The first term in an arithmetic sequence is 5. The third term in the sequence is -1. The tenth term in the sequence is -22. Xavier said that the recursive formula for a sequence a(n)=an-1-3 could be described as, “to find the next term of the sequence, add -3 to the previous term.” Do you agree or disagree that this statement is equivalent to the explicit formula a(n)=-3n-12? Explain.

It says factor each expression 49x-28?

Write an inequality for this description. - one fourth of the opposite of the difference of five and a number is less than twenty.

Data for the height of a model rocket launch in the air over time are shown in the table. darryl predicted that the height of the rocket at 8 seconds would be about 93 meters. did darryl make a good prediction? yes, the data are best modeled by a quadratic function. the value of the function at 8 seconds is about 93 meters. yes, the data are best modeled by a linear function. the first differences are constant, so about 93 meters at 8 seconds is reasonable. no, the data are exponential. a better prediction is 150 meters. no, the data are best modeled by a cubic function. a better prediction is 100 meters.
