This pattern appears to alternate between doubling and subtracting by 1. 

To get from 3 to 6, we multiply by two.
To get from 6 to 5, we subtract one.
To get from 5 to 10, we multiply by two.
To get from 10 to 9, we subtract one.
To get from 9 to 18, we multiply by two.
To get from 18 to 17, we subtract one.

Therefore, next we need to multiply by two.
17 x 2 = 34
So, the next number is 34.

To find the number after, we subtract one.
34 - 1 = 33
Thus, the number after is 33.

In conclusion, the next two numbers are 34 and 33.

34 and 33 because the pattern goes # x 2 then - 1

NEED HELP ASAP!! I have no idea how to complete the problem I just get that the answer is no solution
True [87]
Well since we can use a base of 1 we know that 1 - 45 is less than 4 but -1 + 45 is not, which follows the assumption that x>0, but now we need to know what x is less than to fit the inequality. If we use 5 as a trial we can see that 5 - 9 = -4 so 0<x<5 is your answer. Hope this helps I basically used trial and error. If you want to check try 3 or 4 for x and it will work but 6 will not.

How do I solve this?
Minchanka [31]

The maximum happens at x = -b/2a

x = -48/2(-16) = 3/2

Now replace x in the equation and solve for y:

y = 48(3/2) - 16(3/2)^2

y =  -72 - 36

y = 36

The maximum height is 36 feet.

Stella [2.4K]
I am not sure about this one, but I’m pretty sure function 1 as 24 divided by 2 is 2, which makes (2,0) and function 1 has (0,2). The higher the line, the greater it is.
