I would like help on this problem if anyone doesn't mind -(-4)+8

2 answers:

8 0

- (- 4) + 8 is the same as doing - 1(- 4) + 8 or - 1 x (- 4) + 8

Any negative times a negative becomes a positive so we just do 1 x 4 = 4.

4 + 8 = 12.

Your answer is 12.

Equation turns to +4+8 because of the distribution property and 4+8=12

Find the generating function for the sequence 1,-2,4,-8, 16, ...

kirill [66]

Answer:

$a(x)=\dfrac{1}{1+2x}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The generating function a(x) produces a power series ...

$a(x)=a_0+a_1x+a_2x^2+a_3x^3+\dots$

where the coefficients are the elements of the given sequence.

We observe that the given sequence has the recurrence relation ...

$a_0=1;a_n=-2a_{n-1} \quad\text{for n $>$ 0}$

This can be rearranged to ...

$a_n+2a_{n-1}=0$

We can formulate this in terms of a(x) as follows, then solve for a(x).

$\sum\limits^{\infty}_{n=1} {a_{n}x^n} =a(x)-a_0 \quad\text{and}\\\\\sum\limits^{\infty}_{n=1} {2a_{n-1}x^n} =(2x)a(x) \quad\text{so}\\\\\sum\limits^{\infty}_{n=1} {(a_n+2a_{n-1})x^n}=0=a(x)-a_0+2xa(x)\\\\a(x)=\dfrac{a_0}{1+2x}=\dfrac{1}{1+2x}$

The generating function is ...

a(x) = 1/(1+2x)

Use the figure below to answer the questions.

Pavlova-9 [17]

The transformation is a reflection in the line $y=x$ followed by a reflection in the line $x=1$ .

The mapping for a reflection in the line $y=x$ is $(x,y) \rightarrow (y,x)$ .

That is simply swapping the coordinates.

$A(-3,4) \rightarrow (4,-3)$

$B(-3,0) \rightarrow (0,3)$

$C(-1,3) \rightarrow (3,-1)$

Now we reflect the resulting coordinates in the line $x=1$ which has the mapping $(x,y) \rightarrow (2(1)-x,y)$

So we transform the resulting coordinates as follows:

$(4,-3) \rightarrow A'(2(1)-4,-3)$

$(0,-3) \rightarrow B'(2(1)-0,-3)$

$(3,-1) \rightarrow C'(2(1)-3,-1)$

Hence we have

$A'(-2,-3),B'(2,-3) \: and\: C'(-1,-1)$
