F(1) = 42
f(n) = f(n-1) - 5
f(2) = f(1) - 5
f(2) = 42-5
f(2) = 37
a1 = 42
a2 = 37
r = 5
PA: (42, 37, 32, 27, 22, 17, 12, 7)
Answer:
y= -2x/3+8
Step-by-step explanation:
find 2 points: (0,8) and (6,4)
substitute in y=ax+b
8=0a+b
b=8
4=6a+b
4=6a+8
6a=-4
a=-2/3
Answer:
look at the explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
in order to create a f(-2) you would need to know either a table of values or an equation to plug values into . . .saying a function of -2 does not really help, sorry
Answer:
Try solving 6(n-5)-2.
Step-by-step explanation:
I believe this can be set up as 6(n-5)-2. The difference of a number and five can be represented by n-5. If this needs to be multiplied by 6 (hence 6 times), it would become 6(n-5). Two less than that is represented by -2. Thus, two less than six times the difference of a number and five is 6(n-5) -2, which, when n=9 is plugged in, looks like 6(9-5) -2. Follow PEMDAS from there.
