STALIN [3.7K]3 years ago
5 0

Explanation

Given that Sn = Sn-2 . (Sn-1 - 1)

Tn = Sn - Sn-1

Tn = Sn-2 . (Sn-1 - 1) - (Sn-3 . (Sn-2 - 1))

T3 = S1.(S2-1) - (S0.(S1-1)

T3 = 2.(3-1) - 1.(2-1)

T3 = 2(2) - 1(1)

T3 = 4-2

T3 = 3

T4 = S2.(S3-1) - (S1.(S2-1)

T4 =3.(-1) - 1.(2-1)

T4 = 2(2) - 1(1)

T4 = 4-2

T4 = 3

Sector 6 in 3 ways without using the colour in sector 5

Sector 7 in 3 ways without using the colour in sector 6

Which set of ordered pairs is not a functions?
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

X values cannot repeat in a function, 3 is used as an X value twice in A, and therefore cannot be a function.

If this is graphed, you can use the vertical line test, if a vertical line on any point goes through other points, it is not a function.

In this case, just check if X repeats.
