f(n) = f(n+1) +3

f(1) = f(2) +3

f(2) =f(3) +3

f(3) = f(4) +3

So f(1) = f(n) + 3* (n-1)

Put n=4 here so you found

f(1) = f(4) + 3* 3

= 22 +9

Answer:

$\large\boxed{a(x+4)(x-5)=0,\ a\in\mathbb{R}-\{0\}}\\\\\text{for}\ a=1\to\boxed{x^2-x-20=0}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{If}\ x_1\ \text{and}\ x_2\ \text{are the roots of the quadratic equation}\ ax^2+bx+c=0,\\\text{then}\ ax^2+bx+c=a(x-x_1)(x-x_2).\\\\\text{If}\ x_1\ \text{and}\ x_2\ \text{, then they are the roots of the quadratic equation.}\\\\\text{We have}\ x_1=-4\ \text{and}\ x_2=5.\ \text{Therefore we have the equation:}\\\\a(x-(-4))(x-5)=0\\\\a(x+4)(x-5)=0\qquad\text{for any value of}\ a\ \text{except 0}.$

PLEASE HELP ME IM BEGGING YOU IT IS EASY Consider the two groups listed below. Which statement describes the sets? (2 points) ho

miskamm [114]

Note that mailing address is unique, but houses are not, meaning that you can't have house A and house B both referencing the same address.

So, in order to have a valid function, any two points on the function cannot have the same x value that lands on different y.

With this property mentioned, it's clear to see that
(house, address) is NOT a function; however, (address, house) is a function, since same x lands on multiple y values is a valid onto function. (a house that have multiple addresses)
