Factor completely. Remember to look first for a common factor. If a polynomial is prime, state this.

This one is prime. The sum of two squares doesn't factor.

The more interesting case is q^2-1, which factors into (q-1)(q+1).

What is the 38th term of 459,450,441,..

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

The 38th term of 459,450,441,.. will be:

$a_{13}=351$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the sequence

$459,450,441,..$

An arithmetic sequence has a constant difference 'd' and is defined by

$a_n=a_1+\left(n-1\right)d$

computing the differences of all the adjacent terms

$450-459=-9,\:\quad \:441-450=-9$

$d=-9$

The first element of the sequence is

$a_1=459$

so the nth term will be

$a_n=-9\left(n-1\right)+459$

$a_n=-9n+468$

Putting n=38 to find the 38th term

$a_n=-9n+468$

$a_{13}=-9\left(13\right)+468$

$a_{13}=-117+468$

$a_{13}=351$

Therefore, the 38th term of 459,450,441,.. will be:

$a_{13}=351$
