Write the first five terms of each of the following recursively defined sequences:
an+1 = 2(an)^2, a1 =x, where x is a real number write each term in the form kxn.

See below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

a1 = x

a2 = 2(a1)^2 = 2x^2

a3 = 2(a2)^2 = 2(2x^2)2 = 2(4x^4) = 8x^4

a4 = 2(a3)^2 = 2(8x^4)^2 = 128x^8

a5 = 2(a4)^2 = 2(128x^8)^2 = 32768x^16.

step-by-step explanation:

one of the most important purposes of surface treatment is to alter surface properties according to the requirement of specific applications. for example, hydrophobic coating has been utilized on windshield and eyeglasses. gold atom monolayer on substrate has become a popular surface bioconjugation strategy.  

in 2010, the population of the state of california is 37.29 × 10⁶

step-by-step explanation:

population of los angeles = 3.79 × 10⁶

population of california = 9.84 × population of los angeles

                                        = 9.84 × 3.79 × 10⁶

                                        = 37.2936 × 10⁶

                                        = 37.29 × 10⁶

∴ in 2010, the population of the state of california is 37.29 × 10⁶
