Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The given sequence of numbers is increasing in geometric progression. The consecutive terms differ by a common ratio, r

Common ratio = 6/3 = 12/6 = 2

The formula for determining the nth term of a geometric progression is expressed as

Tn = ar^(n - 1)

Where

a represents the first term of the sequence.

r represents the common ratio.

n represents the number of terms.

From the information given,

a = 3

r = 2

The function, f(n), representing the nth term of the sequence is

f(n) = 3 × 2^(n - 1)

Indicate a general rule for the n th term of this sequence. 6a, 3a, 0, -3a, -6a, . . .

GrogVix [38]

Hello :
(-6a)-(-3a) =(-3a)-(0) = (0)-(3a) = (3a)-(6a) = -3a (arthmetic<span> sequence, the common - diff is : d= -3a the first term is : U1 = 6a
</span><span>a general rule for the n th term is : Un =U1+(n-1)d
Un = 6a +(n-1)(-3a) =
Un = 6a -3an+3a

Which of the following is the graph of y = 4x + 3?

Neporo4naja [7]

The graph shown is not the correct graph. The graph of y =4x + 3 will have a y-intercept of 3, meaning it will pass through the point (0, 3). It will also have a slope of 4, so the graph will be a line pointing upward rather steeply.
It will pass through the following points:
(-2, -5) ,(-1,-1), (1, 7), (2, 11), (3, 15).
