Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

-12 - (-8)

can also be seen as:

-12 - -8

Which would be the same as:

-12 + 8

(The minus signs cancel each other out, so it turns positive.)

and to solve:

-12 + 8 = -4

How do the graphs of y =1/x and y = 3/x – 4 compare?
Pie
The graphs of y =1/x and y = 3/x – 4 can be compared by saying that c<span>ompared to the graph of y =1/x , the graph of y =3/x – 4 is a vertical stretch by a factor of 3 and a translation of 4 units down. This can be seen clearly when you graph the functions on a x-y coordinate plane.</span>

Can someone help me with this quickly please.​
ELEN [110]

Answer:

See explaination

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is the number of desired outcomes over the total outcomes.

1) You want to find Oranges, so that is your desired outcome:

There are 4 oranges in the bowl.

Now sum up all the fruits to get the total:

9+4+7+3+6 = 29

Therefore you have 4/29

2) Same idea, count the peaches and put it over total:

3/29

3) This time, you still want to use the same idea, but its just your desired outcomes that have increased. So instead of just having one fruit, now you want to add the total of 2 fruits as your desired outcome.

(9+4)/29

= 13/29

4) To find the probability of a fruit other than a plum, you can use complementary counting. Since the maximum probability is one, we can find what we dont want, and the outcome of that subtracted from one must be the results that we want.

So a plum is 6/29

1-6/29 = 23/29

5) Same idea as what is used in problems 3 and 4, just a combination of the 2.

(4+3)/29

1-7/29

= 22/29

In a geometric sequence, the__<br> between consecutive terms is constant
kow [346]

Answer:

In a geometric sequence, the <u>ratio</u> between consecutive terms is constant.

Step-by-step explanation:

A geometric sequence is where you get from one term to another by multiplying by the same value. This value is known as the <u>constant ratio</u>, or <u>common ratio</u>. An example of a geometric sequence and it's constant ratio would be the sequence 4, 16, 64, 256, . . ., in which you find the next term by multiplying the previous term by four. 4 × 4 = 16, 16 × 4 = 64, and so on. So, in this sequence the constant <em>ratio </em>would be four.
