Answer:
Ooh man, this was back in geometry I think, I think the answer is 4 if my calculations are correct.
i think the bigger side is twice the size of the smaller side, so 2 times 8 is 16,
16 = 5x - 4
x = 4
You would subtract the atomic number from the mass weight. <span />
Given:
The sequence formula;
Tn = 4.5n - 8 (Where n = term number)
Required:
15th term = ?
Procedure:
All you need to do is use n = 15
T15 = 4.5(15) - 8
T15 = 59.5
Conclusion:
The 15th term of the sequence is 59.5.
Convert to vertex form:-
y = 5(x^2 - 2x) + 1
y = 5[(x - 1)^2 - 1] + 1
y = 5(x - 1)^2 - 4
vertex is (1, -4)
