Answer:
(a) -7 , - 9 , - 11
(b) Arithmetic sequence
(c) There is a common difference of -2
(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.
= a + 4d
= - 1 + 4 ( -2 )
= -1 - 8
= - 9
6th term = a +5d
= -1 + 5(-2)
= -1 - 10
= - 11
= a + 6d
= -1 + 6 (-2)
= -1 - 12
= -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
(c) Because of the existence of common difference
(d)
= a + 26d
= -1 + 26 ( -2 )
= -1 - 52
= - 53
Answer: Variant C
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 3x^2 − 4
For finding f(-2) just replace x with - 2 like this:
f(-2)=3*((-2))^2-4=3*4-4=12-4=8
No, since the slopes are different
for 1 line
y = 4x - 4
slope = 4
for 2 line
4y = 24x - 96
slope = 24/4 = 6
Answer:
(a)
(b)5,832 Mosquitoes
(c)5 days
Step-by-step explanation:
(a)Given an original amount
at t=0. The population of the colony with a growth rate
, where k is a constant is given as:

(b)If
and the population after 1 day, N(1)=1800
Then, from our model:
N(1)=1800

Therefore, our model is:

In 3 days time

The population of mosquitoes in 3 days time will be approximately 5832.
(c)If the population N(t)=20,000,we want to determine how many days it takes to attain that value.
From our model

In approximately 5 days, the population of mosquitoes will be 20,000.
The answer is
