Make a conjecture about the next item in the sequence 1, -4, 9, -16

To get -4 from 1, we must either subtract 5 from 1 or mult. 1 by -4.  Unfortunately subtracting 5 from -4 does not result in 9, and mult -4 by -4 does not result in -16.  So neither "works"  in predicting the next term.

Can you think of any other experiments to do that would help you discover the pattern 1, -4, 9, -16?

The  absolute values of each term are a  sequence of  perfect squares  and the sign alternates  so the next term would be 5^2 = 25 answer.

Is the equation below a function? explain<br>d) y2 = x2 + 5​
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

y^2 = x^2 + 5​

Rewriting

y^2 - x^2 = 5

This is a hyperbola

We can use the vertical line test to show that it is not a function since a vertical line passes through more than one point.

What is the solution of 4x = 32 - x2?
nydimaria [60]
4x = 32 - 2x
Add -2x (or subtract 2x) from each side
2x = 32
Divide both sides by 2
x = 16
