Answer:

g(n) =  6n -25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

g(1) = -19

g(n) = g(n - 1) + 6

Required

The explicit formula

Let n = 2; So, we have:

g(n) = g(n - 1) + 6

g(2) = g(2 - 1) + 6

g(2) = g(1) + 6

g(2) = -19 + 6

g(2) = -13

So, we have:

g(1) = -19 ----- First term

g(2) = -13

Calculate common difference (d)

d = g(2) - g(1)

d = -13 --19

d = 6

The explicit function is then calculated as:

g(n) = a + (n - 1)d

Where

a = -19 --- First term

So:

g(n) = a + (n - 1)d

g(n) = -19 + (n - 1)*6

Open bracket

g(n) = -19 + 6n - 6

Collect like terms

g(n) =  6n - 6-19

g(n) =  6n -25

Tomas is making trail mix using granola and walnuts. He can spend a total of $12 on the ingredients. He buys 3 pounds of
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

The first error that Tomas made was added 6 to both sides of the equation instead of subtracting 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> represents the number of pounds of granola

y ----> represents the number of pounds of walnuts

we know that

The linear equation that represent this scenario is

2x+6y=12 -----> equation A

x=3 -----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y

2(3)+6y=12

6+6y=12

Subtract 6 both sides

6+6y-6=12-6

6y=6

Divide by 6 both sides

6y/6=6/6

y=1

so

The number of pounds of walnuts is 1

therefore

The first error that Tomas made was added 6 to both sides of the equation instead of subtracting 6

Find a formula for the inverse of the function. f(x)=1-2/x^3.
Elena-2011 [213]
       f(x) = 1 - ²/ₓ₃
          y = 1 - ²/ₓ₃
          y = 1 - ²/ₓ₃
      y - 1 = ⁻²/ₓ₃
      x - 1 = -2/y³
 y³(x - 1) = -2
         y³ = ⁻²/ₓ₋₁
          y = ∛⁻²/ₓ₋₁
          y = -∛(2x² - 4x + 2)/x - 1
      f⁻¹(x) = -∛(2x² - 4x + 2)/x - 1
