Answer:

-38, 62, -100

Step-by-step explanation:

I think you meant a +24, not the -24.

The recursive formula is a_n = a_(n-2) - a_(n-1)

so. we try this 3 times after the -24 term

a_3 = -4 = 2 - 6 = a_1 - a_2

...

a_6 = a_4 - a_5 = 10 - (-14) = 24

a_7 = a_5 - a_6 = -14 - (24) = -38

a_8 = a_6 - a_7 = 24 - (-38) = 62

a_9 = a_7 - a_8 = -38 - 62 = -100

a_10 = a_8 - a_9 = 62 - (-100) = 162

Answer:

(x+5) (x+5)

Step-by-step explanation:

1) You need to find two numbers that multiply to give you 25 but add up to 10.

2) This would be 5 and 5 as 5 times 5 gives you 25. Also, 5 plus 5 gives you 10.

3) to get x square you do x times x.

4) So: (x+5) (x+5)
