Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate the first 3 terms substitute n = 1, 2, 3 into the n th term rule
= (3 × 1) + 2 = 3 + 2 = 5
= (3 × 2) + 2 = 6 + 2 = 8
= (3 × 3) + 2 = 9 + 2 = 11
------------------------------------------------------------------
substitute n = 10 into the n th term rule
= (3 × 10) + 2 = 30 + 2 = 32
Answer:
C) They are perpendicular lines.
Step-by-step explanation:
We first need to find the slope of the graph of the lines passing through these points using:

The slope of the line that passes through (−12, 15) and (4, −5) is


The slope of the line going through (−8, −9) and (16, 21) is



The product of the two slopes is

Since

the two lines are perpendicular.
Answer: C) Cannot be done
Taking the square root of a negative number is not possible unless you involve complex numbers. If your teacher has not introduced that topic yet, then you just simply say "cannot be done" or something along those lines.
Step-by-step explanation:
the introduction of a fraction tells us that we are dealing with multiplications, and therefore a geometric sequence (where every new term is created by multiplying the previous term by a constant factor, the ratio r).
I think your teacher made a mistake, or you made one when typing the question in here.
there is no factor r that creates
15×r = 9
and
9×r = 5/27
it would mean that
15 × r² = 5/27
r² = 5/27 / 15 = 5/27 × 1/15 = 5/405 = 1/81
r = 1/9
but 15 × 1/9 = 5 × 1/3 = 5/3 is NOT 9
and 9 × 1/9 = 9/9 = 1 is NOT 5/27
so, this can't be right.
on the other hand
15 × r = 9
r = 9/15 = 3/5
and then
9 × 3/5 = 27/5
so, either the sequence should have been
15, 5/3, 5/27
or (and I suspect this to be true)
15, 9, 27/5
under that assumption we have
s1 = 15
r = 3/5
sn = sn-1 × r = s1 × r^(n-1) = 15 × (3/5)^(n-1)
s10 = 15 × (3/5)⁹ = 15 × 19683/1953125 =
= 3 × 19683/390625 = 59049/390625 =
= 0.15116544 ≈ 0.151
