Answer:
a2=12 (the second term of the sequence is 12)
Step-by-step explanation:
a5=324
If the term to term rule is multiply by any number, we deal with geometrical sequence
The formula you should use is an= a1*r^(n-1) where n is the number of the term which we know. In our case we know
a5, so use 5 instead of n
Then you have a5=a1*r^4 where r is the number 3 (because each next term is greater than previous in 3 times)
a5=324
324= a1*3^4
324=a1*81
a1=4 (We find the first term of sequence, because having it you can easily search for every term )
Return to the formula an= a1*r^n-1
Now search for the second term using 2 instead of n in the formula
a2= a1*r^1
a2=a1*r, a1=4, r=3
a2=4*3=12
The answer to the question
(8 + (-3)) / 2
= (8 - 3) / 2
= 5 / 2
= 2 1/2 or 2.5
The average temp is 2.5 degrees above zero.
Hi there!
Find the y-intercept by substituting in 0 for x:
f(0) = 0² + 2(0) + 3
Simplify:
f(0) = 3
