=-x^2+3x-2\\
\sqrt{(x^2+x-2)(x^2-4x+3)}=\dfrac{-x^2+3x-2}{2}\\
(x^2+x-2)(x^2-4x+3)=\left(\dfrac{-x^2+3x-2}{2}\right)^2\\
(x+2)(x-1)(x-3)(x-1)=\left(\dfrac{-x^2+x+2x-2}{2}\right)^2\\
(x+2)(x-3)(x-1)^2=\left(\dfrac{-x(x-1)+2(x-1)}{2}\right)^2\\
(x+2)(x-3)(x-1)^2=\left(\dfrac{-(x-2)(x-1)}{2}\right)^2\\
(x+2)(x-3)(x-1)^2=\dfrac{(x-2)^2(x-1)^2}{4}\\
4(x+2)(x-3)(x-1)^2=(x-2)^2(x-1)^2\\$
$
4(x+2)(x-3)(x-1)^2-(x-2)^2(x-1)^2=0\\
(x-1)^2(4(x+2)(x-3)-(x-2)^2)=0\\
(x-1)^2(4(x^2-3x+2x-6)-(x^2-4x+4))=0\\
(x-1)^2(4x^2-4x-24-x^2+4x-4)=0\\
(x-1)^2(3x^2-28)=0\\
x-1=0 \vee 3x^2-28=0\\
x=1 \vee 3x^2=28\\
x=1 \vee x^2=\dfrac{28}{3}\\
x=1 \vee x=\sqrt{\dfrac{28}{3}} \vee x=-\sqrt{\dfrac{28}{3}}\\$

There's one more condition I forgot about
$-(x-2)(x-1)\geq0\\
x\in\langle1,2\rangle\\$

Finally
$x\in(-\infty,-2\rangle\cup\langle3,\infty) \wedge x\in\langle1,2\rangle \wedge x=\{1,\sqrt{\dfrac{28}{3}}, -\sqrt{\dfrac{28}{3}}\}\\
\boxed{\boxed{x=1}}$

Please help me find the nth term of this sequence 0, 3, 8, 15, 24

Setler [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

0, 3, 8, 15, 24, 35, 48, 63, 80 which is the nth term

first step you have to find how many steps the sequence was going with.

examples= from 0 to 3 the steps were 3

=from 3 to 8 the steps were 5

= from 8 to 15 the steps were 7

you will recognize that the steps the sequence is going with is odd numbers.

so you will use the odd numbers until you find what you need. which leads you to 80 which is the nth number in the sequence.
