This is a geometric sequence of the form:
a(n)=(x+3)(-2x)^(n-1) because each term is -2x times the previous term...so
a(8)=(x+3)(-128x^7)
a(8)=-128x^8-384x^7

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term
2.1 Factoring 4y2-12y+9
The first term is, 4y2 its coefficient is 4 .
The middle term is, -12y its coefficient is -12 .
The last term, "the constant", is +9
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 4 • 9 = 36
Step-2 : Find two factors of 36 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -12 .
-36 + -1 = -37
-18 + -2 = -20
-12 + -3 = -15
-9 + -4 = -13
-6 + -6 = -12 That's it
Answer:
5%
Step-by-step explanation:
The question showing a growing function that commonly used in compound interest calculation. The formula for compound interest is:
A = P (1 +r) ^ t
A= amount of the balance after a period of t
P= principal, the initial money deposit
r= rate
t= time
The percent of balance increase should be represented by the rate(r). In this equation, the principal will be 130, (1+r) will be 1.05, and time will be x.
The value of rate (r) will be:
(1+r) = 1.05
r= 1.05-1= 0.05 = 5%
