What is the common difference between the elements of the arithmetic sequence below? –18, –22.5, –27, –31.5, –36

1 answer:

4 2

Answer 
Common difference = -4.5

Explanation. 
An arithmetic sequence is a sequence in which the next term is found by adding a constant to the current term. This constant is called the common difference.
If a, b, c, d, e, ….is an arithmetic sequence, then the common difference will be,
Common difference = b-a=c-b=d-c=e-d…..
Now the question above common difference is;
Common difference = (-22.5)-(-14)=-4.5

Write an equation in slope-intercept form for this line.

sineoko [7]

Answer:

y = $\frac{3}{2}$ x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = $\frac{3}{2}$ , then

y = $\frac{3}{2}$ x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 4, - 7 ) into the partial equation

- 7 = - 6 + c ⇒ c = - 7 + 6 = - 1

y = $\frac{3}{2}$ x - 1 ← equation of line

What term should be added to y2-14y to make it a perfect square trinomial?

Ksju [112]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the monomial y²-14y, in order to make the binomial a perfect square, we need to add a constant to the function using completing the square method.

To get the constant, we will multiply the coefficient of y by 1/2 and then square the resulting value.

- The coefficient of y is -14.

multiplying the coefficient of y by 1/2 will give -14/2 = -7

- squaring -7 will result in (-7)²

= 49

The constant that will be added to the binomial to make it a perfect square trinomial is 49
