Answer:

The correct option is B) Step 3 is incorrect and should be x=\frac{10}{8}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided equation.

6x-1=-2x+9

Step 1: Use addition property of equality.

8x-1=9

Step 2: Use addition property of equality.

8x=10

Step 3: Use Division property of equality.

x=\frac{10}{8}

Step 4: Now simplify.

x=\frac{5}{4}

Now, by comparing these steps with the provided image we can concluded that the step 3 is incorrect.

Thus, the correct option is B) Step 3 is incorrect and should be x=\frac{10}{8}.

Find the next two terms of the following sequence: 14, 38, 74, 122, 182, 254...
Bezzdna [24]
Let's find the difference between each number.
38-14=24
74-38=36
122-74=48
182-122=60
254-182=72
As you can tell, you're adding 12 to each difference before. The next difference would be 72+12=84. Let's add.
254+84=338
Now the next difference would be 84+12=96.
338+96=434
So, the next two terms are 338 and 434.

How do you find an explicit formula?
bazaltina [42]
If you can find an explicit formula for a sequence, you will be able to quickly and easily find any term in the sequence simply by replacing n with the number of the term you seek. An explicit formula designates the nth term of the sequence, as an expression of n (where n = the term's location).

Hat is the equation of the quadratic function with a vertex at (2,–25) and an x-intercept at (7,0)?
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

y = x² - 4x - 21

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola in vertex form is

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

Here (h, k) = (2, - 25), thus

y = a(x - 2)² - 25

To find a substitute (7, 0) into the equation

0 = a(7 - 2)² - 25 = a(5)² - 25 = 25a - 25 ( add 25 from both sides )

25a = 25 ( divide both sides by 25

a = 1, thus

y = (x - 2)² - 25 ← in vertex form

Expand and simplify

y = x² - 4x + 4 - 25

y = x² - 4x - 21 ← in standard form
