Which question in order for me 2 answer
Answer:
C > 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
given sequence, -16; -9; -2: _
first term(a)=-16
common difference(d)=-9-(-16)=7
next term is 4
so
4th term=a+(n-1)d
=-16+(4-1)7=-16+21=5
<u>c.5</u>
If the discriminant b^2-4ac is 0, then you have TWO EQUAL, REAL ROOTS.
If you're given the x-intercepts, you can determine the factors of the polynomial as follows: Take -3, change the sign and write (x+3). Take 5, change the sign and write (x-5). Then the eq'n of the parabola is
f(x) = (x+3)(x-5) = x^2 - 2x -15, in which a=1, b = -2 and c= -15.
You can find the x-coordinate of the vertex, which is also the equation of the axis of symmetry, using
x= -b / (2a). Here, x = -(-2) / (2[1]), or x = 1
Find the y-coordinate by subbing 1 for x in the equation above:
y = (1)^2 - 2(1) - 15 = 1 - 2 - 15 = -16
The vertex is at (1, -16) and the equation of the axis of symm. is x = 1.
That's a BIG increase in price! What cost $65 yesterday is now $156. What was the increase? $156 - $65 = $91.
Next: $91 is what fraction of $65? Divide. Answer: 1.4.
Finally, multiply this last result by 100%: 140% (answer)
