What is the nth term rule of the quadratic sequence below?
-4,-3,0,5, 12, 21, 32,...
I need help quick!!

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The nth term = n^2 - 2n - 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we will be finding the nth term of a quadratic number sequence. A quadratic number sequence has nth term = an² + bn + c

Example 1

Write down the nth term of this quadratic number sequence.

-3, 8, 23, 42, 65...

Step 1: Confirm the sequence is quadratic. This is done by finding the second difference.

Sequence = -3, 8, 23, 42, 65

1st difference = 11,15,19,23

2nd difference = 4,4,4,4

Step 2: If you divide the second difference by 2, you will get the value of a.

4 ÷ 2 = 2

So the first term of the nth term is 2n²

Step 3: Next, substitute the number 1 to 5 into 2n².

n = 1,2,3,4,5

2n² = 2,8,18,32,50

Step 4: Now, take these values (2n²) from the numbers in the original number sequence and work out the nth term of these numbers that form a linear sequence.

n = 1,2,3,4,5

2n² = 2,8,18,32,50

Differences = -5,0,5,10,15

Now the nth term of these differences (-5,0,5,10,15) is 5n -10.

So b = 5 and c = -10.

Step 5: Write down your final answer in the form an² + bn + c.

2n² + 5n -10

Example 2

Write down the nth term of this quadratic number sequence.

9, 28, 57, 96, 145...

Step 1: Confirm if the sequence is quadratic. This is done by finding the second difference.

Sequence = 9, 28, 57, 96, 145...

1st differences = 19,29,39,49

2nd differences = 10,10,10

Step 2: If you divide the second difference by 2, you will get the value of a.

10 ÷ 2 = 5

So the first term of the nth term is 5n²

Step 3: Next, substitute the number 1 to 5 into 5n².

n = 1,2,3,4,5

5n² = 5,20,45,80,125

Step 4: Now, take these values (5n²) from the numbers in the original number sequence and work out the nth term of these numbers that form a linear sequence.

n = 1,2,3,4,5

5n² = 5,20,45,80,125

Differences = 4,8,12,16,20

Now the nth term of these differences (4,8,12,16,20) is 4n. So b = 4 and c = 0.

Step 5: Write down your final answer in the form an² + bn + c.

5n² + 4n

Answers

Answer: The base is going to be 6 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

So to find the area of a triangle we need to know the formula which is A= 1/2bh (A= one half times base times height) So, all we need to do is multiply the area by 2

32*2=72 Then to find the missing length, we divided the area by 12 which is 6.

Sam made $189 for 9 hours of work. At the same rate, how many hours would he have to work to make S147?​

Answers

Answer:  7 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

$189/9 hr = $21/hr

$21/hr(x) = $147

x = 147/21

x = 7 hours

Answer:

7 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

We know 9 hours of work paid $189

to find how much Sam makes in one hour we divide the amount made by the time it took to make it

189 / 9    = 21 dollars per hour

then we know she would like to make $147 more at a rate of $21/hr so

147 / 21   = 7 hours

the nth The nth term of a sequence is n-4 what is the tenth term

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

the nth term is n-4, so the 10th term (that means n = 10) is then 10-4 = 6

n-4 is the rule of the sequence.

Simply replace "n" with a number and solve your equation.

For example, if you are finding the 5th term, you do it like this:

= n - 4

= (5) - 4

= 1

Now, as you asked, the tenth term:

= n - 4

= (10) - 4

= 6

The ratio of students in Class X to Class Y is 2 : 5. There are 24 more students in Class Y than Class X. How many students must transfer from Class Y to Class X so that both classes have equal number of students?

Answers

Answer:

The answer will be 12 students. 12 students must transfer from Class Y to Class X so that both classes have equal number of students.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the ratio is 2 : 5, we would multiply both number to 8 and get 16 : 40.

Now find the average of those two numbers: (16 + 40) / 2 which gets you 28. Now either subtract 16 from 28 or subtract 28 from 40 and you will get 12.

28 - 16 = 12 students

40 - 28 = 12 students.

what is the answer too 2y-3=-5

Answers

2 − 3 = −5

First we need to Add 3 to both sides of the equation:

2 − 3 + 3 = −5 + 3

Then we simplify:

2 = −5 + 3

 2 = −2

Now we divide both sides of the equation by the same term:

2 / 2 = −2 / 2

Final answer: = −1

I hope this helps!

Answer:

Y= - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

2y-3= - 5

  +3    +3

   2y= -2

   /2    /2

Y= -1

Step 1: Add 3 to both sides because you want to cancel out the 3 so you do the opposite of what is say's. For example, if it says 2y-3 add 3 or 2y+3 subtract 3 from both sides.

Step 2: Add 3 to -5 which would be -2

Step 3: Since you're "multiplying" Y to 2 you're going to divide 2 to get Y by itself. So 2/2 cancels out and now you're left with y

Step 4: Divide 2 form -2 and you get -1
