A sequence is arithmetic if the difference between consecutive terms is some fixed number, regardless of which pair of consecutive terms you pick out of the sequence.
For example, the following sequences are arithmetic:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, ... (difference = 1)
-25, -20, -15, -10, -5, ... (difference = 5)
2. Carla's sequence is not arithmetic, because the differences between consecutive terms are all different:
13 - 11 = 2
17 - 13 = 4
25 - 17 = 8
She can adjust the sequence by changing the last two numbers to 15 and 17, since this makes the difference fixed:
13 - 11 = 2
15 - 13 = 2
17 - 15 = 2
and so on.
3. The sequence
45, 48, 51, 54, ...
is arithmetic with difference 3 between terms. Recursively, we can write the th term,
, in terms of the previous,
th term,
:
By this definition, we can just as easily write the th term in terms of the
th term:
Then, substituting this into the previous equation, we have
We can continue this process to write in terms of
:
and so on. (You might notice that the subscript of the term on the right side, and the number of 3s being added, together sum to .) The pattern continues down to
The first term in this sequence is , so we have
a.
where .
b. You can fill in the blanks by just adding 3 to the previous term:
45, 48, 51, 54, <u>57</u>, 60, <u>63</u>, 66, 69, ...
Then, using the formula found in (a), the 15th term of the sequence is
Answer:
(2xy)³
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the Power Rule of Exponents:
We can apply the Power Rule of Exponents to the given exponential expression, 8x³y³, by taking the smallest factor that when cubed (or raised to an exponent of 3), will produce the same results as the original exponential expression.
8 is a perfect cube of 2: ⇒ 2 × 2 × 2 = 2³ = 8
The cube of x is x³: ⇒ x × x × x = x³
The cube of y is y³ ⇒ y × y × y = y³
Hence, we can take the least common factors, (2xy) and raise them to the third power:
(2xy)³ = 2³x³y³ = 8x³y³
Therefore, the correct answer is: (2xy)³
