Answer: 
This is the same as
and it is also equivalent to 
=====================================================
Explanation:
n is some placeholder for a number
one fourth of that number is
which is the same as
or
since 1/4 = 0.25
From here, we subtract off 2 to get
as one possible final answer.
To find this, first find the factor or rate of which the numbers are moving. To do so do as follows.
subtract 1 from 3
3-1=2
So each number is having 2 added to it.
Now add two to 7 and the numbers afterwards till you get the 12th term
7+2=9
1+3+5+7+9
9+2=11
1+3+5+7+9+11
11+2=13
1+3+5+7+9+11+13
13+2=15
1+3+5+7+9+11+13+15
15+2=17
1+3+5+7+9+11+13+15+17
17+2=19
1+3+5+7+9+11+13+15+17+19
19+2=21
1+3+5+7+9+11+13+15+17+19+21
21+2=23
1+3+5+7+9+11+13+15+17+19+21+23
So 23 is the 12th term
Answer:
is an odd function.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are asked to prove whether
is even or odd.
We know that a function
is even if
and a function
is odd, when
.
We also know that an even function is symmetric with respect to y-axis and an odd function is symmetric about the origin.
Upon looking at our attachment, we can see that
is symmetric with respect to origin, therefore,
is an odd function.
