This is a geometric series with first term 2 and common ratio -4. The general term of such a series (an) in terms of the first term (a1) and common rato (r) is written as
  an = a1*r^(n-1)

The sum is the sum of such terms.
sum=\sum\limits_{n=1}^{\infty}{2(-4)^{(n-1)}}

Which statement is true about the purpose of trend lines in scatterplots? A trend line must pass through the largest data point.
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

a trend line can be used to make predictions in real-world situations (the third option)

Explanation:

the first & second options are wrong because it is not a requirement for a trend line to pass through any given data point.

the fourth option is wrong because a trend line shows the general upward/downward trend of the data, and may not necessarily touch all of the data points.

the third option is correct because a trend line helps to roughly estimate the trend (hence the name) of the graph, which allows us to make predictions in real-world situations.

i hope this helps! :D

4/5w-12=2/3w<br> what is the step by step answer to those equation?
Mariulka [41]
Kulay, there is no such thing as a "step by step answer" here.  You seem to want a "step by step solution."

I must assume that by 4/5 you actually meant (4/5) and that by 2/3 you meant (2/3).  Then your equation becomes:

(4/5)w - 12 = (2/3)w. 

The LCD here is 5*3, or 15, so mult. every term by 15:

12w - 180 = 10w.   
Add 180 to both sides, obtaining 12 w - 180 + 180 = 10w + 180.     

Then 12w = 10w + 180.  Simplifying, 2w = 180.    What is w?
