The sequence 1, 3, 6, 10, 15, etc find dy/dx...
dy/dx=2,3,4,5 this is not a constant so find d2y/dx2
d2y/dx2=1,1,1, this is a constant, specifically a constant acceleration, which is a property of a quadratic function of the form ax^2+bx+c and if we use three points of the sequence we can solve for all of the variables...
9a+3b+c=6
4a+2b+c=3
a+b+c=1 getting differences
5a+b=3
3a+b=2 and again
2a=1, so a=1/2, making 3a+b=2 become:
1.5+b=2, so b=1/2, making a+b+c=1 become
1/2+1/2+c=1 so c=0 so our function is:
a(n)=(n^2+n)/2
which can be expressed, if you factor the numerator as:
a(n)=n(n-1)/2
Answer:
b = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
Start with your given:
-3b + 7 = 13
Subtract 7 on both sides:
-3b = 6
Then, divide -3 on both sides and solve:
b = -2
The correct answer is -18
<span>the positive correlation between the height of a person and the number of times a person bumps their head on a low ceiling
Positive correlation means that when one factor increases, the other factor also increases and vice versa.
Causation is a correlation wherein one factor is the main contributor of the other factor happening. In this case, the higher the height of a person is, the higher his chances of bumping his head on a low ceiling. </span>
