Answer:
sum = ∑[n=1,5] 4^(n-4)
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all, you need to be able to describe the n-th term.
Here, we have ...
term #: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
value: 4^-3, 4^-2, 4^-1, 4^0, 4^1
That is, the exponent of 4 is 4 less than the term number. So, the n-th term is 4^(n-4). The sum of the 5 terms shown is then ...
Answer: (an)(x)

Answer:
B. {16, 19, 20}
Step-by-step explanation:
The <em>triangle inequality</em> requires for any sides a, b, c you must have ...
a + b > c
b + c > a
c + a > b
The net result of those requirements are ...
- the sum of the two shortest sides must be greater than the longest side
- the length of the third side lies between the difference and sum of the other two sides
__
If we look at the offered side length choices, we see ...
A: 8+11 = 19 . . . not > 19; not a triangle
B: 16+19 = 35 > 20; could be a triangle
C: 3+4 = 7 . . . not > 8; not a triangle
D: 5+5 = 10 . . . not > 11; not a triangle
The side lengths {16, 19, 20} could represent the sides of a triangle.

<em>Additional comment</em>
The version of triangle inequality shown above ensures that a triangle will have non-zero area.
The alternative version of the triangle inequality uses ≥ instead of >. Triangles where a+b=c will look like a line segment--they will have zero area. Many authors disallow this case. (If it were allowed, then {8, 11, 19} would also be a "triangle.")
Slope is m= y2- y1 / x2- x1.
Billy flipped both where the numbers go, and in which order they should be in.
It should be -5-5 / -2-2 giving you zero (0).
