005 Sample Final A, Question 21

Question Find the sum

$5+9+13+\cdots +49$

Final Answers
a) False. Nothing in the definition of a geometric sequence requires the common ratio to be always positive. For example, $a_{n}=(-a)^{n}$
b) False. Linear systems only have a solution if the lines intersect. So y = x and y = x + 1 will never intersect because they are parallel.
c) False. $y=x^{2}$ does not have an inverse.
d) True. Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle cos^2(x) - cos(x) = 0} has multiple solutions.
e) True.
f) False.
