Answer:

$\sf \bold{ 1 * (-3)^{n-1}}$

Explanation:

first term, a₁ = 1

difference between the terms: -3

used geometric formula : $\bold{\sf a_1 * (r)^{n-1}}$

where "a₁ is first term" and "r refers to common difference"

formula for this nth term: $\sf \bold{ 1 * (-3)^{n-1}}$

A system is inconsistent when there are no solutions between the two equations. Graphically, the lines will be parallel (they never meet!) and the slopes will be the same. But the y-intercepts will be different.

Let's look at the four equations, with each solved as needed, into y = mx + b form.

A: 2x + y = 5

y = 5 - 2x

y = -2x + 5

Compared to y = 2x + 5, the slopes are different, so this system won't be inconsistent. Not a good choice.

B: y = 2x + 5

Compared to y = 2x + 5, the slopes are the same and the y intercepts are the same. This system has infinitely many solutions. Not a good choice.

C: 2x - 4y = 10

-4y = 10 - 2x

-4y = -2x + 10

y = 2/4x -10/4

Here the slopes are different, so, like A this is not a good choice.

D: 2y - 4x = -10

2y = =10 + 4x

2y = 4x - 10

y = 2x - 5

Compared to y = 2x + 5 we have the same slopes and different y intercepts. The lines will be parallel and the system is inconsistent.

Thus, D is the best choice.

Answer:

g o f = $g(f(x)) = 32x^2 + 32x + 4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$f(x) = 4x +2$

$g(x) =2x^2 - 4$

Required:

Find g o f

This is calculated as:

$gof = g(f(x))$

$g(x) =2x^2 - 4$

So:

$g(f(x)) = 2(4x+2)^2 - 4$

$g(f(x)) = 2(4x+2)(4x+2) - 4$

$g(f(x)) = 2[ 16x^2 + 16x + 4)] - 4$

$g(f(x)) = 32x^2 + 32x + 8 - 4$

$g(f(x)) = 32x^2 + 32x + 4$
