since this is a multiplication, all the numerators are just factors of the product numerator and all denominators are just factors of the product denominator, so we can simply reorder them some, without changing the product.

The graph of the function is a parabola.
The nose comes down as far as y=4 but no farther.
That happens when (x - 2)² = 0 , and THAT happens when x = 2 .

Answer:
1. x^4 -x^3 -4x^2 -3
a1 = -7.4
an = an-1 -13.8 (choice 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = x^4 -x^2 +9
g(x) = x^3 +3x^2 +12
We are subtracting
f(x) -g(x) =x^4 -x^2 +9 - ( x^3 +3x^2 +12)
Distribute the minus sign
x^4 -x^2 +9 - x^3 -3x^2 -12
I like to line them up vertically
x^4 -x^2 +9
- x^3 -3x^2 -12
-------------------------
x^4 -x^3 -4x^2 -3
2. a1 = -7.4
To find the common difference, take term 2 and subtract term 1
-21.2 - (-7.4)
-21.2 + 7.4
-13.8
an = an-1 -13.8
Answer:
8,820
Step-by-step explanation:
One candle:
½ × 10 × 7 × 6
= 210 cm³
42 candles:
42 × 210
= 8,820 cm³
