Fill in x=1.7 gives f(1.7) = 0.5*1.7 ≈ 0.850
You should have put a picture so ppl would know what the question is askin
Plug in n = 1 into the nth term formula
a(n) = 4n-1
a(1) = 4*1-1
a(1) = 3
So the first term is 3
The second term will be 7 because we add on 4 each time, as indicated by the slope of 4. This is also known as the common difference.
So the nth term is found by adding 4 to the (n-1)st term, in other words,
a(n) = a(n-1)+4
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
In summary, the answer is
a1=3; an=an-1+4
which is choice B
The last terms must multiply to the last terms (confusing)
example
if ax^3+bx^2+c+d=(ex+f)(gx+h)(jx+k) then
d=fhk
so
70 is last term
we got 2 and 5
2*5*?=70
10*?=70
divide by 10
?=7
the missing number is 7
