Answer:
17 terms
Step-by-step explanation:
131072 = 2^17
8 = 2^3
4 = 2^2
2 = 2^1
Apparently, the sequence is powers of 2 from 17 down to 1, so there are 17 terms in the sequence.
Answer:
the cat weighs 21 pounds.
the dog weighs 43 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
dog = 3x-20 = x + 22
cat = x
3x-20 = x+22
3x = x+42 (add 20 to both sides)
2x = 42 (subtract x from both sides)
x = 21
You can try them out and see which one works.
a: f(2) = f(1) +6 = 5+6 = 11 . . . . . . not this one
b: f(1) = f(2) -6 = -1-6 = -7 . . . . . . not this one (5 ≠ -7)
c: f(2) = f(1) - 6 = 5 - 6 = -1 . . . . . this gives the right f(2)
d: f(2 = -6(f(1) = -6(5) = -30 . . . . not this one
_____
The appropriate choice is ...
... f(n +1) = f(n) - 6
— — — — —
You can also recognize that the next term is 6 less than the current one, so f(n+1) = f(n) - 6, which corresponds to the 3rd selection.
Answer:
Slope (m) = 3, y-intercept (b) = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to write the equation in y = mx + b.
To do this, add 3x to both sides.
y = 3x - 1 is your result.
Now, we have everything we need to do determine our slope and y-intercept in just this equation alone.
Remember, m = slope and b = y-intercept.
In this equation:
m = 3
b = -1
So your slope is 3, and your y-intercept is -1
Divide 7% into $240 dollars and hat should get you your answer.
hope this helps!
