Rufina [12.5K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The first 5 terms are 2, 5, 8, 11, 14.

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. You use the formula to find out each term.
  2. f(n)=3n-1 starting with n=1. If n=1 that is the 1st term, if n=2 that is the 2nd term, and so on. n means what number term it is.
  3. Now to find each term:
  • n=1: f(1)= 3(1)-1= 3-1= 2 The 1st term is 2
  • n=2: f(2)= 3(2)-1= 6-1= 5 The 2nd term is 5
  • n=3: f(3)= 3(3)-1= 9-1=8 The 3rd term is 8
  • n=4: f(4)= 4(3)-1= 12-1= 11 The 4th term is 11
  • n=5: f(5)= 5(3)-1= 15-1= 14 The 5th term is 14

So the first 5 terms are 2,5,8,11,14

Let f(x)=4x^2+13x-12 and g(x)=x+4. Perform the function operation <br> F•g(x)<br><br> Please help!!!
ruslelena [56]

Answer: 4x³+29x²+40x-48

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve f(x)·g(x), you multiply them together.

(4x²+13x-12)(x+4)                           [distribute by FOIL]

4x³+16x²+13x²+52x-12x-48          [combine like terms]

4x³+29x²+40x-48

Now, we know that f(x)·g(x)=4x³+29x²+40x-48.
