Answer:

Correct answer is third from the top an = 27 · (1/3)∧(n-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given geometric sequence : 27, 9, 3, 1,....

First term a1= 27, second term a2= 9, third term a3= 3 etc...

Standard form of the n-th term is

an = a1 · q∧(n-1)

We will find quotient when we divide second term with first and third with second

q = a2/a1 = a3/a2 = 9/27 = 3/9 = 1/3

Formula fot n-th term is

an = 27 · (1/3)∧(n-1)

What is the equation of the line ?

Ronch [10]

Look at the picture.

The point-slope form:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

We have the points (-3, -3) and (2, 0). Substitute:

$m=\dfrac{0-(-3)}{2-(-3)}=\dfrac{3}{5}\\\\y-0=\dfrac{3}{5}(x-2)\qquad|\text{use distributive property}\\\\y=\dfrac{3}{5}x-\dfrac{6}{5}\qquad|\cdot5\\\\5y=3x-6\qquad|-5y\\\\0=3x-5y-6\qquad|+6\\\\3x-5y=6$

Answer:

point-slope form: $y=\dfrac{3}{5}(x-2)$

slope-intercept form: $y=\dfrac{3}{5}x-\dfrac{6}{5}$

standard form: $3x-5y=6$

Write the verbal sentence as an equation. Then solve.

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

$\frac{x}{-8} = 7$

-12x = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the type of problem that you just have to do a bunch of times until you get it right -- I don't think there's anything I can tell you that'll help you immediately. Ask for your teacher for more exercises of this sort or look it up online.

Good luck!
