It will be a negative.
for an example: -20 for x would mqke 2x + 1 into -39 and 8x + 5 into -155. that's 116 apart, so maybe -2(8) + 5 = -11
-2(2) + 1 = -3
but that's only 8 apart, so it'd be higher.
-4(2) + 1 = -7
-4(8) + 5 = -27
BOOM
Tadaaaa,
You probably thought positive, but sometimes it's negative, you know what I mean?
Answer:
The explicit form is 
Step-by-step explanation:
The explicit form of a geometric sequence is given by:
where an is the nth term, a is the first term of the sequence and r is the common ratio.
In this case:
a=162
The value of the common ratio is obtained by dividing one term by the previous term.
For the first and second terms:
108/162=2/3
For the second and third terms (In order to prove that 2/3 is the common ratio)
72/108=2/3
Therefore:
r=2/3
Replacing a and r in the formula:
Answer:
8/27 cups
Step-by-step explanation:
Nima uses 2/3 cups of peanuts to make a recipe of 2 1/4 = 9/4 cups of trail mix. If we want to find how many cups of peanuts are there per cup of trail mix, we can do a rule of three:
If 9/4 cups of trail mix need 2/3 cups of peanuts, 1 cup of trail mix need X cups of peanuts:
9/4 cups of trail mix -> 2/3 cups of peanuts
1 cup of trail mix -> X cups of peanuts
9/4 / 1 = 2/3 / X
9/4 = 2/(3*X)
3*X*9 = 4*2
27*X = 8
X = 8/27 cups

Answer:
D=90° E=103° F=77°
Step-by-step explanation:
D+90°=180°
D=90°
F+103°=180°
F=77°
E + F=180°
E=103°
