Answer:
an = 2 + n
Step-by-step explanation:
The differences between terms are all 1. The first term is 3. The general form of the general term is ...
an = a1 + d(n -1)
Filling in a1 = 3 and d = 1, we have ...
an = 3 + n - 1
an = 2 + n . . . . . . simplify
Answer:
- The arcs on the Golden Gate Bridge.
Explanation:
I think about the Golden Gate Bridge, which is a suspension bridge.
As in any suspension bridge, a long cable is supported by two large supports.
The cable falls from a support, in the form of a curve concave upwards, to a minimum point that is the vertex of the<em> parabola</em>, through which the axis of <em>symmetry</em> passes, and curves again upwards to ascend to the upper end of the other support.
As a <em>unique feature</em> of this parabolic arc you can tell that the the concavity is upward; the parabola open upward.
Also, you can tell that the parabola is vertical, which means that the axis of symmetry is vertical.
The <em>symmetry</em> is clear because to the curve to the left of the vertex is a mirror image of the curve to the right of the vertex.
-4(4x+3) + (7x -2) = (-16x + -12) + (7x + 2) = -16 + -12 + 7x + 2 = -9x -10
The answer is -9x -10
