Nick has box brads. he uses 4 brads for the first project. nick let’s b represent the original number of brads and finds that for the second project, the number of brads he uses is 8 more than half the difference of b and 4. write an expression to represent the number of brads he uses for the second project.

Which equation is y = -6x2 + 3x + 2 rewritten in vertex form?

Use the ratio test to determine whether ∑n=14∞n+2n! converges or diverges. (a) find the ratio of successive terms. write your answer as a fully simplified fraction. for n≥14, limn→∞∣∣∣an+1an∣∣∣=limn→∞.
