(₋4)²
how i got it -
1st i used the sum-product pattern
x² - 8x + 16
x² -4-4+16
then, found the common fact from the two pairs
x² - 4 - 4 + 16
(-4) - 4(-4)
rewrite in factored form
(x-4)-4(-4)
(-4) (-4)
combine to a square
(-4) (-4)
Answer: All of the numbers in the sequence are going up twice the amount as before. The next three terms will be 208, 416, 832
Answer is 0.31. Hope this helps.
Answer:
f(x + h) = 3x³ + x² + 9h²x + 3h³ + h² + 9hx² + 2hx
General Formulas and Concepts:
- Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
- Distributive Property
- Expand by FOIL (First Outside Inside Last)
- Combining like terms
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define function</u>
f(x) = x² + 3x³
f(x + h) is x = x + h
<u>Step 2: Simplify</u>
- Substitute: f(x + h) = (x + h)² + 3(x + h)³
- Expand by FOILing: f(x + h) = (x² + 2hx + h²) + 3(x + h)³
- Rewrite: f(x + h) = (x² + 2hx + h²) + 3(x + h)²(x + h)
- Expand by FOILing: f(x + h) = (x²+2hx+h²) + 3(x² + 2hx + h²)(x+h)
- Distribute/Expand: f(x + h) = (x²+2hx+h²) + 3(x³+3hx²+3h²x+h³)
- Distribute 3: f(x + h) = (x²+2hx+h²)+(3x³+9hx²+9h²x+3h³)
- Combine like terms: f(x + h) = 3x³+x²+9h²x+3h³+h²+9hx²+2hx
