dmitriy555 [2]3 years ago

Answer:

155

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the recursive formula and a₁ = 1, then

a₂ = 3a₁ + 2 = 3(1) + 2 = 3 + 2 = 5

a₃ = 3a₂ + 2 = 3(5) + 2 = 15 + 2 = 17

a₄ = 3a₃ + 2 = 3(17) + 2 = 51 + 2 = 53

a₅ = 3a₄ + 2 = 3(51) + 2 = 153 + 2 = 155

Thus the 5 th term is 155

Which function has an inverse that is also a function? {(–4, 3), (–2, 7), (–1, 0), (4, –3), (11, –7)} {(–4, 6), (–2, 2), (–1, 6)
9966 [12]

Answer:

  • 1. {(–4, 3), (–2, 7), (–1, 0), (4, –3), (11, –7)}

Step-by-step explanation:

  • <em>Info to consider:</em>
  • <em>Inverse of a function: (x, y) → (y, x)</em>
  • <em>Definition of a function: Every input will have exactly one output. </em>

<u>Let's analyze the functions:</u>

1. {(–4, 3), (–2, 7), (–1, 0), (4, –3), (11, –7)}

  • It has unique y- values, its inverse won't have repeat x-values, so the inverse is also a function

2. {(–4, 6), (–2, 2), (–1, 6), (4, 2), (11, 2)}

  • It has repeat y values of 6 and 2. Its inverse it is going to cause repeat input numbers with different output. This won't be a function

3. {(–4, 5), (–2, 9), (–1, 8), (4, 8), (11, 4)}

  • It has repeat y values of 8. Its inverse it is going to cause repeat input numbers with different output. This won't be a function

4. {(–4, 4), (–2, –1), (–1, 0), (4, 1), (11, 1)}

  • It has repeat y values of 1. Its inverse it is going to cause repeat input numbers with different output. This won't be a function

So the first set of data is the only correct one

In Exercises use synthetic division to perform the indicated division. Write the polynomial in the form
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

p(x) = (x - 5)(x + 5) + 20

Step-by-step explanation:

(x² - 5) ÷ (x - 5) ⇒ we put zero in place of x in the dividend

(x² + 0 - 5) ÷ (x - 5) = x + (5x - 5) ÷ (x - 5)

= (x + 5) + 20 ÷ (x - 5)

The quotient = (x + 5) ⇒ q(x)

The remainder = 20 ⇒ r(x)

The divisor = (x - 5) ⇒ d(x)

∴ p(x) = (x - 5)(x + 5) + 20
