Subtract 5 from both sides
a/-8 = 4/7 - 5

simplify 4/7 - 5 to 31/-7
a/-8 = 31/-7

multiply both sides by 8 
-a = 31/-7 x 8

simplify 31/7 x 8 to 248/7
-a = 248/7

multiply both sides by -1.
The answer is a = 248/7

The words are the explanations of the steps and the dark bolded words are the work shown for each step.

A)clara believes the sequence 3,9,27,81,243 is arithmetic. Do you agree with clara?Explain your reasoning.
allsm [11]
This is NOT an arithmetic sequence because there is no common difference.  It is a geometric sequence because there is a common ratio.  Meaning that each term is a constant ratio or multiple of the previous term.  The recursive rule for this geometric sequence is:

a(n)=3*a(n-1), a(1)=3

Can someone help me understand the concept of finding the domain and range on a graph. I don’t understand it! Someone help me
juin [17]

Answer:

The Domain is where the line on your graph crosses the X axis.

The Range us where the line on your graph crosses the Y axis

And a arrow means it goes Into infinity

Step-by-step explanation:

Say you Have a line, it crosses the X axis at -3, your Domain would be -3!

Now say this line crosses the Y axis at -6, Your Range would be -6!

And now say if instead of the line ending at a dot after crossing -6 It has a arrow, that means you have infinity, Making your range instead of -6 it's be infinity! (If the arrow points up it's positive infinity, If the arrow points down it's negative infinity)

So for the first 2 numbers your answer would be [-3,-6] and in you have infinity itd be [-3, infinity) parenthesis isn't a error btw if you still don't get it I can just reply with a sheet I have on it
