The arithmetic sequence with the given condition is determined recursively by

\begin{cases}a_1=5\\a_n=a_{n-1}+3&\text{for }n>1\end{cases}

So we have

a_2=a_1+3

a_3=a_2+3=a_1+3(2)

a_4=a_3+3=a_1+3(3)

and so on with the general pattern

a_n=a_1+3(n-1)

This means the 72nd term in the sequence is

a_{72}=a_1+3(72-1)=5+3(71)=218

so the answer is B.

What is the equation of this graphed line?
cestrela7 [59]
First we find the slope by using the slope formula : (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
(0,7)....x1 = 0 and y1 = 7
(8,-2)...x2 = 8 and y2 = -2
now sub...pay attention to ur signs
slope = (-2 - 7) / (8 - 0) = -9/8

now we use y = mx + b
slope(m) = -9/8
u can use either of ur points...(0,7)...x = 0 and y = 7
now sub into ur formula and find b, the y int
7 = -9/8(0) + b
7 = b
so ur equation is : y = -9/8x + 7 <==

Identify the restrictions on the domain of f(x) = quantity x plus 5 over quantity x minus 2. x ≠ 5 x ≠ −5 x ≠ 2 x ≠ −2
horsena [70]

Answer: Third option.

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, Rational Functions have the following form:

f(x)=\frac{P(x)}{Q(x)}

Where P(x) and Q(x) are polynomials.

The Restrictions of the Domain of Rational Functions are those Real numbers that make the denominator equal to zero, because the division by zero is not defined.

 In this case, you have the following Rational Function:

f(x)=\frac{x+5}{x-2}

The Restrictions of the Domain can be found applying this steps:

- Make the denominator equal to 0:

x-2=0

- Solve for "x":

x=2

Then, the Domain of this function includes all "x" not equal to 2.

Therefore,  the answer is:

x\neq 2
