We find the first differences between terms:
7-4=3; 12-7=5; 19-12=7; 28-19=9.
Since these are different, this is not linear.
We now find the second differences:
5-3=2; 7-5=2; 9-7=2. Then:
Since these are the same, this sequence is quadratic.
We use (1/2a)n², where a is the second difference:
(1/2*2)n²=1n².
We now use the term number of each term for n:
4 is the 1st term; 1*1²=1.
7 is the 2nd term; 1*2²=4.
12 is the 3rd term; 1*3²=9.
19 is the 4th term; 1*4²=16.
28 is the 5th term: 1*5²=25.
Now we find the difference between the actual terms of the sequence and the numbers we just found:
4-1=3; 7-4=3; 12-9=3; 19-16=3; 28-25=3.
Since this is constant, the sequence is in the form (1/2a)n²+d;
in our case, 1n²+d, and since d=3, 1n²+3.
The correct answer is n²+3
I believe it’s letter c if it’s saying 2/4 and reduce down to 1/2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Total cake shared=1/2
Pete share=x
Bill= twice as much as Pete
=2x
Pete's share+ Bill's share=total share
x+2x=1/2
3x=1/2
x=1/2÷3
x=1/2×1/3
=1/6
Pete's share=x=1/6
Bill's share=2x
=2(1/6)
=2/6
=1/3
Answer:
y=-1/2x-1

Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope, or rate of change in any function is the number multiplied by the independent variable (in this case x).
