Answer: a(n) = 5 - 3n
the sequence has:
a1 = 2
a2 = -1
a3 = -7
.........
we can see that: a2 - a1 = a3 - a2 = -3
=> the sequence is a arithmetic sequence
=> the distance between the numbers is d = -3
because this sequence is a arithmetic sequence
=> a(n) = a1 + (n - 1)d = 2 + (n - 1).(-3) = 5 - 3n
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
-12
Step-by-step explanation:
Let b = -1 and a = -3
The average rate of change = 
f(b) = f(-1) = 3(-1)^2 - 5 = 3 - 5 = -2
f(a) = f(-3) = 3(-3)^2 - 5 =27 - 5 = 22
f(b) - f(a) = -2 - 22 = -24
b - a = -1 + 3 = 2
= -24/2 = -12
keeping in mind that perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes, let's check for the slope of the equation above

well then therefore

so we're really looking for the equation of a line with slope of -1/3 and that passes through (1, -3 )
