we have that

−4+8−16+32−.....

a1=-2*(-2)-----> -4

a2=-4*(-2)-----> +8

a3=+8*(-2)-----> -16

a4=-16*(-2)----> +32

a5=+32*(-2)----> -64

a6=-64*(-2)-----> +128

a7=+128*(-2)-----> -256

The sum of the first 7 terms of the series is

<span>[a1+a2+a3+a4+a5+a6+a7]-----> [-4+8-16+32-64+128-256]-------> -172</span>

<span>
the answer is -172</span>

Which calculation will ALWAYS give a result greater than 1? A.5 × a number less than 1 B.4/9+ a fraction less than 12 C. 1 3/4 -
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

  C.  1 3/4 - (a fraction less than 3/4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Your number sense should be able to help you with this one.

A. 5 × 1/10 = 1/2, not a number greater than 1

B. 4/9 + 1/3 = 7/9, not a number greater than 1

C. 1 3/4 -1/2 = 1 1/4, a number greater than 1 (see below for more explanation)

D. 7/8 × 1/2 = 7/16, not a number greater than 1.

__

<em>More explanation</em>

Let x represent a number less than 3/4. Then we want to make sure that ...

  y = 1 3/4 - x

will be greater than 1.

Solving for x, we get ...

  x = 1 3/4 - y

Applying the requirement that x < 3/4, we have ...

  x < 3/4

  (1 3/4 -y) < 3/4

  1 3/4 < y + 3/4 . . . . . . add y

  1 < y . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 3/4

We see that the condition on x makes sure that y is always greater than 1.

The table represents the observed number of leaves y on x branches of a tree. Calculate the rate of change between 3 and 4 branc
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

<h2>25</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change of number of tree y on x branches of a tree is expressed as shown;

m = Δy/Δx where;

m is the rate of change

Δy is the change in number of leaves  between 3 and 4

Δx is change in number of branches  between 3 and 4

m = Δy/Δx = y₂-y₁/x₂-x₁

From table between 3 and 4, y₂ = 100, y₁ = 75, x₂ = 4, x₁ = 3

m = 100-75/4-3

m = 25/1

m = 25

<em>Hence the rate of change between 3 and 4 branches is 25</em>
