Answer:
f(0) = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) indicates the "output" value present at the "input" (Output referring to the y value and input referring to the x value). So f(0) would mean the "y" value present at x = 0; however, there are two circles at x = 0. One of the dots is open(hollow) meaning that the "x" and "y" values present there are excluded. This leaves the closed(filled) dot which means that value is included and is the answer.
Answer:
B.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: a. 30x^2 − 26x − 12
First write the equation in a form to better help visualize.
(5x - 6)(6x + 2)
Then use distributive property on the second binomial from the first binomial. <em>You multiply 5x by 6x and 2, then multiply -6 by 6x and 2.</em>
5x * 6x = 30x^2 (The answer is raised to the power of 2 because you're adding the invisible exponents, aka exponents of 1)
Then multiply 5x by 2
5x * 2 = 10x
Then you repeat the process but with -6 instead of 5x.
-6 * 6x = -36x (It is not raised to a power of 2 because -6 does not have a variable to include the invisible exponent)
-6 * 2 = -12
Now take all of your answers and put them into 1 equation by the order you did them.
30x^2 + 10x - 36x -12
But wait! The answer can still be simplified. All you have to do is combine like terms. <em>However 30x^2 can't be combined with 10x because 10x isn't raised to the second power, terms can only be combined if they have the same variable and exponent.</em>
30x^2 + (10x - 36x) - 12
30x^2 - 26x - 12
Certain sequences (not all) can be defined (expressed) in a "recursive" form. <span>
In a <span>recursive formula, </span>each term is defined as a function of its preceding term(s). <span>
[Each term is found by doing something to the term(s) immediately in front of that term.] </span></span>
A recursive formula designates the starting term,<span><span> a</span>1</span>, and the nth term of the sequence, <span>an</span> , as an expression containing the previous term (the term before it), <span>an-1</span>.
<span><span>The process of </span>recursion<span> can be thought of as climbing a ladder.
To get to the third rung, you must step on the second rung. Each rung on the ladder depends upon stepping on the rung below it.</span><span>You start on the first rung of the ladder. </span><span>a1</span>
<span>From the first rung, you move to the second rung. </span><span>a<span>2
</span> a2</span> = <span>a1 + "step up"
</span><span>From the second rung, you move to the third rung. </span><span>a3</span>
<span> a3 = a2 + "step up"</span>
<span><span>If you are on the<span> n</span>th rung, you must have stepped on the n-1st rung.</span> <span>an = a<span>n-1</span> + "step up"</span></span></span><span><span>Notation:<span> Recursive forms work with the term(s) immediately in front of the term being examined. The table at the right shows that there are many options as to how this relationship may be expressed in </span>notations.<span>A recursive formula is written with two parts: a statement of the </span>first term<span> along with a statement of the </span>formula relating successive terms.The statements below are all naming the same sequence:</span><span><span>Given TermTerm in front
