The next term is double the previous term, so that the 
-th term is given recursively by
This rule tells us that
and so on, with the explicit rule
for 
.
If 512 is the 
-th term in the sequence, then
The standard form of a parabola is y=ax²+bx+c
use the three given points to find the three unknown constants a, b, and c:
-2=a+b+c............1
-2=4a+2b+c......... 2
-4=9a+3b+c...........3
equation 2 minus equation 1: 3a+b=0..........4
equation 3 minus equation 2: 5a+b=-2.........5
equation 5 minus equation 4: 2a=-2, so a=-1
plug a=-1 in equation 4: -3+b=0, so b=3
Plug a=-1, b=3 in equation 1: -2=-1+3+c, so c=-4
the parabola is y=-x²+3x-4
double check: when x=1, y=-1+3-4=-2
when x=2, y=-4+6-4=-2
when x=3, y=-9+9-4=-4
Yes.
Answer:
x=-4/3
Step-by-step explanation:
x -4x-1=3
-3x-1=3
-3x-1+1=3+1
-3x=4
-3x/3 = 4/-3
x=-4/3
I hope this helps!
75d+8w+25
Part A)
75 and 8 are coefficients because coefficients are the numbers before and multiplied to the variable.
d and w are variables because variables aresymbols to represent the unknown numbers.
25 is the constant because constants are not affected by the variable.
Part B)
75d+8w+25
75(5)+8(48)+25 replace the variables
375+384+25 multiply
784 add
Part C)
No, because his stipend is a constant, and constants are not affected by the variable.
