Answer:

w = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

If the slope is 0, then this line will be horizontal.

This means that the y value will be the same for all points on the line.

Since we are given the point (3, 1), we know that the y value is 1. This means all other points on the line will have 1 as the y value.

So, w is equal to 1 because it is the y value in that ordered pair.

A plane is 24,000 feet above sea

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

A. -500

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope using rise over run (change in y / change in x)

Find the change in the y values (height of the plane):

24,000 - 18,000

= 6,000

Find the change in the x values (miles from the airport)

(60 - 72)

= -12

Divide 6000 by -12:

6000/-12

= -500

So, the slope of the plane's path is A. -500

In a certain constituency, there are 8 500 voters and

babymother [125]

First let's find how much is 15% of 8500 voters.

To do that, we can multiply 15 by 8500 and then divide by 100.

Work: 15 x 8500 = 127500

127500/100 = 1275

Therefore 15 percent of 8500 is 1275.

Then, we subtract 1275 from 8500 to find the amount of people who did vote.

8500 - 1275 = 7,225

Thus, 7,225 people voted while 1,275 people did not.

A geometric sequence is shown below.

mestny [16]

Answer:

An explicit representation for the nth term of the sequence:

$f_n=-\frac{1}{2}\cdot \:4^{n-1}$

It means, option (B) should be true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the geometric sequence

$-\frac{1}{2},\:-2,\:-8,\:-32,...$

A geometric sequence has a constant ratio, denoted by 'r', and is defined by

$f_n=f_1\cdot r^{n-1}$

Determining the common ratios of all the adjacent terms

$\frac{-2}{-\frac{1}{2}}=4,\:\quad \frac{-8}{-2}=4,\:\quad \frac{-32}{-8}=4$

As the ratio is the same, so

r = 4

Given that f₁ = -1/2

substituting r = 4, and f₁ = -1/2 in the nth term

$f_n=f_1\cdot r^{n-1}$

$f_n=-\frac{1}{2}\cdot \:4^{n-1}$

Thus, an explicit representation for the nth term of the sequence:

$f_n=-\frac{1}{2}\cdot \:4^{n-1}$

It means, option (B) should be true.
