Answer:
The values of a, b and c are:
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
First Confirm the sequence is quadratic by finding the second difference.
Sequence = 
1st difference:
2nd difference:
Step 2:
Just divide the second difference by 2, you will get the value of
.
6 ÷ 2 = 3
So the first term of the nth term is 
Step 3: Next, substitute the number 1 to 5 into 
n = 1,2,3,4,5
3n² = 3,12,27,48,75
Step 4:
Now, take these values (3n²) from the numbers in the original number sequence and work out the nth term of these numbers that form a linear sequence.
n = 1,2,3,4,5
3n² = 3,12,27,48,75
Differences:
1 - 3 = -2
11 - 12 = -1
27 - 27 = 0
49 - 48 = 1
Now the nth term of these differences (-2,-1,0,1) is (n - 1) - 2.
so b = 1, and c = -3
Step 5: Write down your final answer in the form an² + bn + c.
3n² + (n - 1) -2
= 3n² + n - 1 - 2
= 3n² + n - 3
Therefore, the values of a, b and c are:
No, the sequence is algebraic.
Answer:
commutative property
hope that helped, if yes give me brainliest and if no draw my attention by hitting the comment box.
Box = b
Parrots = p
b/p = number of days it can support the parrots
Half a dozen = 6 (A dozen is 12)
1/6 = 15
To work out the percentage of '6' '5' is, use the equation
(5/6)*100 = 83.333....
Meaning that with one less bird, the box will support the birds for 16.666... (100 - 18.333...) longer
(15/100)*116.666... = 17.4999....
The box will sustain the parrots for 17.5 days
Find the slope first by doing (6+2)/(4-3)=8/1 or just 8. Next use a set of coordinates into the equation so 6=8(4)+b then solve so 6=32+b next subtract 32 from both sides which would equal -24=b. Then plug it all into the equation so y=8x-24
