An equivalent expression would be 6(8x - 5)
X^2+ (y+8)^2 = 81.....this is C.
X^2 + y^2 + 16y +64=81 so x^2 + y^2 + 16y = 17.....this is D.
So I’d say C and D are correct
-13 and -14
They both are consecutive negative integers that multiply to 182.
I guess you are asking to find the sum of the first 8 terms. If so, then:
Sum = a₁(1-rⁿ)/(1-r), where a₁ is the 1st term, r=common ratio and n=number of terms:
the 1st term a₁ =3
common ratio r = - 2 (since -6/3 = - 2, and 12/-6 = - 2, etc.)
Sum = 3[(1- (-2)⁸]/(1-2) = 3(1- 256)/(1/2)
Sum = -1530
62.069% is what i thank it is
