1. Given the below sequence: -1, -3, -5, -7, . . . (a) What are the next 3 terms? (b) Is this an arithmetic or geometric sequenc

valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

(a) -7 , - 9 , - 11

(b) Arithmetic sequence

(d) -53

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) To find the next three terms , we must firs check if it is arithmetic sequence or a geometric sequence . For it to be an arithmetic sequence , there must be a common difference :

check :

-3 - (-1) = -5 - (-3) = -7 - (-5) = -2

This means that there is a common difference of -2 , which means it is an arithmetic sequence.

The next 3 terms we are to find are: 5th term , 6th term and 7th term.

$t_{5}$ = a + 4d

$t_{5}$ = - 1 + 4 ( -2 )

$t_{5}$ = -1 - 8

$t_{5}$ = - 9

6th term = a +5d

$t_{6}$ = -1 + 5(-2)

$t_{6}$ = -1 - 10

$t_{6}$ = - 11

$t_{7}$ = a + 6d

$t_{7}$ = -1 + 6 (-2)

$t_{7}$ = -1 - 12

$t_{7}$ = -13

Therefore : the next 3 terms are : -9 , -11 , - 13

(b) it is an arithmetic sequence because there is a common difference which is -2

(d) $t_{27}$ = a + 26d

$t_{27}$ = -1 + 26 ( -2 )

$t_{27}$ = -1 - 52

$t_{27}$ = - 53

Given a function <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=f%28x%29%3D3x%5E4-5x%5E2%2B2x-3" id="TexFormula1" title="f(x)=3x^4-5x^2+2x-3"

Levart [38]

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{f(-1) = -7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve for this function, we need to substitute in our value of x inside to find f(x). Since we are trying to evalue f(-1), we will substitute -1 in as x to our equation.

$f(-1) = 3(-1)^4 - 5(-1)^2 + 2(-1) - 3$

Now we can solve for the function by multiplying/subtracting/adding our known values.

Starting with the first term to the last term:

$3(-1)^4 = 3$

WAIT! How is this possible? $-1^4 = -1$ (according to my calculator), and $3 \cdot -1 = -3$ , not 3!

It's important to note that taking a power of a negative number and multiplying a negative number are two different things. Let's use $-2^2$ as an example.

What your calculator did was follow BEMDAS since it wasn't explicitly told not to.

BEMDAS:

- Brackets

- Exponents

- Multiplication/Division

- Addition/Subtraction

Examining the equation, your calculator used this rule properly. Note that exponents come over multiplication.

So rather than being "-2 squared" - it's "the negative of of 2 squared."

Tying this back into our problem, the squared method would only be true if it looks like $-1^4$ . However, since we're substituting in -1, it looks like $(-1)^4$ , so the expression reads out as "-1 to the fourth."
