1. if the fibonacci sequence, 1 1 2 3 5..., is continued to the left of 0, it (A) is the same as to the right of 0
(B) is the same as to the right of 0, but each number is negative
(C) terminates
(D) none of the above

2. sqrt(a*sqrt(a*sqrt(a*sqrt(a*... equals

thoh13's quiz:

[size=8]1. D - It is the same as to the right of 0, but the signs alternate (..., 5, -3, 2, -1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, ...)

2. A - Let x = the expression. Then x^2 = a*x; so x = a.

3. B - (2007 + 20007) * (20007 - 2007 + 1) / 2 = 198,137,007[/size]

You are not kidding!!!


1 = b.

2 = b. sqrt(a)


3 = b. In general to find the sum of all the numbers from 1 to N:

1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + . . . . + N = (1 + N)*(N/2)

That is "1 plus N quantity times N divided by 2."
