Answer:

128

Step-by-step explanation:

As common ratio is 1/4 ; let the first four terms of the geometric series be :

x , 1 / 4 .x , (1 / 4)2 .x , (1 / 4)3 .x  or

x , x / 4 , x / 16 and  x / 64

Now there sum is  170 , hence

x + x / 4 + x / 16 +  x / 64 = 170 or

(64a + 16a + 4a + a ) / 64  = 170 or

85a / 64 = 170

a = 128

Hence first first term of the series is

128

Examine the linear table to find the slope, y-intercept, and write the equation for this linear relationship ​. NEED HELP PLEASE
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

y = \frac{4}{3} x + 17  

Step-by-step explanation:

The table shows a set of x and y values, thus showing a set of points we can use to find the equation.

1) First, find the slope by using two points and substituting their x and y values into the slope formula, \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}. I chose (-3, 13) and (0,17), but any two points from the table will work. Use them for the formula like so:

\frac{(17)-(13)}{(0)-(-3)} \\= \frac{17-13}{0+3} \\= \frac{4}{3}

Thus, the slope is \frac{4}{3}.

2) Next, identify the y-intercept. The y-intercept is where the line hits the y-axis. All points on the y-axis have a x value of 0. Thus, (0,17) must be the y-intercept of the line.

3) Finally, write an equation in slope-intercept form, or y = mx + b format. Substitute the m and b for real values.

The m represents the slope of the equation, so substitute it for \frac{4}{3}. The b represents the y-value of the y-intercept, so substitute it for 17. This will give the following answer and equation:

y = \frac{4}{3} x + 17
