Answer:

Correct option is:

multiply the previous term by 2; –80, –160

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a pattern:

–5, –10, –20, –40, . . .

- 10= -5×2

-20= -10×2

-40= -20×2

Hence, next term is obtained by multiplying the previous term by 2

Next term= -40×2= -80

Next term= -80×2= -160

Hence,

Pattern is: multiply the previous term by 2

Next two numbers in  the pattern are: –80, –160

Gemiola [76]
This problem can be solved using the concepts of permutation.

Zzyzx is the word. It has five letters. It asked as to how many five-letter arrangements of the letters in the English alphabet follow Zzyzx alphabetically.

Take note: <span>alphabetically
</span>
The two remaining five-letter after Zzyzx are Zzyzy and Zzyzz.
The remaining arrangements are of the form Zzz _ _.
There are 26 × 26 = 676 ways to fill in the last two letters, so following Zzyzx alphabetically, there are 2 + 676 = 678 arrangements.

Mai will rent a car for the weekend. She can choose one of two plans. The first plan has an initial fee of $59.96 and costs an a
juin [17]

Answer:

600 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

So basically we can write both plans as linear functions:

F(x) = $59.96+$0.14 . x

S(x) = $71.96+$0.12 . x

Where F(x) is the first plan, S(x) is the second one and X are the miles driven.

To know how many miles does Mai need to drive for the two plans to cost the same, we equalize both equations and isolate x.

F(x) = S (x)

$59.96+$0.14.x = $71.96+$0.12.x \\0.14x-0.12x=71.96-59.96\\0.02x=12\\x=12 : 0.02\\x= 600

Mai has to drive 600 miles for the two plans to cost the same-

1.2million users of social media via mobile devices were added each day. How many users added on an average each second
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer: 14 new users are added per second

Step-by-step explanation:

1,200,000/24 = 50000

50000/60 = 833.333333333

833.333333333/60 = 13.8888888889

then round because it said on average

so if we round 13.8888888889 we get 14

so on average 14 new users are added per second.

4x - Зу = -3<br> 4x + y = 17<br> Explain how as well
Jobisdone [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

I will solve your system by substitution.

(You can also solve this system by elimination.)

4x+y=17;4x−3y=−3

Step: Solve4x+y=17for y:

4x+y+−4x=17+−4x(Add -4x to both sides)

y=−4x+17

Step: Substitute−4x+17foryin4x−3y=−3:

4x−3y=−3

4x−3(−4x+17)=−3

16x−51=−3(Simplify both sides of the equation)

16x−51+51=−3+51(Add 51 to both sides)

16x=48

16/x = 48/16

(Divide both sides by 16)

x=3

Step: Substitute 3 for x in y=−4x+17:

y=−4x+17

y=(−4)(3)+17

y=5(Simplify both sides of the equation)

Answer:

x=3 and y=5
