Compute successive differences of the terms.
If they are all the same, the sequence is arithmetic and the common difference is the difference you have found.
If successive pairs of differences have the same ratio, the sequence is geometric and the common ratio is the ratio you have determined.
Example of arithmetic sequence:
1, 3, 5, 7
Successive differences are 3-1 = 2, 5-3 = 2, 7-5 = 2. All the differences are 2, which is the common difference of the sequence.
Example of geometric sequence:
1, -3, 9, -27
Successive differences are -3-1 = -4, 9-(-3) = 12, -27-9 = -36. These are not the same, so the sequence is not arithmetic. Ratios of successive pairs of differences are 12/-4 = -3, -36/12 = -3. These are the same, so the sequence is geometric with common ratio -3.
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
I searched it up on the web
Answersin -> 48
Step-by-step explanation:
solve for the length of the horizontal line by doing:
sin(55)=x/58
rearrange: x = sin(55) times 58 = 47.51
round UP to 48
You plug in the values for x in each respective equation.
a) f(3) = 3 + 1 which equals: 4.
so, f(3) = 4
b) g(3) = (3)^2 - 3 which equals 9 - 3, which equals 6.
so, g(3) = 6.
hope this helps! (:
The answer is C) y= |x-2| -5
