Answer:

an = 8 - 2*(n - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

a1 ; .... ; an-1 ; an

r = an - an-1

r = (an-1 - 2) - an-1

r = an-1 - 2 - an-1

r = -2

So:

an = a1 + r*(n - 1)

an = 8 + (-2)*(n - 1)

an = 8 - 2*(n - 1)

v(t) = 2(t² - 6t - 7) = 2(t - 7)(t + 1)

x = -b/2a = 6/2 = 3

y = 2(3)² - 12(3) - 14 = -32
