Answer:
The two numbers following 1,-2,3,-4,5... are -6 and 7.
Step-by-step explanation:
index: 1 2 3 4 5 ....
value: 1 -2 3 -4 5
Let the index be n. Then the first term is a(1), the secon is a(2), and so on.
a(2) = 2*(-1)^(2-1) = 2*(-1) = -2 (correct)
a(3) = 3*(-1)^(3-1) = 3*(-1)^2 = 3 (correct)
a(4) = 4*(-1)^(4-1) = 4*(-1)^3 = -4 (correct)
So the general formula for a(n) is: a(n)=n(-1)^(n-1)
Thus,
a(5) = 5(-1)^4 = 5
a(6) = 6(-1)^5 = -6
a(7) = 7(-1)^6 = 7
The "next two numbers in the pattern" are -6 and 7. The first 7 numbers are
1,-2,3,-4,5, -6, 7
For the first day we have the following function:
f (n) = (0.3 * 10) n + 8
For the second day we have the following function:
f (n) = (0.4 * 10) n + 5
You spent the same amount of money as the day before:
(0.3 * 10) n + 8 = (0.4 * 10) n + 5
3n + 8 = 4n + 5
n = 8-5
n = 3 items
We evaluate each function for n = 3
f (3) = (0.3 * 10) * 3 + 8 = 17 $
f (3) = (0.4 * 10) * 3 + 5 = 17 $
The total amount of money is:
17 + 17 = 34 $
Answer:
you purchase 6 items
you spend at the craft store during the sale $ 34
Asome that’s cool do well
Please use " ^ " to denote exponentiation:
<span>f(x) = –(x + 8)^2 – 1
Find the first derivative: f '(x) = -2(x+8)(1)
Set this = to 0: -2(x+8) = 0
solve for x: x = -8
Divide the number line into subintervals based upon x=-8:
(-inf, -8) and (-8, inf)
Choose a test value for x from each interval, e. g., -10 from the first interval and 20 from the second.
Subst. this test value into the derivative, shown above.
If the result is + the function is incr on that interval; if - the fn. is decr.

Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Like terms mean same variable. it doesnt really matter if its negative in the front.
