Answer:

The first five terms of the given sequence is 1, 0, -3, -8, -15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: nth term of sequence a_n=-n^2+2n

We have to find the first five terms of the given sequence,

Consider the given nth term of sequence a_n=n^2+2n

Substitute n = 1 ,

we get, a_1=-(1)^2+2=-1+2=1

Substitute n = 2 ,

we get,  a_2=-(2)^2+2(2)=-4+4=0

Substitute n = 3,

we get, a_3=-(3)^2+2(3)=-9+6=-3

Substitute n = 4 ,

we get  a_4=-(4)^2+2(4)=-16+8=-8

Substitute n = 5 ,

we get  a_5=-(5)^2+2(5)=-25+10=-15

Thus, first five terms of the given sequence is 1, 0, -3, -8, -15

If your sequence is this

an =   - {n}^{2}  + 2n \\ then \\ a1 =  - 1 + 2 = 1 \\ a2 =  - 4 + 4 = 0 \\ a3 =  - 9 + 6 =  - 3 \\ a4 =  - 16 + 8 =  - 8 \\ a5 =  - 25 + 10 =  - 15

Find an identity for cos(4t) in terms of cos(t)
mestny [16]
So you can do this multiple ways, I'll do this the way that I think makes sense the l most easily.

Cos (0) = 1
Cos (pi/2)=0
Cos (pi) =-1
Cos (3pi/2)=0
Cos (2pi)=1

Now if you multiply the inside by 4, the graph oscillates more violently (goes up and down more in a shorter period).
But you can always reduce it.
Cos (0)= 1
Cos (4pi/2) = cos (2pi)=1
Cos (4pi) =Cos (2pi) =1 (Any multiple of 2pi ==1)
etc...
the pattern is that every half pi increase is now a full period as apposed to just a quarter of one. That's in theory.

Now that you know that, the identities of Cosine are another beast, but mathematically.
You have.

Cos (2×2t) = Cos^2 (2t)-Sin^2 (2t)
Sin^2 (t)=-Cos^2 (t)+1..... (all A^2+B^2=C^2)
Cos (2×2t) = Cos^2 (t)-(-Cos^2 (t)+1)
Cos (2×2t)= 2Cos^2 (2t) - 1

2Cos^2 (2t) -1= 2 (Cos^2(t)-Sin^2(t))^2 -1
(same thing as above but done twice because it's cos ^2 now)
convert sin^2
2Cos^2 (2t)-1 =2 (Cos^2 (t)+Cos^2 (t)-1)^2 -1
2 (2Cos^2(t)-1)^2 -1
2 (2Cos^2 (t)-1)(2Cos^2 (t)-1)-1
2 (4Cos^4 (t) - 2 (2Cos^2 (t))+1)-1
Distribute

8Cos^4 (t) -8Cos^2 (t) +1

Cos (4t) =8Cos^4-8Cos^2 (t)+-1

6*10 =$60 for sugar sticks
14*8=$112 for jelly beans

Thus, $60 + $112 = $172 for overall candy mixture.
