Which expression can be used to find the nth term for the sequence below?

1 answer:

8 0

So the general formula is:

a(n)=1+n^2

Let's check:

a(1)=1+1^2=1+1=2

a(2)=1+2^2=1+4=5

a(3)=1+3^2=1+9=10

a(4)=1+4^2=1+16=17

The next numbers in the sequence should be:

a(5)=1+5^2=1+25=26

a(6)=1+6^2=1+36=37 etc.

Answer:

$x^2-4x+3$

$63\ \text{sq. units}$

Step-by-step explanation:

l = Length = $\dfrac{x^2-x-6}{x-5}$

w = Width = $\dfrac{x^2-6x+5}{x+2}$

Area is given by

$A=lw\\\Rightarrow A=\dfrac{x^2-x-6}{x-5}\times\dfrac{x^2-6x+5}{x+2}\\\Rightarrow A=\dfrac{x^2-3x+2x-6}{x-5}\times\dfrac{x^2-5x-1x+5}{x+2}\\\Rightarrow A=\dfrac{(x-3)(x+2)}{x-5}\times\dfrac{(x-5)(x-1)}{x+2}\\\Rightarrow A=(x-3)(x-1)\\\Rightarrow A=x^2-4x+3$
