Helen [10]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x= 1/256

Step-by-step explanation:

1. multiply both sides by 8x (answer: -5= 8x*-160)

2. divide both sides by -160 (answer: -5/-160 or 1/32 =8x)

3. divide both sides by 8 (answer: 1/256 = x

4. check your answer: -5/(8*1/256)= -160

Find the 14th term of the geometric sequence 2, 6, 18,
butalik [34]

The geometric sequence is starting with 2 and multiplying by 3 every time. We can get the rule of this sequence by...

If 2 is a_0, 6 is a_1, 18 is a_2, etc.

a_n=2*3^n

For the 14th term, which is a_13, the value is 2*3^13.

Using a calculator because I'm too lazy to calculate 3^13 sorry, we can get.

write an equation in slop-intercept form for a line that is perpendicular to the line y= -5x-3 and has a y-intercept of 6.
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

The equation of the line would be y = 1/5x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

First, to find the slope of a perpendicular line, you need to find the opposite and reciprocal of the original slope. Since the original is -5, we first change the sign (which makes it just 5). Now we take that 5 and flip it to get 1/5.

Now that we have the slope as 1/5, we can use that and the intercept in slope-intercept form to get the equation.

y = mx + b

y = 1/5x + 6
