This response should be given, based on the work you did in completing the assignment, before you look at the given solution.

014. `query 14

*********************************************

Question: `qQuery two examples and a picture ...explain the statement 'the rate of change of a quadratic function changes at a constant rate'

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your solution:

As the curve is decreasing the slope is also decreasing. As the curve is increasing the slope is increasing.

.............................................

Given Solution:

`a** We can calculate the rates of change of a quadratic function based on a series of consecutive intervals of constant

length. We find that these rates change from interval to interval, and always by the same amount. Since the rates of

change always change by the same amount, they are changing at a constant rate. **

Question: `qexplain how to get the first few members of a sequence from its recurrence relation

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your solution:

Once you have the original member you can substitute it back into the statement to get the next member. You continue this until you have the number of members you need.

.............................................

Given Solution:

`a** We let n be the first integer for which the value a(n) is not given, and we substitute this integer into the recurrence

relation to evaluate a(n) for this 'new' integer, using values of a(n) for previous integers. If this is not possible then we

have not been given enough information to evaluate the sequence.

We then substitute the next integer and use values of a(n) for previous integers.

We continue this process as long as necessary to get the results we need. **
