The formula for arithmetic sequence is given by:
an=a+(n-1)d
where:
an=nth term
a=first term
n=number of terms
thus our first term will be:
a1=8
a2=8+(2-1)(-6)=2
a3=8+(3-1)(-6)=-4
a4=8+(4-1)(-6)=-10
a5=8+(5-1)(-6)=-16
a5=-16
thus the sequence will be:
8,2,-4,-10,-16...

Hellllp meeeee aaaaa
drek231 [11]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

y = (-2/5)x + 1

By inspection of the equation, the slope of the line is -2/5 and the y-intercept is 1.

Therefore, we can immediately discount option B and D, as their y-intercepts are NOT 1.

Find the point where the line crosses the x-axis by setting the equation to 0 and solving for x:

0 = (-2/5)x + 1

⇒ -1 = (-2/5)x

⇒ -5 = -2x

⇒ x = 5/2

Therefore, the line of the function intersects the x-axis at x = 5/2 = 2.5

From inspection of the graphs, the line in option A intersects the x-axis at 2.5.  Therefore, this is the correct graph.
