10+.04(15)(.5)=10.30. 5+.12(15)(.5)=5.9. 10.3-5.9=4.4 the difference is 4.40 :)
Answer:
a) b = 8, c = 13
b) The equation of graph B is y = -x² + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
* Let us talk about the transformation
- If the function f(x) reflected across the x-axis, then the new function g(x) = - f(x)
- If the function f(x) reflected across the y-axis, then the new function g(x) = f(-x)
- If the function f(x) translated horizontally to the right by h units, then the new function g(x) = f(x - h)
- If the function f(x) translated horizontally to the left by h units, then the new function g(x) = f(x + h)
In the given question
∵ y = x² - 3
∵ The graph is translated 4 units to the left
→ That means substitute x by x + 4 as 4th rule above
∴ y = (x + 4)² - 3
→ Solve the bracket to put it in the form of y = ax² + bx + c
∵ (x + 4)² = (x + 4)(x + 4) = (x)(x) + (x)(4) + (4)(x) + (4)(4)
∴ (x + 4)² = x² + 4x + 4x + 16
→ Add the like terms
∴ (x + 4)² = x² + 8x + 16
→ Substitute it in the y above
∴ y = x² + 8x + 16 - 3
→ Add the like terms
∴ y = x² + 8x + 13
∴ b = 8 and c = 13
a) b = 8, c = 13
∵ The graph A is reflected in the x-axis
→ That means y will change to -y as 1st rule above
∴ -y = (x² - 3)
→ Multiply both sides by -1 to make y positive
∴ y = -(x² - 3)
→ Multiply the bracket by the negative sign
∴ y = -x² + 3
b) The equation of graph B is y = -x² + 3
Answer: -14
Step-by-step explanation: 3-17= -14
17+(-14)=3
Answer:
You gave the explicit form.
Step-by-step explanation:
You gave the explicit form.
The recursive form is giving you a term in terms of previous terms of the sequence.
So the recursive form of a geometric sequence is 
and they also give a term of the sequence; like first term is such and such number. All this says is to get a term in the sequence you just multiply previous term by the common ratio.
r is the common ratio and can found by choosing a term and dividing by the term that is right before it.
So here r=-3 since all of these say that it does:
-54/18
18/-6
-6/2
If these quotients didn't match, then it wouldn't be geometric.
Anyways the recursive form for this geometric sequence is
