Y = x^2 - 6y + 8
y = (x - 3)^2 - 9 + 8
y = (x -3 )^2 - 1
vertex is at ( 3, -1)
6/1
because if you divide 6 by 1 you get 6
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
hope u got it.
55/78
= (55*(50/39)) / (78*(50/39))
= 70.(512820)/ 100
= 0.7(051282)
The final answer is 0.7(051282)~
Answer: 1,953,125
This is one single value and it is just a bit under 2 million.
Or more accurately, it's a bit over 1.9 million.
===========================================================
Explanation:
- a = 5 = first term
- r = -5 = common ratio
Note that dividing any term by its previous term gets us the common ratio
- r = term2/term1 = -25/5 = -5
- r = term3/term2 = 125/(-5) = -5
The r value must stay the same the entire time, or else the sequence isn't geometric.
The nth term of any geometric sequence is a*(r)^(n-1). With the 'a' and 'r' values we found, we update that to 5(-5)^(n-1)
-----------------
To verify that is the correct nth term expression, plug in various values of n to compare it with the given sequence.
If we tried n = 2 for instance, then we find the 2nd term is
5(-5)^(n-1) = 5(-5)^(2-1) = -25
which matches what your teacher gave you. I'll let you verify the other terms.
-----------------
The last thing we need to do is plug in n = 9 and simplify
5(-5)^(n-1)
5(-5)^(9-1)
5(-5)^8
5(390625)
1,953,125 this is one single value (rather than 3 separate values)
