LuckyWell [14K]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

C. a_n=(9)(\frac{2}{3})^{n-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

Iterative geometric sequence:

a_n=a_1x^{n-1}

Recursive geometric sequence:

a_n=xa_{n-1}

The equations are very similar and you only really need to rearrange it. The factor (2/3) and the first term (9) are given, so you can write the iterative equation:

a_n=(9)(\frac{2}{3})^{n-1}

And so the answer is C.

Does the quadratic have a maximum or minimum
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

B)max/ opens down

Step-by-step explanation:

Parabola equation:

The equation of a parabola has the following format:

y = ax^2 + bx + c

If a > 0, that is, x² is multiplied by a positive number, the function has a minimum value and the parabola opens up.

If a < 0, that is, x² is multiplied by a negative number, the function has a maximum value and the parabola opens down.

In this question:

y = -x^2 - 2x + 3

From the graph, we already see that it opens down and has a max, and analitically, since a = -1 < 0, this is confirmed. The correct answer is given by option b.
