A1=2
a2=-8
a3=32
a4=-128

a2/a1=(-8)/2→a2/a1=-4
a3/a2=32/(-8)→a3/a2=-4
a4/a3=(-128)/32→a4/a3=-4

a2/a1=a3/a2=a4/a3=r=-4

an=a1*r^(n-1)
an=2*(-4)^(n-1)

The explicit rule for the nth term of the given sequence is an=2*(-4)^(n-1)

If i put a penny in a jar every day for a year how much money will i have
katovenus [111]
Hi there!

A year is 365 days, correct?
If we save our pennies up from January 1st to December 31st, you'd have 3 dollars (since 100 pennies is 1 dollar) and 65 pennies left over. If it was a leap year, however, you'd have 3 dollars and 66 cents. :)

Hope this helps! :D

What is the center of the hyperbola whose equation is (y+3)^2/81-(x-6)^2/89=1?
xxMikexx [17]

We have been given an equation of hyperbola \frac{(y+3)^2}{81}-\frac{(x-6)^2}{89}=1. We are asked to find the center of hyperbola.  

We know that standard equation of a vertical hyperbola is in form \frac{(y-k)^2}{b^2}-\frac{(x-h)^2}{a^2}=1, where point (h,k) represents center of hyperbola.

Upon comparing our given equation with standard vertical hyperbola, we can see that the value of h is 6.

To find the value of k, we need to rewrite our equation as:

\frac{(y-(-3))^2}{81}-\frac{(x-6)^2}{89}=1

Now we can see that value of k is -3. Therefore, the vertex of given hyperbola will be at point (6,-3) and option D is the correct choice.
