Answer:
an = 4n +5
Step-by-step explanation:
First we need to find a common difference
d = a2-a1 = 13-9 = 4
The formula for an
an =a1+d(n-1)
an = 9 + 4(n-1)
Distributing
an = 9+4n-4
Combine like terms
an = 4n +5
Answer:
2(x + 2)² - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
2x² + 8x + 3
To obtain the required form use the method of completing the square.
The coefficient of the x² term must be 1, thus factor 2 out of 2x² + 8x
= 2(x² + 4x) + 3
add/subtract ( half the coefficient of the x- term)² to x² + 4x
= 2(x² + 2(2)x + 4 - 4) + 3
= 2(x + 2)² - 8 + 3
= 2(x + 2)² - 5
with p = 2 and q = - 5
