ANSWER

C) 1, 3, 6, 10, 15, 21, 28, 36, 45

EXPLANATION

The recursive formula is,

t_1=1,t_n=t_{n-1}+n

when n is a natural number greater than 1.

When n=2,

t_2=t_{2-1}+2

t_2=t_{1}+2 = 1 + 2 = 3

when n=3,

t_3=t_{2}+2 = 3 + 3= 6

when t=4,

t_4=t_{3}+2 = 6+ 4= 10

When t=5,

t_5=t_{4}+5 = 10 + 5 = 15

when t=6,.

t_6=t_{5}+6 = 15 + 6 = 21

when t=7

t_7=t_{6}+7 = 21 + 7 = 28

When t=8,

t_8=t_{7}+8 = 28 + 8 = 36

When t=9,

t_9=t_{8}+9 = 36 + 9 = 45

Hence the first nine triangular number are

C) 1, 3, 6, 10, 15, 21, 28, 36, 45

Answer:

This has one real solution, x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

8 - 4x = 0

Add 4x to each side

8 - 4x+4x = 0+4x

8 =4x

Divide each side by 4
