Find Pk + 1 if
Pk = 7 + 13 + 19 + ...+[6(k - 1)+1] + (6k + 1)
7 + 13 + 19 + …+[6(k - 1) + 1] + (6k + 1) + [6(k + 1) + 1]
8 + 14 + 20 + …+[7(k - 1) + 1] + (7k + 1)
7 + 13 + 19 + …+(6k + 1)
7 + 13 + 19 + ...+[6(k - 1) + 1] + (6k7 +1) + (6k + 2)
answer:D
What is the first step when writing a proof using mathematical induction?
Assume that formula is true for Pk.
Find Pk + 1.
Verify formula is true for P1.
Find the sum of the integers.
answer :c
Which of the following shows the correct first step to prove the following by mathematical induction?
3 + 11 + 19 + 27 + … + (8n - 5) = n(4n - 1)
3 + 11 + 19 + 27 + … + (8 • 1 - 5) = 1(4 • 1 - 1)
8 • 1 - 5 = 1(4 • 1 - 1)
3 + 11 + 19 + 27 + … + (8k - 5) = k(4k - 1)
3 + 11 + 19 + 27 + … + (8k - 5) + [8(k + 1) - 5] = (k + 1)[4(k + 1) - 1]

answer:a
Find first differences for the sequence in order from a1 to a5. Determine whether or not the series is quadratic or not.
-1, -3, -1, 5, 15
2, 2, 6, 10; not quadratic
2, 2, 6, 10; quadratic
-2, 2, 6, 10; not quadratic
-2, 2, 6, 10; quadratic
answer: d
Find a quadratic model for the sequence.
-4, -4, -3, -1, 2
________________________________________
y = 0.5x2 - 0.5x - 4
y = 0.5x2 - 1.5x - 3
y = 4.5x2 - 21.5x+21
y = -4.5x2 + 21.4x - 21
