y=-x-5. you just need to add 1 to another side to get rid of 1 from the left side

Answer:

y = -x -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that the slope-intercept form is: y = mx + b

Isolate the b. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Add 1 to both sides

y - 1 (+1) = -x - 6 (+1)

y = -x - 6 + 1

y = -x - 5

What is the first term in a geometric sequence if the common ratio is − 2 and the sum of the first six terms is −105?

Serggg [28]

$\bf \qquad \qquad \textit{sum of a finite geometric sequence}
\\\\
S_n=\sum\limits_{i=1}^{n}\ a_1\cdot r^{i-1}\implies S_n=a_1\left( \cfrac{1-r^n}{1-r} \right)\quad 
\begin{cases}
n=n^{th}\ term\\
a_1=\textit{first term's value}\\
r=\textit{common ratio}\\
----------\\
r=-2\\
n=6\\
S_6=-105
\end{cases}$

$\bf -105=a_1\left( \cfrac{1-(-2)^6}{1-(-2)} \right)\implies -105=a_1\left( \cfrac{1-(64)}{1+2} \right)
\\\\\\
-105=a_1\left( \cfrac{-63}{3} \right)\implies -105=a_1(-21)
\\\\\\
\cfrac{-105}{-21}=a_1\implies 5=a_1$

The distance from the ground of a person riding on a Ferris wheel can be modeled by the equation d equals 20 times the sine of t

kodGreya [7K]

We have the function d, representing the distance from the ground of a person riding on a Ferris wheel:

$d(t)=20\sin (\frac{\pi}{30}t)+10$

If we consider the position of the person at t = 0, which is:

$d(0)=20\sin (\frac{\pi}{30}\cdot0)+10=20\cdot0+10=10$

This position, for t = 0, will be the same position as when the argument of the sine function is equal to 2π, which is equivalent to one cycle of the wheel. Then, we can find the value of t:

$\begin{gathered} \sin (\frac{\pi}{30}t)=\sin (2\pi) \\ \frac{\pi}{30}\cdot t=2\pi \\ t=2\pi\cdot\frac{30}{\pi} \\ t=60 \end{gathered}$

Then, the wheel will repeat its position after t = 60 seconds.

Answer: 60 seconds.

the table shows the name of each volunteer and the height of the baby elephant each volunteer measured. which volunteer measured

daser333 [38]

So in order to compare, the measurements have to same units. So lets convert everything to feet.

George 2 yds = 6 ft Kelsey 68 inches = 5 ft 8"

Mariah 5 feet Brian 5 ft 10 "

George measured the tallest at 6'

Hope this helped.

Could someone help me with this?

Distributive property was the first property used in STEP 1, where -4 was distributed to -3x+ 2 resulting in the equation in STEP 1. Next in STEP 2, commutative property of addition no matter how 12x and 6x are arranged, when you add them together the result will be the same.
*Take note that 12x and 6x are put together because they are like terms.

For Steps 3 and 4, you will see that the addition property of equality was used in STEP 3. To keep the equation equal, you will add the same number on both sides.

STEP 4 uses Division property of Equality. Like Step 3, to keep both sides of the equation equal, you must divide both sides with the same number. It keeps the statement true by doing so.

STEP 4 and 5 uses transitive property if you examine both as a whole.
Transitive property assumes that if a = b and b = c, then a = c

If 18/18 (a) = 1 (b), and x (c) = 18/18(a) then, x (c) = 1 (b).
