Part 1
1) The positive integers -----------> D.) The natural numbers
2.) An ordering of quantities -----------> B.) A sequence
3.) 2, 4, 8, 16, . . ., 256 -----------> A.) An example of a finite sequence
4.) 1, 3, 5, 7, . . . -----------> E.) An example of an infinite sequence
5.) No first term is available -----------> C.) The reason the numbers . . . -4, -2, 0, 2, 4, . . . are not a sequence
Part 2
[tex]a_n=n^2+2\\ a_1=1+2=3\\ a_2=4+2=6\\ a_3=9+2=11\\ a_4=16+2=18\\ a_5=25+2=27 [/tex]
The answers is A.
Part 3
[tex]a_n=-1(\frac{1}{3})^{n-1} \\ a_1=-1(\frac{1}{3})^{1-1}=-1\\ a_2=-1(\frac{1}{3})^{2-1}=-\frac{1}{3}\\ a_3=-1(\frac{1}{3})^{3-1}=--\frac{1}{9}\\ a_4=-1(\frac{1}{3})^{4-1}=--\frac{1}{27}\\ a_5=-1(\frac{1}{3})^{5-1}=--\frac{1}{81}\\ [/tex]
The answers is B.
Part 4
The pattern in this sequence is:
[tex]a_n=2a^nb^{n-1}[/tex]
Let's list first six terms:
[tex]a_n=2a^nb^{n-1}\\ a_1=2a^1b^0=2a\\ a_2=2a^2b^1=2a^2b\\ a_3=2a^3b^2\\ a_4=2a^4b^3\\ a_5=2a^5b^4\\ a_6=2a^6b^5\\[/tex]
This is a infinite sequence. The patern is obvious and we could find any term within the sequence.
