The answer is choice C
------------------------------------------------
You start off with the first term being a1 = 3
Then you add on 3 to get to 6 as the second term
The next thing to do is add on -3, which is the same as subtracting 3, to get back to 3 once more.
This pattern continues on forever. To ensure you add on either +3 or -3 to the previous term, we add on the general term 3*(-1)^n
Overall, the nth term is found by a(n) = a(n-1) + 3*(-1)^n, which is what choice C shows. I'm assuming your teacher meant to write 3(-1)^n instead of 3(-1)n
Answer:
B.
Step-by-step explanation:
Irrational means it can't be written as a fraction.
Yes, 23 has an inverse mod 1000 because gcd(23, 1000) = 1 (i.e. they are coprime).
Let <em>x</em> be the inverse. Then <em>x</em> is such that
23<em>x</em> ≡ 1 (mod 1000)
Use the Euclidean algorithm to solve for <em>x</em> :
1000 = 43×23 + 11
23 = 2×11 + 1
→ 1 ≡ 23 - 2×11 (mod 1000)
→ 1 ≡ 23 - 2×(1000 - 43×23) (mod 1000)
→ 1 ≡ 23 - 2×1000 + 86×23 (mod 1000)
→ 1 ≡ 87×23 - 2×1000 ≡ 87×23 (mod 1000)
→ 23⁻¹ ≡ 87 (mod 1000)
Answer:
The other factor of the polynomial is (5x -6)
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to find the other factor of this binomial expression
To find the other factor, we simply proceed to divide the polynomial by the binomial
That would be;
(10x^2 + 18x - 36)/(2x + 6)
= 5x - 6
