Step-by-step explanation:

Initially, there's only 1 letter.

Tania sends the letter to 4 friends.

Each friend sends a letter to 4 more friends (4 × 4 = 16).

Each of those friends sends to 4 more friends (16 × 4 = 64).

The pattern is 1, 4, 16, 64, etc.

This is a geometric sequence.  The first term is 1 and each term is 4 times the previous term.

a₁ = 1

aₙ = 4 aₙ₋₁

The explicit formula is:

aₙ = 1 (4)ⁿ⁻¹

Answer: The graph is shown below

The solution to the system is (x,y) = (2,3)

=============================================================

Explanation:

To graph y = \frac{5}{2}x-2, we need two points. Generating any (x,y) point involves picking a random x value to find its paired y value. For instance, if you plugged in x = 0, you should get to y = -2 which is the y intercept. Then trying something like x = 2 will lead to y = 3. This line goes through (0,-2) and (2,3). This line is shown in red below.

The blue line is horizontal and goes through 3 on the y axis. Every point on this horizontal line has the same y coordinate of 3. The x value doesn't matter, so it's not part of the equation y = 3.

The intersection of the red and blue line is the solution to the system. That intersection occurs at (x,y) = (2,3). This means x = 2 and y = 3 pair up together to make both original equations true.

Since this system has at least one solution, we consider it a consistent system.

Find the distance between -6 - 8
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

2

Number line.

We start at -6 or -8.

If we start from -6, we will be going __ spaces to the left until we get to -8.

Or start from -8 and go __ spaces to the right until you get to -6.

Then count the spaces.

You'll get 2.
