Answer:
= 1+2n and 63
Step-by-step explanation:
the question belongs to arithmetic sequence and can be determined by the formula
= a1 + d (n-1)
Let " " represents the number of band members in the nth row
and 'd' represents the common difference.( as stated each row has 2 more band members than the row before it)
therefore, d=2
'a1' represents first row that has three members. So, a1 = 3
->Rule for nth term will be:
= 3 + 2(n-1)
= 3 + 2n -2
= 1+2n
-> In order to find total number of band members '
'
Let 
represent total number in n rows
We'll use the formula, i.e = n/1 (
+ )
where, n is the number of terms, is the first term and is the last term
So,
n=7
= 1 + 2(7)= 15
=> = 7/2 (3 + 15)
= 63
The total number of band members are 63
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
(a)
Given
2k - 6k² + 4k³ ← factor out 2k from each term
= 2k(1 - 3k + 2k²)
To factor the quadratic
Consider the factors of the product of the constant term ( 1) and the coefficient of the k² term (+ 2) which sum to give the coefficient of the k- term (- 3)
The factors are - 1 and - 2
Use these factors to split the k- term
1 - k - 2k + 2k² ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )
1(1 - k) - 2k(1 - k) ← factor out (1 - k) from each term
= (1 - k)(1 - 2k)
1 - 3k + 2k² = (1 - k)(1 - 2k) and
2k - 6k² + 4k³ = 2k(1 - k)(1 - 2k)
(b)
Given
2ax - 4ay + 3bx - 6by ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )
= 2a(x - 2y) + 3b(x - 2y) ← factor out (x - 2y) from each term
= (x - 2y)(2a + 3b)
Explanation:
The expression f(0) represents the value of the function at x=0 which means the y-intercept of the function.
the y-intercept of the graph is the point that crosses the y-axis.
From the given graph,
The y-intercept of the graph does not define.
Answer: f(0) = not defined
