Luis uses cubes to represent each term of a pattern based on a recursive function. The recursive function defined is f(n + 1) = f(n) + 4, where n is an integer and n ≥ 2. The number of cubes used in each of the first two figures is shown below. How many cubes does Luis use in the third, fourth, and fifth figures of the pattern? Fill in the blanks.

It's 17, 21, and 25

Step-by-step explanation: hope it helps ^w^

-12 > a

step-by-step explanation:

-11 > 1 + a

subtract 1 from each side

-11-1 > 1-1+a

-12 > a

34.5 cm

step-by-step explanation:

generally for a circular segment of angle, θ° and radius r

arc length

= (θ/360) x circumference

= (θ/360) x 2πr

in our case, θ = 60°, π=3.142 and r = 33 cm

substitute into above formula

arc length

= (60/360) x 2(3.142)( 33) = 34.5 cm
