f(x)= -2x-3
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
Let the sequence given here is -5, -7, -9, -11, -13 ......
Here the first term (a₁) of sequence is -5
And the common difference between the numbers in the sequence is
d= (-7-(-5)) = -7+5 = -2
Let the number of terms be x
Step 2;
To find the sequence function basic arithmetic sequence formula is
aₙ = a₁ + d( x-1)
Applying the values we get
f(X) = -5 + ((-2)(X-1))
on simplification
f(X) = -5 + (-2X+2)
f(X)= -5+2-2X
f(X)= -3-2X
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
(f g)(x) is equal to f(x) times g(x). So you just need to multiply both of the equations together. Use the foil method to multiply (x+2)(x-4)

I have attached an image to better explain the foil method
(2, 8) because 8 is not negative

The first five terms of the sequence are 1, 4, 7, 10, 13.
Solution:
Given data:


General term of the arithmetic sequence.
, where d is the common difference.
d = 3

Put n = 2 in
, we get



Put n = 3 in
, we get



Put n = 4 in
, we get



Put n = 5 in
, we get



The first five terms of the sequence are 1, 4, 7, 10, 13.
Answer:
1 pear = $0.75; 1 orange = $0.65
Step-by-step explanation:
(1) 3P + 4O = 4.85
(2) 3P + 10O = 8.75 Eqn (2) - Eqn (1)
3P + 10O – 3P – 4O = 8.75 – 4.85 Combine like terms
6O = 3.90 Divide each side by 6
O = $0.65 Substitute into Eqn (1)
3P + 4×0.65 = 4.85
3P + 2.60 = 4.85 Subtract 2.60 from each side
3P = 2.25 Divide each side by 3
P = $0.75
Oranges cost $0.65 each and pears are $0.75 each
