Recall that sequences can also be described by using recursive definitions. When a sequence is define
recursively, terms are found by operations on previous terms.
Exercise #1: A sequence is defined by the recursive formula: f(n)= f(n-1)+5 with f(1)=-2.

Segment xy is dilated through point m with a scale factor of 2. which segment shows the correct result of the dilation

If f(x) = 4x – 3 and g(x) = 8x + 2, find each function value a. f[g(3)] b. g[f(5)] c. g{f[g(-4)]}

The first few steps in solving the quadratic equation 9x2 + 49x = 22 ? 5x by completing the square are shown. 9x2 + 49x = 22 ? 5x 9x2 + 54x = 22 9(x2 + 6x) = 22 which is the best step to do next to solve the equation by completing the square? 9(x2 + 6x + 3) = 25 9(x2 + 6x + 3) = 49 9(x2 + 6x + 9) = 31 9(x2 + 6x + 9) = 103
