If you know that
, then you know right away

###
Otherwise, you can derive the same result. Let
, so that
.
is bounded, so we know
. For these values of
, we always have
.
So, recalling the Pythagorean theorem, we find

Then

as expected.
Answer:
y- intercept = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The y- intercept is the point on the y- axis where the graph crosses.
This occurs when the x- coordinate is 0
From the table the point (0, 1 ) is where the graph crosses the y- axis
Then y- intercept = 1
(a ± b)² = a² ± 2ab + b² . . . . . . . (signs match)
The middle term is twice the product of the roots of the other two terms. This tells you the terms of the binomial are the square roots of the end terms.
The sign in the binomial will match the sign of the "2ab" term. The order of terms in the binomial doesn't matter. (a±b)² = (b±a)² when signs match.
The correct answer is 1 7/15.
Answer:
B and C work. A and D do not.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is one of those questions that you have to go through each answer to see what the results are. You don't have to go far to eliminate A and D so let's do that first.
A]
5n + 6
Let n = 1
5(1) + 6
5 + 6= 11
However there is trouble beginning with n = 2
5*2 + 6
10 + 6
16 All you need is one wrong answer and the choice is toast. So A won't work.
================
Try D
6(n - 1)+ 5
n=0
6*(-1) + 5
-6 + 5
- 1
And D has been eliminated with just 1 attempt. n= 2 or n = 1 would be even worse. D is not one of the answers.
=============
B
Let n = 1
6(1) + 5
6 + 5
11 The first term works.
n = 2
6*(2) + 5
12 + 5
17 and n = 2 works as well. Just in case it is hard to believe, let's try n = 3 because so far, everything is fine.
n = 3
6*(3) + 5
18 + 5
23 And this also works. I'll let you deal with n = 4
========
C
n = 0
6(0 + 1) + 5
6*1 + 5
6 + 5
11
n = 1
6(1 + 1) + 5
6*2 + 5
12 + 5
17 which works.
So C is an answer.
