<h3>
Answer: Choice A</h3>
The first line shown in choice A is 
which means "the first term is -2"
The next line in choice A means "the nth term (
) is found by multiplying the prior term (
) by 8". Put another way: multiply each term by 8 to get the next term.
first term = -2
second term = 8*(first term) = 8*(-2) = -16
third term = 8*(second term) = 8*(-16) = -128
fourth term = 8*(third term) = 8*(-128) = -1024
and so on.
Answer:
See the explanation.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the function f(x) = x² + 2x - 5
Zeros :
If f(x) = 0 i.e. x² + 2x - 5 = 0
The left hand side can not be factorized. Hence, use Sridhar Acharya formula and
and
⇒ x = -3.45 and 1.45
Y- intercept :
Putting x = 0, we get, f(x) = - 5, Hence, y-intercept is -5.
Maximum point :
Not defined
Minimum point:
The equation can be expressed as (x + 1)² = (y + 5)
This is an equation of parabola having the vertex at (-1,-5) and axis parallel to + y-axis
Therefore, the minimum point is (-1,-5)
Domain :
x can be any real number
Range:
f(x) ≥ - 6
Interval of increase:
Since this is a parabola having the vertex at (-1,-5) and axis parallel to + y-axis.
Therefore, interval of increase is +∞ > x > -1
Interval of decrease:
-∞ < x < -1
End behavior :
So, as x tends to +∞ , then f(x) tends to +∞
And as x tends to -∞, then f(x) tends to +∞. (Answer)
Oh Foxy, Foxy, how totally debilitated you must be ! Try to relax. Nobody
enjoys a painful brain, and believe me, this problem is not worth it.
Let me put it to you this way: What if the problem said . . .
-- Demarcus has $8 more than his sister.
-- His sister has $4.
-- How much money ' M ' does Demarcus have ?
If your brain didn't hurt, you could quickly solve this right in there.
You would know that Demarcus' money ' M ' = 8 + 4 .
That's <em>almost </em>exactly what the problem <em>does</em> say.
Except it doesn't say he has "$8 more than his sister",
it says he has "at least" that much.
So you know that ' M ' is not exactly = 8 + 4, but that's the <u>least</u> it could be.
The actual amount of ' M ' is <u>more</u> than that.
Surely you can handle it from here, even with half of your brain
tied behind your back.
Take a good hard look at ' A ', and then go lie down.
