Answer: 1) 2, 3, 4, 9, 32, 279, 8896, 2481705, 22077238784

              2) 2,490,924

              3) Neither

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

S_n=S_{n-2}\cdot (S_{n-1}-1)\quad \\\\S_1=2\quad given\\S_2=3\quad given\\S_3=S_1(S_2-1)\quad =2(3-1)\quad =4\\S_4=S_2(S_3-1)\quad =3(4-1)\quad =9\\S_5=S_3(S_4-1)\quad =4(9-1)\quad =32\\S_6=S_4(S_5-1)\quad =9(32-1)\quad =279\\S_7=S_5(S_6-1)\quad =32(279-1)\quad =8,896\\S_8=S_6(S_7-1)\quad =279(8896-1)\quad =2,481,705\\S_9=S_7(S_8-1)\quad =8896(2481705-1)\quad =22,077,238,784

\sum^8_{k=1}S_k\\\\=S_1+S_2+S_3+S_4+S_5+S_6+S_7+S_8\\\\= 2,490,924\\

Neither

Not arithmetic because the difference between each of the terms is not the same.            

                        S₂ - S₁          S₃ - S₂           S₄ - S₃      

                      3 - 2 = 1       4 - 3 = 1          9 - 4 = 5

Not geometric because the ratios between each of the terms is not the same.                

                       \dfrac{S_2}{S_1}=\dfrac{S_3}{S_2}\qquad \rightarrow \dfrac{3}{2}=\dfrac{4}{3}\qquad \rightarrow \text{cross multiply to get}: 9\neq 8

NeX [460]

Answer:

$70,201.38

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the principal amount, we can use the formula:

P=\dfrac{A}{(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}}

A = $200,000

r = 7% or 0.07

t = 15 years

n = 12

Now let's substitute our values.

P=\dfrac{200,000}{(1+\frac{0.07}{12})^{12(15)}}

P=\dfrac{200,000}{(1.00583333333)^{12(15)}}

P=70,201.38

So the principal needed to get 200,000 in 15 years is $70,201.38.

For the years between 1980 and 2012, the function c(x)=0.006x^3−0.48x^2+12.8x+85 approximates the number of countries that atten
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

  199

Step-by-step explanation:

2004 is 24 years after 1980. The polynomial remainder theorem tells you the remainder from division by x-24 will be the function value c(24). We can find the remainder/function value by evaluating the function rewritten to Horner form:

  c(x) = ((0.006x -0.48)x +12.8)x +85

  c(24) = ((0.006(24) -0.48)(24) +12.8)(24) +85 = (-.336(24) +12.8)(24) +85

  = 4.736(24) +85 = 198.664

  c(24) ≈ 199

The approximate number of countries attending the 2004 Olympics was 199.
