Answer:

an = 3(5)^(n-1).

Step-by-step explanation:

15 / 3 = 5

75/15 = 5

375/75 = 5

So the common ratio is 5.

First term a1 =3

an = a1 r^(n-1) is the explicit formula.

so here we have:

an = 3(5)^(n-1).

If f(x) = x^2 is a function of variable x. The function is translated 5 units to the left and is reflected across the x-axis. Wh

Rina8888 [55]

It would be -f (x^2 – 5) because being that it reflected across x-axis its turn into a negative and translated 5 units to the left thats a horizontal change so it is on the inside, H (IN) horizontal change goes inside the parentheses, V OUT vertical changes go outside the parentheses
