The answer to the question
Answer:
Axis of Symmetry: x = -4
Vertex: (-4, 54)
Step-by-step explanation:
We use a graphing calc.
Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
For negative numbers, the larger the number is the smaller its value is. For example -18 is greater than -18.5. This is because -18 is closer to 0 than -18.5 is. If you were to plot -18 and -18.5 on a number line you would see that -18 is closer to 0.
Answer:
The first term of the sequence is -120.
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the "nth" term of a geometric sequence is shown below:
an = a0*r^(n-1)
Where an is the nth term, r is the ratio and n is the position of the term on the sequence. For this problem we want to find what is the initial term, a0, so we will isolate it in the formula as shown below:
a0*r^(n-1) = an
a0 = an/[r^(n-1)]
We then apply the data given to us
a0 = 31.45728/[-0.8^(7-1)]
a0 = 31.45728/[-0.8^6] =31.45728 /-0.262144= -120
The first term of the sequence is -120.
