Answer:
(a) -6
Step-by-step explanation:
P(x) = ax^3 +bx - 3
- P(-1) = -a-b-3 = 0
- therefore a+b=-3
- P(1) = a+b-3
- P(1) = -3 - 3 = -6
- (a)
Answer:
a) The mass is released at t = 0 when h is minimum. Half a cycle later h reaches its maximum and another half a cycle it reaches its minimum again. Hence over one cycle, h varies with t as follows:
b) According to the graph obtained in part a), h(t) could be modeled by a cosine function shifted (translated) vertically up and horizontally to the right. Hence
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Common ratio: -3
Geometric sequence: an=5(-3)^n-1
Step-by-step explanation:
Each number multiplied by -3 gets the product of the next number. (5*-3= -15)
