Answer:
12. -11
13. 2
Step-by-step explanation:
12. First recall the order of operations (BEDMAS): Brackets, Exponents, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction
For question 12 there is a division and its priority is before other operations in the equation so you must divide 16/-2 first which gives you -8.
From there because addition and subtraction is on the same level of order, you would do the question straight as it is shown (but replace 16/-2 with -8.
Your new equation is -10-8+7 = -11
13. follow the same as above using BEDMAS. It may help to look at it with additional brackets: ((-68)/(-4)) + ((5 x (-3))
- keep in mind there’s an addition between the two
Division and multiplication is on the same level in BEDMAS so first divide -68/-4 = 17
Second multiply 5 x -3 = -15
Now you can combine the two answers using addition: 17 + (-15) = 2
Answer:
A. A(n) = 150 • (0.74)^n–1 ; 33.29 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a geometric sequence.
a%5B1%5D=1.5m=150cm, r=0.74
The formula is
a%5Bn%5D=a%5B1%5Dr%5E%28n-1%29
Just substitute a1 = 150cm and r = 0.74
a%5Bn%5D=150%280.74%29%5E%28n-1%29
That's the rule.
For the second part, substitute n = 6
cm.
Next time, please list the possible answer choices. Without them, all I can do is to attempt this problem without having those choices as guidelines.
I must assume that your expression x^4-5x+3/x^2+7 actually meant:
5x + 3
x^4 - ---------------
x^2 + 7
and I assume that this result was one of the several possible answer choices.
