Working backwards:
17-3=14
14/2=7
7 is the second term in the sequence. Continue backwards.
7-3=4
4/2=2
2 is the first term in the sequence, aka your answer.
Answer:
x^2 + 4x * (3 - sqrt(x)) - 2(5 + sqrt(x))
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly let us split this up, we need to first work out what g(h(x)) is:
h(x) = Sqrt(x) so g(h(x)) = g(sqrt(x)) = sqrt(x) - 2
Now to work out f(g(h(x))) = f(sqrt(x) - 2) = (sqrt(x) - 2)^4 + 6
= (sqrt(x) - 2) * (sqrt(x) - 2) * (sqrt(x) - 2) * (sqrt(x) - 2) - 6
= (x - 2 * sqrt(x) + 4) * (x - 2 * sqrt(x) + 4) - 6
= x^2 - 2x * sqrt(x) + 4x - 2x * sqrt(x) + 4x - 8 * sqrt(x) + 4x - 8 * sqrt(x) + 16 - 6
= x^2 - 4x * sqrt(x) + 12x - 16 * sqrt(x) + 10
= x^2 + 4x * (3 - sqrt(x)) - 2(5 + sqrt(x))
Answer:
B.
Step-by-step explanation:
The function is positive when it is above the x-axis
The following x values are where the function has positive y coordinates:
(-2,0)
(4,inf)
The function is negative when it is below the x-axis
The following x values are where the function has negative y coordinates:
(-inf,-2)
(0,4)
So you should see all of these intervals listed in choice B
Answer:
2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
5/6 - (1/8÷3/4)
=5/6 - (1/8 × 4/3)
=5/6 - ( 1/6)
=4/6
=2/3
