Step-by-step explanation:

The above sequence is a geometric sequence

For an nth term in a geometric sequence

$a(n) = a ({r})^{n - 1}$

where

n is the number of terms

a is the first term

r is the common ratio

From the question

a = 5

r = 10/5 = 2

Therefore the explicit formula for this sequence is

$a(n) = 5( {2})^{n - 1}$

Hope this helps you

Answer:

3.9 units

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that,

Time taken by each swing = 2.2 seconds

The pendulum formula is given by, $T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{32}}$ , where T is the time taken and L is the length of the swing.

So, we have,

$2.2= 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{32}}$

i.e. $\frac{2.2}{2\pi}=\sqrt{\frac{L}{32}}$

i.e. $(\frac{2.2}{2\pi})^{2}=\frac{L}{32}$

i.e. $L=32\times (\frac{2.2}{2\pi})^{2}$

i.e. $L=32\times \frac{4.84}{4 \pi^2}$

i.e. $L=32\times \frac{1.21}{\pi^2}$

i.e. $L=\frac{38.72}{9.87}$

i.e. L = 3.923 units

So, rounded to tenths, the length of the swing is 3.9 units.

$\leadsto f( \rm x) = - (x - 3)(x - 5)$

$\\ \\$

$\leadsto f( \rm x) = - ( {x}^{2} - 5x - 3x + 15) \\$

$\\ \\$

$\leadsto f( \rm x) = - ( {x}^{2} - 8x + 15) \\$

$\\ \\$

$\leadsto f( \rm x) = - {x}^{2} + 8x - 15 \\$
