Compute successive differences of the terms.
If they are all the same, the sequence is arithmetic and the common difference is the difference you have found.
If successive pairs of differences have the same ratio, the sequence is geometric and the common ratio is the ratio you have determined.
Example of arithmetic sequence:
1, 3, 5, 7
Successive differences are 3-1 = 2, 5-3 = 2, 7-5 = 2. All the differences are 2, which is the common difference of the sequence.
Example of geometric sequence:
1, -3, 9, -27
Successive differences are -3-1 = -4, 9-(-3) = 12, -27-9 = -36. These are not the same, so the sequence is not arithmetic. Ratios of successive pairs of differences are 12/-4 = -3, -36/12 = -3. These are the same, so the sequence is geometric with common ratio -3.
This would be A True, hope this helps !

The cross product of the normal vectors of two planes result in a vector parallel to the line of intersection of the two planes.
Corresponding normal vectors of the planes are
<5,-1,-6> and <1,1,1>
We calculate the cross product as a determinant of (i,j,k) and the normal products
i j k
5 -1 -6
1 1 1
=(-1*1-(-6)*1)i -(5*1-(-6)1)j+(5*1-(-1*1))k
=5i-11j+6k
=<5,-11,6>
Check orthogonality with normal vectors using scalar products
(should equal zero if orthogonal)
<5,-11,6>.<5,-1,-6>=25+11-36=0
<5,-11,6>.<1,1,1>=5-11+6=0
Therefore <5,-11,6> is a vector parallel to the line of intersection of the two given planes.
F(x)=x^2+x+5
then
F(3) would be the function evaluated at x=3, or 17.
anytime you see F(3) it is just whatever formula you are looking at evaluated when the variable is equal to 3.
