Answer:

f(n)=-5-3n

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the recursive formula of a sequence

f(1)=−8

f(n)=f(n−1)−3

We are to determine an explicit formula for the sequence.

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

=f(1)-3

=-8-3

f(2)=-11

f(3)=f(3-1)-3

=f(2)-3

=-11-3

f(3)=-14

We write the first few terms of the sequence.

-8, -11, -14, ...

This is an arithmetic sequence where the:

First term, a= -8

Common difference, d=-11-(-8)=-11+8

d=-3

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is determined using the formula:

T(n)=a+(n-1)d

Substituting the derived values, we have:

T(n)=-8-3(n-1)

=-8-3n+3

T(n)=-5-3n

Therefore, the explicit formula for f(n) can be written as:

f(n)=-5-3n

Factor the expression using the two different techniques listed for Parts 1(a) and 1(b).
Natalija [7]

Answer:

9a^4 b^10(2 +3a^6 b^5)  (2 -3a^6 b^5)

see work below

Step-by-step explanation:

36a^4b^10 - 81a^16b^20

A)  find the GCF

36a^4b^10 = 4*9 a^4b^10  = 2*2*3*3 a*a*a*a*b*b*b*b*b*b*b*b*b*b

81a^16b^20= 9*9a^16b^20= 3*3*3*3* a*a*a*a*a*a*a*a*a*a*a*a*a*a*a*a                *b*b*b*b*b*b*b*b*b*b*b*b*b*b*b*b*b*b*b*b

The terms that appear in both terms is the GCF.  The terms that remain are inside the parentheses.

The GCF is 3*3 a*a*a*a*b*b*b*b*b*b*b*b*b*b

36a^4b^10 - 81a^16b^20 = 3*3 a*a*a*a*b*b*b*b*b*b*b*b*b*b *

( 2*2 - 3*3a*a*a*a*a*a*a*a*a*a*a*a b*b*b*b*b*b*b*b*b*b)

Combining like terms

36a^4b^10 - 81a^16b^20 = 9a^4b^10(4-9a^12b^10)

The expression inside the parenthesis can be factored using the difference of squares

let x^2 =4   x =2  

y^2 = 9a^12 b^10   y = 3a^6b^5

(x^2 -y^2) = (x+y)(x-y)

9a^4b^10(4-9a^12b^10) = 9a^4b^10 ( 2+3a^6b^5) ( 2-3a^6b^5)

b) difference of squares  a^2 – b^2 = (a + b)(a – b)

let a^2 = 36a^4b^10

so a = 6a^2b^5

b^2 = 81a^16b^20

b = 9a^8 b^10

a^2 – b^2 = (a + b)(a – b)

36a^4b^10 - 81a^16b^20 = (6a^2b^5 +9a^8 b^10) (6a^2b^5 -9a^8 b^10)

We can factor a 3 a^2 b^5 out of the first term

3 a^2 b^5 (2 +3a^6 b^5) (6a^2b^5 -9a^8 b^10)

3 a^2 b^5 (2 +3a^6 b^5) 3 a^2 b^5 (2 -3a^6 b^5)

Multiply the terms outside the parentheses together

9a^4 b^10(2 +3a^6 b^5)  (2 -3a^6 b^5)
