-4(9)(-5) = (-36)(-5) because -4(9) = -36. (-36)(-5) = 180
8f³g-12f⁴g² = 4f³g (2 - 3fg)
Hope it helps

First term = a = 2
Problem
Find the nth term
tn = (-1 )^(n -1) * (a)^n answer or
tn = (-1)^(n - 1) * 2^n
where a is defined as the first term (it usually is given that designation).
Try a few to make sure the formula is correct
<em>n = 1</em>
t1 = (-1)^(1 - 1) * 2^1
t1 = (-1)^0 * 2
t1 = 1 * 2 = 2
<em>n =2</em>
t2 = (-1)^(2 - 1) * 2^2 = (-1)^1 * 4 = -4
Answer:
- maximum increase: 90°
- maximum decrease: -90°
- zero change: 0°
Step-by-step explanation:
A line or ray pointing straight upward will be pointing in the direction of maximum increase. It will make an angle of 90° with respect to the x-axis.
A line or ray pointing straight downward will be pointing in the direction of maximum decrease. It will make an angle of -90° with respect to the x-axis.
A horizontal line will be associated with zero change. It makes an angle of 0° with respect to the x-axis.
