Answer:

  • AP
  • tₙ = (n-2)k² + (2n - 3)k + n

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given sequence:</u>

  • -k² - k + 1, k + 2, k² + 3k + 3, 2k² + 5k + 4, ...

We can see apart from the second term all terms are 2nd degree trinomial so it is not a GP.

Let's find the difference: to determine if it is a AP:

  • k + 2 - (-k² - k + 1) = k + 2 + k² + k -1 = k² + 2k + 1
  • k² + 3k + 3 - (k + 2) =  k² + 3k + 3 - k - 2 = k² + 2k + 1
  • 2k² + 5k + 4 - (k² + 3k + 3) = 2k² + 5k + 4 - k² - 3k - 3 = k² + 2k + 1

As we see the difference is common and it confirms the sequence is AP.

<u>First term is </u>

  • a₁= -k² - k + 1

<u>Common difference is </u>

  • d = k² + 2k + 1

<u>nth term is:</u>

  • tₙ = a₁ + (n-1)d
  • tₙ = -k² - k + 1 + (n-1)(k² + 2k + 1) =
  • -k² - k + 1 + (n-1)k² + (n-1)*2k + n-1 =
  • (n-2)k² + (2n - 3)k + n

In your lab, a substance's temperature has been observed to follow the function T(x) = (x − 4)3 + 6. The turning point of the gr
hichkok12 [17]

I assume (x-4)3 means (x-4)³.  What we wish is to set the derivative equal to zero.

Expanding the T(x) polynomial makes it easier for me to take the derivative.

So (x-4)³ = x³ - 12x² + 48x - 64 + 6

T'(x) = 3x² - 24x + 48

We can factor out a 3 and set this to zero:

x² - 8x + 16 = 0

(x -4)² = 0

x = 4 should therefore represent the turning point.

I am mildly chagrined, I almost used the f'(x) = nx^(n-1) function at first, which appears would have been correct.
