Answer:
1) xₙ = n² - (n - 1)
2) 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
1) 1 = 1² - (1-1)
3 = 2² - (2-1)
7 = 3² - (3-1)
13 = 4² - (4-1)
...........
xₙ = n² - (n - 1)
2) three consecutive terms of an exponential sequence: x, rx , r²x
x: 2nd term of linear sequence
rx: 6th term of linear sequence rx = x + 4d
r²x: 7th term of linear sequence r²x = rx + d d = r²x - rx
rx = x + 4 * (r²x - rx) = x + 4r²x - 4rx
4xr² -5rx + x = 0
x(4r² -5r + 1) = 0
x (4r - 1) ( r - 1) = 0
x = 0 or r = 1/4 or r = 1
if either x = 0 or r = 1 d will be equals to "0" everything became 0
So the only reasonable answer is r = 1/4
Although the question is incomplete, I have seen it before.
The equations are:
3a + 6b = 12
-3a + 6b = -12
Adding the equations, we get:
12b = 0
And b = 0
B. All rectangles are parallelograms! And C. All equilateral triangles are isosceles! :-)
Answer:
B and C
Step-by-step explanation:
Minimum and Maximum points occur when the gradient of the function is equal to 0. Graphically this looks like a bend such that the function dips from decreasing to increasing (the gradient goes form being negative to positive) and vice versa.
A minimum point occurs where all the nearby values are higher than that of the point in question.
A maximum point occurs where all the nearby points are lower than the point in question.
By looking at the graph, there is a maximum point around (4.5, 1.5) which is consistent with B but not A (since A talks about a minimum point)
By looking at the graph, there is a minimum point around (0.5, 1.5) which is consistent with C.
I've highlighted areas of interest below so hopefully that's helpful :>
