You can see how the difference between two consecutive terms is constantly increasing:




So, for the next terms we'll have to add +9, +11, +13 and so on.
Also, note that
is obtained by adding the 2nd odd number to
,
is obtained by adding the 3rd odd number to
, and so on.
So, the recursive formula is

For the explicit formula, recall that the sum of the first n odd numbers is n squared. Taking into account the fact that we're not starting from 1, we have

Answer:
7x^2 -28x +28
Step-by-step explanation:
7(x - 2)^2
7 ( x-2)(x-2)
Foil
7 ( x^2 -2x-2x+4)
Combine like terms
7( x^2 -4x+4)
Distribute
7x^2 -28x +28
What r the options so i can get an idea
We can fill in the numbers in the function.
y = 7.2 + 4(x-2)
y = 7.2 + 4 (2-2)
And then we can start solving it.
y = 7.2 + 4 (0)
y = 7.2
So c.
I hope I helped :)
Answer:The method of substitution involves three steps: Solve one equation for one of the variables. Substitute (plug-in) this expression into the other equation and solve. Resubstitute the value into the original equation to find the corresponding variable.
