Answer:
The explicit formula for the given expression is .
Step-by-step explanation:
The given sequence is
-7, -4, -1, 2, 5
The difference between two consecutive terms is same, therefore the given sequence is an arithmetic sequence.
The first term of the given AP is -7 and the common difference is
The explicit formula for an AP is
Where, a is first term, d is common difference and n is number of terms.
Substitute a=-7 and d=3 in the above equation.
Therefore the explicit formula for the given expression is .
The vertex-form equation is
y = a(x+1)² -16
Putting in the y-intercept values, we have
-15 = a(0+1)² -16
1 = a . . . . . . . . . . . add 16
Then the x-intercepts can be found where y=0.
0 = (x+1)² -16
16 = (x+1)²
±4 = x+1
x = -1 ± 4 = {-5, 3}
y = a(x+1)² -16
Putting in the y-intercept values, we have
-15 = a(0+1)² -16
1 = a . . . . . . . . . . . add 16
Then the x-intercepts can be found where y=0.
0 = (x+1)² -16
16 = (x+1)²
±4 = x+1
x = -1 ± 4 = {-5, 3}
