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 a certain year, there were 88 female officials in Congress, which is comprised of the House of Representatives and the Senate
Ainat [17]

Answer:

  • 71 in House of Representatives
  • 17 in Senate

Step-by-step explanation:

Let h and s represent the numbers in the House and Senate, respectively. Then we have ...

  h + s = 88

  h - s = 54

Subtracting the second equation from the first gives ...

  (h +s) -(h -s) = (88) -(54)

  2s = 34 . . . . . simplify

  s = 17 . . . . . . . divide by 2

  h = 88 -17 = 71 . . . . find the other value using the sum equation

There were 71 females in the House of Representatives, and 17 females in the Senate.
