The general term of an infinite sequence 9, 4, -1, -6,... is \(u_{r} = ar + b\). Find the values of a and b.

If \(\log_{3}a - 2 = 3\log_{3}b\), express a in terms of b.

Given that \(f(x) = 3x^{2} - 12x + 12\) and \(f(x) = 3\), find the values of x.

A binary operation * is defined on the set of real numbers, by \(a * b = \frac{a}{b} + \frac{b}{a}\). If \((\sqrt{x} + 1) * (\sqrt{x} - 1) = 4\), find the va...
