The value of f(5) is -37
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
<em><u>Given function is:</u></em>
We have to find the value of f(5)
To find the value of f(5), we have to substitute x is equal to 5 in given function
Plug in x = 5 in f(x)
Thus value of f(5) is -37
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
The common difference d of an arithmetic sequence is
d = -
=
-
Substitute in values and solve for k, that is
5k - 1 - 2k = 6k + 2 - (5k - 1)
3k - 1 = 6k + 2 - 5k + 1
3k - 1 = k + 3 ( subtract k from both sides )
2k - 1 = 3 ( add 1 to both sides )
2k = 4 ⇒ k = 2
--------------------------------------------------------
The n th term of an arithmetic sequence is
=
+ (n - 1)d
= 2k = 2 × 2 = 4 and
d = 5k - 1 - 2k = 3k - 1 = (3 × 2) - 1 = 5
Hence
= 4 + (7 × 5) = 4 + 35 = 39
