1 answer:

5 0

An = 2 * a(n-1)
a1 = -1
a2 = 2 * a1 = 2 * -1 = -2
a3 = 2 * a2 = 2 * -2 = -4
a4 = 2 * a3 = 2 * -4 = -8
a5 = 2 * a4 = 2 * -8 = -16
a6 = 2 * a5 = 2 * -16 = -32

Therefore, first six term are: -1, -2, -4, -8, -16, -32

Write a factored equation that has the solutions x=6 and x=-1

yuradex [85]

Answer:

y = (x - 6)(x + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Use factored form, y = a(x - r1)(x - r2), where r1 and r2 are roots.

Since the solutions are 6 and -1, plug in these numbers:

y = (x - 6)(x + 1)

So, the factored equation is y = (x - 6)(x + 1)
