Answer:

-5

Step-by-step explanation:

f(2) = 2 * f(2-1) + 1

f(2) = 2 * f(1) + 1

f(2) = 2(-3) + 1

f(2) = (-6) + 1

f(2) = -5

The length of a rectangle is (x + 1) cm and its width is 5cm less than its length.

NeX [460]

Answer:

a) the area of a square is in terms of x is

$(x+1)^2$ centimeter square

b)The length of the rectangle is l = (x+1)

l = 7+1 =8 cm

The width of the rectangle is w = [(x+1)-5]

w = (7+1)-5 =3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

a) the area of a square is in terms of x is

area of square is $l^{2} = (x+1)(x+1)$

= $(x+1)^2$

b) Given length is l = (x+1) cm and

the width is 5 cm less than its length.

so we have take width is w = (x+1)-5 cm

Given area of triangle is 24 cm

Area of rectangle = length X width

24 = (x+1)(x+1 -5 )

now simplification $24 = (x+1)^2 - 5 (x+1)$

apply (a+b)^2 = a^2+2 a b+b^2

$x^2+2 x+1-5 x-5 =24$

$x^2 -3 x -4-24=0$

$x^{2} -3 x -28 =0$

now find factors of 28 = 7 X 4 is

$x^{2} -7 x+4 x-28=0$

$x(x-7)+4(x-7)=0$

$(x+4)(x-7)=0$

x = -4 and x=7

there fore you have to choose x = 7

The length of the rectangle is l = (x+1)

l = 7+1 =8

The width of the rectangle is w = [(x+1)-5]

w = (7+1)-5 = 3

<u>Verification:-</u>

Given area of rectangle = 24 = 8 X 3

24 =24

so we can not choose x=-4

we have to choose x =7 only

What is the equation, in standard form, of a parabola that models the values in the table?

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

b. 4x^2 + 3x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The values of f(x) for the extremes of x are more positive than the value of f(x) for the middle x, so we know the parabola opens upward. That eliminates choice D.

It is probably easiest to evaluate the other expressions to see which one matches the given f(x) values. For the purpose, it is usually easier to use the Horner form of the equation.

a. f(-2) = (3(-2) +4)(-2) -6 = -2(-2) -6 = -2 ≠ 4

b. f(-2) = (4(-2) +3)(-2) -6 = -5(-2) -6 = 4 . . . . matches the given data point

c. Because (b) matches, we know this one will not.

The appropriate choice is B.
