1st term: n = 1
apply the value 1 to n in the equation:
1(1-1) - 5
1(0) - 5
0 - 5
- 5
Second term n = 2
2(2 - 1) - 5
2 (1) - 5
2 - 5
-3
Since we know the 1st term is -5 in the sequence and the second is -3, we can assume the answer is D. -5, -3, etc
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a parabola in vertex form is
y = a(x - h)² + k
where (h. k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier
here (h, k) = (- 6, - 1), thus
y = a(x + 6)² - 1
To find a substitute one of the roots into the equation
Using (- 3, 0), then
0 = a(- 3 +6)² - 1
0 = 9a - 1 ( add 1 to both sides )
1 = 9a ( divide both sides by 9 )
a =
, thus
y =
(x + 6)² - 1 ← in vertex form
Expand factor and simplify
y =
(x² + 12x + 36) - 1 ← distribute
y =
x² +
x + 4 - 1
=
x² +
x + 3 ← in standard form
