Hello,

$a_{1}=10^{-4}$
$a_{2}=10^{-4}*15$
$a_{3}=10^{-4}*15^2$

$a_{n}=10^{-4}*15^{n-1}$

solve the equation using inverse operations check your solutions in your final answer include all of your work 5 - 2x^2 = -15

Ronch [10]

Answer:

x = ± $\sqrt{10}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

5 - 2x² = - 15 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

- 2x² = - 20 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

x² = 10 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = ± $\sqrt{10}$

Police can estimate the speed of a vehicle before the brakes are applied using the formula 0.75d=(s^2)/(30.25) where s is the sp

Jobisdone [24]

The answer is C.

$0.75(150) = \frac{ s^{2}}{30.25}$

$112.5 * 30.25 = s^{2}$

$3413.125 = s^{2}$

$s = 58.422$

F(x)= -2x + 2; Find f(5)

zhuklara [117]

If f(x) = -2x + 2, f(5) can be found by substituting in the value 5 for x in the equation:

f(5) = - 2(5) + 2

Our first step in simplifying this expression is to perform the multiplication as outlined by the order of operations (PEMDAS).

f(5) = -10 + 2

Finally, we must get our final answer by adding together the remaining terms.

f(5) = -8

Hope this helps!
