Check the forward differences of the sequence.
If [tex]\{a_n\} = \{2,6,12,20,30,42,\ldots\}[/tex], then let [tex]\{b_n\}[/tex] be the sequence of first-order differences of [tex]\{a_n\}[/tex]. That is, for n ≥ 1,
[tex]b_n = a_{n+1} - a_n[/tex]
so that [tex]\{b_n\} = \{4, 6, 8, 10, 12, \ldots\}[/tex].
Let [tex]\{c_n\}[/tex] be the sequence of differences of [tex]\{b_n\}[/tex],
[tex]c_n = b_{n+1} - b_n[/tex]
and we see that this is a constant sequence, [tex]\{c_n\} = \{2, 2, 2, 2, \ldots\}[/tex]. In other words, [tex]\{b_n\}[/tex] is an arithmetic sequence with common difference between terms of 2. That is,
[tex]2 = b_{n+1} - b_n \implies b_{n+1} = b_n + 2[/tex]
and we can solve for [tex]b_n[/tex] in terms of [tex]b_1=4[/tex]:
[tex]b_{n+1} = b_n + 2[/tex]
[tex]b_{n+1} = (b_{n-1}+2) + 2 = b_{n-1} + 2\times2[/tex]
[tex]b_{n+1} = (b_{n-2}+2) + 2\times2 = b_{n-2} + 3\times2[/tex]
and so on down to
[tex]b_{n+1} = b_1 + 2n \implies b_{n+1} = 2n + 4 \implies b_n = 2(n-1)+4 = 2(n + 1)[/tex]
We solve for [tex]a_n[/tex] in the same way.
[tex]2(n+1) = a_{n+1} - a_n \implies a_{n+1} = a_n + 2(n + 1)[/tex]
Then
[tex]a_{n+1} = (a_{n-1} + 2n) + 2(n+1) \\ ~~~~~~~= a_{n-1} + 2 ((n+1) + n)[/tex]
[tex]a_{n+1} = (a_{n-2} + 2(n-1)) + 2((n+1)+n) \\ ~~~~~~~ = a_{n-2} + 2 ((n+1) + n + (n-1))[/tex]
[tex]a_{n+1} = (a_{n-3} + 2(n-2)) + 2((n+1)+n+(n-1)) \\ ~~~~~~~= a_{n-3} + 2 ((n+1) + n + (n-1) + (n-2))[/tex]
and so on down to
[tex]a_{n+1} = a_1 + 2 \displaystyle \sum_{k=2}^{n+1} k = 2 + 2 \times \frac{n(n+3)}2[/tex]
[tex]\implies a_{n+1} = n^2 + 3n + 2 \implies \boxed{a_n = n^2 + n}[/tex]

What is the median of this data set?
Answer:
$3.50
Step-by-step explanation:
add up all the x's and distribute them starting from the outside until you get to the middle. if there is an odd number of x's (which there isn't), the last x to be placed will be on the spot that is the median. If there is an even number of x's, and they both land on the same spot, that spot will be the median, and if they are next to each other, the median will be between them.

Write the equation of the given line in slope-intercept form
Answer:
y = -3x -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
We are given a line on a coordinate grid, with 2 marked points, (-1, 2) and (1, -4)
We can use these points to help find the equation of the line, which we can write in slope-intercept form
Slope-intercept form is given as y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
First, we need to find the slope of the line
The formula for the slope calculated from 2 points is [tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex], where [tex](x_1, y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2, y_2)[/tex] are points
We have everything we need to find the slope, but let's label the values of the points to help avoid confusion.
[tex]x_1=-1\\y_1=2\\x_2=1\\y_2=-4[/tex]
Now substitute these values into the formula to find the slope
m=[tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
m=[tex]\frac{-4-2}{1--1}[/tex]
Simplify
m=[tex]\frac{-4-2}{1+1}[/tex]
m=[tex]\frac{-6}{2}[/tex]
Divide
m= -3
The slope of the line is -3
We can substitute this into the formula.
Here's our line so far:
y = -3x + b
Now we need to find b
As the equation passes through the points (-1, 2) and (1, -4), we can use either one to find the value of b
Taking (-1, 2) for example:
Substitute -1 as x and 2 as y.
2 = -3(-1) + b
multiply
2 = 3 + b
Subtract 3 from both sides
-1 = b
Substitute -1 as b.
y = -3x - 1
Hope this helps!

How to tell the difference between permutation and combination?.
Answer:
Permutation is an arrangement of things where order of arrangement matters. The position of each thing in a permutation matters. Thus, Permutation can be associated with Position.
Combination is grouping/selection of things where order does not matter. Permutation can be considered as an ordered combination.

Answer:
x ≈ 14.4 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
the third angle of the triangle = 180° - 40° - 46° = 94°
Using the Sine rule in the triangle
[tex]\frac{x}{sin46}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{20}{sin94}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )
x × sin94° = 20 × sin46° ( divide both sides by sin94° )
x = [tex]\frac{20sin46}{sin94}[/tex] ≈ 14.4 cm ( to the nearest tenth )
Answer:
14 cm (rounded to nearest whole number)
Step-by-step explanation:
Law of Sine:
[tex]\displaystyle \large{\dfrac{\sin A}{a} = \dfrac{\sin B}{b} = \dfrac{\sin C}{c} = 2R}[/tex]
a,b,c are side lengths.R is radius so 2R is diameter.A,B,C are angles.Given angles are:
40°, 46°Definition of Euclidean Triangle:
Sum of three interior angles equals 180°Find another angle:
40°+46°+B = 180°86+B = 180B = 180-86B = 94°So another angle is 94°.
To find:
Value of xDetermine:
A = 46°a = x cmB = 94°b = 20 cmTherefore:
[tex]\displaystyle \large{\dfrac{\sin 46^{\circ}}{x} = \dfrac{\sin 94^{\circ}}{20}}[/tex]
Multiply both sides by 20x:
[tex]\displaystyle \large{\dfrac{\sin 46^{\circ}}{x} \cdot 20x = \dfrac{\sin 94^{\circ}}{20} \cdot 20x}\\\displaystyle \large{20\sin 46^{\circ}= x\sin 94^{\circ}}[/tex]
Divide both sides by [tex]\displaystyle \large{\sin 94^{\circ}}[/tex]:
[tex]\displaystyle \large{\dfrac{20\sin 46^{\circ}}{\sin 94^{\circ}} = \dfrac{x\sin 94^{\circ}}{\sin 94^{\circ}}}\\\displaystyle \large{\dfrac{20\sin 46^{\circ}}{\sin 94^{\circ}} = x}[/tex]
Evaluate the expression, hence:
[tex]\displaystyle \large{x = 14.42...}[/tex]
Round to nearest whole number:
[tex]\displaystyle \large{x = 14}[/tex]
Therefore, the value of x is 14 cm.
Find the equation of the line shown
Answer:
[tex]y=-\frac{1}{4}x+2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We will use the point slope formula: [tex]y=mx+b[/tex]
We will start by finding the slope([tex]m[/tex]).
The formula for slope is
[tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}[/tex]
So if we just choose 2 random points on the line:
I choose (0,2) and (4,1), we get:
[tex]\frac{1-2}{4-0} = \frac{-1}{4}[/tex]
That's our slope.
Next we need to find the y-intercept([tex]b[/tex]). We can find that by looking at the graph. It is where x=0. So in this case y=2 when x=0.
So in point-slope form the equation is:
[tex]y=-\frac{1}{4}x+2[/tex]

Pooja and Amit are playing a card game with a standard 52 card deck. Pooja will draw a card. If the card she draws is a face card (a jack, queen, or king), she will win $6. If Pooja draws an ace, she will win $4. If any other card is drawn, she will lose $2. The image below shows a standard deck of playing cards.
What is Pooja's expected value of playing this game?
The probability helps us to know the chances of an event occurring. Pooja's expected value of playing this game is 0.3077.
What is Probability?The probability helps us to know the chances of an event occurring.
[tex]\rm Probability=\dfrac{Desired\ Outcomes}{Total\ Number\ of\ outcomes\ possible}[/tex]
There are 12 face cards, therefore, the probability of the getting a face card can be written as,
[tex]\text{Probability of face card }= \dfrac{12}{52} = 0.2308[/tex]
Also, the winning prize for drawing a face card is $6. Therefore, the expected value will be,
[tex]\text{Expected Value(Face)} = \$6 \times 0.2308= $1.3846[/tex]
There are 4 ace cards, therefore, the probability of the getting an ace card can be written as,
[tex]\text{Probability of ace card }= \dfrac{4}{52} = \dfrac{1}{13} = 0.077[/tex]
Also, the winning prize for drawing an ace card is $4. Therefore, the expected value will be,
[tex]\text{Expected Value(Ace)} = \$4 \times 0.077 = $0.3077[/tex]
There are 36 normal cards, therefore, the probability of the getting a normal card can be written as,
[tex]\text{Probability of normal card }= \dfrac{36}{52} = 0.6923[/tex]
Also, the losing prize for drawing a normal card is -$2. Therefore, the expected value will be,
[tex]\text{Expected Value(Normal)} = (-\$2) \times 0.6923 = -$1.3846[/tex]
Thus, Pooja's expected value of playing this game can be written as,
[tex]\rm Expected\ Value = 1.3846 + 0.3077-1.3846 = 0.3077[/tex]
Hence, Pooja's expected value of playing this game is 0.3077.

a bug population doubles every 5 days. If you start with 6 bugs, how many bugs will there be in 35 days
Answer:
768 bugs
Step-by-step explanation:
You can rewrite this problem as a function as time where the bug population is f(x), and x is the number of days since the start.
f(x)=6*2^(x/5)
Here, the 6 represents the number of bugs that you start with, the two shows that they double every day, and the /5 shows that they double every 5 days.
By plugging in 35, you get 6*2^7, which is 768.
