In mathematics, the reciprocal, or multiplicative inverse, of a number x is the number which, when multiplied by x, yields 1. It is denoted 1/x or x-1.
So basically an arithmetic sequence has a common difference, a number which is either added or subtracted at a constant rate (only that number). A geometric sequence is the ratio between two numbers, meaning they are either multiplied or divided by the same number. The sequence would be neither if it follows none of these patterns. So by this logic:
14. Arithmetic, 15. Geometric, 16. Neither, 17. Geometric
Answer:
what are solving it with??
Answer: x = - 3.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Rewrite the equation by completing the square.
4x2 + 28x + 49 = 0
Completing the square method :
Divide through by the Coefficient of x^2
x^2 + 7x + (49/4) = 0
a = 1, b = 7, c = 49/4
Move c to the right side of the equation
x^2 + 7x = - 49/4
Complete the square on the left hand side by squaring its half of the x term
(7/2)^2 = (49/4)
Add the output to both sides of the equation
x^2 + 7x + (49/4) = - (49/4) + (49/4)
(x + 7/2)^2 = 0
Square root of both sides
x + 7/2 = 0
x = - 7/2
x = - 3.5
